Lakeside Beach

A fire pit on the deck with the s'mores makings set out, and family rooms with loft bunks over the queen beds.

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

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

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

Ice cream folded together with your kid's pick of mix-ins on a frozen stone slab, right in front of them.

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