Thank you so much for making the trip to Lake Tahoe! It's a beautiful location with lots to do and see. Palisades Tahoe (fka Squaw Valley), where our wedding will be taking place, is somewhat isolated. We suggest that all of our guests stay in the Palisades Tahoe / Olympic Valley area for ease of getting around. If you are planning on staying elsewhere around the lake or exploring other areas, it is highly recommended that you rent a car if you didn't drive there to begin with! We also recommend giving yourself plenty of drive time when traveling around the lake - the single lane highway areas can get congested at times.
