West Donner Lake Retreat

Welcome to 10380 Washoe Road, a thoughtfully updated mountain retreat tucked among towering pines on the coveted West End of Donner Lake. Blending classic alpine architecture with modern improvements, this inviting home offers approximately 1,184 square feet with three bedrooms, two bathrooms, a loft, and an attached two car garage. Designed to comfortably accommodate up to ten guests, the flexible floor plan lives well beyond its footprint, making it ideal as a full time residence, vacation home, or mountain getaway.

Inside, soaring tongue and groove wood ceilings, exposed beams, and a dramatic floor to ceiling stone fireplace create a warm and welcoming great room filled with natural light. The updated kitchen features granite slab countertops, stainless steel appliances, generous cabinetry, and seamless flow into the dining and living spaces. Additional improvements include Milgard windows, updated bathrooms with quality stone and tile finishes, electrical system upgrades, a Mitsubishi mini split air conditioning system in the primary bedroom, and a full size LG stackable washer and dryer.

Outside, one of the neighborhood’s largest deck and patio entertaining environments creates an exceptional extension of the home with multiple gathering spaces beneath mature pines. Begin your mornings with coffee overlooking Donner Summit and the historic railroad tunnels before spending the day on the lake or the trails. Relax in the large hot tub, included with the sale, and enjoy outdoor dining with tables and chairs that are also included. A large paint matched storage shed provides abundant storage for mountain gear and seasonal equipment.

Positioned toward the quieter back portion of Donner Lake’s West End, the property enjoys a peaceful setting with minimal through traffic while remaining just minutes from the private beach, marina, and year round recreation. The home also offers outstanding functionality with an attached two car garage, up to seven paved off street parking spaces, and a dedicated paved RV parking area complete with electrical hookups.

Ownership includes access to the Donner Lake Property Owners Association, providing private beach and marina access along with volleyball courts, playgrounds, picnic areas, and endless opportunities to enjoy one of Truckee’s most cherished mountain communities. Just minutes from Sugar Bowl, Palisades Tahoe, Boreal, Royal Gorge, Donner Memorial State Park, and Historic Downtown Truckee, 10380 Washoe Road offers the perfect balance of authentic mountain character, thoughtful updates, outdoor living, and the four season Donner Lake lifestyle.
