Year round fun awaits at Bernese's Bungalow! This 4 bedroom, 2 bath home is located in the lower half of Tahoe Donner, only 10 minutes from downtown Truckee and Donner Lake, and 20 minutes to all major ski resorts and north Lake Tahoe.

Enter the home through the front door and mud room into the main living space. The great room area offers two sitting areas; one centered around the gas fireplace and another around the flat screen tv with a dvd player and streaming device. Other highlights include updated hardwood floors, a remodeled kitchen and dining for 6. A back door from the dining space leads to a large a sunny deck, equipped with a gas bbq and outdoor furniture (summer only for the deck). Down the hall on the main floor, a shared bath with bathtub/shower combo and a bedroom are offered. The bedroom is furnished with a queen size bed, desk and full size closet.

Upstairs you'll find the main bedroom floor and additional bathroom. One king and one queen bedroom both offer lots of windows and are on opposite ends of the floor. In the middle of the floor is the shared bath with bathtub/shower combo and double vanity sinks, and a spacious bunk room with two twin bunks and plenty of floor space for kids to hang out.
The garage fits one subaru or similar size vehicle, and you can access the home with the key pad for easy access during storms.

Please remember that living in the mountains and staying in a private home means that there are some things we cannot control. For example, weather and harsh conditions have knocked out Wifi and the power before. While these instances are rare, we please ask that you are patient as these are things that we unfortunately cannot control. While we will try to accommodate all requests, we handle refunds for situations like this (power outages, appliances breaking, etc.) on a case by case basis.

We never left the house! It was warm and spacious for our group. The backyard was great for snow play. The rugs and blankets were not clean.
