Several times a year there are Craft Fairs set up outside the Horizon. July 4th and Labor Day are the best.
Quick Tips:
Best low cost Prime Rib: Lakeside Casino Restaurant.
Golfing in the Basin is ho-hum, but there are some nice places in Carson Valley. Sierra Ranch is our favorite.
Heavenly has great skiing but there are some really great alternatives to it - Sierra at Tahoe and Alpine Meadows are just two of them.
Best Way To Get Around:
Rent A Car or SUV - it allows you drive around the lake at your pace and soak in all the beauty.
The bus and shuttle service is excellent and available as an alternative from Harrah's and other local casinos.
You can walk almost anywhere around town.
