We are so excited to share some of our favorite places in North Lake Tahoe!
Trail Link App
We highly recommend downloading the TrailLink app or using the RailstoTrails.org website to find nearby hiking paths and bike trails. It makes deciding where to go, how long a ride, walk, or hike will take much easier!
Sand Harbor Beach
2005 NV-28, Incline Village, NV
Beautiful beach with mountain views and walking paths
Emerald Bay
138 Emerald Bay Rd, Emerald Bay, CA 96150
Great drive to take going from North Tahoe to South Tahoe or just to drive to and stop to see! On a sunny day it looks like a fake backdrop.
Truckee River
2285 River Rd, Tahoe City, CA 96146
The Truckee is a beautiful river that flows from the Lake in Tahoe City and down the mountain to Truckee. We have floated the river multiple times and it also has a wonderful biking/running trail that stops at River Ranch Lodge!
Rosie's Cafe
571 N Lake Blvd, Tahoe City, CA 96145
Rosie's is a fantastic place for Bruch/Lunch! You can sit outside on the porch and look out at the lake or go inside to a building that feels like an antique ski shop!
Olympic Bike Shop
620 North Lake Boulevard, Tahoe City, CA 96145, (530) 581-2500
The best place to rent bikes to ride along the Truckee!
Jake's On The Lake
780 North Lake Boulevard, Tahoe City, CA 96145, (530) 583-0188
Jake's is the first dinner we went to on our first trip to Lake Tahoe! It sits right on the water and gives unbelievable views of the sunset and moonrise!
Tahoe City Golf Course
251 N Lake Blvd, Tahoe City, CA 96145
This may not be the top course in the area but it is definitely the most fun! Great views, great drinks and a great time!
Christy Hill
115 Grove Street, Tahoe City, CA 96145, (530) 583-8551
Right next to Jake's-on-the-Lake but a very relaxed feel. Sit out back on the "sand" patio if you can get a table with a space heater!!
Za's Lakefront
120 Grove Street, Tahoe City, CA 96145
Low key Lunch or Dinner spot on the water
Sunnyside Restaurant & Lodge
1850 West Lake Boulevard, Tahoe City, CA 96145, (530) 583-7200
Great patio!
West Shore Cafe and Inn
5160 West Lake Boulevard, Homewood, CA 96141, (530) 525-5200
Pete 'n Peters
