On your way up the Gondola at Heavenly, be sure to get off at the observation deck! You will think you are on top of the world! The sight of the azure Lake Tahoe surrounded by the Sierra mountains is truly breathtaking. I would even venture to say it's a great place for a proposal! Get back on the Gondola... More

We have a family trip (usually 6-10 from ages 4-68) every year to South Lake Tahoe which always includes stays at Harrah's/Harvey's Lake Tahoe Casinos and skiing on Heavenly Mountain which has trails that go from the Nevada side of the mountain in Stateline, NV to the California side (which has all the casinos at the bottom of the Gondola...

Skied the last week of March and was afraid it would be slushy snow, but we lucked out with great spring skiing. We were fogged in to start with but when the clouds lifted and we turned around at the top, it was just beautiful to see the lake. The food in the lodges were expensive, but good eating.

No local deals on lift tickets Recommendations - book in advance online... More

Heavenly has really improved in the last couple of decades. Kudos to those with the vision to turn a frumpy ski resort and tattered town into a luxury experience. More

First and formost, not at work and skiing over Lake Tahoe has never gotten old! Heavenly definately is a tall big mountain and has just about anything for anybody. They make up grades on various things every year, so just keeps getting better and better as the years pass. Do definately agree with other reviews as to having to alot... More

Heavenly towers over Lake Tahoe, as everyone knows. Its views from above are spectacular. On certain parts of the mountain you can even see the lake on your left and the arid Nevada valleys on your right.
