This was a great, quiet, campsite with amenities (beach, store) right outside the entrance. There is also a popular breakfast restaurant next to the entrance if you don't feel like cleaning up after yourself. It is not remote, but it is a nice getaway from the city that puts you close to all the adventures awaiting at north Lake Tahoe!

Ein ruhiger Platz am Lake Tahoe, gegenüber der vielbefahrenen Straße ist ein kleiner Laden. Baden im kalten See ist möglich. es gibt eine Buslinie am See entlang bis in den Norden, nachts ist sie sogar kostenlos.

Nice campground. Clean facilities. Bizarre layout where the picnic bench, extended area, and your bear box are on the back side of your camper, not the front.

Great site! Quiet and close to the water with a cute store/coffee shop a short walk away. Dog friendly with clean bathrooms. No cell service at the site but you can get it when you walk down to the lake.
