The location strikes the perfect balance between privacy and convenience, making it an ideal base for families, couples, and adventure-seekers alike.
Life on the golf course brings a unique charm to your stay.

You can enjoy morning coffee while watching early golfers pass by or unwind in the evening as the sun sets over the fairway.
Just minutes from the home, The Lodge Restaurant & Pub offers some of Truckee’s best dining in a warm alpine setting. With handcrafted cocktails, a thoughtful wine list, and a seasonal menu made from locally sourced ingredients, it’s a perfect spot for everything from casual lunches to cozy après-ski dinners. The outdoor seating area is especially inviting on summer evenings.
Tahoe Donner truly shines as a four-season recreational community. In the winter, guests can enjoy the family-friendly Tahoe Donner Downhill Ski Area or explore the vast network of cross-country ski and snowshoe trails nearby. When the snow melts, summer transforms the area into a playground of hiking, biking, horseback riding, and lakeside lounging. The private Beach Club Marina on Donner Lake offers paddleboarding, swimming, and relaxed afternoons by the water.
A short drive brings you to historic downtown Truckee, where boutique shops, artisan galleries, cafés, and restaurants line the charming main street. It’s the perfect place to stroll, explore, or enjoy a meal after a day of adventure.
For those looking to hit the slopes, the location is a true advantage. Northstar California is just 12 miles away, while Palisades Tahoe sits about 16 miles from the home, giving you quick access to some of the most iconic skiing and snowboarding terrain in the region.
13186 Ski View Loop offers a blend of mountain tranquility and outdoor accessibility that is hard to beat. Whether you’re seeking a relaxing retreat or an active getaway filled with exploration, this neighborhood places the best of Tahoe Donner and Truckee right at your fingertips, creating a perfect basecamp for every season.
Getting Around:
Getting Around – 13186 Ski View Loop, Tahoe Donner
Your cabin is ideally located in the heart of Tahoe Donner, offering quick access to everything Truckee and the surrounding Tahoe region have to offer. No matter the season, getting around from this home is straightforward, scenic, and designed for convenience.
Personal Vehicle – The Most Reliable Option
Most guests choose to explore the area by car, as it provides the most flexibility for visiting Truckee, Donner Lake, North Lake Tahoe, and all nearby ski resorts. In summer, the roads are clear and the drives are especially beautiful along Donner Pass Road and Highway 89. In winter, a four-wheel-drive or all-wheel-drive vehicle is strongly recommended due to snow and routine chain controls on surrounding highways. Caltrans frequently enforces winter driving requirements during storms, particularly on Interstate 80. Free parking is available in the driveway for multiple vehicles.
Tahoe Donner Winter Shuttle
During the winter season and major holidays, Tahoe Donner typically operates a community shuttle. This is a convenient option for reaching Tahoe Donner Downhill Ski Resort, the Cross Country Center, Trout Creek Recreation Center, and The Lodge Restaurant without driving. Shuttle routes and schedules vary seasonally, so it is best to review Tahoe Donner’s winter shuttle map for current details.
Biking in the Summer Months
When the weather warms up, biking becomes a great way to travel locally. Tahoe Donner features a large network of multi-use trails along with bike-friendly roads that lead to Trout Creek Recreation Center, the Northwoods Clubhouse, The Lodge Restaurant, and other neighborhood amenities. Experienced riders can also enjoy the scenic trip down to Donner Lake. E-bike rentals are available in downtown Truckee, and bike storage is offered at many local facilities.
Walking and Hiking
The neighborhood is very pedestrian-friendly, making it enjoyable to walk to The Lodge, the Golf Course, or nearby trailheads. Guests frequently take morning or evening strolls along the quiet, scenic streets surrounding the cabin.
Taxi and Rideshare Services
Uber, Lyft, and local taxi companies such as Tahoe Truckee Limo and High Sierra Taxi operate in the region, though availability can be limited. Rideshare demand often exceeds supply on weekends, during storms, or late at night. These services are best used for short trips into downtown Truckee or for avoiding resort parking during peak times.
TART Regional Transit
The Tahoe Truckee Area Regional Transit (TART) system offers free bus service throughout Truckee, Northstar, Kings Beach, Tahoe City, and the Palisades Tahoe region. Both summer and winter schedules run daily. The closest stop is typically in downtown Truckee, about ten minutes from the home, with Park & Ride locations available during busy ski days.
Airports
Truckee Tahoe Airport (TRK) is approximately ten minutes away and serves private and general aviation only. Reno-Tahoe International Airport (RNO), the nearest commercial airport, is about forty-five minutes away via Interstate 80 and offers car rentals and shuttle services.
Winter Travel Tips
Guests visiting in winter should always check Caltrans road conditions before driving. Even if your vehicle is four-wheel-drive or all-wheel-drive, carrying chains is required in certain weather conditions. Tahoe Donner maintains its roads efficiently, but during major snowstorms, morning travel may be slower as plows work through the neighborhood.
No matter the season, staying at 13186 Ski View Loop places you in an exceptional location for skiing, hiking, paddleboarding, dining in Truckee, or simply exploring the natural beauty of the Sierra Nevada. The area is easy to navigate and offers something memorable around every corner.

Our stay in this beautiful cabin during the holidays was truly magical. The house was spacious, clean, and had all the amenities you could want - with a new kitchen and bathrooms! We requested a Christmas tree since we had two little kiddos with usand we arrived to the sweetest tree with ornaments - it was a small touch but made the world of a difference for our family. We were also nervous of being snowed in, but Ken arrived over an hour before our check out to clear the driveway of snow. Thank you so much!!

House was great, lots of space, nice and warm with individual room heating, hot tub was nice. Even had some unexpected snow along with the fall colors. Unfortunately the Tahoe Donner pool facilities were closed for repairs. Luckily we had heard about the Truckee Donner Community pool, which was available and was very good. One suggestion: have a hard copy of the instructions guide available, perhaps in a binder.
Awesome summer retreat! We had a blast staying there for a week, shuttling between Donner Lake, Tahoe, Trout Creak gym and pools, and just taking evening strolls by the golf course. The house has a great layout; it is spacious, private, and well taken care of. Ken was extremely easy to reach and quick to respond. 5/5
