Set back from the road for added peace and quiet, this home offers really nice lake views and a warm, laid-back ambiance that perfectly captures Donner Lake’s unique charm. Inside, the modern kitchen features sleek stainless-steel appliances, creating an ideal space for relaxed gatherings. The cozy living area, anchored by a new pellet stove fireplace, invites you to unwind after a day exploring the lake or nearby trails. Step outside, and you’re just a short walk from beloved local favorites like the public docks, Donner Memorial State Park, Sticks Market, and Donner Lake Kitchen. With quick access to Highway 80, you’re minutes away from all Truckee has to offer, and close to Sugar Bowl, Palisades, and Northstar resorts.

Optional membership to the Donner Lake’s West End Owners Beach further enhances the lake experience with exclusive beach access. Offered furnished and without any HOA restrictions, this home is your chance to embrace the fun, relaxed lifestyle of Donner Lake.
