Our experience did not start out the best. Allow me to explain... My husband and I booked hotel reservations and spa services about a month prior to our visit. We were so excited to spend the weekend in Tahoe at such a beautiful establishment. When we arrived to our spa appointment we were greeted by the manager. To my delight it was the same person I had previously spoken with that book our appointments. She had a delightful accent, and after speaking with her twice on the phone (once to book, and a second time to confirm) it was no mistake that it was the same person. We were so excited to begin our 80 minutes of relaxation. However, when we provided her with our names and appointment time, she could not find us in their system. As we stood and waited approximately 5 minutes elapsed while she frantically searched for our reservation. With no success, she apologized profusely and offered 2 complimentary massages during our next visit. She also offered us to complimentary gift bags. We decided it would beveirth tge two hour drive to return the following month. Of course I asked for some sort of "proof" as I had little confidence in their "system". She gave me her personal cell phone # with which she provided a follow up text message. About a month later, I called the resort to redeem our two complimentary messages. It was another voice on the other end of the phone this time. She was very helpful as she reserved our appointments. I explained the mix up from our previous reservation and she was equally apologetic. She told me that the manager who made the mistake was no longer employed with the spa but that she would honor the complimentary massages. We faced a few more hiccups along the way (e.g rescheduling due to sick employees) but the new management remained communicative and accommodating. And boy did they honor the massages!!! Wow. The Massage Hand down. One of the best massages I have ever recieved. I am a bit of a massage snob, so I know a quality massage when I feel it. I had the Mountain massage and it was pure bliss. A perfect blend of Swedish, trigger point therapy, and gentle stretching. They even provided complimentary enhancements that included aroma therapy. I felt completely relaxed at the end of the session. Oh yah, and the also have a beautiful locker room and sanctuary area to rest and prepare for your massage! They took all of tge necessary precautions for Covid and we couldn't have asked for a better experience. Well done Megan and to all of the staff at Squaw Creek. You turned a bad experience into a 5 star review. Thank you for your time and dedication to serve your customers well.

Take a panoramic 10 minute ride that climbs 2,000 vertical feet and soars above a mountainscape of granite rock, waterfalls and the iconic Tram Face. And that's just the beginning. Once you reach your destination at High Camp, located at 8,200', breathe in the fresh mountain air and immerse yourself in the High Sierra. Whether you're looking to set out on one of the many hiking and walking trails, cool off in the mountaintop pool and hot tub or take a spin around the roller rink overlooking Lake Tahoe, there is something to spark everyone's inner mountain explorer.
Our family of 4 spent the afternoon at Squaw Valley. We ate at the Dubliner ( would highly recommend the Chicken Boxty with Whiskey cream and the Rueben Fries!!) The tram was such a fun ride during the summer- so much and so far to see! We walked on several trails and enjoyed the views and wildflowers. There are so many things to do here-swim, hike, mt bike, etc. Smoke from the Yosemite fires blew in which obscured the views late in the afternoon but it was still amazing! Would love to ski here someday!
