  Tahoe Donner is where traditions begin. Made up of 40% beginner runs and 60% intermediate runs, Tahoe Donner Downhill Ski Resort is great for beginner skiers, families and groups of 20 or more people looking for a friendly, accessible ski hill surrounded by other amenities.

• How do I receive my member discount for being a Tahoe Donner member?

  Members must have a Tahoe Donner member ID card to have access to member pricing. Member prices are only for members who have a card. To receive child (6 and under) member rates, each child must have a ShopTD member profile in our system before purchase. Eligible Tahoe Donner members should contact Member Services at info@tahoedonner.com to create a profile for any child age 6 and under. Members must create a member account to purchase items from the online store. Contact Member Services at (530) 587-9400 ext. 0 if you need any help setting up your member account.
• How do I buy my personal guest lift tickets if I’m a member?

  There are a few ways to purchase a personal guest lift ticket:

  • As a member, you can buy personal guest tickets by selecting the “Personal guest of owner” category (drop down menu) on the ShopTD ticket purchase page prior to selecting the date of your trip.
  • As a personal guest of a member, you can purchase discounted lift tickets on ShopTD by selecting “Personal guest of owner” as the ticket type. To obtain your guest lift ticket, you will need to be accompanied by a valid member photo ID card holder, or be registered as a personal guest on an owner’s property profile in ShopTD. If you have selected a “Guest” ticket without either of these requirements, you will be charged the difference in price to the public walk-up rate upon picking up your tickets at the ticket office.

  Please remember, the public pre-purchase discount rate may be a better deal than the guest rate so please look at both options before completing the purchase.

  Short-Term Rental Card holders do not qualify for a personal guest discount and should select “Public” when purchasing a lift ticket or trail pass online.
