Welcome to the Lake Tahoe KOA!

Just four miles from the stunning south shore of Lake Tahoe, nestled among towering pines and alongside Echo Creek, our campground provides the perfect setting for a relaxing getaway with a wealth of activities in the area.

Enjoy the crystal-clear waters of Lake Tahoe by swimming, paddle boarding, or simply cruising on the lake. Venture nine miles to the Nevada side for exciting casino action, or explore a range of outdoor adventures including hot-air ballooning, horseback riding, hiking, biking, and golfing. For thrill-seekers, there's kayaking, jet skiing, and parasailing, while fishing enthusiasts can cast their lines in the Truckee River or other nearby lakes.

Some of our shaded RV and tent sites offer full hookups, some others are partial hookups, while our deluxe accommodations include a charming Lodge, an exquisite Air-stream and our distinctive Chalet built in the 1940's.

We look forward to welcoming you this summer for an unforgettable experience.  Remember, we're open all year round! While a few RV sites will be available in the winter, all of our accommodations will be ready to make your stay cozy and enjoyable throughout the colder months.

Saxon Creek – THE Tahoe MTB Trail

  • Distance: Varies (9 miles downhill)
  • Elevation Descent: 2,300 feet

Test your limits, but ride with caution—there's no shame in walking the “crazy stuff.” After all, it's better to survive the ride and hit the trails again tomorrow than to end up injured and stuck indoors. Are you ready to take on the challenge?
