The Warmth of a Fireplace

Families love the way a fire draws everyone together for stories, games, and laughter. Couples find it creates the perfect setting for a quiet night in.

Pine Haven Pleasanton, CA
Second time visiting Pine Haven. Great home, yard, and pet friendly! Spacious and clean with all amenities. Close to beach and casinos. This is going to be our annual stay (as long as it's available!). Have been using Lake Tahoe Accommodations for a few years now and will continue. Also, is cheaper than booking on Airbnb.
Winter Sports in Tahoe
Lake Tahoe transforms into a playground for winter enthusiasts as soon as the first snow blankets the region. Skiers and snowboarders flock to world-class resorts like Heavenly, Northstar, and Palisades Tahoe, where miles of groomed runs and fresh powder cater to every skill level. From wide beginner slopes to thrilling black diamond trails, the mountains provide options for both first-timers and seasoned pros.
Beyond downhill skiing, Tahoe offers countless ways to embrace the winter season. Strap on snowshoes and explore peaceful forest trails, or test your endurance with cross-country skiing across wide meadows. Families love sledding hills and tubing parks, while adventure seekers can try snowmobiling through the backcountry. Scenic gondola rides give you a bird’s-eye view of the snowy peaks and sparkling lake below, offering a more relaxed but equally unforgettable experience.
No matter your choice of activity, winter sports in Tahoe promise plenty of action and incredible scenery. At the end of each adventure, you’ll appreciate returning to a cozy vacation rental, where the warmth of a crackling fire and the comfort of mountain living make the day complete.
