If you bring a kayak or paddle board you can paddle just south towards Meeks Bay and tuck yourself into a number of smallish beaches if you want some privacy. When we have a weak winter and the lake level drops , you will have a very small 6-8 foot deep sandy beach area but we haven't had that for quite a few years. So the only thing you don't really get here is a big sandy beach but you do get a fantastic stretch of beautiful lake tahoe in a park like atmosphere with towering trees !!! Not too shabby!

Come to think about it, probably was overly cautious having bear spray within reach. Visitors must comply to safety rules and prevention. Supposedly fragrant items (e.g. soap, shampoo, etc.) are highly attractive to bears. Our assigned site (number 76) sits at the beginning of the loop. Surrounded by neighbors on all sides except one. Nearest restroom and dumpster is just two sites away. Potable water is accessible in front of site 78. Bear storage are included at each site along with a picnic table and a fire ring. Camp host will make frequent runs around the loop with firewood available for purchase. There is a presence of carpenter ants but was not a nuisance. Experienced hot mid days and warm nights in the month of early August. Ideal and convenient for those looking to visit various parts of Lake Tahoe and even neighboring city of Reno.

If this place is closed you can still conduct your own self-tour of the outside grounds. At the bottom of the hill on the backyard of the Estate there is a great view of Lake Tahoe.

We came here when it was 40 degrees outside but it still was beautiful here with a small hike that goes along the lake where you can take scenic pictures of the lake in the background. There are public bathrooms that are clean. Enjoy!

However, the beach itself is tiny and all rocks on the beach. I like the beach with sand more than just rocks! The water is like ice water cold as all the beaches in the Lake Tahoe area. Not bad if you're in the area and just found a place set down and relax. It is convincing and comfortable. The beach is very close to the William Kent Campground. It just crosses the street from the campground entrance. The parking lot just right next to the street and I have no problem finding a parking space both times when I am there. the restrooms are very close to the parking lot too.

Bring beach chairs if you want to relax!

It is real camping because you can't park near your site, so no RVs or generators. Unfortunately, the sound of the road is constant. The views are amazing. 4 stars because there is only one sink and no shower.

I loved it, but it's not for everyone. What I loved:…read more No RV's Very few campsites Campsites were spread out Site was 100% cleaned up from the last campers Running water near our site Bathrooms (one flushing with sink) Close to bike trail/lake/grocery store We went during the week in mid-summer - there was only 1 other camper there both nights (although several sites said they were reserved) What I did not care for (but it was still ok): You have to walk up stairs and a hill if you reserve sites 4-9. Traffic noise - mostly during the day - it dies down and night and did not disturb my sleep at all. Bathrooms are far - especially for middle of the night trips to the bathroom! You should know: The website map has the sites marked in the wrong locations - so I reserved a site that I would not have preferred. The lower sites are 1-3, they have views of the lake, close to bathrooms, but the most traffic noise. Sites 4 & 5 have decent views of the lake - they require walking up stairs and will still have more traffic noise. Site 7 has views of the lake through trees - close to the top of the stairs. Sites 6, 8 & 9 don't really have lake views - they are farthest from the road with the least traffic noise, but also have the furthest to haul your gear from your car.

I also love the Tahoe City Downtown Shops and Restaurants. I've had different experiences at this Campground, mostly great, so I'll keep coming again and again. It is located within a neighborhood, so some spaces are right next to people's backyards. However, the Campground has plenty of Pine trees and many of the homes are obstructed and can't really be seen from the sites. William Kent Campground Beach is also directly across the highway, perfect for watching the Sunrise or Sunset and there's a Market nearby to get coffee and other goodies.

July 13 - 18, 2025 - Tahoma…read more Very nice campground. Some sites better than others; check the site map online before you book. Trailers are limited to 26 feet, and campers or motorhomes can be up to 32 feet. This campground is frequently visited by bears! Keep food and ice chests locked away at all times. Bear lockers are provided; use them, and keep them closed up tight. If you don't properly store your food and ice chests, you will most likely be visited by a ranger who may cite you, or a bear who will eat all your food. The bathrooms are small, just a few stalls, and you need to bring your own soap and paper towels. I didn't visit the showers so I can't comment on them. What I loved most was the access to a couple of forest trails (fire roads) right from the campground. They're dog-friendly as long as your pup is leashed, making them a perfect way to enjoy the fresh air and explore the surrounding woods. There's a trail to the beach, but dogs are only allowed partway; they're not permitted on beaches or dirt trails.

A beautiful place to camp in Tahoma…read more Both times I camped at Sugar Pine Point Campground were great. There are some differences between the individual campsites, so prior to reserving a spot, check with your group and decide what your priorities are. You can choose individual sites or make it a party and book in the group camping loop. Each site features a water spigot, picnic table, bear locker, fire pit with grill, and concrete parking slab. You also have access to park rangers and camp hosts that sell fire wood bundles for $10 in cash. The bathrooms are well maintained. The bathrooms near the campsites I stayed at (157 and 107) both were separated by gender and had two flush toilet stalls and two sinks. There are also a few outlets in each bathroom. There are separate buildings with showers that charge by the minute. They're a bit pricey (if I recall correctly it's $1 for 3 minutes). Be sure to bring your own hand soap as the bathrooms don't furnish any. This campground is located at a convenient 1/4 mile walk from the west side of Lake Tahoe. There are a bunch of scenic trails that take you directly to the lakefront where you can walk, run, or bike. Just be careful, it can be a little bumpy or full of sugar pine cones. The campground also offers a ton of free activities! You can get a free kayak and history lesson, a free day of cross-country skiing, group hike, or meditate under the trees. Sugar Pine Point is the perfect blend of civilized and remote. You're deeply entrenched in nature while having all the necessary modern facilities. This is a must stay but watch for bears!
