I like where Meek's Bay Campground is located which is close to a sandy beach and also between the north and south end of Lake Tahoe.

Perfect proximity to Lake Tahoe and a beautiful view. The bears are a huge problem though so be alert. The bathrooms and showers were kept pretty clean but didn't always work. Get your tokens before the store closes!

unfortunately, the bathrooms were not well stocked or maintained .
The sites were not posted with the reservations. Our site was occupied when we arrived. I spoke with the camp host who was not helpful. Told us that maybe they needed more time to exit. So we keep checking on our site throughout the day but it was still occupied and no one was at the camp site. When we came back later that day the folks were set up and cooking their dinner. These people were not even registered campers but the camp host was no help so we had to confront the campers. Eventually we able to occupy our site. Someone needs to manage these sites better. Most campgrounds at least inspect the sites and post the reservations.

Recommend limit on number of day use people allowed into beach each day. Some days so crowded and if you are paying to stay in resort you shouldn’t have to fight for access.

Beautiful site, secluded from other campsites/cabins. However, there were no bear boxes or bear-proof trash cans provided. There was only an open trash can in the cabin and you half to hike quite aways to the nearest bear proof trashcan to dispose of trash. Lo and behold, a bear tried to break in. When we let the staff know, they informed us that a bear tries to break into this cabin every other day. So if you are looking to encounter a bear, by all means, stay here. Otherwise wait until they decide to equip this cabin properly, if they ever do.

We enjoyed our time at Meeks Bay. The beach is within walking distance from your site, you can rent kayaks and paddleboards at the office, and the snack bar is delicious. We only wished the snack bar and office stayed open longer as both opened late morning and closed late afternoon. The bathrooms and showers in the campground (not by the beach) were kept clean.

Very nice location: quiet, far enough from the hiway, beautiful beach and lake view.
Accommodations are so-so: basic, traditional rustic Tahoe. Cleanliness: fair. Shower area had no shower curtain.
