Lake Tahoe, NV: Deep Waters and Dense Pines

Departure city: New York
Destination: Lake Tahoe, NV

Lake Tahoe, NV: Deep Waters and Dense Pines
Snow or no snow, the Tahoe area is an enchanted landscape of mountain peaks, abundant wildlife, and perky pines encircling a deep and lofty lake cherished for its adventures and aesthetics.

Dress code: Snowy sidewalks and pinecone-strewn hiking trails make high heels a fashion faux pas. The vibe in Tahoe is really, really casual and you have to look hard to find even a “mountain formal” venue that won’t accept your jeans-clad self. In summer, flip flops and khakis hold sway. In winter, boots and stocking caps are ubiquitous.

Editor’s favorite watering holes: Don’t let the mounted animal trophies on the walls deter you–The Tourist Club in Truckee was once a post office and is now a delightful dive bar promising “free beer tomorrow.” For a taste of the Old World, The Auld Dubliner at Squaw features live accordion music and Irish food.

Where the locals go: Your best chance to overhear pro skiers swapping schuss tales over pizza and beer is at Le Chamoix, which is located in the old Olympic area. If burgers are more your thing, then the patio at the Bridgetender is a biker’s and hiker’s haven along the Truckee River. And, if you’re into fish, Mama Sake and Hiro Sushi are super spots for sushi.

Where to blow a paycheck: Like little cities unto themselves, the major mountain resorts have more than enough to make the whole family happy. From spas, ski trails, skating rinks, and s’mores kiosks to kids’ camps, swimming pools, gondolas, and restaurants galore, everything you need is right at hand, including comfortable lodging and jaw-dropping lake and Sierra Nevada vistas.

Did we mention it’s free?: Emerald Bay in South Lake is resplendent with relatively easy hiking trails that lead past stands of aspen (come in fall, when they’re golden), granite rocks, and flowing waterfalls. In the summer, you can join a tour to the historic Scandinavian Vikingsholm and see the charming little tea house on Fannette Island.

Chill-out spot: The Tahoe Rim Trail passes through Page Meadows, where dense trees give way to a series of alpine meadows chained together. The relative flatness of the meadows makes it a springtime mecca for moms and baby carriages. In summer, wildflowers bloom in all colors. At any time of year, watch the tree trunks for the old carvings of Basque shepherds.

Off the beaten path: The Riverside Studios along the Truckee is a collective of talented local artists who occasionally hold shows and sales. Call ahead to make sure they’re open, then peruse the innovative ceramics, sculptures, paintings, and more. After, take a stroll through the historic district.

Good to know: During ski season, your chance of hitting a snowstorm beats all the casino odds. If you plan on doing any winter driving, make sure you’ve got either a four-wheel-drive vehicle, or that you know how to put chains on your tires.

Price of tourpackage starts from $483 and includes flights, hotel, taxes and fees

Hotel Description:

The Tahoe Inn offers an outdoor seasonal pool, a spa tub, and an arcade and game room. Wireless Internet access is complimentary throughout the hotel. Tour assistance and concierge services are available; the hotel has a business center on site. Meeting space is available for large and small groups. Coffee and newspapers are complimentary in the lobby. The hotel offers ski storage and fitness equipment. Guestrooms at the Tahoe Inn have balconies or patios. The televisions have premium cable channels; wireless Internet access is complimentary. The guestrooms are furnished with microwaves and coffeemakers, as well as clock radios and desks. Wake-up calls are available.

Raleigh-Durham, NC: Totally Triangular Triple Play

 

Nightlife Photo by IgoUgo.com

Photo by IgoUgo.com  Skyline at Night Photo by IgoUgo.com

Departure: New York City, USA
Destination: Raleigh-Durham, NC (flights into Raleigh/Durham)

Raleigh-Durham, NC: Totally Triangular Triple Play
Along with Chapel Hill, the cities of Raleigh and Durham comprise The Triangle, and you’d be a square not to avail yourself of the region’s Southern cooking, sports teams, and watering holes.

The real deal: For an unlawful amount of lip-smacking Southern calories, Crook’s Corner has a lock-down on the best shrimp and grits, country ham, buttermilk biscuits, hush puppies, and frozen mint juleps–need we say more? Later, be sure to cue up at the Q Shack for epic amounts of barbecue, such as chili-rubbed beef brisket and hickory-smoked pork butt with slaw.

Give it the old college try: Duck into Duke and discover that ivy isn’t only for the Northeast. Or, walk the U.N.C. Chapel Hill Campus to see the old well, bell tower, and eponymous chapel. Follow it up with a visit to Sutton’s Drug Store for the perfect hit-the-books recipe: old-fashioned milkshakes and diner food.

Where to blow a paycheck: Like Kasparov and Deep Blue, Bugs and Elmer, Ishmael and Moby Dick, the U.N.C. Tar Heels and Duke Blue Devils represent one of the most storied rivalries in sportsdom. If you’ve got about $200 to score tickets to one of these heated games, you’re in for a slam-dunk night of passion, cheerleading antics, and copious face/body paint.

Editor’s favorite watering hole: Located above the famous, 40-year-old Angus Barn, the Wild Turkey Lounge welcomes you with wing-back chairs, fireplaces, and a collection of turkey-shaped whiskey decanters (as every good watering hole should). Go with the whisky flow and ask for a stiff pour of Wild Turkey to enjoy with the homemade cheese, crackers, and pickles.

History lesson: Although cigarettes are no longer manufactured here, Durham’s tobacco district is no smoke screen–it’s filled with buildings historic to the trade. The American Tobacco Factory was listed on the National Register of Historic Places, and dates back to 1874, and the smokestack and water tower now host summer concerts.

Where the locals go: Don’t worry–it’s all legal fun at White Collar Crime, set in the warehouse district. Summer nights make the patio seats popular, but there’s always indoor couches and bar stools upon which you can plant yourself to drink your favorite brew. If you’re there on the weekend, give a shout out to DJ Mooney.

Chill-out spots: After a night out on the town, spend the next day in the Great Outdoors. Go picnicking, hiking, fishing, or horseback riding among the pine trees and streams of Umstead Park. Or, take your trip afloat during a rafting, canoeing, or kayaking sojourn along the scenic Eno River, which drops 250-feet over its 40-mile course.
