Special CVI Buffets Next Week, Mother’s Day Weekend Package, More at the Carson Valley Inn

Omelet Station - We'll Make it Your Way!

Buffet Lovers Come On Inn!
Breakfast, lunch, and dinner buffets will be served in our Valley Ballroom next week while we close Katie's for a few days for equipment upgrading and remodeling in the kitchen “line” area. Starting early Monday, January 27 you can enjoy a Breakfast Buffet in the Valley Ballroom from 6 AM to 11 AM for just $8.99 featuring an omelet station. The daily Lunch Buffet will run from 11 AM until 2 PM for $9.99 and a Dinner Buffet will be available from 4 to 8 PM for $10.99. The lunch and dinner buffets both include a soup & salad bar and a carving station. This special buffet service will run for two – four days until the Katie’ remodeling is completed. During this project, we will not be offering “to-go” orders or Bar Snacks. The Bakery Counter will also be closed, but we’ll try to have some of the desserts in Job’s Perk. Thanks for your patience as we make these updates.

Tickets for the Tanya Tucker June 6 concert in TJ's Corral are available through our website on this page. You can also stop by or call (775-783-6606) our hotel registration desk. Also on sale are tickets for the Charlie Daniels Band concert in TJ's on Friday, June 26.

Mother's Day Weekend Hotel Package
Last week we posted information about our Valentine's Day Overnight Stay and Dine package. It's been nice to see so many people act quickly rather than wait until the last minute as we (written by a guy) sometimes do!  Next up on our special packages is Mother's Day Weekend when we offer two nights' accommodations, dining credit and a special treat from the popular Chocolate Shoppe on arrival. All the details are at this link and we invite you to leave the kids with mom and visit us for a romantic weekend with your spouse . . . or perhaps your situation is more suited for treating your parents to a special getaway treat.

Opening Reception at Last Year's Eagles & Ag
Eagles & Agriculture This Weekend
Cameras, binoculars, and telephoto lenses will be hanging around the necks of many of our guests this weekend as Eagles and Agriculture, Carson Valley's annual gathering of eagles and celebration of agriculture, headquarters at the Carson Valley Inn.  As of today, the Thursday Opening Reception held at the Douglas County Community & Senior Center and the Friday Falconers Dinner at the Carson Valley Inn still have availability. Some of the tours are sold out but the sponsor, the Carson Valley Chamber of Commerce, invites you to call them at 775-782-8144 to check last minute availability or possibly get on a waiting list. More information on the Eagles and Agriculture weekend is available at this link.
