Did Lindsay Vonn and her fellow Olympic skiers pique your interest to get out for some winter fun? Then come on up to Tahoe! Stanford Sierra Conference Center is closed for the winter, but our sister property, the Stanford Alpine Chalet in Tahoe City, is hopping busy with skiers and snowboarders. The Chalet has 14 comfortable rooms and is the closest you can sleep (in a bed) to Alpine Meadows Ski Resort.

Wake up at the Chalet to chef Ron’s delicious, hot, cooked-to-order breakfast to fuel your mountain adventure. Make sure those skis are waxed and edges sharpened, then take the 5-minute shuttle ride to fresh air, sunshine and fun on Alpine’s trails. Warm up on the smoothly groomed slopes, then head for the NASTAR course, and run those gates like Lindsay! (hopefully without the spills) When your legs have turned to rubber, head back to the Chalet for a soak in the hot tub and relive your best turns with your front row view of the mountain.

Midweek is the best time for a ski getaway to the Chalet with no crowds and plenty of deals. Call Geoff or Dusty at 530-583-1550 or email chalet@stanford.edu and ask about the chalet’s excellent midweek package including Alpine Meadows lift tickets. Think snow, don’t forget the sunscreen, and visualize those turns like gold medal winner Lindsay Vonn!
