TEMPORARY BASE OPERATIONS
While construction continues on the new Downhill Ski Lodge through the 2024/25 ski season, Tahoe Donner remains committed to providing a safe and high-quality experience for visitors. The Downhill Ski Resort will maintain service operations in temporary facilities, including the ticket office and rental shop. Limited food service will be available with no indoor dining. We encourage you to dress appropriately for cold weather and take care when navigating the construction area and facilities. Please note: All on-mountain staff, including ski patrol, lift attendants and instructors, remain in place.
