Donner Creekside Cabin

Located in the highly desirable west shore of Donner Lake this quaint cabin has all of the charm Tahoe has to offer. Skiing at local resorts, shopping and dining in historic downtown Truckee, or hiking and biking on world class trails are all out your back door. Cozy up next to the fireplace or relax in the hot tub after a long day of adventures. Or just enjoy and play in the snow outside your front door. This one of a kind property backs up to 6 acres of undeveloped land with Donner Creek running through it. The cabin allows plenty of privacy while still being conveniently located within walking distance to a neighborhood cafe. It is truly a special place!

Cosy cabin in a great location
We really enjoyed our time in the cabin and we hope to come back for a longer stay later this year. The cabin was a perfect size for us and was filled with sunlight through all the windows. The location is fantastic in a quiet neighborhood and right next to a beautiful creek. It was very clean and had pretty much everything you would need to cook a meal.

Fantastic Getaway
The Cabin was everything VRBO had listed, and the owners were always available for any questions we had. A super quiet neighborhood less than a half mile from Donner Lake with hiking trails all around. Couldn’t have enjoyed a better weekend anywhere else. Can’t wait to come back!

Charming Cabin in a Great Location
This is such a sweet and comfortable cabin. We loved how it was nestled in the trees and you could hear the creek rushing by. It's an easy walk to Donner Lake and 15 minute drive to Sugar Bowl. Worked perfectly for our family of 4. Britta was very kind and communicative.

Wonderful family cabin
This was a perfect winter cabin for our family of four. There is a bathroom and shower on both levels, washer and dryer, and enough pots and pans to prepare simple meals. Plenty of towels, kitchen and bath tissues. Large outdoor deck and nice views from every window. Wifi is fine for work and streaming. Host is very responsive over text. Neighborhood is very quiet and peaceful. DSR and Sugar Bowl are less than 15 minutes away. We really enjoyed our stay here and look forward to visiting again.

Winter Cabin Getaway
Overall a great experience. Details as listed are accurate. Location was great. And there are little details that were excellent touches. A giant igloo in the backyard to play in as well as lots of snow toys to play with. Great for a couple or a family getaway. With the winter time and mid-week the surrounding cabins were empty which made for a nice secluded getaway. Definitely will be looking to head back and dealing with Britta again!
