Talk about a place with something for everyone! Do you like to golf? sail? ski? gamble? hike? Truckee, California, is incredibly situated with easy access to all these activities and more. Plus, it's got gorgeous views. Nestled in the Sierra Nevadas just north of Lake Tahoe, Truckee is close to just about whatever you'd like to do. Where to start? By checking out the Truckee vacation rentals online. Here you'll find just the right Truckee lodging to utilize as your home base for your fun-filled getaway.
If you come here during the ski season, you'll find yourself in the midst of five fabulous mountain ski resorts, including Squaw Valley and Alpine Meadows. With 300 - 500 inches of snowfall at the alpine ski elevations, your Truckee lodging gives you access to some world-class skiing. There are trails for snowboarding, snowshoeing, and cross-country skiing as well. Then at the end of the day, you'll be ready to return to one of our Truckee vacation rentals for some well-appreciated hot chocolate.
Other times of year in Truckee offer many forms of outdoor recreation as well. Within the surrounding mountains, hiking in Lakeview Canyon south of nearby Lake Donner or in Donner Memorial State Park is quite popular. You might want to try some rock-climbing as well. Mountain biking in the Sierras is a favorite option, too. If you want to enjoy the mountain vistas with a little less work on your part, take a horseback ride from one of many area stables.
You can also head from your Truckee vacation home to the clear waters of nearby Lake Donner for many
water sports. There you can enjoy swimming, sailing, fishing or diving in this jewel of a mountain lake. Since the area provides 300 days of sunshine a year, you'll have plenty of opportunity to spend your days outside, and then retire to the comfort and privacy of one of the Truckee hotels or other Truckee lodging.
Maybe you'll choose one of the vacation rentals based upon its accessibility to premier golfing. There are a number of courses to choose from nearby, including the Donner Lake and Tahoe Donner golf courses.
Perhaps while you're in this beautiful area of California, you'll want to make a day trip from your Truckee hotel to the Napa-Sonoma region, just 30 minutes away. There are many ways to explore the local wineries, several hundred of which are located here among rolling hills. You may opt for a private wine tour at many local vineyards, or a group tour at a larger winery. Right in the town center, you can sample wines from a variety of local producers at Wineries of Napa Valley.
There is plenty of night-life in the area, too! You can leave your Truckee lodging to check out any of the six 24-hour casinos in South Lake Tahoe or head 24 miles to Reno for even more casino choices for lights, excitement, and gambling fun. If your idea of fun is a little less frenetic, you can enjoy the local music festivals, windsurfing races or steamboat races. However you fill your days, you will appreciate the comfort of a lodging you have chosen for your stay.
With so many activities to pick from, you'll want to make part of your planning easy. That's why you should look for homes online. It is easy, fast and all you have to worry about is how to get there.
