We're discussing a potential trip to Lake Tahoe during the last week of August or first week of September (me + wife + 3 year old). Has anyone been during non-ski season? Tell me about it. [Reply]

That's probably best unless you want to just spend all day walking in a sea of people. Now I've only been to Tahoe like 3-4 or times but every time I've gone to the South side....it was fucking packed. It's still nice....just way to busy for me. [Reply]
yeah, I go there quite a bit....My wife was born up there. Personally I like South Lake Tahoe area the best.... because you can go to the casinos in south lake which are fun..and also some good dining options......and also ride the gondola up to the top of Heavenly. Theres a zip-line type outdoor adventure area up at the top for the kids.
You really cannot go wrong, but I just prefer south lake [Reply]
as far as crowds go, if you avoid driving on fridays and sundays its really not an issue...for the most part
most of the traffic is going into tahoe on friday and leaving tahoe on sunday...
and weekends are a little crowded so if you want to avoid crowds , my advice is to arrive on sunday and leave on thurs or fri so youre doing the opposite of the crowds..and maybe try to pick something on saturday that doesnt involve going to south lake / casinos
hit the hot spots mid week and youll be fine [Reply]
I went for my bachelor party. It's at elevation, so party and hydrate accordingly. But the views are spectacular and the terrain is so interesting.
There are casinos on the Nevada side, but they weren't really nice when I was there 10 years ago. Maybe they've improved. Also, you can pop over to California and get yourself some legal weed :-) [Reply]

That's pretty much exactly what we're planning to do. We have all week off, so Saturday will probably be our travel day in to get oriented and so forth and we'll have all week to do activities and we'll be out on Friday or Saturday. Posted via Mobile Device [Reply]

I cant find a picture of the block room, but it is probably one of the best interactive kids museums I have seen, and perfect for a 3 yr old... [Reply]
