Lake Tahoe ski holidays

Lake Tahoe

Diverse skiing and nightlife in a stunning lakeside ski resort

Skiing Lake Tahoe has to be one of the most unique experiences. The resort of South Lake Tahoe straddles the California/Nevada border where gambling is legal and the après ski entertainment is as glitzy and as 'Vegas' as you want it. With our accommodation set around the resort the large ski area of Heavenly is on your doorstep.
Access to the other resorts is easy by both road and water so every day on the slopes can be different.
All in all, a ski holiday like no other!

Our opinion

Lake Tahoe has 12 ski areas around it providing winter sports for all! The most famous is Heavenly with a fantastic snow record and runs in both California and Nevada. The brand new gondola linking the hotels on South Lake Tahoe to Heavenly makes access quick and easy. The other resorts around the lake can be reached by local bus services, paddle steamer across the lake (high season only) or with your rental free car (car hire is recommended for Tahoe).
