My wife and I will be traveling from Las Vegas north to Seattle in April and May. she has Family in Sacremento and we both want to go to Lake Tahoe. What is a good route to take? I was thinking about ...

The most direct route from Las Vegas to Reno (very close to Lake Tahoe) is 95. 395 is more scenic. 95 is very remote, and not much to see. And from 95 you can get over to Carson City easily.
From Carson City, the best road into Lake Tahoe is Hwy 50. Once you get to the intersection of Hwy 28, go north on 28 for north shore Lake Tahoe, and stay on 50 to go to south shore Lake Tahoe.
50 goes to Sacramento out of south shore. OK for an RV. I-80 is very close to north shore and goes to Sacramento.
There are private RV parks in south shore. Not sure of any private RV parks in north shore. There are several forest service campgrounds around the lake.
