Zephyr Cove Resort
Beneath towering pines at the lake's edge stand 28 cozy, modern, vacation cabins with peaked knotty-pine ceilings, and although they're not fancy, they come in various sizes, some perfect for families. There are also four sparely furnished rooms in the large lodge building that holds the resort's restaurant. Across U.S. 50, a sprawling year-round campground is geared toward RVers, but with walk-in tent sites, too. The resort, old-school in its ambience and ambitions, has horseback riding, snowmobiling facilities, and a marina with boat, WaveRunner, kayak, and other water-sports rentals, all of which contribute to the summer-camp atmosphere. Pets are allowed for a fee.
