Re: A Snowy Vacation Home.. Where Should it Be?
N Lake Tahoe is great - hate to say it, because my fondest wish is that people would stop moving here and [censored] it up. I live in Reno due to my job - if I was younger and not locked in to it, I'd be living at the North Shore.
Reno is about 45 minutes away, but the airport is nothing like DFW or Denver - you can drive up, park, and be at your gate in 30 - 45 minutes unless it's a busy weekend. Flying in, I'm in my car and driving within 20-30 minutes of the plane hitting the ground.
Drawbacks - You can fly to Chicago, Denver, LA and Dallas nonstop, but that's about it (Bout 30 flights a day to Vegas, tho)
- restaurant scene is improving, but not up to big metro standards.
- skiing, per my wife, is not quite as good as the Rockies (I help put skiiers back together, so I don't ski) - but it's still pretty good.
Feel free to PM me - I've been living here for 15 yrs.....
