Serene Lakes is part of the North Tahoe area located in the northern Sierra Nevada mountain range in California, quietly nestled in the heart of Donner Summit. It is approximately one mile south of the town of Soda Springs and Interstate Highway 80. Access to the area is a two-lane paved road that Placer County maintains. On a year-round basis, the county maintains all paved roads within the Serene Lakes development, including snow removal. Serene Lakes is at the heart of the most traveled route during the California Gold Rush. Originally, the two lakes were known as Ice Lakes and were used by the railroad from 1870-1927. The most famous visitor to Serene Lakes was the American author Mark Twain. Enchanted by the area, he was the first to give names to the twin lakes. He called them “Serena” and “Dulzura,” names that they retain to this day. The twins later became known as “Serene Lakes,” which described their location and atmosphere. - Full kitchen (no dishwasher) - Parking in a driveway for three cars - Driveway is plowed at least one time a day when snowing - Private washer and dryer - Free, basic WiFi.
