The Space:
Whether you're visiting for a winter ski trip, summer mountain adventure, or relaxing Tahoe getaway, Donner Adventure Lodge gives larger families and groups plenty of room to spread out and enjoy Truckee together.
With 4 bedrooms, 2.5 bathrooms, 9 beds, and two separate living areas, the home is especially well suited for extended families, multiple families traveling together, and group retreats. The home is allowed up to 10 guests plus up to 5 additional children under 13, giving families with younger children added flexibility.
The main living area features vaulted ceilings, comfortable gathering space, a gas fireplace, and a large 65" smart HDTV. A second living area provides another place to relax, play games, or let the kids hang out with the PlayStation 5. TVs are also provided in every bedroom.
The fully equipped kitchen has a gas range, generous counter space, island seating for 4, and everything you need to prepare a family breakfast or holiday meal. The dining table seats 6, with additional seating at the kitchen island.
The sleeping arrangement is particularly flexible for larger groups. Two upper-level bedrooms each feature a queen bed, while the lower-level bedrooms offer an impressive bunk setup with four queen beds in one room and a twin-over-full bunk plus futon in the other. The bunk rooms give kids and larger groups plenty of space while allowing adults to spread out across the other bedrooms.
Outside, enjoy the peaceful wooded backyard surrounded by tall pines, along with a large deck and propane BBQ. There's no home directly behind the property, creating a private mountain setting to enjoy after a day on the trails or slopes.

All the basic amenities included! Close enough to town. Only 45 mins or so from Reno. Loved the garage access, bc if you park outside your car gets covered in tree sap. Big TVs & WiFi.
We had plenty of room with 6 adults and 2 children. The kitchen was well equipped. It was easy to get to. Close to shopping and ski resorts. The kids had a blast on a small slope in the back of the cabin. A sliding door went directly to the great play area at ground level. Beautiful interior and nice extras like small shampoo and coffee. We would definitely go again. The six year old said he definitely wants that cabin next year.
