South Lake Tahoe Travel


South Lake Tahoe sits next to Stateline on the Nevada border. A mountain resort with gambling casinos, ski slopes, golf and many sports, you'll discover a very European blend of athletic endeavors and amazing nightlife that really lets go. Walk on the wild side with extreme fun, romance, gambling, entertainment all night long and and skiing in Heavenly Ski Slope surroundings.South Lake Tahoe isn't just a fantastic mountain vacation, it is also a great California lake vacation.

If you visit in the summer, you may still need to take a jacket. While snow skiing in the mountains is a given, summers in this high altitude destination can be cool or even chilly.

On a business trip to South Lake Tahoe, I didn't have time to ski during the visit, but did arrive in a snowstorm of proportions that attracted many skiers to the slopes at Heavenly Mountain Ski Resort. My hotel room was secured as part of my work arrangement, so I didn't worry about the rooms being sold out.

Not bringing many winter clothes, I discovered that you can pretty much get around to Starbucks coffee, dining, shopping, and even gambling (if that's you're interest), through a network of tunnels that connect casinos such as Harvey's to the California side of the road where I stayed in a hotel. All I had to do was enter the street level escalator, then head under the street along the corridors of the casino complex, over to my coffee shop. In four days of stay I stepped outside into a blizzard maybe a few times, but for the most part, only needed a light jacket, sweaters, etc.
