My family and I visited Sugar Rush on a Saturday with 12-2pm time slot…read more Parking was plentiful and the kids loved playing on the snowy hill we parked next to, added fun but for free! Check-in was painless, the man simply verified my order confirmation email and handed us wristbands. Off to tubing!!!! Let's keep it real, there are not enough tubes for the amount of people there. Many people were standing around the top of the Magic Carpet waiting for someone to toss their unwanted tube. But I was grateful to the loud attendants walking around, loudly explaining the rules of "Tube Sharing"- pretty much they don't want anyone standing away wasting time on their time slot for a tube, so get in a line and when it's your turn to go down and don't have one, the people behind you are prompted by the leads to share theirs. Not an ideal process as there is no signage and I can see how it can get chaotic and frustrating. We timed each line we were in and only got to go down 4 times, 30 min per line and taking into account the ride up on the magic carpet. All of that within our 2 hour timeframe- 4 times. Our kids had much more fun playing in the general snow play area anyway, but bummer about the organization of it all putting salt in the wound of pricey tickets!

No point in arriving early either cause by the time you're done filling out & signing the form the time for the first session starts. Instead of your time starting when you first get to the tubes. For 2 hours $20 per adult (adult age is 13+) $15 per kid (ages 3 - 12) and you have to lug the tubes yourself up the hill. One worker said not a lot of people go longer than 2 hours, geee I wonder why . A lot of returning customers either lor did not all go, smh.

There was 4 tubing lanes for guest to enjoy, along with rental snowmobiles, and igloos. The staff here are all amazing and very professional.

My kids kept wanting to go to her lane. Overall great plan to check out.

Great for Families & Touristy Fun -- Just Come Early! We…read morevisited Tahoe Snowmobiles in South Lake Tahoe for snow tubing, and had a really fun time! While the business name suggests it's just for snowmobiles, they also offer snow tubing, which is what we came for -- but it wasn't immediately clear online or on signage. It took a bit of guessing to realize we were at the right place since the signage could definitely be improved. That said, once we figured it out, everything was smooth! Good to Know Before You Go: Tubing is $50 per person per hour, and every person on the property (even if not tubing) must purchase a $10 spectator pass for liability reasons. We arrived around 10:30 AM on a Sunday, and the lines were okay -- but by noon, it got VERY busy. We were so glad we came early. Slopes are perfect for kids -- not too steep, with just the right amount of thrill. Kids aged 3-5 must ride with an adult. There are two entry lines (walk-in & reservations). Booking online ahead might help to save some time. What We Loved: The tubing lanes were well-groomed and smooth. There were staff members at the top helping launch you down gently (or with a wild spin, if you're up for it!) and safety staff at the bottom ensuring smooth exits. Kids loved it, and it felt safe and well-managed overall. Staff were young but hard-working and cheerful. There's a QR code at the entrance to fill out the required waiver -- best to start that while you wait in line. Parking Tip: Nearby parking is $20 per hour, but the first hour is free -- perfect if you plan your visit efficiently. Final Thoughts: Yes, it's a bit touristy and a little pricey -- but it's also a blast and creates great memories and photos for families. If you arrive before 10 AM or later around 3 PM, you'll avoid the biggest crowds and have a much smoother experience. We'd definitely recommend it for families looking for classic snow fun in South Lake Tahoe!

I stayed here during TrailCon 2026 and, overall, had a really good experience…read more From the very beginning, the communication was excellent. The booking process was easy, the staff was friendly and responsive, and all of the follow-up emails and confirmations made everything feel well organized. The location was also fantastic and made it easy to get around during the event. There were only a couple of minor downsides. The biggest one was the lack of air conditioning in the main living area. There was a portable A/C unit in the bedroom, which helped while sleeping, but it was fairly loud. During the day, the living room stayed quite warm until the evening cooled things off. I ended up leaving the windows and patio door open most of the time for airflow. I also couldn't quite figure out how to properly lock or secure the patio door when it was closed. It may have just been user error, but some simple instructions would have been helpful. One other note, while not really the property's fault. They recommended a shuttle service from the Reno airport. Booking online was easy enough ($95 from RNO), but after receiving my confirmation email I tried calling, texting, and even reaching out via WhatsApp several times with a couple of questions and never received a response. Thankfully, the shuttle did show up (about 10 minutes late), and everything worked out. Other than those few things, I really enjoyed my stay and would absolutely stay here again. Having a full kitchen was a nice bonus, and next time I'd probably arrange for a grocery delivery instead of eating out for every meal. It would save a fair bit of money, especially if you're staying for a conference or event.

Well worth the visit even if you don't ski…read more $50.00 for ski lifts/Gondola trip up mountains to visit. A little bit more if you're skiing. Several slopes still open but none is novice. End of season and not enough snow anymore. Fantastic staff here. Their guidance on what to observe where and when to show how warm and friendly they all have been really makes this day complete. The 1960's Olympics museum is a must. I had no idea this was here and it's been not only a fun history lesson but neat to be so close to the elements, buildings, photos, stories and land where the first western USA Olympics took place. What a great experience. Gondola patrons lovely. Lift just to left of the slopes much busier and end of day skiers can be a bit nasty. Over all good experience anyway. $0.00 to park and right next to the Olympic village. You're just steps away from the lifts.

Proven Results in Just Two Mornings -- The Video Says It All…read more If you're evaluating private ski instruction at Palisades Tahoe, this is the benchmark. We booked two morning sessions with Pro Powder Guides for our 13-year-old daughter, who had never skied before. Our expectation was simple--safe introduction, basic control, and hopefully a positive experience. What happened instead was a complete transformation. David's coaching was precise, calm, and incredibly effective. The real differentiator was the CALM-TALK™ helmet communication system--live, in-motion coaching that eliminated confusion and accelerated learning in a way we've never seen. And here's the part that matters: The video proves it. By the end of the second morning, she was: Linking clean parallel turns Confidently using her poles Skiing intermediate terrain with control and flow No exaggeration. No marketing spin. You can literally see the progression. As parents, that level of outcome--delivered efficiently, safely, and with total professionalism--is exactly what you hope for, but rarely get. Why this stands apart: Real, visible results in minimal time Technology-enhanced coaching (CALM-TALK™) that actually works Clear, composed instruction tailored to the individual A premium, private experience focused on outcomes--not just time on snow Bottom line: If you want your child to not just try skiing--but truly learn it, confidently and correctly--Pro Powder Guides is in a different league. We didn't just hear progress. We saw it.

He also never fell once. I spent the first 15 years of my ski career in resort ski school and it probably took me 5 years to get to where my boyfriend was able to get in one 3 hour lesson with Dave. And at a fraction of the price! Dave delivered clear communication, excellent demonstration, positive vibe, professional demeanor, and provided a written review with notes on what to continue working on. He even took videos throughout the day so that we could review the progress, and take note on what my boyfriend needed to work on. Book a lesson with Dave. You wont regret it!

No cash or Apple Pay because the owner, who was working the parking booth, told us he's worried about his employees stealing. We arrived mid morning on a sat, paid $20 to park, then told the cashier guy the 2 kids wanna sled (they picked sledding over tubing, charged us $50 for 2 kids to do the sledding. Mid afternoon we go to car to take a water break and on the way back in a 16yo kid asked to see our passes. Showed the kids pass and he then proceeded to tell us we needed to pay another $30 for "spectator passes" say what!? Now, You want me to pay you to stand there and not sled? at the end of the day?
