Had a fantastic stay at the Nevada Beach Campground. One of the cleanest and quietest campgrounds I have ever stayed. This was right before the busy summer season. The hosts were friendly and super helpful. We biked in and loved the easy commute it my bike and having breakfast on the beach.

Nevada Beach Campground is my very favorite in the area. Each site has generous space, a bear proof box, picnic table, and fire pit. As a local, I have camped at Nevada Beach Campground yearly, up to three times a summer. The last several years that hasn't been possible, due to all sites being reserved within minutes January 1, when the reservation site opens.

The campsite was probably the cleanest site I've been to, even raked! The staff consistently ride around checking and cleaning up the grounds, taking pride in their space. They also communicated any bear sightings and were a friendly resource for local hikes.

It’s not cheap but it’s a great experience in Lake Tahoe! The view is stunning, with beautiful sunsets and sunrises and you can enjoy the beach whenever you want! The campground is almost on the sand.
The only things missing are: shower/ and dump. No possibility to take a shower, to fill your water tank or use a dump station so be prepared.

- Standard cancellations usually have a $10 cancellation fee. Customers can generally cancel before the check-in date online.

Switching to the same type of campsite for the same dates usually has no change fee, but price differences are charged or refunded.
