Lake Tahoe offers you and your family many shopping options among which are a couple of fantastic antique places, where one of a kind objects d'art are the norm.
At South Lake Tahoe Antiques and Thrift you get great deals on furniture and fantastic finds such as Indian wood carvings, a giant Jimmy Hendrix oil painting among others, alcohol bottles from the 1800s and classic skateboards are just some odds and ends from floor to ceiling.
Girasole is another awesome antique store and dealer which also carries exquisite pieces of jewelry. Mostly from other countries, many pieces of furniture are up for grabs. Traveling back and forth to Tuscany, Rome and Umbria, Girasole's owner makes available to you many exotic soaps, Northern Italian dinnerware, cookbooks and paintings.
With the rugged Sierra Nevada as the backdrop, the Squaw Valley is a great place to shop. Take the kids on the cable car for some amazing photos up at High Camp. Squaw Valley was the site of the 1960 Winter Olympic Games.
Visit the Olympic Museum full of videos for you to see before going to First Street Leather, located at the end of Squaw Valley Road, for leather jackets, hats, shoes, belts and handbags. This is one shopping expedition you will never forget.
