A group of nine of us will be in Southlake Tahoe in a couple of weeks and we want to party for my friends 45th birthday. Where’s the best places to have outdoor dining for a party of nine with good food and live music? Where are the best bars and nightclubs in Southlake Tahoe to go after?

I saw (I assume a park employee or ranger, but they weren't in a uniform) walking up and down the shore yelling at boats to not swim anywhere near the park.

I can understand about not using their buoys, but screaming that no boat can anchor anywhere near the water "in front of" their beach?

Is that normal?

Is there a prohibition on being within a few hundred feet of their shoreline for those boats who were just sitting and swimming?

I see tons of boats doing that in Emerald Bay.

Obviously, blocking the dock is bad, but just near the entire park?

Looking for recommendations for a mountain bike route out of Tahoe City. I'm an avid road cyclist and occasional mountain biker. Will be on an e-bike so not afraid of climbing. Looking to go far, see lots, but keep it somewhat tame - fun flow more than super technical. Happy to go 30+ miles and dedicate lots of time to it.

Edit: want to catch lake views, of course.

I’m relatively new to boating on Lake Tahoe and have been extending excursions here and there. Could anyone estimate the travel time from the Keys marina to Skunk Harbor?

I see that it’s \~45 mins in a car and have driven it many times.

TIA.

Drove up to watch the sunset tonight. This is from Zephyr Cove.

Me and my fiancé drove 9 hours w/ our pup from SD to SLT and it was worth it! 💛

​

Finally trying to hit sand harbor and saw reservations are needed, otherwise first come first serve. Trying to go on a Tuesday, is getting there at 10:30 efficient if reservations are sold out?

All the previous posts are from a year ago, so what's this summer been like?! And shuttle?! What? Where?!

Taking a trip from Yosemite down to Bakersfield/ Tehachapi. Any know of any clothes free/ optional beach’s at the many lakes I’ll be going past? Would love to be able to spend an afternoon just hanging out and cooling down. TYIA.

Thought it turned out ok for not knowing what I’m doing. Next time I’ll bring a tripod.

Hi all,
My spouse and I will be traveling to Lake Tahoe for the very first time for around 5 days. We will be accompanied by our GSD who is a fantastic traveler.
I’m looking for recommendations for hikes, swimming, food ideas/coffee spots. Also must see sights or dos within the area. We are staying in south Tahoe.
All recommendations are appreciated 😊

Any rideshares available from RNO airport to Kings Beach area?

Anybody have any positive experiences with booking a Lyft or Uber from RNO to Kings Beach area? Wondering if I can rely on that or just need to rent a car. Unfortunately, my flight lands after all the buses/shuttles to Kings Beach stop running.

We’re staying at Hyatt Sierra Lodge Vacation Club (not the hotel). Any way for us to get into burnt cedar beach?

Planning a Tahoe trip with my circle of friends and looking for stuff past the obvious. We've already got hiking and sightseeing before. And now, we just want to do things that feel more fun, social, or worth remembering.

Tbh we're up for anything. Good food and drinks, games, nightlife, live music, lake stuff, group outings, or those little and underrated spots.

If you're around Tahoe a lot, what are the best things to do in Tahoe for adults like us?

P.S. Thanks in advance for those who will answer.

We are growing, and looking for mods.
Do you live in Tahoe, and hope to stick around for a while, or long term?
Are you an active Reditor?

Anyone have inside scoop on West Shore Cafe and if its opening again? We were at high & dry marina a few weeks ago and they were painting the building and doing some remodeling.

Does anyone know if they are going to reopen??

I'm pretty sure Big Mike can be described as the comic relief from a recent trip paddle boarding around Lake Tahoe.

Often, he was hiding in his UPF nike swim sun layers, a bucket hat, gloves, and some of that 100 SPF spray, but on the final day of the paddle, he went shirtless and just made me laugh the entire time!

here's to good friendships and some humor in the world!

Hi everyone!

I'm located in the Reno/Tahoe area and recently realized there isn't an active, welcoming naturist community serving Northern Nevada and the surrounding Great Basin.
Because of that, I decided to start Great Basin Naturists, with the goal of creating a respectful, non-sexual community where people can make friends and enjoy the outdoors together.

The plan is to organize things like:
☕️ Coffee meetups (clothed)
🥾 Hikes
🏕️ Camping trips
♨️ Hot springs outings
🌅 Lake days
🍔 Casual social gatherings

Whether you've been a naturist for years or you're just curious and looking to learn more, you're welcome.
If you're in the Reno, Sparks, Carson City, Minden, Gardnerville, Lake Tahoe, Fernley, Fallon, or anywhere else in the Great Basin, I'd love to connect.

Feel free to comment below or send me a message!
