Food Scene

Rosie's Café is one of my personal favorites. This place is where the locals hang out! If you catch them on the right night, you can experience the most amazing fried chicken. Ps. It is Friday night during the winter. Sit at the bar to hear all of the local gossip!

Crystal Bay Casino is great to catch a live band, drink cocktails and play a couple hands of Black Jack. You can also catch a comedy show for a good laugh.

Beyond the incredible southern style comfort food, the second floor of Moe’s is home to a 200+ capacity music venue and conference space, complete with a second bar. On July 5, Moe’s hosted two members of Greensky Bluegrass, a top nationally touring band, for a fun evening of acoustic bluegrass music. And when TCDA’s Concerts at Commons Beach was rained out on July 20, Lebo and Friends moved their funky jams inside this incredible indoor venue, which also has panoramic views of Lake Tahoe. If you haven’t seen a concert at Moe’s yet, don’t worry because much more music is in store all summer and beyond. To stay updated of all events, like Moe’s-Tahoe City on Facebook.

Paige Meadows Start in the large public parking area just south of the Truckee River and follow the Truckee River Bike Path over a bridge and along the north side of the river. This part is easy, beautiful, and suitable for all abilities. It's crowded, so don't go too fast or get too distracted by the bikinis... I mean rafters. When you come to the River Run restaurant and Alpine Meadows, turn left and head towards the ski area. Turn left on Snow Crest Road and climb uphill a while. Before descending, look for a dirt road going off to the left. This is 16N48, which you follow steeply uphill for a while. This first part is rocky, loose, and not very nice, but it's over quickly.

Gatekeepers Museum 130 West Lake Boulevard, Tahoe City, California The Gatekeeper’s Museum is a reconstruction of the original Gatekeeper’s Cabin, on the same site where the original stood until it was destroyed by arson fire in the early 1980s. The original Gatekeeper’s cabin was built by Robert Montgomery Watson—also the builder of the Watson Cabin—to be the home of the Watermaster who controlled the flow of water out of Lake Tahoe. We still have a Watermaster, but s/he no longer lives in this cabin. Instead, the cabin showcases Tahoe history, from the Washoe people through the logging and mining eras and the establishment of the tourism industry at Lake Tahoe. Exhibits include Native A
