My husband and I stayed here for a weekend getaway and it was amazing! The Oesterman's were great company, very accomodating and fantastic cooks. The rooms were nicely decorated and the beds were very comfortable. I have special dietary needs and Paul had restaurant menus to look at, even going as far as calling the restaurants to see if I could be accomodated. They also modified my breakfast, which filled me until dinner. They had recommendations of things to do, wonderful stories to tell, and boardgames they pulled out just for us. They even took a picture of us and emailed it to us to remember the trip by. My husband loved our stay and definitely plan on returning again!

My husband and I recently spent a week at the Donner Lake Inn B&B. This really was the ideal retreat for us. Mindy and Paul are living their dream as innkeepers. Paul was there over the weekend and Mindy was our hostess for the remainder of the week and we had the loveliest time. Mindy's warmth, attentiveness to our needs and good conversation made for an absolute treat. Every morning greeted us with delicious homemade breakfasts (and Mindy did an outstanding job accomodating to my husband's gluten free diet requirements, think fresh baked gluten bread and the like). An afternoon cup of tea or glass of wine with appetizers awaited us each day. Donner Lake Inn is nestled in the woods with a creek running at the back of the property, just a few feet from the hot tub. After each day of nordic skiing, we soaked our weary bodies and listened to the sounds of the nearby creek. Very nice. Our room was comfortable and cozy. This was the ideal retreat for us.

The Donner Lake Inn is a great get-away spot. It is not far from the bay area, but feels a million miles away. It is very peaceful, yet close to skiing, the cute town of Truckee and Donner Lake is a short walk away!
Each breakfast is a treat prepared fresh each morning. It was nice to return in the late afternoon and enjoy some wine and cheese in the great room.
We will definitely be returning!

Excellent B & B with good access to Donner Lake. The B & B is well maintained with attractive rooms & common areas. The beds are comfortable and the linens and towels are of excellent quality. Thick robes are provided and the rooms are heated with gas burning stoves. There is a new hot tub on the property and we enjoyed it under the stars. The owners (Paul and Mindy) are relatively new owners but are everything you expect from the owners. They were very friendly and helpful and their personalities are great. They provided wine, cheese and crackers in the evening. The breakfast was fantastic and honored Vet's day with Red, White and Blue French Toast as well as other breakfast choices.
We have stayed at many B & B's and this ranks among the best that we have been at.

Room tip: All rooms appear to be comparable in amenities and location.
