Local Lifestyle

Despite the sheer volume of activities available in Zephyr Cove, the community remains quiet and peaceful, a small bit of respite from the chaos of nearby Carson City or Sacramento. As with most of the towns surrounding Lake Tahoe, luxury is elemental to the local atmosphere, so it’s no surprise that residents have easy access to top-notch culinary options, fantastic spas, and more.


Dining, Entertainment & Shopping

Zephyr Cove is home to some of the best restaurants in the area, whether you’re looking for a casual mood or want an upscale evening out. For the former, hit Casey’s, a casual joint with burgers, pizza, and more on the menu. The Monster burrito can appease any appetite, and the French Dip sandwich is packed full of flavor. The Zephyr Cove Restaurant in Zephyr Cove Resort is a great, casual option as well, particularly for breakfast when you can find pancakes, french toast, and eggs in multiple forms.

If you want to be transported to Italy for dinner, visit Capisce, a family-owned restaurant featuring cuisine from North Italy, like chicken piccata or steamed vongole. Toast, on the other hand, is perfect for date night or to impress friends. While the menu has primarily Japanese influences, you’ll see options based on international recipes, from cioppino to sesame-crusted ahi tuna.


Things to Do

Zephyr Cove Resort is a source of much entertainment for local residents, as well as tourists to the area. Cruises, watersports, and snowmobiling are all on the agenda, as well as other outdoor activities. The resort also features a mile-long beach with a volleyball court, cocktail service, and crystal clear water to swim in. Don’t miss a ride on the M.S. Dixie, a paddlewheel boat that offers daytime and sunset cruises.  Another place to enjoy the beach is at Round Hill Pines Resort. Take a ride around the lake on the Serenity Yacht, a marina, and Caribbean-inspired food and drinks.

Go for a horseback ride at Zephyr Cove Stables. The trail rides explore the mountains and woods around Lake Tahoe, offering scenic views. Watch the sunset over the vista during the dinner ride, then finish up with a delicious picnic afterward.
