Amenity Access
Tahoe Donner’s updated Amenity Access Rule reflects the association’s desire to foster the personal use and enjoyment of private amenities by members and their families while meeting the community’s current and future needs. During the Oct. 10, 2024, special board meeting the board voted to update the rule and a technical update was made in June 2026. The new rule has been implemented and is being fully phased in through Dec. 31, 2027.
WHAT IS CHANGING?
Over the next 3 years, the Amenity Access Policy Rule Change will address the following:
- Prioritizing member amenity access
- Up to 10 Member ID Cards available per property
- Family eligibility and age requirements for Member ID Cards
- Sunsetting the Annual Recreation Fee (in 2026)
- Eliminating Daily Access Fees for Member ID Card holders (in 2026)
- Access restrictions/limitations to address overcrowding by nonmembers
Prioritized Amenity Access
The rule prioritizes all user categories as follows:
- Members
- Personal Guests
- Resident Tenants (long-term/seasonal)
- Short-Term Tenants
These differentiations impact the registration process, requiring documentation to verify family relationships when adding or changing Member ID Card assignments on your property and implementing transferable short-term tenant cards effective Jan. 1, 2025.
