This park and beach offers a large enough wooded area that kids can frolic freely without concern. Two parking area's along Lake Forest Road and a drop off point at the end of Lake Terrace, but parking can still be limited. It's a nice walk over from the house, just use caution crossing North Lake Blvd. A day camp run by our local Parks and Rec department (summer only) make this the go to spot for kids in visiting the area.

The BEST Tahoe history tour according to a local that has done them all. Breathtaking East shore setting. Paid tours only, so no hiking down to the gated castle on your own. Well worth the money.

The local's grocery. It's a healthfood store with a similar feel to whole foods. Great beer selection and best produce in town. If you stop by midweek the Uncommon Kitchen in back is awesome. Many vegan or other alternative food options.
