The Milky Way: Lake Views, Game Room, 3800 Sq Feet, 3 Living Areas, Bunk Room

Welcome to our beautiful and expansive chalet overlooking Donner Lake. We call it the "Milky Way" because of countless memories watching shooting stars and the Milky Way from our patio. From spectacular panoramic views to large living areas with two wood burning fire places, a gigantic and well equipped kitchen, plenty of beds, foosball, bunk room and loft with PS4 for the kids, a great location not far from downtown but away from the noise, and much more, the home has a ton to offer.

With over 3,800 feet of living space, we can host up to 15 guests (10 adults and 5 children under 7 years old), in 8 beds, making it perfect for multifamily groups as well as corporate and other retreats.

***IMPORTANT: 4x4 IS HIGHLY RECOMMENDED IN THE WINTER. Two wheel drive will usually not work, even without recent snow. The road and driveway can become slick from the freeze / thaw cycle and winds. Sometimes front wheel drive with snow chains works, but not ideal.
