Donner Lake: Ideal Living For Active Outdoor Families

Posted by GrangerGroup on April 17th, 2017

Serene Lakes is a secluded community nestled in the mountains just outside of Lake Tahoe, closer to the Bay Area than most Lake Tahoe communities. In Soda Springs, CA, Serene Lakes is also a Donner Summit community. 

Donner Summit is one of the best reasons to live in Serene Lakes. It is one of the largest mountain passes in the Northern California area and makes this area one of the best winter sports homes in California. Approximately nine miles west of Lake Tahoe (a significant reduction in drive time when it comes to visits the to the Bay Area for work or play), Donner Summit has two sides to it: a steep mountainous side and a slow, gentle mountainous side. These two sides provide different skiing, snowboarding, and tubing experiences perfect for hardcore winter sports enthusiasts and beginners or those looking for a more relaxed experience. The snowfall each winter provides near perfect powder skiing opportunities at Donner Summit and the Sugar Bowl area nearby. For snow boarders, the Donner Ski Ranch and Boreal Ridge are the best choices for winter snowboarding fun.

Real estate prices vary greatly with real estate anywhere from 0,000 to + million making this the perfect place for those who need luxurious winter sports destination homes or more affordable ski slope cabins.
