Text message check in was the easiest thing in the world, just pulled up and lodge door was 5 feet from the car. Clean and warm inside, couldn't ask for more for a quick night stay.
This was perfect for our family for two nights. Everything we expected was in place, our hosts were responsive when we reached out. Short walk to the lake, short drive to the ski slopes and tubing hills. Exactly what we needed.
Our hosts Nina & Jim were warm and welcoming. The Inn is a picture perfect mountain retreat. Our room was wonderfully appointed, a great Franklin stove, super comfortable bed, very cozy. The breakfast was healthy- the overnight oats - Yummy, homemade banana bread - outstanding, high tech coffee machine to more than satisfy the coffee aficionado and the hot chocolate - Lucious. If you’re going to Donner Lake, your first choice should be the Donner Lake Inn…!!
