The snow is flying across the Sierra Nevada Mountain range and the highly anticipated Ritz-Carlton Highlands, Lake Tahoe opened its doors this week following a ribbon-cutting ceremony. Northstar-at-Tahoe received over 24 inches of snowfall at the summit in just 24 hours, setting the stage with near-perfect winter conditions for the launch.
The Ritz-Carlton Highlands, Lake Tahoe is the first new-build resort development in the Lake Tahoe area in decades. Anticipated to be the premier Northern California contemporary mountain retreat, the $300 million project features ski-in, ski-out access with mountain concierge services.
Manzanita, the resort’s signature restaurant has been created by San Francisco’s James Beard Award Winning chef Traci Des Jardins. There is also the Highlands Spa – a 17,000 square foot spa and fitness centre with treatments and therapies themed around water and the woods.
It is long overdue, Tahoe is a great place and was in desperate need of a chic hotel!
Thanks,
Jaime
