The area's most complete destination resort is especially popular with families, thanks to its many sports activities -- from golf and tennis to skiing and snowshoeing -- and its concentration of restaurants, shops, recreation facilities, and accommodations (the Village Mall). Lodgings range from hotel rooms to condos to private houses, some with ski-in, ski-out access. You receive free lift tickets and on-site shuttle transportation and have complimentary access to the Swim and Racquet Club's swimming pools, outdoor hot tubs, fitness center, and teen center. True North ($-$$$; reservations essential, open winter only) serves contemporary American cooking prepared with organically grown produce and all-natural meats, well worth the drive. www.northstarattahoe.com. 270 units.
