Olympic Valley + Palisades Tahoe + Truckee + Reno + Lake Tahoe basin have collectively explored hosting the 2030 Winter Olympics (with a parallel bid eventually awarded elsewhere). Olympic Valley hosted the 1960 Games and retains substantial Olympic infrastructure — the Olympic Museum, Aerial Tram (modeled on the Olympic-era cable car), Olympic Plaza. Should a future Olympic bid succeed, the corridor would see substantial infrastructure investment, but our service today is anchored on the existing premium ski + golf market.
Three distinct Tahoe luxury sub-markets. Resort at Squaw Creek (405 rooms, Olympic Valley) is family-friendly + corporate-offsite focused with direct Palisades Tahoe access.

Many guests stay at two or three across multi-day Tahoe trips — we shuttle between (Ritz↔Squaw Creek 25 min, Squaw Creek↔Edgewood 60 min South Shore loop).
