We suggest all guests stay at Northstar.
There are two main rental companies, and we have set up a number/code with both of them.

 
 

Northstar Resort

We have negotiated rates for all sizes from studios through 4-bedroom homes.

Most options are on the website below, but a few you’ll have book by calling and mentioning the code.  For example, the lofts or 4-bedroom options are only by phone.

The village room and loft are in Timber Creek Lodge, in the village.  The condos are in Aspen Grove and Ski Trails, each a convenient 5-10 minute walk from the village, with larger living space than Timber Creek.

Book by August 18 to make sure you get the good rate.

We have a specific reservations number, to keep track of all guests.  If you’d rather book online, mention in the comments you’re there for the Jones/Warren wedding.

Other Possibilities

Ritz carlton

The hotel is beautiful, and is served by the Highlands gondola from the village. It's a bit isolated, though. Their gondola is operating that weekend, but the hours are reduced and might not be running when needed. The Tahoe Zephyr Express chairlift (or gondola) to the Zephyr Lodge is about a 10 minute walk downhill from the hotel along a dirt and coarse gravel path next to a green ski trail. But, that path is not well lit at night.

Vacation rentals

There are tons of great options available, but will require a little more effort to get to and from the festivities.

Getting There

The closest major airport is Reno-Tahoe International Airport (RNO). JetBlue runs direct to JFK.
From the airport, there are numerous options to get to Northstar, about 50 minutes away:

  • Car rental -- this is the easiest option, also the cheapest and most flexible.  Check Hotwire, AutoSlash, or similar.
  • Uber / Lyft
  • North Lake Tahoe Express airport shuttle, green route.
    • Airport pickup at 3:15 PM & 11:45 PM, hotel pickup at 6:10 AM & 9:25 AM.
  • Taxi

Driving time from Sacramento Airport (SMF) is about 2-3 hours with traffic.

It's also possible to fly into San Francisco (SFO) or Oakland (OAK), rent a car, and drive 3-6 hours with traffic.  There will be plenty of people driving from the Bay Area, and likely carpool opportunities.

Family Care

We are asking that our friends attend the wedding ceremony and reception adults-only.  But, we know many of you may travel with young kids.  Bring the whole family to the beach day and the brunch.

Fun Activities in Lake Tahoe

Lake Tahoe is a beautiful area, all year round.  In September, it should be the end of the summer season and quite lovely.
