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.

We really enjoyed the grounds, beach is very nice, plenty of shaded areas , staff is very friendly, restrooms were regularly cleaned and restocked with toilet paper( no soap though). A few things were on the. way of our enjoyment only. One is that too many people had their RVs running over the night and we being the true campers, felt like we barely slept and were camping on the street with all the noise the whole night. Second thing is a lot of the people that visit the place don't really care about the environment. I had to clean out our camp site from zip ties, bottle caps, and cigarette buds left from previous campers.

Very spacious and a short walk to the lake. There are also trails nearby. The cons was not enough water faucets near my site and the neighbor talked loud into the late night and early morning affecting sleep. Host should have handled the situations.

Campground was clean..I was a little surprised when they called me and asked if I had left since I left 2 days prior to my departure. They did give me 1 day back but double dipped on the other day. Not really a cool or correct thing to do. If you are going to profit from me not using a site I paid for then share the money.
