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.

Campsite was wonderful, though some company decided to do roadwork at 3am. Bathrooms were clean, sites were level, and water was available. No fires allowed, due to the fire danger, but that didn’t disrupt from our enjoyment. We were lucky to get a reservation for one night, but discovered that many people failed to show for their reservations. We could have camped longer if their sites were made available. We love this area of Tahoe. It is beautiful and relatively uncrowned, but only midweek. On weekends, the entrance road is packed with cars that don’t want to pay the day use fee. We wish that they would understand that their minor day use fees help to maintain and improve this campground and beach area. Also, some campers need to be permanently banned for not keeping their dogs leashed and under control, especially the ones with the dog that bit the park employee!

- 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.
