At Squaw Valley, after conquering the slopes, go tubing with the kids or try out the mini snowmobiles at SnoVentures Activity Zone. There are dogsledding tours too!

In every season, the Village at Squaw Valley offers dining, shopping, the Squaw Valley Aerial Tram, and a variety of activities.

In the summer, ride the Aerial Tram to High Camp then choose a scenic trail and walk or hike in one of the most breathtaking places in the world! At 8,200 feet elevation, admire the beauty of the Sierra Nevada Mountains with views of Lake Tahoe and Squaw Valley's legendary granite peaks. In the Aerial Tram building lobby, kids and grownups can have a blast climbing the variety of routes on the 30’ simulated Headwall Climbing Wall.

Everything felt clean and cozy but the carpeting itself, especially near the entrance seemed tired and ground in dirty. But all in all, considering the unit is in a ski and outdoor activities area, served my purposes very well and I would highly recommend the same unit and management group!

Overall, this townhouse was just OK. With some basic amenities and some modern updates it could be a five star experience.As some of the other reviews have stated, a lot of the amenities inside this home were outdated, broken, we’re just needed a refresh. Linens were fraying. Furniture was definitely old and needing to be replaced. Dishwasher had a malfunction. Oven had a malfunction. Sink faucet in the kitchen was broken. Some outlets weren’t working. Most of the dishes and silverware felt like it was from a yard sale from the 1970s. Be prepared to bring everything yourself, there is very little livable amenities. On the plus side, it was pretty clean and a quiet location with plenty of parking and good access to Northlake Tahoe.We would stay here again as it’s perfect for a couple as there is really only one closed off bedroom, but only if the property management/owners did a review of all the issues in the property first and did some basic upgrades.
