Great views

Amazing views, what do you expect, it's Tahoe! Campsite is only accessible via boat or hike in from the road. Hike down wasn't bad at all, you can take a paved service road down, about 1.5 miles. Easy access to nearby hiking trails, Vikingsholm mansion, and Eagle Falls. The hike in/boat access limits the number of people, so the site isn't too crowded. Highly recommended with such beautiful views of the lake!
