Set in a quiet neighborhood in Tahoe Donner, this vacation home is quintessential “mountain modern".
Fernwood Folly features environmentally friendly materials and technology such as COR-TEN steel, ledge stone, redwood, and cement fiber panels. Modern sensibilities and the clean lines of a more contemporary design are often labeled as cold and impersonal, but the homeowner’s furnishings definitely round out the space in a warm and comfortable spirit.
With only bears as the occasional gawkers, privacy is not so much of a concern. The tranquil views are breathtaking. Floor-to-ceiling windows bring the outdoors in so that you can enjoy the open space from the comfort of the gourmet kitchen, living room, or Primary bedroom suite. But why stay inside, when there is plenty to welcome you out? A full outdoor living room and dining area is situated to take full advantage of the forested setting and on the second-floor deck, a hot tub awaits to enjoy a cool evening soak.

ABOUT THE AREA
Tahoe Donner is one of America’s largest homeowner’s associations, with nearly 6,500 properties and 25,000 members enjoying over 7,000 acres in the Sierra Nevada mountains.
In the winter, enjoy on-site access to cross country and downhill skiing, and a snow play area which is a favorite among our younger visitors. In the summer, take advantage of the championship golf course and clubhouse or bring the family to one of the private swimming pool complexes. You’ll also have access to a private beach club at Donner Lake, where you can avoid the crowds and spend a day paddle boarding, kayaking or sunbathing on provided chaise lounges.
Dining options within the community include The Lodge Restaurant and Pub, winner of the 2015 Open Table Diners’ Choice Award, and Pizza on the Hill, a casual spot perfect for the whole family.
