GREAT place for small children - the Rainbow Trail is a short, flat loop, and has plenty of things to see. Kids will enjoy the Stream Profile Chamber where you can see fish swimming under water.

Sightseeing
A very short (less than a half mile) hike/walk that gives you one of the best panoramic view of Lake Tahoe possible.
From the Condo, drive about 12 miles East (towards Casinos) on HWY 50, and exit to your right on Cave Rock Road.
Immediately after your exit, Cave Rock Road will curve right slightly, then a sharp left curve. You will go a few hundred feet and reach a hairpin turn to the right, but instead of taking the turn, continue straight into the small gravel/dirt parking lot, park there and follow the trail up to the top of the rock. The very last part of the hike is slightly steep, but we have done the hike with our young son and grandparents, with no problem.

Food Scene
Lakefront restaurant - yes it is touristy and the food might be a B but the setting (sit in the back patio which is on the water of the Marina) is A+. You can actually get there via the beach from the condo, it's less than a quarter mile of walking on the sand.
