About this cabin rental


Welcome to The Ralston Mountain Retreat, - a quiet, roomy 3 bedroom, 2.5 bathroom cabin with a loft for overflow guests in Tahoe Donner. It's located in one of the top ski towns in America, Truckee, CA. Easy access to many major Tahoe ski resorts for the winter and a private Marina/Beach club in the summer!

The main living area includes a fully equipped kitchen open to the dining area and living room. There is counter seating, as well as a dining area with seating for six to eight (10 if you squeeze). The living room is wide open with high vaulted ceilings and full-length windows offering lots of light with great sun exposure.
The front door is accessed through a covered walkway (perfect for snowy days and all your gear) or directly from the garage to the lower bedrooms. Upstairs is the living room, large kitchen, half-bath, and primary bedroom with a full bath and walk-in closet. Downstairs are two more bedrooms with a shared second bath.

On-site amenities include TV/DVD/Cable/Phone and high speed wireless internet. There is a woodstove in the living room for a cozy evening with friends. Newer furnace provides central heating with two heating zones to ensure comfort both upstairs and downstairs. The primary bedroom has a King bed, walk-in closet, and a full bathroom with shower/tub. Downstairs there are two bedrooms: one with a Queen bed; and guest room (the kids room) with two bunk beds and a queen. The guest rooms share a full bathroom with a shower/tub combo and single sink. In addition to the guest rooms, there is a loft overlooking the living room for additional sleeping on pads or just for some fun fort games.
The Ralston Mountain Retreat is only about one and a half miles to the Tahoe Donner downhill ski area. Tahoe Donner is a wonderful, mountain resort community with its own private downhill ski area, a fantastic cross country ski center, a sledding hill, small market/deli, and Recreation Center with all the workout spa and fun amenities.

The Recreation Center offers hot tubs, heated pool, fitness center, saunas, health spa, tennis courts, downhill and cross country ski resorts, equestrian center, Golf Club with 18-hole Champion course and driving range, a public restaurant (The Lodge at Tahoe Donner), and a private beach and marina on Donner Lake. In the winter there is also a sledding hill for inner tubing! Tahoe Donner is conveniently situated at the upper west end of Truckee and is just minutes to downtown shopping and restaurants. Ski area resorts including North Star at Tahoe, Palisade, Sugar Bowl, Boreal Ridge, Soda Springs, Donner Ski Ranch, and Royal Gorge Cross Country Center are just a short 15-25 minutes away.

Your rental of The Ralston Mountain Retreat includes access cards for the Tahoe Donner Recreation Center resident amenities for a nominal charge per person.

The driveway can hold up to 4 cars. There is a 2 car garage. A snow removal service will clear the drive way any time there is significant snowfall. The backyard is slightly sloped making for a great “ at home” sledding hill for the kids! Hot Cocoa courtesy of Mom and Dad!

A brother, a cousin, and a nephew stayed here for a family reunion. Aside from an initial difficulty unlocking the door (the electronic key pad is dark until you press it, so they didn't realize it was there), they very much enjoyed their stay. The house has a nice feel to it,and the neighborhood is a beautiful mountain setting, that's convenient to shopping and to the highways.

The property is very nice. Chris is extremely organized and communicated well with us throughout. The house is well-stocked and kept extremely clean. We'd rent with Chris again.

Very good neighborhood. There was snow around here although it wasn’t in the lower places. Glacier way trailhead is only a few minutes drive away for snow play and hiking. Safeway is few minutes from the house as well. Hosts were responsive and accommodating. We felt very welcome. Thank you!

Perfect place for us to stay with our family and 2 dogs. Close to Donner Lake to take the jet skis out. Hosts were excellent communicators and the house is spacious and very well equipped. We will be using this VRBO often in the future for winter and summer travel.
