We are proud to offer a true piece of Donner Lake history with this charming original cabin, perfectly situated in one of the Sierra Nevada's most iconic and beloved destinations. Donner Lake is a four-season gem — offering crystal-clear swimming, kayaking, and paddleboarding in the summer, and front-row access to world-class skiing and snowshoeing in the winter, all just minutes from your door. This classic cabin has been thoughtfully refreshed with updated cabinetry in the kitchen as well as in the main floor bathroom. All while preserving every bit of its original character. The living room centers around a beautiful brick hearth with a thermostatically controlled gas fireplace — perfect for cozy mountain evenings. The layout offers flexibility with one bedroom and full bath on the main level, and a open bedroom upstairs. Step outside to the spacious front deck, ideal for outdoor dining and relaxing, with peeking views of Donner Lake. Convenient ski storage makes this the ideal base camp for Tahoe's legendary slopes. Two outbuildings provide exceptional storage for all your gear — the first houses the water heater alongside generous storage space, while the second is dedicated storage, ideal for all the toys and equipment that come with Sierra Nevada living. Sold unfurnished and ready for you to make it your own.

Donner Lake, located between Donner Pass Road and Interstate 80, is a lakeside and mountain Truckee neighborhood with a public beach and a pine-lined shoreline. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around Donner Memorial State Park and the adjacent lakeside pullouts, where picnic tables, trailheads, and boat traffic set the tempo. Cabin-style homes and low-slung lake houses mix with newer builds, many oriented toward water views and winter snowpack. West End Beach anchors warm-weather lake days, while the Donner Lake Rim Trail frames the edge with steady climbs and forest shade. Donner Memorial State Park adds museum-grade local history alongside campgrounds and shoreline paths. Donner Ski Ranch and Tahoe Donner Cross Country bring a winter rhythm close to the lake.
