About this house rental

PLEASE NOTE:
THE TOWN OF TRUCKEE RECENTLYIMPLEMENTED SHORT-TERM-RENTAL RULES THAT LIMITS THE MAXIMUM NUMBER OF OCCUPANTS OVER 12 YEARS OF AGE TO 10


you are surrounded by full-time residents who work while you are on vacation. Please respect the town-wide quiet hours of 10pm to 7am. If you are cited by the police for violation of this, you agree your rental ends immediately with no refund of remaining rent and you forfeit your security deposit.

Large (3,000 sqft) home which backs onto the Tahoe Donner ski hill. Forget packing the car and gearing up at the ski slope, simply change at home, go out the back door, strap your on skis and and within 2 minutes you can be on the ski slope. However, because of the slight slope and some traversing required, snowboarders are not able to "ski-in ski-out." The ski area is very small but is a great place for beginners and when lift lines at the bigger resorts are 30+ minutes the longest lines at Tahoe Donner tend to be about 2 to 5 minutes.

In Summer, we are one of the few homes in Tahoe Donner with air conditioning!
We have beds for 14. The Town of Truckee recently implemented Short-Term-Rental rules that limits the maximum number of occupants over 12 years of age to 10. This is important and you will be responsible for paying any Tahoe Donner and Truckee fines as a result of exceeding this number.

This home is at just over 7,000 feet in elevation and is not one of the 'lower' Tahoe Donner homes. There are few trees around it and this enables the expansive views. In addition, sometimes on clear nights we lie down on the back deck for awesome views of the night sky.

Tahoe Donner is a year-round resort located in the historic town of Truckee, California. In addition to being able access the Tahoe Donner ski area from the backyard, there are many recreational opportunities of the Lake Tahoe region.

Walk just a quarter mile up the street while treating yourself to the amazing views from Skislope Way and you will arrive at Tahoe Donner's 35 miles of hiking trails. The extensive network of trails provides fantastic views and a great cardio workout.

Golfers be sure to check out the Tahoe Donner golf course--the highest elevation course in Tahoe, known for having the best greens in the region.

Within Tahoe Donner you will find The Pub, The Lodge, and Pizza on the Hill. In Truckee, you will find amazing dining and shopping in a historic setting.

Located on the ground floor of our mountain home is our 'dorm' room with three bunkbeds and a game room with foosball and a large-screen TV. There is also a separate washer and a dryer. On the main floor are three bedrooms--one eastern king, one queen and one with two twin beds. There is a wide open, family style great room with open kitchen and dining area. The great room opens to the back deck perfect for BBQing, relaxing, and eating. Upstairs is a loft with a trundle bed and a computer desk. The home also is equipped with Wi-Fi.

Please note this house is at about 7,000 feet in elevation. If it snows you will need to have AWD or 4WD to get to it and (as with many of the homes at the higher elevations in Tahoe Donner) during snowstorms it is possible for the road and/or driveway to become temporarily impassible until they are cleared.

IMPORTANT: This is NOT a party house, and we strictly enforce the rental agreement. You may not have more than the reserved number of guests on the property at any time (day or night). Both the Town of Truckee and the Tahoe Donner Association forbid loud noise, or music after 10 pm and before 7 am. This is absolutely a NON-smoking property, no exceptions. Violations of the rental agreement will result in forfeiture of the security deposit and could result in substantial legal liability, so please read it carefully. Violations are a breach of your rental agreement and can result in termination of your stay with no refunds. Sorry, I understand that 95% of you don't need me to say this.

Check in time is 5pm. Checkout time is 11am. At various times during the year we have back-to-back rentals and the cleaners need every bit of six hours to clean (now 8 to 10 hours with additional COVID-19 cleaning procedures.) If you want to ensure early check in or late check out, please reserve an extra day on either end of your reservation :)

We supply linens and basic kitchen stuff like pots, pans, dishes, flatware. We try our best to strike a good balance between keeping fees reasonable and making sure everyone has a great visit to the cabin.

ALL people count, so include all in your reservation. This includes infants and children and anyone who will be on the property even for a short time during the day.

We had a perfect stay at Omar's home in Truckee. The home was perfect for our extended family and was even better than described. The home is sooooooo clean! Omar was incredibly responsive and helpful. There was plenty of private space, but an equally wonderful amount of space for us to gather as a family. The area is quiet and lovely. There were even a few deer finding shelter under the back deck when we were there! This is by the far the nicest VRBO we have stayed in. Absolutely 10 out of 10!

Property is beautiful. First kitchen to have everything I needed in a holiday rental. Owner was responsive and helpful with minor issues we encountered. Couldn’t ask for more.

Very large, well-appointed house in Tahoe Donner with a game room allowing kids to entertain themselves. We recommend this property. Communication was continuous and complete.

This is our second time renting this home and we love it. Omar is a very responsive and helpful host. We had two families (7 kids) and there is lots to do in the home, and it's just steps away from the slopes. We'll rent again!

This was really a great house with plenty of room for two families of four (four kids 6 to 10) and grandma and grandpa to enjoy. Access was simple by having the garage door opener on an app, it was all we used to access the house our entire stay. One day we got rained in, but there were plenty of games, reading material (all nicely categorized) and TV options to keep our entire group entertained. The next day it dumped snow and there was plenty of space outdoors to enjoy it. We're a family of snowboarders, so we couldn't exactly ride out the back door, but the nearest run was less then a five minute walk on packed snow from the rear deck. The house has plenty of room for large groups to stretch out and the views were awesome. We did have a couple of small issues, but the host/owner was always responsive and none of it really negatively impacted our stay. As others have mentioned, you'll need to bring all of your cooking supplies like oil, syrup, salt/pepper and orther spices, but there are plenty of open drawers and cabinets to store your stuff in. There was also plenty of pots/pans/plates/cups/cooking utensils (bring your own wine glasses).

Great Ski-in Ski-out Tahoe Donner House
Great Ski-in Ski-out Tahoe Donner House
Great place for a couple of families to ski Tahoe Donner! Awesome house, plenty of space, clean, warm, and amazing views across the valley to Mt Rose from the kitchen! Ski-in-ski-out, except not for new or very young skiers. My 3 year old could not ski-in/out without significant help from me, especially with 8-12" of new snow, and on the way in. My 6year old was able to do it, but not without considerable effort on the way in during a powder day. That being said, we'd definitely stay again!

We had a excellent stay at the Cabin, lots of space for everyone to spread out and beautiful spot. One shower issue which was quickly remedied. Can’t wait to go back and stay again

We had 8 people looking for comfortable, ski in/ski out lodging. This place was perfect. It is large, bright, well-located, comfortable, and immaculately clean. You can walk outside, strap on skis and in a minute you are on one of Tahoe Donner's easy (green) slopes. The kitchen has all the cookware and table setting you will need (but bring everything you will need to cook with, including salt, pepper, spices and oil). There are lots of chairs, beds, sofas, televisions, bathrooms, towels - even shelves full of a wide range of interesting books, all organized by subject matter. You feel like you are stepping into someone's home, but without the clutter and idiosyncrasies that sometimes come along. The owner was very responsive, even texting us ahead of our check-in time to let us know the place was available early. We didn't need additional help, but he seemed like he would have been very responsive had it been otherwise. Thank you for making our weekend a good one.
