Keep your towing weight under 7000 pounds and your length under about 22-23 feet. The short wheel base of the Tahoe can create a squirrely situation with much longer trailers or heavier loads.
Having towed at least 50K miles with a 26' travel trailer behind two different Tahoes, I can say your advice is too conservative. With a proper hitch (Dual-Cam or Equal-I-Zer)and a properly set up Tahoe, (IMHO LT tires and rear air bags are a must), there is no reason to limit the TT length to 23'. In my case the trailer was 4600lbs UVW and in all those years of dragging it, I had zero issues with handling.
To the OP, you will love towing a reasonable sized trailer with a Tahoe. I have been towing since the 90s, with about everything imaginable and by far, the Tahoes are my favorite.
