Zephyr by AvantStay | Stylish Frame w/ Access To Tahoe Donner
Welcome to Zephyr, an AvantStay home!
With an open floor plan that includes 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms, this ultra-charming, modified A-frame home accommodates up to 6 of your favorite people. The comfortable living room, burning wood stove, and plush furniture amplify the cabin’s warm and cozy aesthetic. A grill and office area are added features that allow guests to have fun while also staying on top of work if needed. This light-filled home is just minutes from Downtown Truckee, which means guests have easy access to shops and restaurants. With outdoor adventure all around, you'll love this mountain modern escape!
Each home is provided with Short Term Tenant cards that allow access to Tahoe Donner amenities. Guests have access to public amenities, including the Downhill Ski Resort, Cross Country Ski Center, Snowplay area, Golf Course, Bikeworks, Equestrian Center, and on-site restaurants. Access to private amenities such as the Beach Club Marina, Trout Creek Recreation Center, Northwoods Pool, and Tennis and Pickleball Center requires a valid Short Term Tenant Card and payment of daily access fees at the time of entry. One card is required per person, per day, for guests age 3 and older.
The recently renovated Tahoe Donner Ski Lodge enhances the family-friendly ski experience with modern facilities, improved dining options, and expanded lesson programs for all ages. Known for its gentle slopes and welcoming atmosphere, it’s the perfect place for beginners and families to enjoy a day on the snow together.
