Heavenly Ski Holiday Guide
Après Ski in Heavenly
The resort of Heavenly possesses a sort of split personality!-a seemingly inevitable consequence of being of being shared between two wildly different states, majestic California and fun-loving Nevada! The result is an amazing variation in après ski activities that vacillates from a quiet night in with a mug of hot chocolate to partying until dawn playing Vegas-style slot machines and watching showgirls! Moreover, there is everything in between, too…
You will come across this juxtaposition everywhere, heady narcissism alongside tranquil calm. For example, the peaceful location of the Beacon Bar and Grille provides the perfect antithesis to the excesses across the Stateline. Seek out this delightful venue at Camp Richardson, just past the marina, and sample some delicious seafood and California cuisine.
