Prepare to fall in love with Donner Lake: the ultimate winter and summer paradise.  Located on the sunny shores of Lake Donner in Truckee (and renovated in 2023), the Donner Dreams Lakefront home offers convenience, luxury, and privacy all packaged into the ideal mountain getaway. 

As you approach Donner Dreams Lakefront, you can't help but feel like you've "arrived" at your new lakefront home.  This 3-bedroom, 3-bathroom vacation home was completely renovated in 2023 with vacationers in mind and nearly everything down to the sheets is BRAND new.   Enjoy all the modern comforts including a smart thermostat, super-fast Wi-Fi, and a smart TV.  And the most important amenity?  Your very own private dock on Donner Lake!  

As you enter this lake front vacation home, the first floor greets you with a well-equipped remote workspace, a private bathroom and a guest bedroom with a king bed and stunning lake view.   Descending the stairs, you’ll enter the main living space where new furnishings and brand new home media provide a modern feel as does the well equipped kitchen where new modern stainless appliances add a luxurious touch.   Two additional bedrooms complete the main floor, one with a bunk bed and queen bed. The other offers another king-sized bed as well as balcony access through a sliding glass door.  A small loft is also available, accessible only by ladder and provides a full sized bed.

Summer travelers will understand just how special a lake front vacation rental can be.  While your friends struggle to find lakeside parking, you’ll be sprawled out with a book and a beverage on your own PRIVATE dock, a coveted amenity in Truckee.  Enjoy the lake there or check out the beach area, or maybe stay close by on the sprawling porch (with dining furniture, lounge chairs, and a BBQ).   In the winter months, being on the water has it's on unique appeal.  Jaw dropping lake views abound from nearly every room, and the white capped peaks beyond are a sight to be seen.  However, Donner Lake is also an  incredibly convenient location for skiers as well.  You'll avoid the traffic of many Tahoe Donner locations (and steep roadways too!).    For more on this location, check out the ABOUT THE AREA section below!

Sooner Lake

The house, it’s space and location made for a great stay. Walk out to a great view and walk a bit more and you are in the water. The house is well equipped. It is bare of any essentials. In New England houses come with all the basic necessities of. Poking oil, sugar, cOffee, tea, usually some pasta etc. Might want to transfer the tradition. That said shopping is close. It was easy to keep clean. Fine kitchen. All told it was great.

Spectacular lakefront setting

Greatly exceeded our expectations. I knew we would be on the lake - but I didn't imagine just how ON the lake we were - or how easy it would be to enjoy it. Hard to imagine a better way to start each day than a quick dip off the private dock. Unless it was sitting with a cup of coffee on the deck watching the sun light up the lake. (That was the hardest part of the trip - deciding whether to hang out on the deck, lounge on the dock, or just sit in the living room with the sliders wide open. The house itself was super bright and airy, seemed to be freshly updated, comfortable to sit in when we wanted to escape the sun, and completely quiet at night. What we hadn't expected was how convenient this location would turn out to be. It was just far enough from the beach club that we couldn't tell it was there, but ended up being close enought to town that it was just a few minutes when we wanted to head into Truckee for dinner. About the only knock I have is the lack of a garage - but there was a big driveway with plenty of off street parking. We will almost certainly be back.
