Wows and Woes
There are affordable ski and snowboarding schools for men, women and children. Their lift tickets and season passes, however, are very pricey, because of the central location in Lake Tahoe. There are also several dining options and rental shops, with a daily event calendar offered to guests.
Insider Tips
As of 2009, the resort is creating a sustainability plan, so there may be some construction underway over the next couple of years. Make sure to check the website for reports. The website also offers seasonal specials as well as deals throughout the year.
Bottom Line
A great central location that's worth the splurge if you can afford it, but make sure to check the website to avoid construction times and to get a special rate.
