Top rental place. We booked for our family of 5 online and got a 10% discount by paying up front. The guys in store were extremely professional, gave good advice and sound tips. Very reasonable value. Slightly limited selection of gear, but it is the end of season. Highly recommended!

It was easy and quick to get our cross country ski gear and they gave us some good suggestions on where to go. Will definitely go back to Tahoe Dave's Skis & Boards

The price and gear make the poor service acceptable! The employees were just not very friendly, they gave good advice but did not seem interested in helping me very much.

Ski shops staff can vary from incompetent to highly competent. We found Dave's ski rental and tuning staff HIGHLY competent. We came here ONLY to rent skis and poles. The equipment guy listened to our needs, our skill level, etc., asked one or two questions, and then made two recommendations; we chose one (Volkyl skis). The skis had sharp edges... More

The staff took their time to ensure a safe and comfortable fit, appropriately accounted for skill level and demonstrated a commitment to providing the best experience for our group. The sell discounted passes to Homewood ski resort, which was less crowded and perfect for our level of proficiency!
