Heavenly straddles the California–Nevada border above South Lake Tahoe, and its runs serve up the most jaw-dropping lake views of any resort on the mountain. A gondola lifts you straight out of the village at Stateline up into the snow.
With 3,500 feet of vertical — the most in Tahoe — and a huge spread of intermediate cruisers and wide groomers, Heavenly is built for big days and big views. The base scene, steps from South Lake's restaurants and nightlife, is the liveliest at the lake.
