One more place to enjoy near Lake Tahoe in California
Northstar California Resort may be smaller compared to Palisades Tahoe or Heavenly Resort, with its 3,170 acres and around 100 slopes. However, don’t let its size fool you. This resort is highly regarded among the best ski resorts in the Western region. To cater to the overwhelming number of eager skiers, Northstar even built an “express gondola” for faster access to the slopes.
Northstar offers a variety of activities for every season. In addition to skiing and snowboarding, you can enjoy ice skating and snowshoeing during the winter months. When summer arrives, you can go swimming and biking. Kids will have a blast at the kid-friendly slopes and the exciting rides in the Kids Adventure Zones. After an active day, take some time to unwind at the spa. The resort also has a movie theater, shops, and eateries to explore. Visitors have praised the resort’s fantastic trails and family-friendly offerings, although they mentioned that it can get crowded at times and there may be occasional service issues.
