7000 Cold Stream Road, Donner Lake, CA 96161

Welcome to Two-Creeks where 10 acres of streams, level woodland and mountainside perches await as your basecamp for adventure. Two-Creeks feels like another world, a remote alpine wonderland. Streams that roar with snowmelt in spring mellow to a trickle as the summer progresses. Wildflowers bloom in meadows under snow-capped peaks, and autumn aspen trees turn yellow against a backdrop of evergreens. Lodgepoles, white firs, and jefferey pines abound in this foresters paradise. Tucked into Coldstream Canyon, Two-Creeks could be the perfect hideaway for nature lovers and outdoor sports enthusiasts. Its hard to believe you are only four miles away from the trappings of a premier full-service mountain town: Truckee California, and its surrounding ski areas. For the more rugged set, there is no need to drive to town; Cold Stream is home to the most celebrated back-country skiing, snowmobiling, hiking, biking, and ice climbing in the area. East Face, Anderson Peak and the Benson Hut are in the neighborhood. Resort skiers will love the location between Palisades Tahoe and Sugar Bowl ski area. The roads to Donner Lake are hikable/bikable in summer, although the best option might just be to stay put in your own private stream-fed haven. The neighborhood includes acreage parcels with a few small off-the-grid cabins, homes, and fishing shacks as well as the famed Lost Trail Lodge, which is an extensive mountain-style compound with a storied history of hosting outdoor revelers. There are just a few resourceful residents who live in the area year-round, while others choose to make this alpine valley a seasonal home. The area is accessible via car, mountain bike, or snowmobile depending on the season. The drive to town often takes less than 20 minutes, but sometimes conditions make access challenging. Have you been longing to unplug? For those who welcome adventure and enjoy wandering off the beaten path, Two-Creeks offers a one-of-a-kind portal into true back-country living.
