    Tahoe Donner Hires Steve Turner As Director of Food and Beverage

    For Immediate Release Tahoe Donner Hires Steve Turner as Director of Food and Beverage Truckee, Calif. (January 11, 2021) – Tahoe Donner is pleased to announce the hiring of Steve Turner as its new Food and Beverage Director. Turner brings nearly 30 years of executive culinary experience and will oversee Tahoe Donner’s restaurant offerings with a focus on providing exceptional customer service and premier quality to members and guests. After graduating from San Diego State University, Turner entered the restaurant business with his father as co-owners and operators of three restaurants in Southern California—The Saddle Back Bar and Grill, The Lite House Café, and the Skinny Haven Restaurant. In 1993, Turner began a long career as Director of Food and Beverage at several ski resorts including Sierra-at-Tahoe, Mammoth Mountain, and most recently Vail Resorts at Heavenly Mountain Resort from 2002-2018. This past year, Turner served as Senior Director of Food and Beverage operations for Caesars Entertainment Lake Tahoe which includes Harrah’s and Harvey’s. He had the incredible opportunity to successfully open Lake Tahoe’s first celebrity restaurant, Gordon Ramsay’s Hell’s Kitchen in South Lake Tahoe. “When the Director of Food and Beverage position became available at Tahoe Donner, I thought, this is too good to be true,” says Turner. “To work in such a beautiful mountain community that features all my favorite passions; restaurants, skiing, golf, mountain biking, hiking, tennis and more, is a dream. I look forward to being an integrated part of this great organization and community.” Turner and his wife Lorraine are long-time Tahoe locals.

    September 9, 2015 Dear Media Partner, Thanks for taking the time to learn about Diamond Peak Ski Resort and what makes it unique in the Lake Tahoe ski market. If you have never experienced Diamond Peak, this press kit will be a good introduction but the best way to get acquainted with this special place is to come see it for yourself! If you ski or snowboard I’d be happy to give you a full tour of the mountain this winter. Base area tours can also be arranged for those less inclined to sliding on the snow. Diamond Peak is located on the north shore of Lake Tahoe, near the Hyatt Regency Lake Tahoe, renowned restaurants, and the highest concentration of ski resorts in North America. Diamond Peak is known for amazing views, affordable prices, and a friendly atmosphere that families of all ages love. Diamond Peak skiers can take advantage of amazing deals, stretching out a ski vacation longer without breaking the bank. Enjoy incredible deals like the Flex Pass multiday ticket, $35 BYOP (Bring Your Other Pass) deal, $64 ($69 Holidays) Adult lift ticket rate, and free lift tickets for 6 and under and those over 80 years old. You’ll see from our photos that Diamond Peak has some of the most incredible views of Lake Tahoe. Views of the lake are best seen from Crystal Ridge and Snowflake Lodge, but guests can still enjoy lake views from the beginner slopes, Base Lodge deck and even the parking lot. Our HD webcam, mounted on the top of Crystal Ridge, allows you to enjoy these views and check conditions from the comfort of your screen.

    DESTINATION HIGHLIGHTS Win big. Lose yourself in Reno Tahoe. LIVE LIFE This is where the country’s largest alpine lake meets the Biggest Little City in the World. Here, ambition is fully inspired and quickly rewarded. Between the highest concentration of ski resorts in North America, America’s most beautiful lake*, and a river running through the heart of a city, there’s plenty of reward to go around. If you still don’t believe us, take a not-so-little trip through our 365-day event calendar, venture off the path into one of our stunning environments, or walk amongst our rumbling city streets. Wherever you go, we can promise you’ll find inspiration and forget inhibition. This is northern Nevada’s high desert playground and it’s yours for the taking—will you heed its call? *As voted by readers of USA TODAY To the wild and free. To the wild and free: You’ve come to the right place. When it comes to outdoor recreation, no place checks quite as many boxes as Reno Tahoe. Our 300 days of annual sunshine drench each of our jaw-droppingly unique landscapes. If secret alpine coves, lakefront ski slopes, and urban river floats aren’t your thing, rejoice. They’re only a fraction of what we have to offer. LIVE LIFE UNTAMED Drink up. Get down. Reno Tahoe’s bar and nightlife scene is anything but expected. Keep it low key at a quaint watering hole, grab a pint at a downtown brewery, then cap it off with a high ball at a pulse-pounding nightclub—all in one day.

And where there’s no shame in asking for seconds. So double down, double up and live like there’s 48 hours in a day. Northern Nevada’s High Desert Playground Even in a place with so much to offer, it’s easy to know where to start. Reno Tahoe checks every outdoor adventure box. No matter the season. Take a powder day with the highest concentration of ski resorts in North America. Hike, bike or tan alongside America’s most beautiful lake*. Or, go off the beaten path and kick up some high desert dirt in the face of the routine. To the wild and free, we say: you’ve come to the right place. *As voted by readers of USA TODAY HUNGRY? OF COURSE YOU ARE. When you invite renegades who aren’t easily satisfied to the table, you better be up to the task. Reno Tahoe delivers with a full menu of award- winning restaurants and eateries. Fuel up for the adventure ahead. Or, celebrate a day well-crushed. Grab some friends and grab a table on the river, the rooftop or wherever you damn-well please.
