Donner Lakefront | Hot Tub, Arcade & Skee Ball — Guest Reviews

What a beautiful house to share with our group. Kids loved the games, secret game room, huge couch, and bunk rooms. Grown ups loved the gorgeous kitchen, views, and outdoor spaces. Truly beautiful location and we can’t wait to return.

Jeff and Bridget's place was magical! It had everything we needed, it was big and spacious, decorated so cute! all the kids loved the downstairs space and bunk beds! so much to do! The decks were fantastic! hot tub super great! It was cold the weekend we were there but we went out on the lake with kayaks provided! so fun! the view was stunning! I loved drinking my morning coffee on the deck near the fire-pit and just enjoying the sunrise and peaceful setting! will be back again! Highly recommended!

Even better than the photos - this place is stunning and cozy at the same time. It was our second time back and we will definitely return again. Host is responsive and proactive. Bedrooms are roomy, incredibly comfortable and clean. Family room and games are a hit plus the deck is phenomenal. Kitchen is well equipped and spacious. Couldn’t love it more. If I could give more stars I would.

If you’re wanting a breathtaking getaway with your family, this is your perfect trip!

We had a wonderful stay at their place! The house is beautiful with gorgeous views. We ran into some issuers but the hosts were responsive.

Gorgeous location and everything we wanted it to be and more for a weekend with the family! Incredible comfortable beds and gorgeous surroundings! Definitely a treasure at Donner lake! Definitely recommend!

The house is absolutely gorgeous and Donner is one of our favorite places. We had a fantastic vacation!

Perfect location for a family getaway.

Exceptional home and location! Exceeded my expectations immensely. What a dream vacation this was for our family! Already planning our next trip here!

This is a beautiful property. The house and view are even better than the photos. The decks have the perfect mix of sun and shade throughout the day. The kitchen is well appointed to allow for cooking and baking. The workout room had something for everyone in our group. We really enjoyed playing the numerous board games and appreciated having multiple areas for our group to gather. We absolutely loved the private dock. We spent lots of time fishing and relaxing there. There are four kayaks available which was a great activity for us in the mornings. We had a minor issue with the oven that the host addressed immediately. All in all a great place to stay.

We made some beautiful memories here, will definitely return to make some more.

Beautiful home right on the water of Donner Lake! Very well stocked and cozy for our group! Would definitely rent again!

Great spot! Right on the water, beautiful view, large main room perfect for a group. Recommend as a great spot to stay!

Beautiful AND comfy. Such a great location right on the water, and it feels quite private. Such a cozy home. Book this!

Hosts were very responsive and engaged and the property was absolutely gorgeous.

Had a great time. Jeff was always quick to respond with any questions I had.

This was a wonderful place and the hosts were very responsive and helpful.

Amazing stay! House is beautiful and right on donner lake. It was the perfect size for our huge family. Perfect for all ages and close to stores, restaurants and cafes. Would love to come back during the summer

Enjoyed our stay—really lovely location on the lake and conveniently close to skiing. Plenty of space for our large group, and the kids loved the bunk rooms and all the entertainment the game room offered. We had a couple hiccups upon arrival but I appreciated that Jeff and Bridget were communicative as soon as we reached out.

I really liked the house. It’s a very, very comfortable place, and I definitely have to visit it again. Its rooms and design are truly very cozy and spacious. The view there is paradise.

We immensely enjoyed our stay at Jeff and Bridget’s place. It’s a gorgeous, well-decorated, and thoughtfully stocked home with everything you could possibly need for a larger group. We stayed there with our team for an offsite, and it was perfect for accommodating everyone comfortably. From the weight room and game room to the hot tub and excellent sleeping arrangements, everything was ideal. Thank you for a wonderful stay!

Incredible place to stay if you’re skiing in Tahoe!!! The house was so beautiful and fun and perfect for our group. The hosts were amazing to communicate with. I highly recommend

Beautiful house in a beautiful place! We decided to have a short outing and didn’t know whether we would be able to find anything. Luckily we found this house and were extremely pleased with accommodations. The place was modern and clean. Both floors were great and entertaining! Highly recommend this place, and will come back again!

We had a wonderful stay and best stay so far! The place was exactly as described—clean, comfortable, and well equipped. The host was friendly, quick responsive, and made everything easy. Would definitely stay again!

We have been coming to the Tahoe/Truckee area for many, many years on a yearly group vacation and this was by far the BEST home we have stayed in. There's something for everyone (the games were a hit), and the peaceful lake view is spectacular. Most of us are searching for peace when we come to a place like this, and I have to say this home truly delivers. Every single person in my family said they want to return to this house next year (and we never stay in the same place twice). If you're on the fence about booking this home - just do it! I promise you will not regret it. Also, the owners are lovely people and so responsive. I asked a million questions and they were so kind and helpful! Thank you Jeff and Bridget for a truly memorable stay!

Amazing!!

Beautiful house - it actually is more spacious than the picture shown. Right on the water and lots of amenities in the house. Arcade games were a huge hit - I think we set some records on there. Kitchen was great for a large party like ours. Host was very responsive.

What an amazing stay! The house was very clean and had such an awesome view! The hosts were incredibly kind and very responsive and the house was filled with things to do. I so hope to be back again soon!

Great place to stay! 100% will book again.

This Donner Lake home was perfect!…private, beautifully maintained, and right on the water. The house had everything we needed and more. We loved the amenities, the view, and the peaceful setting. Can’t wait to come back! Thanks Jeff and Bridget!

This is an incredible home, perfect for small group of family, friends. There are some kid amenities that make it ideal for families. The lakeside location is hard to beat. All rooms were comfortable, including mattresses, pillows, linens. Plenty of spots to hang out at the house and the skeeball and pinball made for fun competition. The fitness room was a perfect way to start each day. The hosts were extremely responsive, accommodating, and easy to communicate with. I will definitely look for opportunities to book again!

Will be booking again! Hard to believe but the home is actually even better in person than in pics. Beds are all very comfy, plenty of seating in living areas, kitchen was top notch and well equipped, games were a blast, linens were excellent. I could go on and on. The host was so helpful as well - the best Airbnb experience I’ve ever had, and we travel quite a bit. Can’t wait to come back!

Jeff and Bridget are the most helpful responsive host! Our group had the best time at this spot and to be honest the pictures didn’t do its justice at all! When you walk in the whole place look 1Ox better than the pictures! It was a pleasant surprise for sure! The house has everything you need and felt like you were at home. By far the best Airbnb I have ever been to and I 100% recommend anyone to book this place and I will 100% be coming back!

Absolutely incredible! I booked this home for my 40th birthday celebration with 10 friends, and it was truly unforgettable. The setting right on the lake was magical—we loved jumping off the dock into the crystal-clear water and then strolling just a few steps to the hot tub for ultimate relaxation. The skeeball and pinball machines were an absolute blast and kept us entertained for hours. The kitchen was fully stocked with everything we needed, from cooking group meals to whipping up milkshakes, making it feel like home. Every detail of this place exceeded our expectations, and I honestly can’t recommend it highly enough!

Very nice, spacious and beautiful house. Enjoyed our stay very much.

This house is absolutely stunning, the moment you walk down the hallway you see the gorgeous lakefront view. The beds were so comfortable, the kitchen was stunning and nicely stocked, my kids loved the game room, and the gym was the most fun addition for a quick morning workout. We had friends and family stay and it was more than enough room to accommodate us all. We will definitely be booking again.

Exceeded our expectations. Lovely home in a beautiful location. Nicely accommodated our group of 12. The hosts were very responsive and easy to work with. Look forward to coming back.

Absolutely lovely house with beautiful interiors. The private dock on the lake was absolutely so worth the stay! Loved the hot tub and the large kitchen. Lots of places to hang out for my party of 16. The hosts were very responsive, helpful & kind.

We had a hard time saying goodbye to this beautiful lake house! It was exactly as pictured, and the design was gorgeous. We had plenty of space (for sleeping, unpacking, lounging), and the dock was a perfect place to drink our morning coffee. We loved having dinner together on the giant outdoor table while watching the sunset. It was clean and spacious, and the neighbors were even SO nice!! (took us for a spin on their boat). Truckee was a great place to shop and eat, and the kids loved the games at the house, along with the ladder to the shallow lake area. We all LOVED being at the house :) Owners were prompt and helpful and made us very welcome.

This house was great for our extended family of 12 with teenagers, parents and grandparents. It was a pleasure having the house right on the lake with a dock to walk down to and for the kids to jump in the lake. Enjoyed having the paddleboards and kayaks for the kids to use. Terrific location and great house!

Amazing stay! Beautiful house and location is perfect. Thank you Jeff and Bridget for the wonderful stay. We can’t wait to come back!

This house was absolutely stunning and in a quiet and peaceful setting on Donner Lake. Kitchen is beautiful, stocked well. Beds extremely comfortable and nice rooms, will be back! Back deck has tons of seating, loved the fire pit/BBQ. Highly recommend!

If you are looking for a beautiful getaway this is a great place to stay. there are lots of outdoor furniture to enjoy the beautiful scenery. Just the place We needed to recharge! The home was clean, organized, and host always responsive ready to jump in to help if we needed anything.

Such a beautiful Airbnb! The pictures didn't do it justice. The view was amazing! Very clean and spacious for a group of 10 adults/6 kids. This house had plenty to keep everyone entertained. Hosts were very responsive and friendly when we messaged them. Would love to visit again in the future!

We loved the house and the location. Owners were very responsive to text. However, we did have a situation that couldn’t get resolved by the owner. Both outdoor patios were not set up upon arrival, nor did we have any chairs to enjoy the outdoors. After 2 nights without any patio furniture and many back-and-forth texts, we were able to get the key to open the storage unit. We were able to set up the patio furniture ourselves to enjoy the remainder of our trip. All of that being said, the issue was just a blip of the trip and we loved the house, enjoyed all the amenities and look forward to visiting again.

Gorgeous home extremely well equipped. Thoughtful design, exceptional for families. Friendly and responsive hosts.

in this AirBnb the pictures do not do it justice. My guests and I rarely left the house because there was so much to do. Friendly neighbor two doors down, always waving and having great conversation. The weekend we went up didn't have the best weather but it made for the best views in the morning. Would not hesitate to book with them again. Thank you!!

Awesome cabin with a killer lake view. Super clean, plenty of space, great decks and hot tub. Hosts were helpful and quick to reply. Can’t wait to come back!

Perfect getaway. You can make anything that you want it to be - A peaceful staycation or adventurous journey. Would strongly recommend

Our family had an amazing stay at Jeff and Bridget’s place. Home was beautiful with breathtaking lake views. Kitchen was full of high end appliances and great to cook home meals. Property was close to Northstar and Palisades which made driving to the resorts very easy. One thing to note is the garage is detached which might help families decide if they want park inside or outside. Loved our stay!

Amazing place to stay with amazing hosts. The house was awesome and went above our expectations. I would totally recommend this and would stay here again. We went with two families and there was something for everyone to do, from the little ones to the adults. From the cozy couch potatoes to the gym rats! Truly awesome spot. Jeff and Bridgett are super responsive and proactive with our stay.

A beautiful place to stay! We were absolutely blown away with this house and location. The pictures don’t do it justice and the kitchen made it very easy to cook a wonderful dinner for our group. The owners were very responsive to get a quick fix for the oven. Half our group skied at North Star and were very happy with how close it was. Absolutely would recommend!

The best airbnb I’ve ever been to, magical place!

Nice host with very quick responses

This place was more beautiful than you could imagine from the pictures! We spent a weekend here with 15 friends to go skiing and it was perfect. The house felt huge even though there were so many of us. The kitchen and grill were amazing for cooking for a big group. We all slept so well here as the mattresses and bedding were so comfortable, which is perfect after a rough day skiing. Jeff and Bridget were so responsive and helpful in every single way. The only regret we have is that we didn’t stay longer!

This place is absolutely amazing! It is much bigger than it looks in the pictures, especially the kitchen. We had a group of 14 of us come up to North Tahoe for a ski weekend and we were all very comfortable. The house is well stocked with all towels, linens, cooking utensils, etc. There are thoughtful touches throughout the home and plenty of spaces to store your belongings so they are not in the way. The driveway has plenty of parking for large vehicles. Better yet, the hosts are extremely responsive. We had an issue in the kitchen and we quickly came to a resolution within an hour, no waiting around and derailing our vacation. I also want to thank the hosts for their flexibility and customer service. We’d love to return one day!

Great house for a winter family vacation, close to Truckee and the mountains with beautiful views.

Perfect amount of space for our 16 person group. Right by the water, and the kitchen is beautiful! Not to mention the skeeball machine and arcade games that kept us busy. It was the perfect cabin for our trip. Also shout-out to the host who was very communicative and worked around some of the requests we had. Thanks again;

Jeff and Bridget’s home on the lake was INCREDIBLE! The views/sunset were absolutely gorgeous. The home was so clean and well stocked. Our kids stayed very busy in the game rooms and cool bunk rooms while the adults had ample space to sit back and relax. There is something for everyone and we will 100% be back again next year!

Hot tub was super hot, and jumping in the lake after was prime. Gorgeous views, cool location, and the kitchen was spacious. Jaws pinball was the greatest.

Can’t think of a better place where I’d want to come visit again around Christmas time with the family! We had the best little get away for the weekend and can’t wait to come back and visit during the winter season. Definitely the most unique cabin we’ve ever been to which made the drive from San Diego to Truckee worth it.
