Nevada Beach Campground and Day Use Pavilion sits in the Lake Tahoe Basin of Nevada. Minutes from the bright blue water of Tahoe's eastern shores, campsites are nestled in a sparse forest of pine trees and evergreen shrubs. The lake and its sandy beaches provides ample recreation opportunities and restaurants and casinos are just moments away.
Just minutes away from the campground, 22-mile-long Lake Tahoe provides sunbathing, swimming, boating and water skiing. Anglers can look forward to healthy fish populations of kokanee salmon and mackinaw, rainbow and brown trout.
Nearby, the 2.6-mile Lam Wa Tah Trail traverses the perimeter of the lake, providing scenic views and opportunities for exploration.
The campground offers dozens of campsites, available for tent and RV camping. Some sites are in wooded areas and others are not, many of the sites have a view of the lake.
Areas on the loop furthest from the lake provide the most privacy between campsites and all parking aprons are paved.
Each site is equipped with tables, campfire rings and grills. Accessible flush toilets and drinking water are provided.
The Nevada Beach Pavilion is a timber framed covered roof with open air sides. It is available for reservations for groups up to 150 people. It has 10 picnic tables and 3 large BBQ stations. It is located on the beach with beautiful views of Lake Tahoe and the surrounding mountains.
The campground is located on the California-Nevada state line, adjacent to the popular and beautiful Lake Tahoe, at an elevation of 6,100 feet. Tall pines have left a bed of dry needles on the ground and the lake is visible from most sites within the campground.
The nearby Nevada Beach is less than a mile long and is wider than any other beach on the lake. Its subdued atmosphere is a welcomed characteristic, as visitors come to enjoy the peace and quite of the mountain landscape.
Restaurants and casinos can be found in the nearby Nevada city of Stateline.

Lots of neat places to explore, meadows, and rocks to climb....but the dog beach is full of people with mean dogs! I have a sweet lovable pit mix that gets along with every dog and he was getting looks from everyone!! Meanwhile, their mean poodles, and little beast were attacking my dog! My dog ran from them thankfully, but it's just a bunch of judgemental uptight dog snobs there....not a place for us. Beach is also very narrow. Not a lot of running room. Very crowded. Beautiful, but never going back. Stay on the hiking trails. Way less crowded and more fun#
Our favorite campground! You're basically on Lake Tahoe for a fraction of the price of nearby homes. Sites are large and well spaced. We even squeezed in our 30' 5th wheel into a space rated for a 26' trailer one time (didn't realize till after because it appeared in my search when I filtered for our size RV). It's quiet, well maintained, and the staff are friendly.
Among all the campsites during our vanlife over 17 days, this got to be one of the favorites! It’s so serene, peaceful, quiet and the campsites are well spread out. U have killer sunrise/ sunset views too!
Do stay here if U’re considering where to stay in Lake Tahoe area. I’ll be back for sure. Fyi: as with all the popular campgrounds, better to book it six months in advance as the reservations roll out!
