PARKING BASICS
Our new parking program
In an effort to mitigate traffic on regional roadways during peak times, we will be implementing a new reservation-based parking system at Palisades Tahoe this winter season. On weekends and holiday periods, a parking reservation will be required for ALL parking lots.
-
The vast majority of spots that require a reservation are FREE.
-
FREE parking reservations for the coming weekend will open every Tuesday. To accommodate different life schedules, we'll release 50% inventory at 12pm and 7pm.
-
For those who want to reserve well in advance, paid spots will be available for $30. For example, if you want to reserve a spot for Christmas, you can choose a paid reservation when inventory goes live. Otherwise, you can book a free reservation on the Tuesday prior to your visit.
-
We’ll continue to have dedicated close in carpool spots for those that are traveling with 3+ and encourage you to reserve with friends and family in advance. Reservations will still be required for the vehicle.



FREE MIDWEEK PARKING
-
On Monday through Friday, parking is free at both Palisades and Alpine.
-
You can just show up on Monday through Friday. Parking will be first come, first served.
-
Reservations are NOT required midweek, with the exception of some holiday blackout dates.

FREE RESERVED PARKING
On Saturdays, Sundays & Select Holidays
-
On Saturdays, Sundays, and select holidays, reservations are required.
-
FREE parking reservations for the coming weekend will open every Tuesday.
-
On each Tuesday, inventory for the coming weekend will be released at 12 p.m. and 7 p.m.
-
Parking is free with no reservations required on Monday-Friday, with some holiday blackout dates.

ADVANCED PAID RESERVATIONS
-
This is the best option for guests who need to reserve Saturdays, Sundays, or holidays WELL IN ADVANCE.
-
Paid reservations are $30 per spot, per day.
-
For example, if you want to ensure a spot for Christmas, you can choose a paid reservation advance when they open in October. Otherwise, you can book a free reservation on the Tuesday beforehand.
