Tahoe Summer!

All the toys are out at Tonopalo and the property is looking great! Get up here and enjoy some Tahoe time!

Start the weekend with a free Friday night outdoor concert at Northstar. The Vagabond Opera will be playing the Village Stage from 7-9pm. This is part of Northstar's Summer Kickoff which takes place all weekend at the resort.

If you miss the Friday concert visit Commons Beach in Tahoe City for a free lakefront concert on Sunday featuring Albino! There are not many better places to watch a concert.......a free concert at that.

Hike of the Week. Check out the hike of the week from http://www.tahoeloco.com/, the five lakes trail. This is a great day hike in Alpine Meadows. Pack a picnic and hike to these beautiful alpine lakes. HERE are the directions.

It looks like a gorgeous summer weekend so get on the water! Book the Tonopalo Formula or jetskis. You might notice a couple of new items on the beach, specifically a new hobiecat sailboat and stand up paddleboards. The paddleboards are all the rage and you can find them all over the lake these days. Grab a board at Tonopalo and give it a try.

Summer is Really Coming.....I Promise

What a wet June! It has been a wet one up here which has kept things a little slow as of late, but water is much needed in these parts so there are no complaints here. That being said it looks like we are back to typical June weather this weekend with a forecast for clear skies and temps in the mid 70s.

So, bring the boat up (or reserve the Tonopalo Formula), rent some jet skis, try the new paddleboards, bring a good book for the beach, bikes, hiking boots, and all the rest of the toys, cause it's on. Summer in Tahoe!!

There will be plenty to keep you entertained at Tonopalo, but just in case you are out and about here are some other events happening this weekend.

The 37th annual Concours d'Elegance kicks off this Friday at Sierra Boat Co. just down the street in Carnelian Bay. If you enjoy classic wooden boats this is not to be missed. Be sure to look for Clementine, a woody owned by your fellow Tonopalo owners the Linnemans.

Don't miss Tahoe City's summer kick off this weekend, the Summer Solstice Festival includes live music, car shows, and a paddlefest at Commons Beach.

For the bikers out there, the Tour de Nez will be taking place this weekend with a variety of bike races and events throughout the area. The main event will take place Saturday at Northstar. The Thursday night race in downtown Truckee is one of my favorites and I would recommend it if you are up here then.

Summer has kicked off and there is more than enough going on to keep you busy. If you have any questions about events or if there is anything else you need please let me know!

Brighter Skies Ahead?

It has been a wet week up here with showers and thunderstorms just about every day. The temperatures have been nice and the mornings are generally beautiful, but as I recommended last week, get out and ejoy the outdoors early as the afternoons have been bringing unsettled weather.

Another continuation from last week is the great Northstar golf deal. $39 rounds of golf Monday through Thursday this week, June 8th-11th. Advanced tee times are required. Call the pro shop at 530.562.3290

This Saturday is The Bay to Bay Community Clean Up Day in North Lake Tahoe. The clean up will take place along community beaches of North Lake Tahoe. If you are reading this and plan on being in Tahoe it is probably for some vacation time, but if you are on the beach and see a peice of garbage it would be a great gesture to get it to the appropriate trash can. If you would like more information about the event visit http://www.ntbamainstreet.org/.

This Tuesday is the opening day of the Kings Beach Farmer's Market at the Kings Beach State Recreation Area parking lot from 9am-1pm. Where better to visit a farmers market than at the beach on Lake Tahoe?

Other weekend events include a full moon kayak with Tahoe City Kayaks and the annual Truckee Duckee Derby at River Ranch. Plenty to do so come up and enjoy it.
