About the host
Hosted by Tim
From Tim and Kim - Welcome to the Cutting Chateau! We absolutely love this home and hope that you do too during your stay. We love bringing our family and friends to stay here and enjoy all that Truckee and Lake Tahoe have to offer. We also host a home in Napa Valley :)
Why they chose this property
Cozy, updated mountain cabin, just a short drive to downtown Truckee, Donner Lake, & Lake Tahoe. Peaceful surroundings, great access to the highway, outdoor activities, resort amenities, & more. Plus, you can enjoy all the comforts of home, like our garage, deck fire pit & a game room.
What makes this property unique
Tahoe Donner is a quaint, family oriented community. Our street is very quiet and houses mix of part-timers and full-timers. We are on a major road with good snow plowing and clearing during the winter months.
Tahoe Donner Clubhouse guest passes are available to take advantage of area amenities for free or at a discount (including a gym, swimming pool, hot tub, BBQ grill area, etc.).
You are also only a short drive to Squaw Valley, Northstar and our other world-class ski resorts. We also have the Tahoe Donner Ski Area which has been named one of the best ski areas for beginners! There is a snow park and plenty of room for snowshoeing, cross country skiing or snowy walks in the trees.
