Resort at Squaw Creek golf set to open!

Spring is here and summer is just around the corner, which means the snow is melting and Lake Tahoe golf courses are getting ready to open. The Resort at Squaw Creek, A Destination Hotel, in North Lake Tahoe is scheduled to open its fairways May 26 and welcomes golfers with a variety of golf packages and season pass options.

The Unlimited Golf package is all that it sounds. It includes one night’s accommodations, unlimited rounds of golf (per person), one golf cart (stocked with six beers), and complimentary valet parking. Rates start at $269 based on double occupancy.

Golfers that plan to play numerous times throughout the summer can opt for the Golf Pass, which is $619 for unlimited play.

The course at the Resort at Squaw Creek is an 18-hole championship course designed by Robert Trent Jones Jr. The magnificent, links-style course is nestled in the meadow of Olympic Valley, surrounded by the majestic peaks of the Sierra Nevada. The resort is committed to promoting a high-quality, environmentally conscious golf course, using the most ecologically sound maintenance practices to ensure a safe haven for both people and wildlife. It is a member of the Audubon International Cooperative Sanctuary.

Resort at Squaw Creek recently completed a $7 million guest room renovation to further enhance the experience for travelers visiting the Lake Tahoe region. As part of the renovation, guest rooms have been refinished with soothing neutral textures and colors such as warm wood tones, rich leather, mixed metal and natural stone. Mindful of the property’s stunning views, the design includes new elements of light drapery and pops of color to complement and maximize Resort at Squaw Creek’s surroundings. The new modern meets mountain design aims to give guests a sense of place as it draws inspiration from natural surroundings found in the Olympic Valley and surrounding Sierra Mountain range.

With its abundance of amenities and located 10 minutes from the shores of Lake Tahoe, Resort at Squaw Creek is a AAA Four Diamond property offering guests year-round recreational opportunities that include an 18-hole Robert Trent Jones Jr. championship golf course, guided fly-fishing tours, and access to miles of hiking and biking trails, as well as five restaurants highlighting regionally sourced ingredients, the award-winning Spa at Squaw Creek, three outdoor heated swimming pools, and a shopping promenade. In winter, guests enjoy ski-in/ski-out access to Squaw Valley USA, a private ice rink, and a Nordic center. The 405-room resort has been recognized as a “Top 50 Ski Hotel” in North America and “Top 150 Resorts: Mainland” by Condé Nast Traveler.
