Summary: This fulfilled my dream and plan to celebrate my 75th birthday at Donner with my whole immediate family (14)!The house/cabin is interesting-a converted older motel! The lakeside location is the reason we chose this property- it’s perfect. Lots of water toys are offered, including a tutorial on the Hobie Cat ( which we did not need, but did use!) Spa looks new and was greatly appreciated by our tribe. Three owners were readily available, stopping by upon checkin, check out, and in between. The outboard was not working ( slight disappointment). There are a couple of flights of stairs to get to main kitchen and dining area, the upstairs bunk room, and over to the two living areas at street level. Access to pier and lake is fairly accessible with just slight steps down to lower patio. The kitchen is very well stocked with all kinds of appliances and there are two sets each of washers and dryers. I actually hate to recommend it too highly since that reduces my chances of it being available in the future for my family! But we created great memories once again and Donner will always have a very special place in our hearts! Thank you Hanns!

Summary: Stay was wonderful just as our previous stays. Unfortunately, the paddle boat was not operable and in our previous stays that was fun for the wife and kids.

Summary: Cabin was clean and very large; hosted our large family easily and comfortably. Very well stocked. Lots of water toys to enjoy the calmer end of the lake. Decks were sunny and spacious. The spa was a perfect treat after a day of playing on the water. We loved our stay and can’t wait to go back!

Summary: This is our second visit to the property so we were familiar with it. We had a great time, but we are not much of winter folks so next visit will be in the summer again. Owners are very good to work with.

Summary: Our family gathered from Virginia, Illinois and CA to share a fantastic week of fun, adventure and relaxation! All 14 of us found this location, the weather and various "toys" provided to bind our family ever closer! What a beautiful location!

Summary: We had a lovely long weekend at the lake house. There were plenty of beds for everyone -- and plenty of water sports to keep everyone entertained. I went in with medium expectations based on the pictures included on the listing but the pictures do not do the place justice. While it does have more of that cabin feel, it was spacious, clean, and much more updated than expected. We hope to return when the weather is a bit warmer!
