Best kept secret in Truckee! Get away to this peaceful Eagle Nest master suite perched high in the trees in Tahoe Donner. Welcome to the Eagle Nest Suite — a peaceful, treetop master suite perched above the forest in Tahoe Donner. This serene, comfortable retreat offers a king bed, soaking tub/shower, window bench, large TV, coffee maker, mini-fridge, small microwave, and tranquil views into the pines. It’s an ideal space for guests respite, cleanliness, and easy access to Truckee’s best amenities.
Our quiet street provides rare tranquility while still being walking distance (0.75 mi) to Z Marketplace, The Lodge Restaurant & Bar, and the Rec Center. We’re 6 miles from historic Downtown Truckee and about 15 miles from Palisades Tahoe.
The suite is part of a larger home but fully locked off with its own private entrance and no shared indoor spaces. One parking space on the large, flat driveway is included.
🌲 Seasonal Atmosphere
In spring and summer, enjoy our “secret gardens,” a work in progress with thousands of planted bulbs offering daffodils, tulips, hyacinths, and seasonal color.
In winter, the gardens disappear under deep snow, transforming the view into a magical snowy forest.
❄️ Comfort & Climate Control
Most Truckee homes do not have A/C, but this suite does — a major comfort advantage in summer.
There is no in-room thermostat, so guests simply message the owner anytime to request temperature adjustments.
