Imagine having your own cabin as your winter base camp this ski season. With a 5-month ski-lease, you can bring your gear up for the season and have it waiting for your weekend getaways.

Over the last week, snow has returned to Lake Tahoe, with the upper mountains receiving about 5 inches, and an inch of snow at the lower elevations. More snow is forecast for the 2nd week of November.

Most of the ski resorts have snow-making capabilities. Many are scheduled to open the weekend prior to Thanksgiving for the 2024/2025 ski season. This includes Northstar and Palisades Tahoe.

Our winter leases consist of a 5-month lease beginning December 2024, or a 4-month lease beginning on January 3, 2025.
