ABOUT THE AREA Olympic Valley is home to Palisades Tahoe (formerly Squaw/Alpine), one of the largest ski areas in North Lake Tahoe and the host of the 1960 Winter Olympics. With 6,000 skiable acres, 43 chairlifts, and the only funitel in the U.S., Palisades Tahoe is a dream destination for skiers and snowboarders alike. Perfectly located between Truckee and North Lake Tahoe, you’re just minutes away from everything the region has to offer.
The benefits of staying in Olympic Valley are unbeatable. Skip the traffic and parking headaches by taking advantage of the Mountaineer Door-to-Door Ski Shuttle, which brings you right to the slopes. Beyond skiing, the area offers a variety of winter activities, including ice skating, snow tubing, cross-country skiing, and snowshoeing. The Village at Palisades Tahoe provides an array of dining, après options, retail shops, and even a yoga studio for some post-ski relaxation. Enjoy a seamless connection to Alpine Meadows via the 16-minute gondola ride, which links 6,000 acres of world-class terrain, connecting The Village, Alpine Lodge, and the iconic KT-22.
Olympic Valley is just as spectacular in summer. Located at the base of Palisades Tahoe, you can play a round at the Links Golf Course or bike along the scenic Truckee River Trail. The Village offers guided hikes and the chance to conquer the Tahoe Via Ferrata. Take the Tram to High Camp for roller skating, disc golf, or geocaching, and stop by Granite Bistro for lunch and stunning Sierra Mountain views at 8,400 feet.
For hiking enthusiasts, the Shirley Canyon Trail is a must-do, with waterfalls, granite boulders, wildflowers, and the picturesque Shirley Lake. After a 2,000-foot elevation gain, a complimentary Tram ride brings you back to the Village. And when you're ready for a day at the lake, sandy beaches are just 15 minutes from your door, offering the perfect summer retreat.
The apartment is heated and features a patio and 2 bathrooms, and there's space to spread out with 3 bedrooms. Other standard amenities include a washing machine, a fireplace, and a microwave.

Ski trip
Condo was fantastic for a 6 adults.Plenty of room for 3 couples. Pictures were as advertised. Big windows, high ceiling and decks in the family/great room were fantastic. Mountaineer shuttle was easy to access to get to the ski area.Host was great, she let us know there was wood in the fireplace ready for us to have a fire.Definitely would stay here again.

Wonderful Place, Location, and Host--Thanks Kirsten!
This was the ideal place for a week-long family ski trip to Palisades Tahoe. It worked out perfectly for my family of 3 and my brother's family of 4 (and certainly could have fit a few more). The unit was just as advertised, comfortable, clean, and well-stocked. It's just down the road from the resort and included with the stay is access to the Mountaineer, a free personal shuttle you can order from an app on your phone to the door of the unit straight to the mountain. The unit is also located on a fantastic property you can explore (there's some great sledding just outside the back door, which my brother's young teenagers absolutely loved). Walking paths abound in the area as well. I also must say that Kirsten was a uniquely gracious and accommodating host. Not only was she highly communicative and attentive to our needs (both before and during the trip), she bent over backwards to make our stay comfortable, including receiving some of our ski equipment that we shipped in advance and even buying and delivering baby gates for us (amongst our group was my 15-month old son--the place was great for him too). In sum, this is a gem, would definitely recommend for anyone heading out to explore Tahoe.

10/10!!!
We stayed here for a long weekend and it was everything perfect! Kirsten was the best host, and the house was in perfect conditions - clean, with enough space, and with everything we needed. We went skiing and used the free shuttle - so useful!
