Best Big Rig Park in Lake Tahoe Area

Another Zephyr Cove vote :W But we haven't been there for almost 10 years now. Thanks for reminding me to go back.

Moved from Class A forum.

Tahoe Valley is the best for our stays over the last 8 years during the summer. It is a large park, has a number of good level sites with full hookups, including 50 amp. Dirt sites, under mostly treed areas with cable tv (sort of fuzzy) Sat TV can be spotty because of the tree coverage. This can be a busy park during the summer but we found it to the best. Zepher Cove is the second in our list. Small park, situated on hilly terrain with many uneven sites. It can be very crowded as it is at the Zepher Cove Marina and all of its associated walking and vehicle traffic. It is close to highway 50 and is noisier. Looking on Google earth will give you some idea of locations and how central to state line activities.

We stay at Zephyr Cove RV park frequently over the years (our motorhome is pictured on their 40' site description from 2002). It is a short walk through the resort to the beach and wooded trails. We also have enjoyed the onsite restaurant over the past 13 years. You will have peeks at the Lake from most campsites.

Try not to get a site near Hwy 50 near the entrance to the park.

Tahoe Valley is a bigger rv park, but not close to the lake. After June, the park gets dry and dusty in our opinion. But, they fill up all 400 sites on major summer holidays.

These are the only two that meet your stated requirements near Lake Tahoe that we could suggest. There is one more on the West side, but it is small and does not accept pets.

The prices at both parks have risen dramatically recently. Location, Location and a short summer season.

I like Tahoe Valley(on the Calif side)...they have what you want and it's a pretty nice campground with plenty of sites that will allow your size rig. Not cheap but then again in Lake Tahoe, it's hard to find inexpensive! Within a couple of miles to the Lake(maybe less) and less than 4-5 miles to casino's.
