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.

Nice flat site, like most if not all of the sites at this campground. Ample room for 2+ tents. Not far from bathrooms or beach. Walking distance (~45 mins), mostly on trails, to all the Stateline action. One of the best beaches in Tahoe, but it's also open access to the general public and gets slammed early in the morning on weekends during the summer w/day trippers and their loud music and kids.

Site 44 had a two week stay around August 27 with small barking dogs. They left the dogs in the RV for several hours many times and the dogs barked 90% of the time. This is not safe for the dogs and was irritating for the rest of us. They should have been told to control there animals. BTW we have dogs and they are well controlled and we never leave them alone, So are the campground rules. Please remind the camp host and rangers to fix this issue.

Camp hosts and team are wonderful. Campsite was super clean. Unfortunately, the SQUIRRELS ARE UNBEARABLE! I tried to eat outside and was surrounded by 10 squirrels darting thru my feet and table. Moved lunch into my RV and the squirrels climbed the RV door while I ate. And this was same day South Tahoe announced the Plague was transmitted to a human at a local campground via squirrels.

We had a great time. The weather was fantastic. The campground is professionally run by Adam, Janet and their staff. They are the best campground hosts I have come across in 50 years of camping in the Sierras. One of the hosts, Michael, helped me the first day by cutting the lock off of my hitch when I forgot the key to it. We are a bit sorry they moved the boundary for the dog beach. It is now quite a bit further south than it was last year. It is such a popular spot that I think it needs more room. We hope this staff comes back next season. We can’t wait to camp here again.
