Lake Tahoe · Where to stay

On the Nevada shore with its own beach, a golf course to the water, and the best rooms on the lake.

Mid-mountain at Northstar, ski-in ski-out, with a gondola down to the village.

Truckee's old railway main street is fifteen minutes from three resorts and much cheaper than the lakeshore.

At the base of Palisades, small, with a very good wine list and a heated pool you use in a snowstorm.

Sharp, cheap rooms with a beer garden and a fake indoor campsite, two minutes from the Heavenly gondola.
