Lake Tahoe is the second deepest lake in the United States. It is filled by rain, stream, and snow runoff from the steep mountains that surround it. While the lake is the main stage for summer activities – boating, swimming, and the likes – the powdery peaks and numerous ski resorts are the prime destinations of winter vacationers.

Located on the California/Nevada border and one hour from the Reno-Tahoe International Airport, travelers come from near and far to ride the slopes and roam the resorts around the Sierra Nevada Mountain Range.

There are two sides to Lake Tahoe– North and South. North Lake Tahoe includes most of Tahoe’s ski resorts including Squaw Valley, the home of the 1960 Winter Olympics, and Tahoe City, an area with many restaurants and shops. South Lake Tahoe offers gaming with a strip of casinos including Caesar’s, Harrah’s and Heavenly Ski Resort just a mile away.

Whichever side you choose, Lake Tahoe offers a range of sleep accommodations from fun snowboarder commons to five-star resorts. If you prefer to travel with a big group, the most fun and affordable choice is a house or cabin rental. There are many resources and websites to find places to rent for just the weekend or for as long as a full season. Splitting the bill makes this option great for a group of college kids or for a large group of friends and families.

The most popular ski resorts in Lake Tahoe are Squaw Valley, Heavenly, North Star, and Kirkwood, but there are numerous smaller, boutique ski resorts that are perfect for a quick ski day or for instructional lessons.

Build a snowman with the kids or hit the Jackpot tables after a day of skiing and make the most of the winter season in Lake Tahoe.
