About This Property
Embrace the timeless magic of Donner Lake in this quintessential 3-bedroom, 3-bathroom mountain cabin, perfectly positioned on Donner Pass Road directly across from the water. Framed by expansive, unobstructed views across the lake and surrounding peaks, this rare setting delivers the front-row alpine lifestyle buyers dream of. Step out onto the expansive, south-facing deck drenched in all-day Sierra sunshine—the ultimate vantage point for morning coffee over glass-calm water or unwinding after a day on the lake as the sun sets over the pass. Inside, the home offers warm, classic cabin character with comfortable living spaces tailored for family gatherings, mountain getaways, or seamless four-season entertaining. Lake days couldn't be more effortless. Stroll just steps from your front door to nearby public piers for a morning swim or paddle, and enjoy eligibility to join the coveted Donner Lake Property Owners Beach Club, offering private sandy beach access, boat trailer parking, docks, and pavilion amenities. Adding exceptional long-term value, the deep parcel extends street-to-street all the way to West Reed Avenue. This rare dual-street frontage creates an extraordinary canvas for future expansion—offering ideal grade and access to add a detached garage, guest quarters, accessory living space, or expanded off-street parking for boats toys. Whether enjoyed in its authentic cabin glory today or elevated for tomorrow, this is a legacy Donner Lake property in one of Truckee’s most enduring lakeside corridors.
