  We usually can keep all our lifts running on windy days when other resorts shut down, due to our elevation and orientation of the lifts. The base lodge can get crowded on a stormy day but if it’s sunny there’s plenty of space on the deck or the Snowflake Lodge. That storm actually brought in 2 feet of snow, so visit us again soon! - Jackie

  We also offer a free shuttle from the Hyatt that leaves every 30 minutes making it very convenient for those staying there. Thanks for your review and hope to see you next time you’re in Tahoe! -Jackie

  Yes, it's small by other Tahoe resort standards, but it's a great place for a "warm-up" day. The views are killer! At the top of the Lakeview Chairlift is the Snowflake Lodge. Quick eats and drinks, but go out on the deck! The view of the lake is unsurpassed. There are a few great blue runs and the grooming is perfect. Crystal Ridge run at the top of the Crystal Express is a long run with PLENTY of peel-off black and blue runs to vary the day. On a down note, Most of Diamond Peak faces southeast, so it's usually one of the last ski resorts to open and first to close. This year (2015) all of Tahoe is in DESPERATE need of snow and hardly anyone has all runs open. For locals, the ticket prices are unbeatable--$25 per day non-holiday. There's lots of varying terrain so there's something for everyone.

  Well said! Diamond Peak is not only affordable and friendly, but really convenient for people staying at the Hyatt. You can purchase everything at the Hyatt Sports Shop and hop on the Diamond Peak shuttle. We have great beginner areas, but also intermediate and advanced terrain. Those ski team kids you saw could be Olympians some day! We hold ski team training and races on our mountain for youth and college races. Thanks for a wonderful review, come again soon! - Jackie

  saw an add in a local "what to do in Tahoe" flyer for a locals lunch, m-f from 11:00 to 1:00 for $25, including a $10 food voucher.checked on their web-site & did not see it there.was staying in Incline Village for my time-share week, so nice & close, decided to check it out, sure enough the ticket booth sold me a limited time 2 hour ski pass for $25.pretty bleak snow cover, they only had 3 or 4 runs open, but coverage was good, did not tear up my boards.I got about 15 runs in during the 2 hours.great deal if you only want a few hours of skiing.NOTE: you don't have to be a local to get this deal.

  We came with two children who had never skied before, so we signed them up for lessons and rented their gear. Rental was quick and easy; they were fitted for skis, poles, and boots.The instructor was very helpful, he taught them a lot and they seemed to like him. All of the staff there is very friendly and attentive. When they were finished with their morning lesson, we had lunch in the ski lodge. After that, we went on to ride some green slopes. Diamond peak only has two green slopes. One is the schoolyard where lessons are taught, and there is one other one. We wished they had more slopes, but the greens they did have were groomed and had a lake view. We finished the day satisfied - Diamond Peak is a great place to go for lessons and a fun ski trip.

  Thanks for sharing these great tips! It does sometimes get busy during the holidays so my tip would be to come on a regular weekend or weekday if you can. Once you are ready for the intermediate runs there are also less people and hardly ever a line. Hope to see you back! -Jackie

  We do offer a few preferred parking spots during holiday periods but the rest of the parking is free. There is also a tram that picks you up at your car if you have to park further away. Thanks for taking the time to review and we’ll see you next time! -Jackie
