Our Top Spots for Dining
Wolfdale's. Wolfdale’s blends the flavors of the West and the Far East
to create “Cuisine Unique”. The fabulous food combinations and lakeside
atmosphere make this restaurant our absolute favorite in the entire Tahoe basin.
Tell Jan the head waiter and sommelier you are renting with us and ask her to help you pick the wine
for your meal. Located in downtown Tahoe City, lakeside across the street from the Pepper Tree Inn. (530) 583-5700
Tahoe House. Located less than a mile from the house on highway 89,
Tahoe house makes great lattes and cappuccinos, with
homemade breads and pastries to match. They also have a great spread of
gourmet-take away for a quick and easy après-ski or après-lake meal. Sit by the fire in the
winter and outside on the patio in the summer. (530) 583-1377
Firesign Café. Located near Sunnyside, at the bottom of the hill from the
house. Drive down in two minutes, or walk down for some brisk exercise in the
summer. Firesign is the place to go for cooked breakfasts and lunches that are
healthy. Try their pecan waffles. The restaurant is a favorite with the locals so you may
have to wait if you don't get there early. (530) 583-0871
