What Guests Are Saying
Nevada Beach Campground is highly praised for its stunning location near Lake Tahoe, clean facilities, and friendly staff, particularly campground hosts Adam and Janet. Campers enjoy the beautiful combination of sandy beaches and pine forests, as well as the peaceful atmosphere, especially during the shoulder season. While reservations can be challenging to secure and some amenities, like restrooms, need improvement, the overall experience is characterized by cleanliness and a welcoming environment, making it a favorite for many.

Very good, although disappointed that no dogs on leash and no dogs on the beach were not enforced.
I was also very disappointed with respect to all wildfires around the country in our forests that you would promote and sell firewood.

The beach is beautiful, and the water is incredibly clear and refreshing, although very cold. There are not enough restrooms, and unfortunately, there is usually a line. Most of the restroom doors do not close properly or are difficult to shut. There are no showers available. Entry is $12 per day, and both cash and card are accepted. The beach is open from 8:00 AM to 8:00 PM. I do not have any information about camping.

Lovely campground, great beach, and camp hosts were great. Site 43 is good with a good amount of space between both neighbors. If you are setting up your tent at night, look carefully to ensure you're not setting up over an ant hole as there were many throughout the site (though ample space for tents in between). Also, note that there are deer mouse nesting in the tree roots near the picnic table/bear box. They weren't a problem, but they were active at night, so whatever food items you're not paying attention to on the table after dusk is probably fair game.

I love how well kept this campground is. The beach is exquisite. And all the staff are friendly and helpful. I also love that every time I camp here the other campers seem to acknowledge the luck they get for booking at this campground and are very respectful and kind.

Such a wonderful campground. Right next to the beach, the campground is mostly sand, less dirt than others. The big thing that makes it great is the amazing staff. They are friendly yet protective of the campground and us campers. This place is walking distance to Round Hill Pines resort which is a gem also. The only downside are the day trippers, they block and clog everything on warm days and especially weekends.
