The staff is just fantastic. The campground is always clean and just a wonderful place to stay. They make you feel welcomed and we cannot wait to return.

Was enjoying my morning when a camp host aggressively approached with fists balled up. He jumped off his cart so fast I thought he would crash. He was convinced I did not have a reservation. I had to show him my reservation confirmation twice because he thought I had forged the camp tag. This person does not have the temperament to be a camp host. Very bad experience that ruined a nice camping vacation.

Its a beautiful location with spacious sites.

@KenD4490873 · Camped on Sep 30, 2024 at Campsite #37

Setting was great, the staff was helpful, the bathrooms were clean. Great times!

@KarenST3DD6C13 · Camped on Sep 29, 2024 at Campsite #6

Only complaints: too many campers in individual sites. More than campground rules supposedly allow. Rules need to remind campers to NOT walk through others sites. Rude!

@harbanss0638E1 · Camped on Sep 29, 2024 at Campsite #13

Very well managed. Hosts are very kind and helpful.

This is the most difficult campground to get a reservation at. We live in Nevada and can't compete with all of the California population reservations. Due to the fact that the campground is in Nevada, I think there should be some priority for Nevada Citizens to reserve camp spaces. I doubt that I will get a response to this, but I would greatly appreciate it.

Site 13 has a ton of space for tents. We had 3 tents and had plenty of space for more. Nice view of the lake. Parking pad could fit 4 cars if that many are allowed. Bathrooms were clean. A coyote consistently roamed the campground early morning for food on each of my visits, so use that bear box. My only suggestion is better communication with camp hosts. 100 percent of my interactions with the hosts over my several visits this summer went like this: host approaches me with hostility, I nicely share I have a reservation, host becomes really great and helpful. I don't know if that means people need to be nicer to camp hosts, but any hostile first interaction could become bigger than it needs to be. Otherwise, hosts were great.

Amazing.

@SupaponIB74119 · Camped on Sep 25, 2024 at Campsite #39

Recommended place to stay. Very Nice and clean overall. Attach to the beach with wonderful view.

@RoyN9668812 · Camped on Sep 16, 2024 at Campsite #28

Beautiful camping among the towering trees, right next to Lake Tahoe. Our site had no one nearby.

@BeckiEC522EACB · Camped on Sep 14, 2024 at Campsite #14

My favorite campground in Tahoe! It's hard to get a spot here, but for good reason. Easy beach access and a short drive/walk to town.

@KeithS1904554 · Camped on Sep 8, 2024 at Campsite #29

Second time here. Such a nice campground, quiet, great beach, good hiking and also rode my bike 15 minutes to state line to have a beer and a bite and watch Monday football!!

@SarahL7105976 · Camped on Sep 5, 2024 at Campsite #34

What a beautiful place. Every parking spot was filled but it felt private as there was good space between each. Most people were in rather large vehicle campers but my little tent was great. The beach setting was a close walk and the views were incredible. Only complaint were the plethora of dogs and ALL off leash. Most were controlled very well except one who not only personally came up and bothered me withou the owner paying any attention to it as she picked its giant defecation at the edge of the water. I had to shout at her to control her animal. There is an area meant for people on the beach with dogs but they wer everywhere

This is our first time at this Nevada campground and I have to say that I am pretty impressed. Our campsite is 48; it was all the way at the end of the loop. It had a number of trees and pretty good shadesuper clean and beautiful. The bathrooms are super clean and the hosts are super friendly especially Donna.The Nevada Beach is just nearby at a walkable distance with super clear waterthere is a trail next to the campground that leads to the Round Hill beach which is another great one with facilities like jet skiing, kayak rentals, paddle boarding etc. Overall, a great campground that is centrally situated to a number of Nevada beaches.

@RobertW1226972 · Camped on Aug 27, 2024 at Campsite #23

Love Nevada Beach. The southern most restroom could use some updating but the campground is one of our favorites. We love that there is a dog legal beach. A little disappointed that some of the hiking trails were decommissioned.

@cathycianFFFB1 · Camped on Aug 26, 2024 at Campsite #48

We always enjoy our camping adventure at Nevada Beach. The Rangers and camp host Are always very attentive and helpful. They really take time raking the sites around fire pits and keeping bathrooms clean . If they had showers would even pay a higher fee , or pay for showers. Just wish it was easier to get reservations. We had 2 new nights ; tent camping;2 different campsites ( had to move). Maybe if they could add more sites? Be even better. Thanks.

@JamesM9879118 · Camped on Aug 25, 2024 at Campsite #49

Host keep the place very clean and communicating late arrivals. Way too many rules about parking in the Beach Parking lot- No trailers not even small ones that could fit in a parking spot, not cool. I can see it on busy weekends but not on weekdays.

@ChadDF401674C3 · Camped on Aug 25, 2024 at Campsite #41

Nevada Beach is amazing - best place to camp at Tahoe by far. Sad thing is everyone knows this and so you are extremely lucky if you manage to book a site.

@AndreasG985316 · Camped on Aug 25, 2024 at Campsite #21

Great Place and very friendly staff

@aleksandeF1D3E · Camped on Aug 22, 2024 at Campsite #15

Friendly workers and very clean!

I work near this campground and when I went on my break to drop off the RV, I was met by Donna. I explained that I am just dropping it off and have to head back to work and my husband is going to take me back to work. She said if he what's to come in, it will be $9. I said we are not staying, he's just picking me up and we are leaving. She again stated that she will have to charge us $9. Just for going in. That's the rules and she has to abide by them. Well, I had the farthest site from the entrance and had to walk back with a bad hip to the front. When I arrived at the front she makes the comment "I see you made it" She want's act like she follows the rules however my friends have experienced where she allows them to drive in their tow vehicle behind their RV and she says' 'that's a tow vehicle,,right". No charge. I found she is a stickler with some and not others. I have not seen a rule where you are not allowed to drive thru the campground to pick up someone. I hope I never have to run into again as she acts sweet but isn't.

@OksanaK40B5FC4 · Camped on Aug 17, 2024 at Campsite #49

Very nice ! The only thing is that closer to the end of August we had a lot of wasps outside. Couldnt have any meals outside.Also, was pretty hard to get water for our trailer. Had to drive every time to the bathroom for it.

Beautiful location, great campground, fantastic staff!Please limit generator use. The noise and fumes are noxious and unnecessary.

@BranJen - Santa Clara, CA

I wanted to thank you for this site and especially for the notifications feature. Thanks to your site and my subscription I was able to book a campsite I've been annoyingly trying to book for 5 years unsuccessfully. So thank you.

@Wondering - Oregon

Wow! Woke up this morning to a notification that a favorite had opened at Paulina, and when I went to check, it was there. This membership just paid for itself in the first 24 hours I owned it. Couldn't take the site it conflicted with a trip already set, but it truly was there. Thanks Tons.

@CarlaLThompson - Colorado

I just love this site and I tell everyone about it! It's so competitive to secure desired campsites and the alerts really help track when sites free up. The best part of this story is our alert notified a cancellation the next day!!!!!! Just incredible!!!
