| An Extraordinary Location for Your Extraordinary Event
When
looking for an extraordinary location to host your special event, look no
further than the historic Thunderbird Lodge. The magical six-acre
waterfront estate, unparalleled in beauty, is a rare Lake Tahoe treasure.
From the three story waterfall that cascades past the granite boulders
in front of the Old Lodge, to the six hundred foot long tunnel and secret
passageways, the Thunderbird Lodge is sure to intrigue even the most
seasoned wedding and event guest. Meticulously assembled by dozens of
craftsmen - Cornish miners, Italian ironworkers, Scandinavian carpenters
and Native American stonemasons - the Lodge is truly a one-of-a-kind site
that will make your event exceptionally memorable.
Delight your guests with a complimentary guided tour of the Thunderbird
Lodge. The Lodge's owner, George Whittell Jr., had near unlimited wealth
in the post Depression era and spared no expense in the construction of
his whimsical "Lake Cottage". At one time, Whittell owned 1/3 of Lake
Tahoe's shoreline and the surrounding 40,000 acres. Stories abound of his
infamous, high stakes poker games which he hosted in the estate's Card
House and the chorus girls that he secreted in through the tunnel to
entertain his guests. His pet lion Bill maintains his own notoriety in
Lake Tahoe's history.
The Thunderbird Lodge offers over 3,000 square feet of interior space.
The surrounding grounds include a lakeside lawn, two patios, a gazebo, and
a private sandy lagoon connected by stone pathways.
You won't find a more enchanting or memorable location for your wedding
than the historic Thunderbird Lodge. The Lodge's lakeside lawn provides a
tranquil setting, while Lake Tahoe and the surrounding snow-capped
mountains become the panoramic backdrop for your ceremony, your
photographs, and your reception.
The waterfront gazebo and the secluded patios connected by stone pathways
provide special gathering places for the enjoyment of your wedding guests.
The Lighthouse Room, Conference Room, and the serene lakeside lawn are the
perfect location for your special seated dinner and sunset dancing.
Your guests will take pleasure in their guided tour of this historic Tahoe
estate and remember the magical time they had at the Thunderbird Lodge for
years to come.
