A Starbucks is in the same parking lot, and multiple restaurants, including Pegs Glorified Ham n Eggs, Sierra Gold, and Wild Garlic Pizza & Pub, are within 0.5 km. A grocery store (Sprouts) and gas stations are adjacent. The area is safe and well-lit. For skiing trips to North Tahoe, this is a convenient base.
