Learn more about Kirkwood

Tucked into the Sierra Nevada mountains, this intimate ski resort offers powder hounds the rare joy of uncrowded slopes and pristine conditions. Kirkwood Mountain Resort delivers thrilling runs for every skill level, from beginner-friendly to challenging. After conquering the mountain, gather around crackling fire pits for hot cocoa and s'mores – a ritual that feels earned rather than touristy. Summer visitors can explore the surrounding Eldorado National Forest trails, where alpine meadows replace snow fields. For a perfect day trip, soak tired muscles at Grover Hot Springs State Park, where natural thermal pools sit surrounded by pine forests. The tiny year-round population ensures an authenticity that larger Tahoe resorts lost decades ago.

Station House Inn - Near Heavenly Gondola

10/10 Excellent

"We had the BEST stay, fro the moment we arrived to the moment we left! Greeted with a complimentary welcome drink of our choice, complimentary s'mores kits at night while sitting around the fire pit. Heated pool and hot tub was perfect for the chilly evenings. Games available in the lobby as well as coffee and water to refill our water bottles. And the most ideal location for South Lake. Walking distance to Heavenly village and lakeside Beach, so you never have to worry about parking. And the cherry on top is that they are dog friendly, weather you bring your fur baby or not, having dogs around makes every place more enjoyable!"

"The only thing I can say is the light over our door to the hotel didn’t work, and we arrived during the hotel front desk break time made it hard to check in"

Edgewood Tahoe Resort

8/10 Good

"I love this hotel overall, but the pillows are extremely uncomfortable. My family and I slept poorly and woke up with headaches. The bathrobes were also very wrinkled and looked as though they had been pulled straight from the dryer. A hotel of this caliber should provide comfortable pillows and neatly pressed bathrobes. Everything else was lovely."
