Cold Stone Creamery

Eighteen holes about the lake, with a windmill driven by skis, a bear that chomps golf balls and a paddlewheeler to putt past.

An enclosed gondola ride up Heavenly Mountain with an observation deck overlooking the whole lake.

Thin, crispy pies by the fountain, with live music on a lot of nights and a Thai curry pizza for the adventurous.

Kitchenette suites with a separate sleeping area, which is handy with little kids.

An all-suite resort near the Heavenly gondola, with more room than a regular hotel room.

A 1.3-mile walk to a waterfall that makes a good picnic spot.
