You have just arrived to your luxury vacation rental in South Lake Tahoe for the Christmas holiday. After traveling for 6 excruciating hours with your family, all you want to do is sit down and relax in front of the fireplace. But – you are itching to get your family on the slopes of Heavenly first thing in the morning. It is a ski vacation, after all.
Being the savvy ski-vacationer you are, you decide to get all needed ski rental equipment that night. You can beat the throngs of families who will get their ski rental equipment in the morning. You pat yourself on the back for such a novel idea.
After an hour of unpacking and letting your kids explore your South Lake Tahoe vacation rental, you wrangle the family back into the rental car. Upon entering the Heavenly Village, you decide on one of the many equipment rental shops that are still open.
Still happy with your decision to get this done on the first night, you open the door to the rental shop and your stomach drops. It seems that you weren’t the only one with this novel idea.
It takes you a long hour to finally get your family fitted for ski boots, ski’s, ski poles and helmets. Then your daughter realizes she left her goggles at home, and your son completely forgot his helmet. You grudgingly buy them both new items.
“There has to be another way,” is all you can think as you watch your dollars and your precious vacation time slip away…
