Well, for the first time in many years we’ve had some really good snow.  The Americana is radiant!  Check out this photo of us in our winter splendor.

Paul Lyster and the whole maintenance crew did a superb job during our big snow storm the week before last.  They were doing snow removal, day and night, and day and night to keep our parking and rooms accessible, and to make sure we all were safe.  

Getting to work was an interesting challenge and some of us stayed here to make sure we’d be able to open the Front Desk on time.  We never lost power, which meant we all stayed nice and warm while the flakes kept coming down.  Boy, it was something else!  We’re hoping you and your families weathered the storms in your area safely.

Did you know that you no longer have to submit your reservation in writing?  You can call us at 1.800.822.5920, make a reservation and get a confirmation number right over the phone.

We’re starting the New Year with a new website.  This site is set up to accept comments from owners, so it’s called a Blog.  I’m presenting lots of information for you to use and enjoy – and am hoping to have your input.  

If you’d like to share your hints on how to travel, comments about trades you’ve really enjoyed, or even things like what your family loves about Tahoe, we’d like to here from you!  You can send us comments using the spaces provided throughout the site. 

We’ll be moving slowly with the site at first until we’ve got everything dialed in.  Check back often for updated information on your resort and friends in Tahoe.  We hope you enjoy visiting us on the web.

On behalf of all of us at the Americana,

Happy New Year!
