This charming retreat is your perfect summer basecamp for mountain adventures. Surrounded by towering pines and just steps from the Yuba River, enjoy hiking, swimming, fishing, and exploring nearby trails. Grill on the deck, stargaze by night, and head out to Donner Lake or the Pacific Crest Trail for unforgettable days in the Sierra. This little family cabin is right off of I-80, 10 minutes before the top of Donner Summit in small community called Kingvale. Whether you're hitting the slopes at Sugar Bowl in the winter or exploring scenic hiking trails, this cabin is the ideal base for outdoor adventures. The Cabin: \- One bedroom (Queen) + Loft (2x Full) \- One bathroom \- Cozy wood fireplace for chilly evenings + wood \- Heated floors \- Fully-equipped kitchen \- Air conditioning and heating for year-round comfort \- Outdoor propane grill and chairs \- Family-friendly atmosphere \- Complimentary snow shoes and hiking poles \- Ski / Snowboard holders Location: \- Under 10 minutes to Sugar Bowl, Boreal, and Soda Springs ski resorts. \- 8 minutes to Royal Gorge, largest x-country ski resort in North America. \- 8 minutes to the Pacific Crest Trail and various hiking trail heads \- South Yuba River only steps away at the end of the driveway \- 13 minutes to Donner Lake \- 15 minutes to Truckee \- 30 minutes to King’s Beach @ Lake Tahoe WINTER ACCESS: DONNER PASS IS SERIOUS. 1\. The driveway is NOT PLOWED There is a short 200ft walk to the cabin, typically in packed down snow. This is not a plowed road to a large condominium, this is a 1930s cabin in the depths of Donner Pass. Despite this, expect to see lots of families at the other cabins nearby :). 2\. The booking has flexible refunds up to 24 hours in advance for a reason! While the cabin has electricity and running water and great access to I-80, it is imperative that you check the weather forecast and plan accordingly. Please try to use proper judgement. 3\. When it snows, expect I-80 to SHUTDOWN We are located close to the top of the pass; you will be able to get out (most likely), but they will close traffic coming to the cabin if the roads are dangerous. More detailed information is available upon booking regarding parking and additional instructions. Please don't hesitate to reach out with questions. The cabin is a wonderful family spot and winters are a blast. ## Property amenities ### Ski - Cross-country skiing nearby - Snowboarding nearby ### Internet - Available in the house: Free WiFi ### Parking and transportation - Parking on site ### Dining - Dining table ### Bedrooms - 2 bedrooms ### Bathroom - 1 bathroom ### Living spaces - Dining table - Fireplace - Separate dining area ### Entertainment - TV ### Outdoor areas - Patio ### Pets - Pet friendly - One pet total (up to 50 lbs per pet) ### Suitability/Accessibility - Smoking not allowed ### Things to do - Fishing nearby - Hiking/biking trails nearby - Kayaking nearby - Mountain biking nearby - Mountain climbing nearby - Rock climbing nearby - Sledding nearby - Snowmobiling nearby - Swimming nearby - Water skiing nearby ### Safety features - Carbon monoxide detector (host has indicated there is a carbon monoxide detector on the property) - Smoke detector (host has indicated there is a smoke detector on the property) - First aid kit - Fire extinguisher - Deadbolt lock ## Similar properties ![Fridge, microwave, oven, stovetop](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/111000000/110700000/110695900/110695827/5190a3e4_edited_1bdf.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Soda Springs Vacation Rental Near 3 Ski Resorts Pla-Vada Woodlands - Kitchen - Washer - Dryer - Pet-friendly 10 Exceptional 2 reviews [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-11-15&endDate=2025-11-16&selected=110695827&PinnedHotelID=110695827&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Smart TV, fireplace, books, stereo](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/106000000/105140000/105134800/105134706/f75f4292.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Modern Cozy Cabin Retreat Emigrant Gap - Kitchen - Washer - Dryer - Pet-friendly 10 Exceptional 2 reviews [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-11-15&endDate=2025-11-16&selected=105134706&PinnedHotelID=105134706&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Exterior](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/90000000/89980000/89973400/89973363/9c92bfd8.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Rustic River Retreat - Pet Friendly - WIFI - 12 minutes to Sugar Bowl Resort Pla-Vada Woodlands - Kitchen - Washer - Dryer - Pet-friendly 10 Exceptional 7 reviews [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-11-15&endDate=2025-11-16&selected=89973363&PinnedHotelID=89973363&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Exterior](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/98000000/97050000/97045700/97045601/b5e2b4ef.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Riverfront dog-friendly retreat with a rustic flair & wood stove, near skiing Pla-Vada Woodlands - Kitchen - Washer - Dryer - Outdoor space 8.8 Excellent 3 reviews [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-11-15&endDate=2025-11-16&selected=97045601&PinnedHotelID=97045601&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Fridge, microwave, oven, stovetop](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/23000000/22770000/22769000/22768906/305b655c.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Dog-friendly waterfront cabin w/ lake views & access - close to slopes Truckee - Kitchen - Pet-friendly - Outdoor space - Parking available 8.2 Very good 82 reviews [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-11-15&endDate=2025-11-16&selected=22768906&PinnedHotelID=22768906&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Property grounds](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/103000000/102170000/102169700/102169653/126ccc63.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### 3 BR+loft, fam. rm., 2 bth, lg deck, close to major ski areas, trails, history.
