On busy holiday weekends, as long as you have your groceries, you can literally hike every day, enjoying different trails and views, without even getting in your car. We are so close to the Tahoe Rim trail and other trails.
If winter snow sports are your thing, we are really close to the Boulder and Stagecoach lifts and- if you know what you're doing, you can ski in/out from our place, or just catch the shuttle.
