Welcome to Lake Tahoe!

Olive Oil & Wine Tasting

Mark Twain called Tahoe “the fairest picture the whole earth affords”. Today, millions of visitors from around the world discover and share the refreshing allure of the cobalt blue lake, clear skies, clean air, and activities.

We welcome you to visit our Tasting Room & Bistro serving lunch and dinner all day, full bar also available. Only 20-minutes from Lake Tahoe.

Q 20

Lake Tahoe’s endless array of activities runs the gamut of the seasons. With a focus on the outdoors, Tahoe’s 72 miles of shoreline and surrounding mountain ranges provide a diversity that takes many trips to truly discover.

Not just a Winery any More.

Come Check out the Bistro.

The north shore, known for its pure and simple mountain personality, is home to the historic and quaint resort town of Truckee.

Squaw Valley — site of the 1960 Olympic Winter Games — is a must-visit, with its scenic Cable Car rides and all the events and activities in the base Village. Northstar’s Village offers fun for all ages, and numerous dining, shopping, and activity options are available in the enchanting lakeside towns of Sunnyside, Homewood, Tahoe City, Carnelian Bay, Tahoe Vista, and Kings Beach.

Crossing the border to Nevada, gaming and nightlife are added to the exciting mix in Crystal Bay and Incline Village, the northern gateway to the unparalleled beauty of the unspoiled east shore’s beaches.

Lake Tahoe’s southern shore embraces Emerald Bay, one of the most photographed locations in the world, which can be seen from scenic Highway 89, or via a spectacular ride on one of Tahoe’s famed paddlewheel cruises or other watercraft. Along the lake's shore, from Camp Richardson to Zephyr Cove, you will discover numerous spots to play, dine, and relax. Stateline is full of fun options with the Heavenly Village, spectacular views from the top of the Heavenly Gondola, and the nightlife and excitement of the casino resorts and nightclubs. A short drive south to Kirkwood and you can experience the LAKE TAHOE - Northern California & Northern Nevada thrill of Zip Tahoe’s year-round zipline.

To Redding

No less than seventeen renowned golf courses abound in the Lake Tahoe and High Sierra region. From the 70-degree comfort among Ponderosa pines and granite boulders around the Lake, to the rugged and beautiful arroyo-forced carries and sagebrush roughs in the Carson Valley, the region offers a golf experience to rival the world’s finest.
