When thinking of what to give your family and friends-who-are-family this holiday season, what comes to mind? It’s likely an item or two you know they’d like, right? This year do a little more and give a gift that can’t be bought in the stores; a gift with more meaning.
Here are a few things we know the special people in your life will appreciate far more than anything you could possibly get off the shelves of their favorite store.
Holiday Gift Guide
A Christmas Buffet overlooking Bass Lake
There are holiday traditions we love to uphold and family members we can’t wait to see! But with that comes a lot of prepping, cooking, and cleaning—most of which takes a lot of time.
The Christmas Day Buffet at Bass Lake is a wonderful way to spend less time cooking and cleaning, and more time embracing your loved ones. After all, these precious moments are fleeting.
To make reservations, please call 559-692-8857.
A Romantic Getaway
As wonderful as it is to vacation with our children and extended family, one-on-one time with our significant others is much needed (and appreciated!). Moreover, sometimes the experiences shared when going on vacation far exceeds the value of a gift purchased from a store. After all, the joy that comes from vacationing with your better half is something no store-bought gift could compare to.
So, gift your better half with a lovely romantic getaway that will leave you both reinvigorated and reconnected.
There are three Romantic Getaway options to choose from here at The Pines Resort. These include:
- Bed & Breakfast (Starting at $149) – a lovely package for those with a lot on their plate. Know a mom? Whether she’s a new mom or has been raising kids for the past 10+ years, this gift is the perfect token of appreciation and acknowledgment of all she does.
- Time for Two (Starting at $159) – similar to the Bed & Breakfast, this package is great for a night away, with the added bonus of a $50 dining certificate for a romantic dinner at Ducey’s on the Lake.
- The Celebration Package (Starting at $318) – Have some time to spare? This two-night getaway is great for celebrating life, love, and everything in between. With this package, you’ll receive:
- a two-night stay for two
- One (1) $30 dining certificate for breakfast at Ducey’s on the Lake
- One (1) $50 dining certificate for dinner at Ducey’s on the Lake
- Wine with🍷 logo glasses (as a welcome gift from us)
For a limited time, we are offering Holiday Gift Certificates starting at $115 for a one-night stay for two in a chalet OR suite with the option to include a dining certificate. Availability is limited, so get yours soon!
Gift Cards
Gift cards are the perfect gift for someone when you have some idea of what they’d like, but want to give them the freedom to decide how and when they’ll do it.
When you give gift cards to The Pines Resort, you enable your family and friends to decide what exactly they’d like to do while here. They can apply it toward their room or chalet, a meal at Ducey’s on the Lake or Ducey’s Bar & Grill, or some of the countless items at The Pines Market. And, they never expire.
To purchase, please call 800-350-7463.

Snow Gear
Did we mention how much better experiences are than store-bought gifts? Reinforce the gift of play by purchasing the necessary snow gear for your loved ones, ad booking a 2019 Snow-cation (is that a thing?!) to Bass Lake. It’s the perfect way to get the kids excited about playing outdoors in the cold weather and make some incredible memories!
Donation to the Wildland Firefighter Foundation
As you know, wildfires have ravaged the state of California this year. Continue to show appreciation for brave men and women who selflessly put their lives at stake by giving a donation to the Wildland Firefighter Foundation in your family’s name, or in the names of friends who would love to donate. It’s a beautiful way to say Thank you during the holidays.
The Promise of a Fun-Filled New Year
Ring in the new year with the ones you love. Treat those closest to you to a beautiful New Year’s Eve dinner & celebration overlooking beautiful Bass Lake.
