Contact us if there are specific areas you are itching to see (and yes we have our own secret spots that we may share with you once you are out here!)

Originally developed as the host village for the 1960 Winter Olympics, the 21st century version of Squaw is without question one of the finest resorts in Lake Tahoe if not North America. Skiing and boarding is spread across six huge mountains; with 4000 acres and 33 lifts to get you there, you'll do well to explore every option in one visit.

Northstar-at-Tahoe is an all-season, family-oriented destination resort six miles from the north shore of Lake Tahoe. Northstar's two ski areas, covering 2,420 acres of downhill Terrain ranging from gentle bowls to long, steeper runs serviced by a modern network of lifts to get you up the mountain fast.

Spend some time at Lookout Mountain for plenty of steeps and trees. Northstar's 70 diverse trails for all levels of experience catering to 25% beginners, 50% intermediates and 25% advanced skiers.

There is an energy at Alpine Meadows resort; a heartbeat. This mountain mesmerizes us with perfect powder which lingers days after a storm; grants moments of clarity on quiet traverses through snow covered pine trees; and converts visitors to locals with seven open bowls, gentle, top-to-bottom cruisers, and forested glades. Alpine Meadows mountain resort allows its visitors to feel unabashed joy harbored in every soul’s inner child. Alpine Meadows attracts skiers and riders who are passionate about their turns, or want to spend some quality time with their family.

One of Lake Tahoe's original ski areas with a mountain that welcomes all skier/boarder levels. This is our favorite ski area on those 'wintery' days filled with snow and wind. Homewood has some of the best tree skiing in the region and the protected nature of the lifts allow for a great experience, even when the weather is less than perfect.
