ElevationPerched at 6,225 feet above sea level on Lake Tahoe's sun-drenched southern shore, the elevation here offers crisp mountain air and stunning alpine vistas.
Natural Features and SceneryTowering pines frame your campsite while the impossibly blue waters of Lake Tahoe shimmer just steps away, creating a scene that seems almost too perfect to be real. At 6,225 feet, you're surrounded by the dramatic peaks of the Sierra Nevada, their granite faces rising majestically above the crystalline lake. The private beach beckons for morning swims and sunset watching, while miles of trails wind through fragrant pine forests, inviting you to explore by foot or bike. This is the Tahoe experience at its finest—where mountain grandeur meets lakeside serenity.
