welcome to north lake tahoe If it is variety you crave, North Lake Tahoe is a veritable feast. Appetites are satisfied with jawdropping scenery, wildlife, alpine flora, year-round recreation, state parks and historic resorts. Sweeping in a 180-degree arc from Incline Village in Nevada all the way south along the California shoreline to Emerald Bay, North Lake Tahoe takes the definition of variety to new heights—literally. The diverse towns that dot the shoreline offer a myriad of opportunities and experiences with one of the most beautiful lakes in the world as their front yard. You never have to wonder how to fill your days and nights in North Lake Tahoe. You can relax, meet new people, explore trails, ski, fish, eat, dance and partake in the excitement of Nevada-style gaming. But best of all, you can forget your worries and feel the power of the mountains, water and stars. The spectacular beauty of this place allows you to feel truly a world apart.

In summertime, the abundance of sunshine promises fun-filled days, capped with sunsets that bathe the majestic mountains in rich hues of pink, purple and magenta. Few places in the world can boast so much grandeur alongside so much natural beauty. With its diverse array of recreational activities, along with a splendid selection of culinary delights, summer in North Lake Tahoe is a must-do on any traveler’s list. During the winter months, snow settles silently like a fine dust upon the granite edges surrounding the Lake. Located in a glacial valley along the northern crest of the Sierra Nevada’s western slope, the sculpted mountain architecture appears with a startling suddenness along the shore of this pristine lake. The big peaks, the famed landmarks and towering trees stand frosted in a winter cloak that can only be described as enchanting. Whenever you visit, you will be enthralled by both the beauty, and the incredible variety of activities that abound on water, in resorts and towns and on our mountains. Let the pages that follow tell part of our story–-and visit our website often to find your own personal happily ever after.

tahoe vista / carnelian bay Historically ports of call for the logging industry and Tahoe’s steamships, Carnelian Bay and Tahoe Vista occupy the Northwest Shore of Lake Tahoe. The wilderness, which the Paiute and Washoe tribesmen used as favorite summer camps, today serves as a hub for the communities that include beachfront accommodations, fine dining, and sandy and pebbled beaches. In the summer months, kayakers paddle the shoreline amongst families of Merganser ducks floating in front of secluded beaches. There is a plethora of beaches to choose from here, from the soft sand and shallow waters of Moon Dunes to dog-friendly Patton Beach. Every day, charter fishing boats and exquisite vintage wooden yachts travel in and out of Sierra Boat Company as well as the North Tahoe Marina, while exploring the Lake. Each year, Sierra Boat Company hosts the Concours d’Elegance—one of the largest classic wooden boat shows in the world. North Lake Tahoe Regional and nature hikes can give way to sledding and cross-country skiing.

Outdoor attractions are our first act. But there are plenty of attractions indoors to complete the show. Spindleshanks’ dining room is a set designer’s vision of a bistro, intimate and pinepaneled, where conversation flows from table to table. Notable lakefront eateries, such as Gar Woods Grill and Pier and Captain Jon’s, bring the Lake and the mountains right into their dining rooms. Mourelatos Ice Cream Shop, across from the lakeshore resort with the same name, is a favorite afternoon stop for kids of all ages. Sancho’s serves up authentic Mexican cuisine, with a view of Lake Tahoe from every seat or stool. If the fresh air and solitude of the two communities are not enough to hold the modern world at bay, various motel accommodations have an even more pristine appeal. There are more lodging choices in Tahoe Vista than you can shake a kayak paddle at—from B&Bs where you can tickle your toes under the cozy covers, and charming lakefront cabins complete with cozy fireplaces, to high-end fractional ownership resorts and mom-and-pop motels. As its name suggests, Tahoe Vista lodging is nestled right against the lakeshore.

kings beach Legend has it that at the turn of the 20th century, local businessman Joe King obtained logger Robert Sherman’s large lakefront parcel in an all-night poker game. Visiting Kings Beach, located only a mile from the Nevada border, however, is never a gamble. At first glance, Kings Beach may seem like a sleepy little town, but it contains enough shops and hidden treasures to surprise most vacationers. Its epicenter of activity is the Kings Beach State Recreation Area, once the site of Joe King’s estate. Here, the winds blow their freshest against wide, unbroken scenery and secluded sand dunes. Sunshine streams down on fresh-faced beachcombers enjoying an array of water sports and activities. Visitors can enjoy everything from stand-up paddle-boarding, parasailing and kayaking to volleyball, crafts shows and live music.

Just down the road, the Old Brockway Golf Course touts itself as one of the region’s oldest and demands strong drives and a sound, short game. At night, visitors revel at memorable meals provided at a variety of restaurants such as Lanza’s (Italian), Caliente! (Mexican) and Jason’s (American), to mention a few. Kings Beach offers a plentiful variety of moderately priced accommodations, all with close proximity to all of North Tahoe’s ski resorts and snowmobiling outfitters. Kings Beach is the perfect home base for snow sports, sun sports and all kinds of outdoor recreation.

crystal bay Just above the glittering casinos in Crystal Bay, the Stateline Fire Lookout offers a vantage point unlike any other at Lake Tahoe. A short and scenic hike takes you to a point high above the Lake that is surrounded by dwarf oak and an old-growth pine forest. From this 7,077-foot-high crest, spectacular vistas of Crystal Bay, Brockway Springs and the entire Tahoe Basin unfold below you. Self-guided sign posts walk you through the history of the region, the stomping grounds of Mark Twain and many lumber barons in the 1800s. Today, this jewel is known more for dining, gaming and entertainment. The Cal-Neva Resort, The Crystal Bay Club and the Tahoe Biltmore Lodge and Casino each offer excellent dining, gaming, hotel rooms and a bustling music scene. The Crystal Bay’s Crown Room stage and Red Room Cabaret offer world-class rock, blues, jazz and comedy and, of course, dancing, every day of the week. The Cal-Neva, once owned by Frank Sinatra and frequented by the likes of the Rat Pack, the Kennedys and Marilyn Monroe, straddles the border of California and Nevada. It’s rumored to be these famous celebs. For a bit of romance, the Soule Domain restaurant, adjacent to the soon-tobe-re-developed Tahoe Biltmore, offers fine dining in a historic log cabin built by Harry Riley at the same time as the original Cal Neva Lodge in 1927. The hearth, in the Indian Room, features stones quarried at Crystal Bay and exposed log beams from local mills.

tahoe city Washoe tribesmen named their campsite in the corner of Lake Tahoe “Daubey Odu”­—roughly translated as “running over,” referring not to the Lake but to the riches of the area’s fish and game. However, Tahoe’s true wealth was not discovered until 1864 when local prospectors laid out a small town at the intersection of the Truckee River, Lake Tahoe’s only outlet, and the Lake, and named the town Tahoe City. Located just 15 miles from the I-80 corridor, Tahoe City’s miles of shoreline rest both north and west along Lake Tahoe. An array of year-round activities—including snow sports in winter, and hiking, biking, camping, fishing, and water sports in summer—make our small town a wonderful place to spend time with the family, enjoy world-class recreation or just relax and enjoy the view. As Tahoe City’s rich history gives way to contemporary recreation and relaxation, the multi-season amenities and activities continue to make it a town with unstoppable charm. Tahoe City is one of Tahoe’s most popular destinations because of its quaint downtown shopping and dining district and some of North Lake Tahoe’s most authentic local dining establishments, from classic cuisine to burgers, served from cozy firesides in the winter or lakeside in the summer.

In summer, Commons Beach, the heart of downtown, comes alive with kayakers, swimmers, sunbathers, evening movies and free concerts on the beach. The nearby farmers’ market is just the ticket for stocking up for a week of picnics and beach barbecues. Just a stone’s throw away is the historic “Fanny Bridge,” named after what you see of the tourists who often line the sidewalk on the Lake side to ogle the monster rainbow trout awaiting handouts. Under “Fanny Bridge,” where the Lake flows into the Truckee River, you can learn about Lake Tahoe history at the Gatekeeper’s Museum. The museum was once the cabin home of the first Watermaster charged with controlling water flow out of the Lake. Another historical building on the site is the original Watson Cabin, Tahoe City’s oldest and a testament to simple pioneer living. In the winter, Tahoe City is a popular destination due to its proximity to the mountains. Squaw Valley and Alpine Meadows are just a 10-minute drive away. For that matter, any ski resort in North Lake Tahoe is a short and scenic drive away. Just a few steps from any of its fine lodging options, winter vacationers will find easy access to backcountry and Nordic trails. Cross-country skiers and snowshoeers will revel in the Lake vistas at Tahoe Cross Country Ski Area, and enjoy a steaming hot cocoa at one of the area’s well-stocked huts.

west shore In 1909, Arthur Jost built a small pier and hotel at the water’s edge five miles south of Tahoe City in a sheltered section of lake under the shadow of Ellis Peak. He called his friendly resort “Homewood, and all the name implies.” Today, the location’s real charm rests along the 21 miles of its shoreline, with bike paths and beaches in the summer months and, in winter, Homewood Mountain Resort (one of Tahoe’s “secret” ski destinations). West Shore also boasts the newly refurbished 1960 Winter Olympic Cross Country ski trails at Sugar Pine Point State Park, complete with an Olympic display at the Carriage House. Nothing beats the thrills found at the historic sledding hill at Granlibakken Resort. Homewood Mountain Resort has always retained an air of adventure and has been a favorite lair for hardboiled skiers from near and far, who are attracted to the resort’s tree-protected runs, nostalgic atmosphere and views that encompass the dramatic panorama of Lake Tahoe shoreline. After an unforgettable day of skiing, feed your craving for a casual pizza with a pie from locals’ favorite West Side Pizza.

Summertime is magical on the West Shore. Bike paths along the Lake deliver one breathtaking view after another. For the more adventurous rider, the Tahoe Rim Trail can be accessed by Granlibakken Resort or the Truckee River, and from here can take mountain bikers to the spectacular Paige Meadows. Stunning beaches provide the perfect venue for picnics and relaxation. Spectacular scenery is only a part of the West Shore’s enchantment. From the stately Ehrmann Mansion at Sugar Pine Point in Tahoma, to the beaches of Meeks Bay, to Eagle Rock and the Emerald Bay trailheads’ gateway to Desolation Wilderness and to the grandeur of D.L. Bliss State Park, the West Shore is an exciting elixir of recreation and relaxation. If you are looking for a glimpse of some of the classic wooden boats that Tahoe is famous for, visit the Tahoe Maritime Museum and explore the rich history of these spectacular yachts. And if you wish to become a part of this spectacular scenery, create your own adventures afloat with a kayak or paddleboard from West Shore Sports. For an appealing retreat at day’s end, the warming ambiances of the West Shore Café and Sunnyside Resort are both lively choices for those sunset quenchers or for diners just starting the evening.

northstar california Little did George Schaeffer realize 140 years ago that the site of his logging camp would become home to some of North America’s best skiing and riding. Today, boarders and skiers rocket down mile-long runs from the backside of Northstar California’s Mt. Pluto or carve off-piste turns through stands of lodgepole from the top of Sawtooth Ridge. While the backside of Northstar California offers everything from ridgeline cruising to narrow bump trails and steep drops, the resort’s front side combines lightly forested glades and wide boulevard groomers that stretch to an expanding base area. Northstar California’s family programs are some of the best in North America, but it is the resort’s billion-dollar expansion that is creating the most buzz. The Village at Northstar offers visitors an appealing array of world-class accommodations, shops, restaurants and skating rink, all with ski-in, ski-out accessibility. Sheer luxury is discovered at the mid-mountain Ritz-Carlton hotel that features a world-class spa in addition to the uncompromising ambiance that is The Ritz-Carlton. Summer months, the destination revels with a full calendar of special events, music, roller skating and more. Guests can partake in activities such as hiking, mountain biking (Northstar California is the premier bike park in Northern California), golfing, fly fishing and scenic lift rides, all in a dog- and family-friendly environment.

truckee Named by its first pioneers after the residing Paiute chief Tru-ki-zo, and called “Truckee” by the emigrants he helped guide west, the historic railroad settlement prides itself on being all things to all people. It retains the feel of an authentic mountain town yet has grown into a genuine and sophisticated community, chock-full of excellent dining, quality lodging and unique shopping. It maintains a legacy as one of the Wild West’s favorite watering holes. Truckee’s quaint downtown corridor swells with unabashed nightlife and rows of galleries, shops and restaurants. From Columbia to cabernet, Marmot to merlot, revelers feast on everything from sushi and steaks to pasta and pizza at signature restaurants such as Moody’s Bistro, Pianeta, Pacific Crest, Dragonfly and Cottonwood at Hilltop. For a dose of local color, you can visit a variety of funky bars or trendy lounges, all within walking distance of each other in the downtown area. Set against a bold blue sky and rugged Sierra Nevada, and centrally located within minutes of eight world-class ski resorts and Lake Tahoe, the town is an adventure base camp. Thrill seekers explore the vast backcountry. Others escape to their own solitude, fishing and exploring the area’s numerous lakes and streams. Golfers enjoy the abundance of challenging greens and fairways at some of the region’s best golf courses—Coyote Moon, Old Greenwood, Gray’s Crossing and Northstar California, to name a few.

incline village Incline Village occupies the most northern niche of Lake Tahoe. This Nevada town received its name from “the Great Incline of the Sierra Nevada,” a funicular, or railway, that was used to carry timber from Lake Tahoe over the mountain to the silver mines around Virginia City. Today, the Flume Trail uses the route of the historic flume, and is one of the most famous mountain bike rides in the world. The backside of the trail is home to Diamond Peak Ski Resort, a premier Lake Tahoe family resort, where visitors can take in the spectacular scenery and views of the Lake. Just a 10-minute drive over the mountain is Mt. Rose Ski Tahoe, a resort famous for its vistas of both the Lake to the west and the high desert valley to the east. Mt. Rose offers affordable lift tickets and packages to a variety of terrain, from family friendly groomers to super steep, tree-lined chutes. The Thunderbird Lodge is one of the most lavish and fascinating estates on the Lake. Learn about amenities, such as an underground tunnel and an elephant house. For those who want to learn more about this spectacular lake, The Tahoe Environmental Research Center—a Sierra Nevada College, Desert Research Institute and University of California, Davis collaboration—provides a look into the

Just a short drive from Incline Village is Sand Harbor, where swimmers can explore polished rock formations, turquoise water and miles of soft sandy beach. Each summer Sand Harbor is host to the famous Lake Tahoe Shakespeare Festival, and with Tahoe as a backdrop, the Bard never looked better. Incline Village boasts the Championship and Mountain Golf Courses, two exquisite world-renowned layouts designed by Robert Trent Jones, Sr., that afford jaw-dropping Lake and mountain views. The town boasts a variety of shopping options, and you can take your pick from the unique shops, galleries and top-notch dining options tucked around this beautiful village. World-class restaurants, such as Fredrick’s and Le Bistro, are sure to tempt even the most discerning palates. After dinner, enjoy a walk along Lakeshore Boulevard and take a peek at its lavish homes. A favorite dinner and evening cocktail spot is the Lone Eagle Grille, the Hyatt Regency Lake Tahoe’s award-winning lakefront dining room. Imagine a blazing fire ring on the Hyatt’s beach, under a full moon that reflects in a mirror-like lake and you’ll know why the Lone Eagle Grille is a favorite local spot for romance. From luxurious accommodations to soothing spa treatments, the Hyatt Regency Lake Tahoe Resort, Spa and Casino offers the ultimate in pampering—a great way to wind down your days.

squaw valley With 3,600 skiable acres spread across six inspiring peaks, 29 lifts and some of the best snow in the world, Squaw Valley is a mecca for winter sports enthusiasts. Yet for all the eye-popping pitches, the mountain is friendly to all, from the novice to families. The resort’s five-year, $50-million renaissance has brought new restaurants, expanded family activities and new intermediate lifts. Squaw Valley joined forces with neighboring Alpine Meadows in November 2011, skiers and riders can now enjoy 6,000 skiable acres, 43 lifts, six terrain parks and over 270 trails on one lift ticket.

alpine meadows Off-piste wilderness skiing, flawlessly groomed cruiser runs and wide-open bowls of powder make Alpine Meadows a bastion of Sierra Nevada skiing and snowboarding. This resort’s high valley floor (6,835 feet) guarantees abundant snowfall. Even better than the snow is the terrain that covers 2,400 acres of glades, groomers and the resort’s famous steeps. Its multitude of fall-lines offers views of cobalt-colored Lake Tahoe from nearly every run. The Chalet—Alpine’s mountainside restaurant—is located in a nest of pine trees midway up the mountain. It’s a great place to rendezvous and sit on the deck enjoying sandwiches, quiche and homemade soups. The favorite après-ski hot spot at Alpine Meadows is the Last Chair Bar & Grill. Located in the lodge just steps from your real last chair, it features favorite drafts and microbrews, select wines and delicious appetizers such as nachos and hot wings as well as hot paninis and other signature menu items. Live music in the Last Chair is a tried-and-true transition from ski boots to dancing shoes. Down the road, the bar in the historic River Ranch Lodge is a local gathering place with front row views of the Truckee River. A day of exploring Alpine’s legendary terrain is religiously followed by gathering at River Ranch.
