Food Scene

We like to either sit in the bar and have a burger and a Margarita, or go into the restaurant as the view of downtown is really nice. The place is Rustic Truckee with lots of character.

It's a hip coffee shop with good food, coffee and tea. You will feel comfortable hanging out there looking at your computer and watching life go by.

Lobster roll, sit at the counter casual place. Small and good eats. Not the least expensive place in town but great fish lunches.

AMAZING food. It's where food is art. If you are wanting a big meal, don't go here. If you want a different, fresh, unusual, creative and a delicious dinner, make a reservation here. It won't be cheap but tasty and memorable. Plan on $100. each at a minimum and that may be without drinks. The space is also beautiful and service top notch. I think they are on there way to becoming a 5 star Michelon restaurant.

The CBC has music all the time. It depends on what music you like, it's usually music for the younger crowd, or maybe it's also because the music starts late but we go once in a while and our 22 year old daughter goes much more often. It just depends on who's playing.

Sightseeing

Everyone must see Lake Tahoe. It's a miracle in itself, just so beautiful. Take a dip in the summer time.

Entertainment & Activities

We like skiing at Alpine because it has a pretty mellow scene. You can also ski out of bounds there. The only thing at the base of the mountain is the day lodge. No housing or condos, no restaurant or village. Just there for the skiing.

The most scenic mountain bike ride in the world, or close to it. Moderate ability level. You must be comfortable with exposure and narrow trails. The views are out of this world. The trail is not technical but if you went off the trail you could potentially slide hundreds of feet in some areas.
