A public beach on Donner Lake where you can catch some sun while a lifeguard is on duty. You'll also find playground equipment, snack shack, sand volleyball and basketball.(peak summer months only)

West End Beach has a large beach, play structures, and great views to the East across Donner Lake. It is about a 15 minute walk. In the summer, there are lifeguards, concessions, and an entrance fee (usually free in the winter).

A five-minute drive from Donner Lake Cabin will take you to the West End Beach of Donner Lake Chill all day with a picnic, swimming, volleyball courts, playgrounds. Summer fun at its best! A small entrance fee required.
