    5 minutes to the gondola. Free shuttle pickup at the cabin.

    The cabin is in Olympic Valley — formerly known as Squaw Valley, host of the 1960 Winter Olympics. Palisades Tahoe's base lifts and Village are ½ mile away. You're on the valley floor, not out on the highway fighting lift-access traffic.

    During ski season, the free Mountaineer Shuttle picks up directly at the cabin — leave the car, skip the parking scramble, and ride to the lifts on your own schedule. Especially useful on powder days when the Village lot fills early.

    Why a ski house beats a lodge room for groups

    Ski lodge rooms are convenient if you're traveling solo or as a couple. For groups of 4–8, the math and the experience both shift.

    Ski lodge / hotel rooms

    ✕4 hotel rooms for 8 people = $1,200–$2,000/night
    ✕No kitchen — every meal is a restaurant trip
    ✕Shared walls, hallway traffic, noise
    ✕Gear piled in the corner of a small room
    ✕No common space to gather after skiing
    ✕Standard checkout cuts into your last ski day

    Guests describe it as a "private ski lodge-style cabin" — the warmth of a lodge without the hotel-room constraints.

    Built for ski trips

    The layout is designed for the ski-week rhythm — early mornings, long days on the mountain, and evenings you actually want to be in your accommodations.

    Living room with gas fireplace at the Lake Tahoe ski cabin

    Gas fireplace living room

    After a cold day on the mountain, the fireplace living room is where the group lands. Comfortable seating for 8+, a gas fireplace, and enough space to actually spread out.

    Full kitchen with breakfast bar at the Olympic Valley ski house

    Full kitchen + breakfast bar

    Ski trip breakfasts are better from a real kitchen. Full appliances, breakfast bar seating, and enough counter space for an actual prep. Saves considerably vs. eating out every meal for a group of 8.

    Great in summer too

    The cabin books year-round. Summer brings the Wanderlust Festival, Broken Arrow Skyrace, Western States 100, the Lake Tahoe Reggae Festival, and free outdoor concerts every week — all within walking distance of the Village. If you're planning a summer trip, the events guide has the full calendar.

    Ski house — quick questions

    What guests ask before booking a ski trip.

    The cabin is in Olympic Valley, ½ mile from the Village at Palisades Tahoe. The gondola and base lifts are a short drive from the front door — most guests are parked and clicking in within 5 minutes.

    Cost per person, mostly. A hotel lodge room for 8 people means 4 rooms at $300–$500/night each. The cabin is one booking that sleeps 8, with a full kitchen for ski-trip breakfasts and après-ski dinners, a fireplace living room to decompress in, and no hallway check-ins or shared walls. Groups consistently find it cheaper and better than hotel alternatives.

    Yes. Olympic Valley — formerly known as Squaw Valley — was the host venue for the 1960 Winter Olympics. Palisades Tahoe (formerly Squaw Valley Alpine Meadows) is the resort that operates there today. The mountain and terrain are unchanged — just a new name.

    Ski-in/ski-out lodge rooms are convenient but typically sleep 2–4 in a hotel-style room. The cabin sleeps 8 across 4 private bedrooms, has a full kitchen, and costs less per person for groups. You're trading a direct slopeside position for space, privacy, and a home-style experience — a 5-minute drive rather than steps from the lift.

    Yes — the free Mountaineer Shuttle picks up directly at the cabin during ski season. On powder days when the Village lot fills early, it's often faster than driving and searching for parking. Leave the car, ride to the lifts, and skip the whole parking situation.

    About ½ mile from the Village — a 5-minute drive. The cabin is on the Olympic Valley side, which puts you closer to the Village than most highway hotels. On busy ski days that proximity to the lifts makes a real difference.
