Enjoy a private hot tub, game room with pool table, and easy access to Donner Lake, Truckee, and top ski resorts. Perfect for families, friends, and year-round mountain getaways. Welcome to Baden’s Best, a cozy mountain getaway tucked among towering pines on a quiet street in Tahoe Donner. From the moment you step inside, you’ll feel the warmth and comfort that make this cabin so special. Start your vacation upstairs in the inviting living room, where vaulted knotty pine ceilings, a beautiful stone fireplace, and a comfy leather sofa create the perfect alpine retreat. After a day on the slopes or trails, relax by the fire or gather downstairs in the family room for a game of pool, a movie night on the big-screen TV, or a round of Xbox with family and friends. The fully equipped gourmet kitchen makes cooking a pleasure, with stainless steel appliances, granite countertops, and everything you need to prepare a delicious meal. Dine together around the spacious table or step out onto the deck for a BBQ surrounded by mountain air and tall pines. When it’s time to unwind, slip into the private hot tub on the back deck and watch the stars shimmer through the trees — it’s the perfect Tahoe ending to any day. A Home with Heart As a child, I spent winters skiing and sledding in these mountains, and I fell in love with the crisp air and peaceful pine forests. Years later, my wife and I discovered Tahoe Donner while driving home from Reno — and instantly knew this was where we wanted to build family memories. In 2004, we made that dream a reality and purchased this cabin we now call Baden’s Best. Over the years, we’ve poured our hearts into decorating and updating it to feel like home — adding the back deck and hot tub, upgrading furnishings, and creating a space where guests can relax, laugh, and make lasting memories. We’re proud to share our mountain home with you and hope you enjoy it as much as our family has for the past two decades.

The house exceeded our expectations and was lovely! It really felt like home. The accommodations were very comfortable and the kitchen was stocked, not like the typical rental. We were there during a big snow storm and with the food we brought and the lovely kitchen were able to easily cook delicious meals to enjoy around the large dining table. Overall, we couldn’t have had a better place to stay and the hosts were very responsive and helpful. ##### Nina W. Stayed 3 nights in Jan 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Jeremy A. Jan 9, 2019 #### Beautiful place. Great location. Very cozy. We had an absolute blast. The house is very nicely furnished and super cozy, especially the comfy beds and great fireplace in the main room. The kitchen is very well appointed compared to every other vacation rental we’ve been with real pots and pans, bakeware, cutlery and all the rest. Our boys loved the “man cave” basement with a pool table and giant TV. We had some epic board game sessions both downstairs and by the fire. We would happily stay here again. ##### Jeremy A.

We had an amazing time, and had all the comforts of home :) Thank you John and Karen, the home was very cozy and spacious. The location is great, close to everything. The teenagers and kids loved the big rec room downstairs. The property is clean and photo's accurately describe the property. Nearby activities, snowboarding/skiing, you pick a mountain they are all awesome! We had a wonderful dinner and drinks at "Bar of America" in downtown Truckee. It was wonderful family winter trip :). We would highly recommend Baden's Best for any family visiting the Truckee/Tahoe area. ##### Jessaca L. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Meryl B. Jul 7, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Wonderful stay at Tahoe Donner We love going to Donner Lake in the summer, and we really loved this property. The house was exactly as advertised, very comfortable, and well-stocked. It has 3 bedrooms on the main floor, and a large family room with bunks, a trundle, and a sleeper sofa on the ground floor. We had adults upstairs and college-age kids on the ground floor. The main floor has newly-installed air-conditioning (hard to find in this area) which was a huge plus because it was in the 90s during the day. The downstairs stayed cool even without A/C, so we were all comfortable. The house has a pool table and a hot tub, and we enjoyed all the Tahoe Donner amenties, including the fitness center, hiking trails, and the lake itself. The house was very clean when we arrived, and clearly the hosts have put a lot of thought into stocking the kitchen with cooking utensils etc. The location was great - an easy, flat 15 minute trail walk to the Trout Creek Rec Center, and a short drive to Donner Pass Road and downtown Truckee for shopping and restaurants. Communication with the hosts was excellent. Overall, great stay. We recommend it, and we would stay here again. ##### Meryl B. Stayed 4 nights in Jul 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Steven S. Apr 3, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### solid with great hosts We'll stay again if we have the chance. Luxurious is a stretch, but the kitchen is nice, and the oven is luxurious! The hosts are organized. Would have been nice if they would have had the snow on the deck cleared to make using the grill easier. Also, some folks might have minded having to shovel snow for an hour to use the garages when we arrived, but I enjoyed the workout :)The showers are the weakest feature. Also, I'm sure they didn't mean to intrude, but it was weird that someone came to service the hot tub out back & they didn't tell us they were coming by. ##### Steven S.

The home was well appointed and comfortable. The game room downstairs was a great gathering spot for a game of pool or some TV time. The location was amazing - the trail head just down the block became our favorite morning walk. We also enjoyed the Truckee area and how close everything was and especially Donner Lake and the surrounding trails and hikes. The amenities of Tahoe Donner were also fun - we loved trivia night at Alder Creek. The hosts were very responsive and helpful! Highly recommend this spot for anyone looking in the Truckee area.

There’s a fun hot tub on the deck too. We also enjoyed the opportunity to cook in the well-equipped kitchen, which made meal times a joy.

We had an excellent week at this home. It’s was clean, well stocked and just a very comfortable home! It was centrally located to everything! The owners were very accommodating and easy to communicate with anytime. Would stay here again! ##### Maggie M.

Kids slept on the bunk bed (trundle underneath was a bonus) in the ground level family room that had the pool table and hot tub on the deck. Adults were upstairs on the main level. 3 bathrooms were perfect for everyone to have their own space. Beds were very comfortable. Plenty of towels and the washer/dryer on the main upstairs level came in handy. We entered through the garage which fit one large suv but parked the second car in the driveway as there was too much snow blocking the second garage spot. The Donner Ski Resort was just 6 minutes away. Really perfect spot for our family with fully stocked cooking supplies,spices, oils, paper towels, tp, coffee filters etc! ##### Meghan J.

The house was not only clean and well appointed with extra linens, cleaning supplies etc. but the owner remotely turned on the heat for us to ensure we’d arrive to a cozy space. Two car garage that accommodates two SUVs was incredible given the level of snowfall. Tahoe Donner hoa plows the driveway so we didn’t lift a finger. Our group included 4 adults and 4 kids but the house had plenty of space for both mealtime gatherings and to retreat into separate spaces when we wanted to. Less than 10 minute drive to groceries, restaurants and gas and only 20-30 minutes to Palisades, Northstar or Sugarbowl. We can’t wait to go back! ##### Katie Z.

Jan 7, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Wonderful home in spectacular location We stayed at this home shortly after the holidays with my parents and 3 kids. It was the perfect spot for all ages to enjoy the fresh fallen snow, do some skiing, sledding and just enjoy the scenery. The basement was a great space for my older kids to hang out. The kitchen was well equipped with everything we needed and more. It is a very close drive to Tahoe Donner making it easy to get to the chair lift for “fresh tracks”. Since we were there during a large snow storm, John and his wife were very thoughtful and checked in to be sure we were plowed out and didn’t have any issues. Overall a very memorable stay and we definitely hope to be back. ##### Allison F. Stayed 5 nights in Dec 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Daniel M.

The home is beautiful, and great for families and large groups. Beds are very comfortable. The kitchen is well stocked with everything we needed to cook and enjoy the holiday week together. Location is a convenient jumping off point for accessing north lake ski spots and just minutes to tahoe donner ski hill, a great place for young kids to learn. Hosts are friendly, very responsive and easy to communicate with. Would definitely stay again! ##### Daniel M. Stayed 6 nights in Dec 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Travis I.

The house was clean with lots of space for the kids to keep apart and also come together for playing in the game room downstairs. Location is close enough to Truckee yet far enough away to be a nice getaway if you want to keep to yourself. ##### Travis I. Stayed 4 nights in Nov 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### ashley r. Mar 27, 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### \*\*\*\*\* 5 Stars We were a group of 5: Two 50 somethings and three early 20 somethings. Loved every minute. The house is clean, beautifully furnished and appointed. The open kitchen/living room, where we spent much of our time hanging out, cocktails, and (ick) even some work, was sunny, comfortable and had every pot, pan, knife (yes!), platter, bowl, and tool we needed. The hot tub, pool table and family room downstairs is where we spent the later hours soaking, relaxing, and playing. An added bonus was being able to use both sides of the two car garage- it saved us from scraping cars in the morning and made loading and unloading cars easy peasy. My constructive criticism would be to upgrade wifi service (if possible) as while it is available and working, I got kicked out frequently while I worked. Many, many thanks for a first class experience :) ##### ashley r. Stayed 5 nights in Mar 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Christine K.

With two families the pool table was perfect for some friendly competition. It was so easy to get to ski area and snowplay. This was the time away we needed! ##### Christine K.

Great location easy to get to things, even in the snow. Kids had fun with watching tv, playing pool, using hot tub. Cooked several meals in the kitchen. Perfect winter getaway. ##### James B.
