Quirky-yet-comfy rooms feature refreshing style with a hint of retro.

Walk to shopping, dining and casinos. Or bundle up and hit the slopes. 5 resorts nearby.

An easy drive to restaurants galore, so your room’s kitchenette may not get much use (though it’s there if ya need it).

Granlibakken is Norwegian for ‘hill sheltered by trees.’ Makes sense cuz there's a whooole lot of 'em. PS: possible bear sightings!

Could not be any closer to the pristine beach. And the pool and hot tub are right there too. Just sayin'.

Originally built for the 1960 Winter Olympic delegation, rustic, this place is not. Luxe linens and posh bath amenities await.

Family owned for 4 generations, perched on 4 acres, starring nearly 250 full-grown pines – yet just a mile from Tahoe City.

650-acre resort has no shortage of space to explore or vistas to take in.

Hotel pool for when you feel like getting splashy.

Authentic Mexican joint onsite (don’t leave without trying the guac) + spot-on home-style fare at the 24-hour grill (aka your eats are more than covered).

Fancy a dip? Pop into the hotel pool.

Breakfast is basic, but tasty and free.

Comfy furnishings in spacious rooms are a welcome break from in-flight conditions.

Tweet, post, pin and ‘gram with reckless abandon. Thank you, free WiFi.

Hey hey, free breakfast every day.

Renovated rooms with amazing views – even rock legends would pause before trashing these beauts.
