About this property

Cozy Tahoe Donner Cabin | Deck & Fireplace

  • A cozy, practical 3-bedroom Tahoe Donner cabin designed for families, couples, and small groups looking for an easy Truckee mountain stay.

    Sleeping Setup
    Primary bedroom with queen bed, en suite bath, and deck access
    Second bedroom with queen bed
    Third bedroom with two twin beds, ideal for kids or friends
    Twin air mattress available for flexible sleeping
    Sleeps up to 8 guests total

    The layout works well for families, small groups, and longer shoulder-season stays where everyone needs a comfortable place to settle in.

    The main living area is built for quiet mountain downtime after a day outside.
    Woodstove for cozy fall and winter evenings
    Comfortable seating for group hangouts
    Peaceful forest views
    Two-car garage access, with one side set up with a foosball table

    Outdoor Living
    Step out onto a private deck surrounded by trees.
    Outdoor dining table with umbrella
    BBQ grill with propane included
