Set on the edge of Lake Tahoe – and steps from a ski resort – you can snow ski in the winter and water ski in the summer.

A bags-game-on-the-lawn and canoe-paddles-over-the-mantle kind place – happily hosting guests since 1972.

Classy rooms (minus the ’tude) and spa-inspired baths keep us comfy and relaxed… and did we mention comfy?

Spicy music. Spicier New Orleans dishes and oh-so-good oysters at The Oyster Bar.

Totally re-imagined with a modern take on throwback chic, with luxe touches like Malin + Goetz bath amenities.

Refresh at SpringHill Suites Truckee. Our new Truckee CA hotel offers little extras that add up to an exceptional stay.

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

Rustic-modern style brings posh down to earth. Revel in lakeside views, leather lounge chairs & stone fireplaces – dress code free. (No stuffy jacket rule here.)

You’ve got your pick of outdoors-y to-dos around this gem, ranging from hiking to river rafting (ask the adventure concierge for a killer rec).

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

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

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

Set on the edge of Lake Tahoe – and steps from a ski resort – you can snow ski in the winter and water ski in the summer.

Skiing, hiking, shopping, gaming – not knowing what to do next is the best kind of problem.

Sneak just across the border to Stateline and have some legal casino fun.

Comfy rooms in a flawless location near the lake and within walking distance of casinos and restaurants.

Close to Heavenly Village shops & dining – plus outdoorsy adventures. The gondola’s right outside, and the lakeside beach and marina are walkable.

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).

That view from the doorstep? Oh, just the Sierra Nevada. NBD.

Warm, gooey cinnamon rolls at the complimentary hot breakfast make our morning.

Breakfast is basic, but tasty and free.

Why does breakfast taste so much better when someone else makes it for you? We don’t know, but the theory is proven here.

Idyllically situated atop the Sierra Nevadas (aka jaw-dropping views all around).
