So after working for Marriott as an advisor over Lake Tahoe for 6 years, I FINALLY made it over there!!!This is the famous Emerald Bay, and it is where some of the most famous things in Lake Tahoe are...
We had so much fun - and my favorite thing we did was to rent bikes and ride along the trails!
We thought the kids would have a ball too, but after 8 1/2 hours of car ride, I don't think they were exstatic to sit in the carrier for 3 hours.... :( oh well ;)-
I loved it, and it had been sooo long since I had ridden a bike, but it's like they say - You Never Forget!
We also took a Paddle Boat ride across the lake to Emerald Bay, which was a great way to get out on the lake and see around. The lake is really choppy, so boating can be a little crazy!
Timber Lodge had this fabulous restaurant called "Fire and Ice" that was soooo good. You would select what food off the ice you wanted and then take it to the grill and stand and watch them cook it for you!
It was all you can eat so we were sooo full!!!
But the coolest thing we did was pay to be at a private beach club to watch the fireworks over the lake. The barges that set them off were right in front of us and the fireworks went off right over our heads. They also did them to music so it was really cool!
Here we are waitinig around at the beach and in the dark for them to start.
The lake is gorgeous and HUGE!
We hiked up to a waterfall - we thought we would do a lot more hiking, but NOT WITH KIDS :)-
They were done after 10 minutes,.... next time we will go alone!
There is also a lot of bordering lakes around, and they are just as pretty and more secluded. This one is a small one off the beaten path called Lake Lily.
It was great to finally see the property and lake. It was a wonderful place to visit!
