AMENITY ACCESS
We provide guest passes, which give you access & discounts on Tahoe Donner Resort amenities including a downhill ski, cross-country ski area, gym, pools, golf, sledding hill, tennis and more (see more info on Tahoe Donner amenities below).
TAHOE DONNER AMENITIES- Check TD website for latest info.
Each stay includes Tahoe Donner Amenity Access GUEST Cards which Offer You A Discount On Day Ski Passes To Tahoe Donner Downhill Ski Area! These same passes gain you access to Trout Creek Recreation Center (Gym / Pool / Hot Tub / Sauna / Ping Pong), and the Private East End of Donner Lake Beach. HOA Amenity Entry to Trout Creek and/or Private East End of Donner Lake is $16/person/day/site payable onsite. One payment, and you have access All Day. Next to Trout Creek Rec Center is our favorite restaurant "The Lodge", and directly next to that is Z Market (Convenience Store).
GUEST ACCESS
Full Access as it is one story. Enter through the mud room facing the garage.
You will not have access to the separate detached garage which we use for storage when we're not in Truckee.
Unlike a lot of homes in Truckee, this home has a flat street, driveway, and EASY entryway, *without* a huge flight of stairs leading up to the home. This allows simple access year round without having to shovel stairs to get into the home, or haul groceries up big flights of stairs.
Winter in Tahoe is icy and snowy! Strongly recommend AWD vehicles during winter months, and keeping an eye on the weather.
The street and driveway both get plowed. The driveway accomodates 3 cars.

About the host
Hosted by Kelly Johnson

Hi, we’re Kelly and Jesse! We're based in Truckee, California (by Lake Tahoe). Before ending up in this magical place, we spent the prior 7 years living and working around the world.
We have stayed in countless AirBnBs around the world, so we know what it means to be a good host and also what guests expect -- we're sure you'll enjoy your stay!

Why they chose this property
Tahoe Donner is a dream! With your rental you'll have 2 guest cards which each provide access for 4 people to enjoy the amenities, such as fitness center with hot tub, sauna, steam room, free weights, lap pool, etc. There's also a new climbing gym opening just down the road (High Altitude).
Private street that make you really feel like you're in the middle of the Sierras (which you are!). Go for a walk in the neighborhood, hike the nearby trails. or head to one of the trendy Truckee restaurants or bars all in under 10mins from here. Easy access to 6 different mountain resorts (Olympic Valley, Alpine Meadows, Northstar, Boreal, Sugarbowl, Tahoe Donner are all within 10-25 mins).
Also less than 10mins to Donner Lake which is magnificent in the summer (particularly on a paddleboard or kayak!), not to mention the world-class mountain biking trails in the area. This is the perfect place to combine work and play!
