Pretty area & nice beach!
Nice campground with a dog-friendly beach! The hosts said bears frequent the area, but we didn't see any. Our campsite was very peaceful and quiet.

Peaceful lake
Large sites very peaceful. Most sites close to the lake. We visited the last week of August. Expect to see bears. Hosts were clear about the need to keep campsites clear of food. Since you could not dump dish water on ground because of the bears it was more effort to wash up after meals. It would be nice if there was a dish washing station . We have seen this at other campsites we have been to. The have AT&A cell service had good service

Beautiful, but lacks services/amenities
The campground is beautiful, well maintained with great access to Lake Tahoe's sandy beaches. If you have a dog, this is the place to take it as there are many here playing on the beach. The negative: no amenities. There are no shower facilities, no dump station, no trail maps. Honestly, I could have boondocked for free and had the same access to everything. There are many trails into the park that allow beach access. Not worth the camping fees.
Popular Site on the Beach
Pros: Great location with views of the beach. Walking distance to beach. Sites are spacious enough. Saw 2 falling stars while stargazing on the beach!
Cons: Crowded. Lots of RVs. Difficult to get a reservation. Reservations unreliable. Camp sites are not directly on the beach.
FYI: There is a smaller dog-friendly area of the beach, so if you’re bringing your pup(s), your beach access will be limited to that area only.
Lovely location...unreliable reservation system
We stayed here in our roof top camper in October 2018. The campground itself was nice as it was immersed in forest. We made a reservation online as we were on our way to the campground. I don't recommend doing this because their online system did not sync in a timely fashion with their in-person system. Meaning, when we arrived, the spot we had reserved was being used by someone else. Fortunately, there was another spot still available that the camp host was able to direct us to.
The absolutely best thing about camping here was being a short, short walk from the shore of Lake Tahoe. This lake is breathtakingly beautiful and is at its best in the early morning hours, with a cup of something hot to drink in your hands as you stand on the shore and gaze at the amazing colors and clarity of the water against a back drop of the Sierras. And in October, I can almost guarantee you'll have the beach to yourself. :)
It was extremely cold the night we stayed, with temps hovering around freezing, but once tucked inside our sleeping bags in our camper, we were plenty warm.
It was one of the pricier campgrounds we've stayed at, costing $39/night.
It was very near town, so you could easily go to a restaurant to eat if you want to (we went to a pizza place.) It's also very near a Catholic church.

The Best Place to Camp at Tahoe
Always enjoy our time here. Campsites are wide and the place is clean and well cared for by staff. Close to shopping and beach. Bathrooms are clean with pay showers.
beautiful campground
This campground was one of the nicest I've come across. It's right on the California-nevada state line near Lake Tahoe. In my opinion, this is one of the most beautiful places in the US. A lot of the campsites have a view of the lake. They have sites for tents and RVs. The bathrooms are nice and there's fresh drinking water. There are some public grills to use. Really nice amenities at this place.
I personally just love lake Tahoe. Amazing hiking around the lake. Mount Tallac is a killer but gorgeous hike. Go stand on the line between Nevada and California like I did! In the winter this place is awesome too, because the ski resort has some great runs.

Peaceful and Breezy
Campground right on Nevada Beach shore of Lake Tahoe. Very quiet where we were with little to no traffic noise. We were right near Dog Beach where your pooch can play on the beach unleashed. We camped the first weekend the campground opened. Things were still a bit wet (standing water that we had to use a board to cross to get to the bathrooms) but the beautiful weather and quiet campground made up for it. I wish it opened earlier in the season before Tahoe becomes packed. It was easy to just stay at the camp and avoid the crowds. No showers.

Snow on the lake
This was the first stop on my National park road trip. Not an N.P. but it was the perfect distance for my first leg from Eugene,Or.
I got into camp in early afternoon to find it snowing; in early May. I was hoping that I had waited long enough to avoid too much snow. Luckily it stopped just as I was finishing my tent setup. It didn't stick in the campgrounds, but dusted the mountains nicely.
This campground was on the smaller side, I lucked out it being off season, I was able to score a site. At $33 it was a little steeper than I was expecting for a tent site, but It was well worth it. It was a short walk to the sandy lake beach and awesome mountain views. I can only imagine how busy this place gets in the winter. There were hiking trails nearby, unfortunately I hadn't the time or energy as I had to continue on my journey early in the morn. I imagine they would have breathtaking views.
Each site had tables and firepits. I don't recall water bibs, but I had already planned ahead and brought my own. They had a covered group area where I'm sure many weddings have taken place.
There were nice clean flush restrooms and garbage/recycling areas.

Great place to play Beach Volleyball
This is a great place to swim, set up a beach net, and get a tan. Overall the campgrounds are clean. Sometimes you get some ruffians about but they usually only show up at night.
