We go here every summer, it's perfect. Best spot on the lake, and great for kids! A little pricy but worth it to have a kitchen and be right on the water. There's no pool or spa but there is a beautiful lake right outside your door... The resort has a rental shop for all kinds of fun stuff-- canoes,... More

Stayed there for 4 days at the end of the 2013 ski season. We had a one bedroom suite. The kids loved it. The hotel is very close to several ski resorts. We tried Soda Springs where the kids had their first ski experience, then we moved on to Sugar Bowl, where the snow was quite nice for that time... More

This place is very close to Sugar Bowl and Sierra Ski Ranch. They are just ten minutes or so up old highway 40 so you do not need to even get on I-80 to get there or into Truckee which is on the other end of Donner Lake. The staff here was very friendly and helpful which frankly was not... More

The location steps from the water, private boat dock for Townhomes, gorgeous views are the only reason for giving our townhome that we rented a "4" rating. If I was rating the townhome itself, I would rate it a 2. Townhome #254 is straight out of the 80's. It has never and I mean never been updated. All oak and... More

My husband and I stayed with my son and his best friend for a soccer tournament and it didn't take long for us to be more interested in the resort than we were in soccer. Our one bedroom was quite comfortable with plenty of room for the four of us. It was wonderful to be able to sit on the... More

My husband and I were on a road trip and touring around Donner Lake for the day.
