Very comfortable, heavily treed RV sites. Next to Zephyr cove beach and the dinner cruise boat. close enough to South Tahoe, but not the crowds. Would stay again

Definitely a nice place to camp. It was a bit of a challenge at first to figure out that the tent spot was above the bear box and picnic bench area but once that was established it was a perfect camp site. Showers were hot and the bathrooms were close by. I did eat at the restaurant across the street and enjoyed watching the sunset. Food was delicious. Highly recommended. The next morning I packed up and drove across the street to Paddle board Lake Tahoe. Highly recommend. You have a beach bar with food available, clean restrooms and chill vibes. I will definitely be returning.
