2BR Truckee Cabin w/ Mnt Views/ Hikes / 10 min Donner Lake / 5 min to Downtown

Escape to this cozy 2-bedroom Truckee cabin where mountain charm meets comfort. From the crackling wood fireplace to the nostalgic record player, every detail invites you to unwind and feel at home - because this truly is the owners’ second home, designed with love and warmth.

Perfectly located near Tahoe’s best attractions:
• 15 min to Donner Lake
• Close to Northstar, Palisades & Boreal
• 30 min to Lake Tahoe

𝐋𝐈𝐕𝐈𝐍𝐆 𝐑𝐎𝐎𝐌 – 𝐂𝐨𝐳𝐲 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐈𝐧𝐯𝐢𝐭𝐢𝐧𝐠

𝐓𝐕-𝐅𝐑𝐄𝐄 𝐙𝐎𝐍𝐄

This cabin is intentionally TV-free, offering a true disconnect experience. The owners designed this space as a personal retreat to unwind, recharge, and enjoy the sounds of nature instead.

𝐋𝐎𝐂𝐀𝐓𝐈𝐎𝐍

Located just minutes from top ski resorts - Northstar, Palisades, and Boreal - plus only 15 minutes to Donner Lake and 30 minutes to Lake Tahoe. The cabin also features stunning mountain views right from the living room.

Whether you’re seeking a snowy winter retreat or a serene summer mountain escape, this cabin offers the ideal base for adventure and relaxation alike.

Please note: A short set of outdoor steps is required to access the home, and the steps do not have a handrail. Guests with limited mobility may want to take this into consideration when booking.
The vacation home is heated and features a kitchen, 1.5 bathrooms, and a patio, and there's space to spread out with 2 bedrooms. Other standard amenities include a washing machine, a fireplace, and an electric kettle.
