If you're like most people, you probably picture Squaw Valley as a winter wonderland, blanketed with snow and filled with skiers. Built over 50 years ago as the valley's first home, the Inn is now two separate entities, a lodge and restaurant, under one roof.
Weddings take place in the restaurant or on the grounds and guests can stay overnight in the Inn.
The expansive lawn next to the Inn is a sunny spot for an alpine ceremony. Bordered by tall pines on one end, it over looks tree-studded mountains on the other. The large redwood deck adjacent to the restaurant is covered by an awning and glassed in and can be heated on cool nights. It's perfect for post-event cocktails, a small reception or dancing, while the restaurant itself provides an intimate ambiance for larger parties. With it's peaked pine ceiling and floor to ceiling river rock fireplace, Graham's feels a bit like a cozy mountain lodge.
