As new grandparents, we were a bit reluctant to go with a 6 weeks old baby for a stay at Tahoe. We are from Delaware and our son's family lives in San Francisco. Our son assured us it would be fine, the baby was a good traveler and everyone would be more relaxed than if we invaded his house for a more than an overnight. It was a perfectly wonderful spot to have a family reunion. Our daughter-in-law could relax, we all had fun preparing leisurely dinners, and we enjoyed beautiful sunny, fall weather. The house was delightful, surrounded by pine trees, close enough for leisurely walks into town for shopping and dining, or hiking by the lake. The layout of the house provided privacy for everyone, and it lent an ambiance that made cooking fun for all of our quasi-chefs. Even the baby enjoyed his stay.
