    ExperienceSledding and Tubing

    Tubing and sledding are for those who simply wish to play in the snow without the hassle of having to display one’s skills. It is you vs gravity. Most excellent tube and sled areas have great places to tailgate, picnic, and build snow structures. Let the memories commence!

    Sledding

    Within 5 minutes of the Hotel
    Just around the corner from the hotel is the Hilltop area, and is where the very first ski lift was built in the Truckee area. This hilltop is just above the Cottonwood restaurant and is privately owned, but the owner is a friend of The Cedar House Sport Hotel; therefore, our guests are welcome to go sledding there. To get there, go left out of our driveway, make a left onto Old Brockway Rd and follow the road straight up until you have trees to the left and right of you. Park your car somewhere on the right side and make your way through the trees onto the open slope like area. We have a few saucers that our guests can borrow.

    20 minutes from hotel

    Soda Springs is a small resort off of Highway 80 close to Sugar Bowl Resort that offers excellent beginner ski and snowboard terrain, and areas to simply play in the snow. They have a snow-play area designed for children ages 8 and under, with snow carousels and tubing. This is a great place for children to play in the snow and learn how to ski and snowboard. There are instructors on-site, but they encourage parents to be there for your children’s first turns. They also have “mini-snowmobiles” for children 6 to 12 yrs old to drive on a circular track; helmets are provided.
