Truckee California


I recently stayed at a friends cabin up in Truckee for a couple weekends in March. It is one of the most beautiful places ive been to. It was like a winter wonderland, something you would see on a cheesy post card. Truckee has a lot to offer for vacationers. Its very close to several ski resorts like Boreal and Donner Ski Ranch. Its also about 20 minutes from Nevada and 30 minutes from Reno. I really enjoy small towns and I could tell it was a really small town because they only had one Starbucks and most of the shops and eateries were locally owned. If you are looking for a hidden weekend get away in California, I would highly recommend Truckee.

Recommendations-
Wild Cherries. Its a little cafe that serves bomb ass coffee and food. Try the chocolate cake and the cheese cake. Order a soy hot chocolate, its a yummy way to warm up and fight the cold.

Donner Ski Ranch. Smaller ski resort, not too crowded. Bar and restaurant as well.
