- Downtown Tahoe City (take Highway 28 west to get there)
- Historic downtown Truckee (Highway 28 west, Highway 267 north)
- The Village at Squaw Valley (Highway 28 to Tahoe City, go 4 miles north on Highway 89, turn left at the signs Squaw Valley – note the Olympic torch as you turn off Highway 89) http://www.squaw.com/winter/shopping
- The Village at Northstar (take Highway 267 over Brockway Summit, turn left into Northstar) http://www.northstarattahoe.com/info/ski/the-village/village_directory.asp
- Virginia City – this historic western town is only 13 miles from where the Mount Rose Highway hits Highway 395 (go over Mount Rose Highway to Reno – the Mount Rose Highway becomes Highway 341, follow 341 into Virginia City).
