Tahoe Donner Lofted Studio #212

Conveniently located at the base of the Tahoe Donner Downhill Ski Resort, this comfortable lofted studio is the perfect year-round destination. Located within the desirable Tahoe Donner HOA, you’ll enjoy access to a variety of year-round activities from downhill skiing, mountain biking, hiking, golfing, horseback riding, and relaxing poolside at the Trout Creek Recreation Center.

The condo is on the 2nd floor of Tahoe Donner Lodge. Guests will receive a secure code for entry to the building and can access the 2nd floor via a shared elevator.

Entering the condo, you’ll find the kitchenette, full bathroom, and living room on the main floor. Lots of natural light flows in through the sliding glass door leading out to the small balcony. The carpet in the living room was just replaced in the spring of 2025 with a new laminate flooring. The kitchenette has a 2-burner electric stove top, refrigerator, microwave, coffee pot, and enough cookware to stay in and prepare meals. Enjoy the Roku TV while relaxing by the small electric fireplace. Please note there is no central heat. The condo is primarily heated by a wall heater in the living room, the electric fireplace, and two electric space heaters that can be plugged in upstairs or downstairs.

The living room features a queen sleeper sofa, while the queen size bed is located in the lofted bedroom above, accessed via a spiral staircase. There is also a set of twin bunk beds in the lofted bedroom. Please note: the staircase, shown in the photos, may be challenging for small children or those with mobility concerns

Good enough for 2 nite stay but could be improved

Due to heavy snowfall, it was difficult to locate actual building. Narrow spiral stairway to upper level. Thick sponge mattress on main bed not comfortable for someone with back issues. No oven, borderline inadequate lighting, tricky heating.

Overall great stay

The property was just as advertised and we were happy with the location, size, beds, linens, and supplies. We only had two minor complaints. We couldn’t seem to take a hot shower for longer than about six or seven minutes as the hot water ran out. Also, it seemed as though the sliding glass door that led to the balcony was bolted shut, and there are no other windows to enjoy the fresh mountain air. There is no air conditioning, and the unit heats up during the day and made sleeping in the loft a bit warm despite the fan. Other than that, we very much enjoyed our stay

Walking distance to downhill ski. Hot water ran out on the first day.

Conveniently located within the resort. Tiny unit with all the essentials. Stairs leading to the loft can be intimidating. Hot water completely ran out on the first day within a few minutes of use while my kids were both wet already (in addition to a few minutes of brown water in the beginning). It could have been much better if this was communicated ahead of time. Use of hot water in the next days was well planned as we knew we had to be careful not to shower all at once so there was no further problem for 4 of us. No central heating in the unit but came with a few space heaters so you might feel a bit chilly near windows and in bathroom. There is no hot tub in the building, you have to drive out and pay $15 for day use. Unit came with two guest passes which saved me $10 each daily lift ticket.

Convenient and ship shape

Little open loft one bath kitchenette condo in kid friendly Tahoe Donner, "the place to begin" skiing. Lots southern exposure, glorious sunshine, view to lift. Lodge and Ski lift less than a block away. The drive into Truckee or to other skiing in the area is reasonable. Because there was a guest pass and hot tub mentioned in the TVR info, we were hopeful, but no, apparently. Maybe you can ask TVR?

cozy getaway space

Cute and cozy space, great for what my brother and I needed. Note there is no ac and since heat rises the sleeping loft was very warm. There are fans though, and also I love the spiral staircase! We mostly only slept there and were busy with a nearby family gathering so did not get a chance to utilize the pool but it looks nice - you can see it from the deck there. Tiny yet functional kitchen.. main bed was on the softer side and the lower bunk of the bunk bed seemed more firm .according to my brother.

Spring Break

This condo loft was perfect for our family of four and located within walking distance to the resort. Although you can't cook gourmet meals, the kitchenette was perfect to cook simple meals to get us through the day. This unit can use a new toaster or even a toaster oven since it does not have a regular oven. There are only a few outlets in the kitchen so you have to juggle the location of the appliances to use them. Other than that, it provided all that we need and would rent this condo again.

Stayed here for a 3 day ski at Tahoe Donner

If you are skiing in Tahoe Donner, look no further. This is it. I stayed here in late March 2022 with my spouse and 2 kids for 4 nights. The property is cozy. As this was a ski trip, we ate in and the small kitchen was adequate (microwave, fridge, 2 stove burners, enough plates/utensils, etc.). There is a little deck to store your ski gear if you so please. We put on our ski gears every morning and walked to the office to check in and up to the chair lifts to ski. Great location. We did not go out to eat or hang out, so cannot say what the night life is like. The closest Safeway is 12 minutes away- not bad at all. You do need to take the trash out and undo the used bedsheets, so if you regularly stay at resorts/hotels, it's a hassle. I did not understand the heating system in the unit, but as it was not freezing, I did not reach out to the property owner. We would absolutely stay here again when we ski at Tahoe Donner again!

Cozy and Convenient

The property was perfect, exactly as described. Just steps away from the downhill ski resort. It was so convenient for my little guys who had to be up early for lessons. For me, I was able to ski then go back to the condo to eat lunch, freshen up, and then hit the slopes again within a minute. It was great. The condo was cozy too and the loft was perfect for the three of us, bunk beds and a queen. The spiral staircase is definitely a win for the kids. We would definitely want to stay again. Thank you!
