Take a much-needed vacation down to California for an unforgettable trip! You'll be placed conveniently by Donner Memorial State Park, where a beautiful shimmering lake awaits you. You're also located in Tahoe Donner, which has fantastic amenities, including golf, tennis, a ski hill less than two miles away, a gym, and swimming pools. In winter months, bundle up and enjoy downhill skiing at Palisades, Alpine Meadows, Sugar Bowl, or Northstar - all within 16 miles from home.
Return after a fun-filled day out on the town and step in through the front door and into the wide and spacious living area, complete with comfortable furnishings for you and your friends to relax on. With a true cabin-like feel, you're sure to feel right at home. Cook a delicious meal in the full kitchen, equipped with stainless steel appliances for your convenience. You'll have the choice of warming up beside two fireplaces, so throw a blanket on and huddle up by the fire with a nice warm cup of cocoa. Gather around the sectional and stream your favorite movie with some popcorn! Once the night begins to settle, hop into some pajamas and slip under the covers for a good night's sleep.
