About Heavenly

If you haven’t been to South Lake Tahoe recently, you’re in for a surprise. Gone are the old motels and t-shirt shops, replaced by a vibrant village, up-scale lodging and exquisite restaurants. Heavenly has turned this quirky ski town into a double-black-diamond destination.

Over $250 million were poured into mountain and village improvements – a gondola, new resort hotels, new lifts, advanced snowmaking and grooming, extensive lodge renovations, a world-class ski school facility, and a family adventure center that lets non-skiers join the high-altitude fun!

And Heavenly's not done yet. The resort is currently in the approval phase for a 10 year Master Plan that will bring a number of new improvements, beginning with a new lift on the Nevada side and an on-mountain, day-use lodge. The improvements continue in year three of Heavenly’s ten-year master plan that promises a steady stream of new lifts, on-mountain restaurants, lodging and base villages that will greatly improve the overall experience.

Heavenly Mountain Resort is a world-class destination offering guests a one-of-a-kind combination of scenic beauty and exhilarating on-snow experience.

Heavenly is a subsidiary of Vail Resorts, Inc., the leading mountain resort operator in the United States.  In addition to Heavenly, Vail Resorts, Inc. owns and operates the Colorado mountain resorts of Vail, Beaver Creek, Breckenridge and Keystone, and the Grand Teton Lodge Company in Jackson Hole, Wyoming.
