South Lake Tahoe is a majestic playground abundant in natural beauty with plenty of things to do. It offers a range of accommodation options. For those who want to camp in one of the numerous RV parks around the area, here are six profiles of some great RV campgrounds in Tahoe South. There are also plenty of lodges, cabins, motels and other choice accommodations in this remarkable, naturally beautiful locale.
1) Chris Haven Mobile home and RV Community: Located about 3 miles from the southern end of Lake Tahoe on the California side of the lake, Chris Haven offers 96 full-hookup sites and a wide range of amenities. They provide wireless internet, cable TV, showers and restrooms, laundry, paved roads and allow pets in its convenient location. It is very close to shopping, city bus services, all the south lakeshore activities, ski areas and golf courses. It is a mile from the airport and car rentals. The park has recently been completely renovated, is open all year, offering daily, weekly, monthly and full winter rates.
2) Campground By The Lake: This is a super-convenient park run by the City of South Lake Tahoe and, located just across the road from the Lake. Open from April through October, this campground has seven pull-through sites, plus 14 sites with water and electricity as well as plenty of camping at standard sites and about 30 with electricity but no water. Campers here love the tall pines towering over the campground and waking to the smell of them enhanced their camping experience. The only complaint about this park is that it is very close to US 50 (Lake Tahoe Boulevard), so there is some road noise. Otherwise, it is a very nice wooded campground, conveniently located right across from the Lake. The price is very reasonable here too. They allow dogs on leashes.
4) Camp Richardson Historic Resort & Marina: Camp Richardson is located just off Highway 89, Emerald Bay Road, and offers three distinct campground opportunities: the RV Village, directly across from the Hotel; Badger's Den Campground, located a short walk from the shore of Lake Tahoe; and Eagle's Nest, across the road from Badger's Den Campground. This is a spectacular lakeside resort with a long history.
Caples Lake - Famous for excellent fishing and a trailhead for hiking up the emigrant trail over West Pass. Woods Lake - A quiet, beautiful lake tucked up against the high peaks. Blue Lakes - Fishing and boating, not to mention hiking and horseback riding. Grover Hot Spring State Park - Soak in the mineral hot pool or swim in the larger pool. At Lake Tulloch RV Campground and Marina you can enjoy your choice of 110 sites on over ten acres including shoreline. These include lakefront hookups with space to keep your boat right at your site, lakefront cabins with your own dock and full hookup sites with 50 amp service, water and sewer. With spring and summer coming up, these lakefront campgrounds provide the perfect place to go camping by the water. As the weather gets warmer, camping by the lake sounds more and more inviting. The views are relaxing and you've got easy access to activities like swimming, kayaking, fishing, and boating. In brief: The lago di tutti laghi, Lake Tahoe remains the emblematic lakeside destination of northern California/the world. You can spend more money if you want — the Ritz Carlton is just up the hill, offering easy access to the slopes at Northstar — but a handful of lakeside lodges are right on the water, and have reasonable prices. Be sure to book a room on the water side of the highway at the Franciscan Lakeside Lodge, which offers guests a private beach on the northern end of the.

One camper described the setting as full of 'lots of nature all around.' He continued, 'The setting with the butterscotch/vanilla scent of the Jeffrey Pines was wonderful every morning. The boulders to play on are great for the kids. Complimentary fire pits made roasting marshmallows and hot dogs simple and fun.
