Best Big Rig Park in Lake Tahoe Area

What are your thoughts for good Tahoe sites during the winter? Have a new class C 32 foot we would like to take out to visit the snow for a few nights. Kids would like sledding or snowshoeing close by the campground. Coming from Rocklin/Roseville area. Thoughts on the TT Snowflower park?

We like Tahoe Valley also just far enough off the highway for a little quiet, unless you are backed up to the hospital!

Our home base is Reno and whenever we go up to the Lake now we stay at Tahoe Valley.

Tried some of the others mentioned.

One other interesting thing about Tahoe Valley. If you look closely at my picture above, you'll see a split rail fence directly behind the coach. They have a small pen built there that looks like it was designed for those mini horses. I asked about that while we were there and it is indeed a pen, but not for horses. It was designed and built for satellite dishes! They cleared the vegetation above the pen so everyone with adjacent sites could place their sat dishes there without getting them damaged and have a clear line of sight to the sat itself. I thought that was ingenious on their part.....Dennis

Tahoe Valley is a nice park. BUT beware of low voltage in the park. When we were there out electoral protection unit shut the electric off to our RV because of low voltage. When I went to the office and talked to the manager about it he was very mater of fact and stated that whenever it is hot and the park is full they always have low voltage. He stated that the parks electrical system was old and designed for one AC per site but with the RV's now having up to three AC's the park could not handle it. He did allow us to run our generator till it cooled off and the voltage went back up.

Tahoe Valley Mid October.....Dennis



Zephyr Cove is my second choice. Camp Richardson won't cut it, nor will Fallen Leaf. The City owns Campground by the Lake but it's $40/night with no sewers....Dennis

Tahoe Valley (Encore)

Zephyr

Note that all of these do have trees in them but you can fit your big rig in any of them... we have.

Thanks for the help guys !

We enjoyed Zephyr Cove RV Park stay recently. We were not able to get our 36' Class A into the site they gave us (and I am a retired CDL driver), we did find one that our rig would fit into and they modified our reservation. There were numerous other big rigs there in other sites, you should have no problem. JH

Tahoe Valley... If you need rooftop satellite, park at the North end of the Park against the wooden fence.
Be sure to stop at the sandwich shop across the street. One of the best roast beef sandwiches we have ever had.
