This is easily one of the most popular waterfalls in South Tahoe on the California side, and it…read morecompletely lives up to the hype! Just a heads-up on the trail getting there: it is definitely a tough, rugged hike. The path is full of rocks and kept completely natural, so you really have to watch your footing. Honestly, coming back down was just as much of a workout and challenge as hiking up. But once you reach the destination, the sheer beauty of the falls makes every single step worth it. It's actually made up of several different falls cascading down the mountainside right into Cascade Lake below. Getting close to that cold, refreshing mountain water felt incredible after the trek. The drive from our hotel in South Lake Tahoe was only about half an hour, making it the perfect, easy half-day adventure. If you're up for a bit of a rocky scramble, don't miss this one!

Hike was about 2 hours total-- one hour there, one hour back…read more It was such a fun hike! Maybe not so much for my mom because she was lowkey struggling since it started to become a rocky trail, the closer you get to the waterfall. It's not a smooth, walk-in-the-park trail, since it's rocky, so just be prepared! I've seen lots of people use hiking sticks or trekking poles-- they were definitely prepared. The view at the end is definitely worth it!

I am very disappointed with the new $80million dollar Rec Center. It is not very well though out as…read morethe weight room is very small, the pool is nice but only 6 lanes, not adequate for swim meets and the lighting is too bright, The cost of admission has tripled $8 to $10 compared to the old pool, with no local or senior rate. The locker rooms are nice to look at but not functional, there is one small one person bench some lockers and no hooks at the 3 showers for towels or to hang your close on, so you will probably be putting them in the floor, I can't imagine how more than 3-4 people will take showers and dress at a time let alone a large group. The lobby is way too big if you just want to sit around, but that's not what we are there for. I will probably drive down to The Carson Valley Swim Center most of the time.

Truly a mesmerizing spectacular dinner cruise…read more We came on a girls trip (mother / daughter / aunt and cousin) and my mother surprised us with tickets. I liked my chicken with the chimichurri sauce, and the mushroom ragout was good. My cousin said the steak was too fatty. Each plate had the broccolini but it was not cooked properly. Very chewy and just ended up eating the florets. The salad only had the balsamic vinegar dressing offered and it was quite a bit that was drizzled on, perhaps may want to ask to put on the side. One dessert of cheesecake with strawberry drizzle was offered. Typically I'm not a cheesecake fan, but I thought it was pretty good. Staff were wonderful, shout out to Ozzie! They have everyone eat when board, and the 2nd & 3rd floor was blocked off but open about an hour later after most finished dinner. That way the staff was able to clean up the 1st floor while most were on the other decks. Initially the Zephyr cove was cloudy, but halfway through, the sky opened up. A brief history explanation comes thru the speakers on emerald bay once enter the bay. You don't see the water colors till get quite close, and the best view is on the top deck. It's stunning. After leaving the bay, a 2 person band came on and played some great songs that many sweet couples got up to dance to. Coupled with the spectacular sunset, this dinner cruise was an unforgettable experience and I want to come back with my husband.

I got absolutely none of it. At boarding, the dock was chaotic with zero organization -- they were prioritizing a large corporate group while the rest of us were left confused and waiting. We were sent upstairs where there was no seating, forcing us to stand in the cold for nearly two hours while spending $100 out of pocket on drinks to hold us over for the dinner that was almost 2 hours late! Then we were literally packed into a cramped stairwell for 30 minutes -- a fire hazard their own service manager admitted to -- while the corporate group enjoyed the upper deck. When we were finally seated, I had to remind the manager I'd paid for window seats because she tried to put us in the middle of the room. By then it was pitch dark outside. Zero views. Zero complimentary drink. Ever. The food was a disaster. My medium rare steak came out overcooked and tough, the salmon was cold, and we were rushed off the boat before we even finished dessert. To make it worse -- I've called multiple times and been put on hold and hung up on repeatedly. I've sent emails with zero response. A manager on the boat promised a refund and never followed through. The customer service is as bad as the experience itself. Save your money and your special occasions for somewhere that actually values its guests.

So good to be back in the old neighborhood with our good friends back in the area also. We plan to come back here more and more frequently, off season of course. :) This was our 5 star area when my daughter was a kid. Before it got TOO touristy. We spent our winters here for like 10+ years and then moved to Incline (less touristy) for 10+ years, and we are now enjoying South Reno and hopefully for the next 10+ years...? LOL. Wait, how old am I? Quality/Quantity - So many restaurant changes... Which is good and bad. Casino brands continue to change (Bally), Caesar Republic, Golden Nugget, etc. And more importantly, I see more and more craft breweries pop up; thank you, lol. Heavenly was our ski resort back in the day. Yes, I still have my Epic pass. And this location is still close enough to go to Kirkwood. It is getting harder and harder for me to visit these resorts, as Mt Rose is currently my favorite local mountain. Summer, which I do NOT come often enough, is bike friendly. Approximately 16.5 square miles. 21k+ population. Today we just stayed at the house because our friends just wanted to cook and relax. She is an excellent cook. Best things to do in Lake Tahoe are: Skiing, snow mobiling, the lake, water sports, hiking, beaches, horseback riding, food and brewery scene continue to improve, etc. Atmosphere - The city is a huge tourist attraction, so we try to ONLY come during off peak seasons. We typically do not come on a day like today, but it was too hot for our friends to come to Reno. There are more and more nicer restaurants popping up, thank you. But they are typically too small and the waits are too long, hence the off season visits. Service - Tourist attraction, so the service reflects that. Price - Slightly above average, but that is the price for tourists. Owner Comments - Congrats on your success since 1965 incorporation. 1944 - First gaming, Harvey's Wagon Wheel Saloon and Gaming. 1960 - Winter Olympics. 2021 - Caldor Fire forced the entire city to evacuate.

Looked to Yelp to help me find a tour that worked for us and happy to find Tahoe Lake Tours! Booking online was easy enough. Looking on Wednesday for a Friday morning time slot and there it was: 9:30-1:30 was perfect. The web site states exactly what will happen during the 4 hours and offers a phone number to call for questions. Parking and check in were easy and Captain Dan was ready for us. The boat was clean and well stocked with life jackets that fit for both adults and children (ages 8,6,4) as well as water bottles. Before leaving the dock we were offered water for a cooler which we didn't need but the offer was appreciated. Our 4 hours: 1. Safety information 2. Review of our preferences for the tour 3. Lots of history of the area as we toured 4. Emerald Bay & Mrs. Knights castle 5. Water tubing (first time for the grandkids) 6. Hang out time for a snack (we brought lots LOL) 7. Back to the marina Dan was very knowledgeable and great with the kids. We would definitely book with Tahoe Lake Tours again and request Captain Dan. Thank you for a great ending to our week in Tahoe!

Captain Troy was accommodating, kind, hospitable, professional and knowledgeable. He took us to breathtaking sites including Emerald Bay, Fannette Island, Vikingsholm, and Rubicon Bay. We enjoyed swimming in the crystal water and never felt rushed. He provided swim floaties, a cooler with cold beverages, and let us take our time to have so much fun. He even called in advance to accommodate a better start time to ensure we had the best weather. We could not have asked for a more perfect day. Booking was easy and he answered all my questions beforehand. We highly recommend this company.

My kids chose the 2-hour Class C - 20 feet open Bow Speed Boat ($478). I thought we would have a driver with us to take us out but no.... They showed my kids how the boat operates, took us out to the open water, and let us loose! There was eight of us on board. It was beautiful out on the water, with the rocking waves, and beautiful scenery and sky. But not when you have my kids driving it like a race car on water. We were rocking like crazy and we all got wet. Especially my grandchildren sitting at the front, who were drenched! I told my kids to slow down, but they say, "he said we could floor it." OMG!! The kids had to put on life jackets and the adults were told there are emergency life jackets on board. Well, with my kids enjoying what the boat can do, I threw on my life jacket! I admit, my kids are very responsible drivers on land. They had so much fun driving the boat in the wide open lake. As scared as I was of possibly being overtaken by waves or capsizing, it was an amazing experience, and it felt so good out there. Absolutely beautiful!! I really enjoyed it, and the staff were great. They know exactly what they're doing. The water started to get kind of choppy, so we ventured back towards the shore after an hour, called them on the radio, and staff came out on a dingy to help dock the boat so that we can safely get out. I am so glad I went on this excursion. If you love the water and drifting up and down with the waves, this is a must try!

It included a shuttle ride to Ski Run Blvd Marina where we boarded the Safari Rose. The captain and crew were amazing! They served light hors d'oeuvres, they had a bar on board as well.

The only hiccup was the delivery of the mobile tickets and there was not a lot of information about how to obtain them. I tried calling all the numbers that were listed through Golden Nugget but no one returned my call. Once this gets ironed out, it would definitely be a 5-star experience.
