Happy Tuesday! It’s been a while since I last did an instagram roundup (if you don’t follow me on instagram, you can here) so today I’m sharing a bunch of insta pictures from my recent trip to Lake Tahoe. I had a ton of emails/comments asking where we stayed, so I’m giving you all the resort details at the end of this post!
This was the view out of our room on Christmas morning… we stayed in a room with a “forest view” instead of “valley view.”
Every room in the resort also has a fireplace! The temperature in Tahoe was below freezing most of the time, so we took advantage of the fireplace a lot. It was so nice to wake up and sit by the fire with a cup of coffee!
This was the view from Crystal Bay. We went here our first day before the blizzard hit!
One of our favorite things to do in Lake Tahoe is visit Olympic Village. There are tons of restaurants and shops, and you can take a tram to the top of the mountain, which is a really cool experience. It was so cold that we were constantly taking breaks for hot drinks!
This was the morning it started snowing! I love wearing pastel colors in the snow.

Snowball fight! 🙂
I wore this look on Christmas, I LOVE white on white outfits in the snow. Behind me you can see a little bit of the resort.

There’s a skating rink on the resort too…. we went one morning. I used to take skating lessons for years so I thought I would be okay, but I still ended up wiping out one time haha.
Another fun thing to do is drive into Tahoe City. You’ll find amazing coffee shops, restaurants, a CVS and grocery store. Plus it’s right on the lake and you can walk right down to the water.

We found this little bridge one day just by driving around. Everywhere you looked, the views were so beautiful!
Like I said, we really took advantage of this fireplace! It made the room so warm and cozy.
I would definitely recommend renting a car (with four-wheel drive!) in Lake Tahoe. We used ours almost every day to drive to Olympic Village, Tahoe City or just exploring.
Being in Tahoe for Christmas was magical. Our resort had a gorgeous Christmas tree up in the lobby and had hung lights on all the trees outside.

Okay now for the resort info! We stayed at Squaw Creek Resort in Squaw Valley. You may remember that my family actually came here last January and we loved it so much that we wanted to go back for Christmas (plus California was an easy destination for my brother to fly to). If you ski or snowboard, you will definitely love Squaw Creek, there’s a slope right on the property. My family doesn’t ski but there was still plenty to do while we were there… we went sledding, tubing, ice skating, visited Olympic Village, Tahoe City and drove all around the lake exploring. We ate almost all of our meals at the resort… my family loves Sandy’s Pub – a little restaurant that serves burgers, salads, sandwiches, etc. I’ve heard that it’s also a lot of fun in the summer… there are several pools and a lot of lake activities you can do in the summer.
If you have a specific question, let me know in the comments! 🙂

It looks beautiful! May I ask which camera do you use?
Hope you had a wonderful holiday there!! My question is: what size are you wearing in the Let it snow jumper? And could you possibly include sizing infos a bit more in future posts on blog and Insta? 🙏🏻💖
Your photos are so stunning. I grew up in Reno, Nevada so Lake Tahoe was a place we visited often. This post makes me want to spend next Christmas there! <3

I love your Sorel boots! I own a different pair of Sorel boots and they are so great to wear in the snow!

Both links to the fuzzy pink cardigan went erroneously to a faux fur coat at Nordstrom. Can you please post the correct link; it's such a pretty cardigan and looks so soft! Thank you!
Hey Kristie,
I'm so sorry about that!! I just fixed the links, but here is the right one: http://rstyle.me/n/cbgh6ernq6

I loved your post. I grew up in Reno/Tahoe and you did a fabulous job showing people what a hidden gem it is. I loved all the places you showed. Next time your there, try these places; Garwood's in North Lake Tahoe, Lone Eagle Grille in Incline Village at Hyatt, The Beacon in Tahoe Keys, 19 Kitchen Bar at Harvey (they serve cotton candy) and Northstar resort Village. The Ritz Carlton is there and they do Marshology (smores)at 4:30-5:30 by their firepit. It complementary to their guests. It is the best!! There are just so many wonderful place to go. Your pictures were so beautiful of Tahoe!!
Thanks,
Meg
Thanks for the comment!! I wish we had done more exploring!! (And eaten at different restaurants beside the resort's) So jealous that you grew up in Reno/Tahoe… it's one of my favorite places in the world!! 🙂
I wish I looked as cute as you during the winter! My pajamas consist of my husbands baggy shirts and sweats and my outdoor outfits are a winter coat and boots! Thanks for sharing all the outfit inspo!
Oh my goodnesss, Your photos have left me breathless!!! Such beauty…you and the scenery. Guess I 'REALLY' need to step up my photography!!! Awesome, awesome job!!!

I am going to Lake Tahoe next week, and this was so helpful! Thank you.
Trying to find out wear you purchased the white fuzzy sweater in the picture in the car and the red velvet bough in hair?absolutly love that fuzzy sweater l have several angora’s but l really like that sweater? Have looked at all Christmas blogs and outfits and can’t seem to find that particular white,white fuzzy sweater. Also went through all 129 sweaters that Nordstrom’s can’t find it 😔And those are the best outfits that lve seen for Christmas, and winter of all of Pinterest!!
Hello! How did you feel the Sorel boots? I’m from another country and I can’t enter the boots link, thanks
