Great Bison Lodge at Tahoe Donner by Tahoe Getaways - Pet Friendly 4BR w HOA & Heated Driveway
Step into mountain luxury at this stunning 4-bedroom, 3-bathroom Tahoe Donner retreat, designed for comfort, connection, and adventure. With its warm and inviting ambiance, soaring vaulted ceilings, and floor-to-ceiling windows framing serene pine tree views, this home is the ideal backdrop for an unforgettable Tahoe escape.
The super cozy living area invites you to unwind on the spacious sectional in front of a warm gas fireplace—a perfect setting for quality time with family and friends. The flat-screen TV can be tucked away so you can fully enjoy the peaceful mountain atmosphere. The open-concept living, dining, and kitchen area makes entertaining effortless—whether it's an après-ski gathering, a home-cooked meal, or a celebratory dinner.
The fully stocked kitchen features stainless steel appliances, a double oven with an air frying feature, and a spacious granite island—perfect for interactive meal prep and casual conversation. A family-style dining table provides a warm, communal feel, while the wet bar adds a touch of entertainment, making happy hour a breeze!
The primary suite on the main floor offers a true mountain sanctuary, featuring a king bed with plush bedding, peaceful forest views, and a newly remodeled ensuite with a jetted soaking tub, double vanity, and walk-in shower—the perfect place to unwind after a day of adventure. Also on the main floor, the second bedroom is a charming retreat with two twin beds, vaulted ceilings, whimsical bedding, and a cozy corner window, making it an ideal space for younger guests.
Upstairs, the third bedroom provides a cozy haven for kids with two twin beds, soft blankets, books, games, and a spacious closet for storage. Nearby, the fourth bedroom is a relaxing escape featuring a queen bed, a 35” flat-screen TV, plenty of clothing storage, and serene tree-lined views—perfect for restful nights. These upstairs bedrooms share a well-appointed bathroom with a bath/shower combo, a large mirror, and a single vanity, ensuring comfort and convenience for all.
The heated driveway and 1 car garage make winter stays effortless, providing easy access even after a fresh snowfall. In the colder months, the backyard transforms into a snowy playground, perfect for winter fun.
When summer arrives, the space becomes a peaceful mountain retreat, featuring a paved patio, a built-in waterfall feature, and an inviting outdoor seating and dining area, ideal for relaxing afternoons and outdoor gatherings under the towering pines.
This private mountain oasis offers access to Tahoe Donner's world-class amenities including skiing, tennis, swimming pools, and more.
