From Twain’s wit to Capone’s charm (or lack thereof), the legends are stepping into the spotlight.
Chautauqua kicks off this morning at Dangberg Home Ranch Historic Park with a full season of first-person performances—morning, evening, and special showcases. Add in toe-tapping concerts, thought-provoking speakers, and page-turning author events, and you’ve got a summer that’s truly historic.

Walk into JT Basque Bar & Dining Room and you’re walking into a time capsule—where cowboy hats hang like trophies, dollar bills dance from the ceiling, and every wall tells a story (literally). The historic decor isn’t just for looks—it’s a full-on feast for your eyes before the feast hits your table. Come for the flavors, stay for the setting, and soak up the nostalgia that’s been aging as well as their wine. 🍷👢💵

Our Story

Welcome to the land of everyday legends.

Adventures aren’t always measured by flashy gadgets. Sometimes they arrive in a glass at the oldest, quirkiest, most memorable saloon you’ll ever set foot in, served up by a salty blonde and raised in the company of folks who know better than to order a Malbec. Other times, those adventures are realized in the still of the desert as you ride shotgun with a local Joe in a Jeep, searching the morning light for bands of unbridled wild horses. Then again, it may be the Basque dinner where bread, beans, local meats and wine create an atmosphere where there’s no such thing as “strangers.” It’s a scene that’s a great follow up to a day of single-track madness or a ride in a glider soaring silently above Lake Tahoe and the Carson Valley. Such is the pace, flavor and the unprocessed pleasures that accompany every adventure to Carson Valley.
