A welcome change from the scorching temperatures of California's central valley and San Francisco's oppressing fog, Lake Tahoe offers a tempting alternative. Idyllic daytime temperatures and cool nights make Lake Tahoe the perfect summer weekend retreat. Make use of the resources below to plan your Lake Tahoe vacation.

Is Lake Tahoe for you? 

People from all walks of life love spending time in Lake Tahoe. Whether your idea of a good time is roughing it in the great outdoors or simply lying on the beach with your favorite drink in hand, Lake Tahoe offers something for everyone.

What Time is the Right Time? 

Lake Tahoe is beautiful all summer long, but be wary of crowds during busy holiday weekends.

A Must See:

The Gondola at Heavenly is a trip you can't miss. This trip up the mountain offers a picturesque view of the landscape below. The bird's eye view at 9,123 feet is simply breathtaking. 

Lake Tahoe's Summer Top 5:

• Truckee rafting adventure. You'll catch a little sun and a lot of water rafting down the Truckee River. It's a great way to make a splash on a summer afternoon.
• Cruise the lake. What better way to see the lake than to zip around the center on a Boat Cruise.
• Release your inner viking at Vikingsholm. This former summer residence of heiress Lora Knight sits on the Emerald Bay and offers Scandinavian-styled architecture.
• Time your vacation right and you can catch a glimpse of the western United States' largest fireworks display, Lights on the Lake, brought to you every year, on July 4th, at South Lake Tahoe.
• Listen to music and lay under the stars at the Tahoe Summer Music Festival. They play a variety of musical styles from classical to pop and from Broadway to bluegrass. 

Lake Tahoe Tips & Tricks:

• The Sun is hot. Make sure to use plenty of sunscreen when out enjoying the summer weather.
• The moon is cool. The lake looks beautiful when bathed in moonlight. Try to plan your vacation during the full moon.
• Casinos are fun, but Lake Tahoe has much more to offer than games of chance. Lose your shirt at the beach, not at the casino. 
• Summers are popular. If you like to shy away from the crowd, plan your Lake Tahoe vacation away from holidays.
