Donner Lake

An awesome sight just off I-80 and 3 hours from the San Francisco Bay area, Dnner Lake is 3 miles long, 1/2 mile wide and apx. 600 ft deep. Formed by a glacier, home of the Donner Party, history buffs and nature lovers are often drawn to Donner Lake. Bordered on the east by the Donner Memorial State Park and Donner Summit on the west, the area is lined with homes that are within 20 to 30 minutes to everything a full time or second home owner could ask for. This is a breathtaking alpine setting populated by large lakefront homes and smaller rustic cabins. Cabins and condos begin in the upper $200,000 range and lakefront homes start at $900,000. A few lots remain from $90,000 to a million+. Homeowners may join the Donner Lake Property Owners Beach Club, which provides them access to a private beach and there are plenty of public docks to spend a lazy day fishing, swimming, boating or sunning.
