What can I say? We're reviewing an invisible line. Unlike the Four Corners Monument that is the only point in the United States where the borders of four states--Arizona, Colorado, New Mexico, and Utah--meet, making it a unique geographical and cultural landmark, we have nothing. I think they should draw a line down the street at least on Stateline Avenue (even though the state line doesn't follow the street) and Highway 50. They can paint a line on the street as far as they can so we can have the novelty of standing in two states. The best we can determine is the true line is the casino's property lines Caesars Republic of Lake Tahoe and Harrah's Lake Tahoe. But if would be so much more fun if there was a line in the street so we can hop back and forth and make a fun video leaving the state, coming back, and doing a little gig on the state line. Out of all of South Lake Tahoe and Reno my husband loves the businesses and vibe of the State Line Area. We were there this past weekend (2nd week of March 2026) and he picked the hotel, and of course it was in the State Line area. We stayed at the Quality Inn a few steps from actual state line. Then we hung out at South of North that is a step or two from the actual state line. You can look out of their patio and see Caesars Republic of Lake Tahoe. On our last visit to Tahoe we went to Caesars to watch the 49ers game and Raiders game. We sat in there sports betting area in their viewing room. We got hungry so I walked out the back door of the casino which is located in Nevada, walked across the state line, went to South of North which is in California. And walked back all in 15 minutes. It would have taken less time if I had called in my order. To be fair we went back and forth between states a lot of times during that trip. On that trip we stayed in Nevada at Bally's, frequented all of the Casinos to watch all of the football games that weekend, and there were a lot. After and between the games we spent a lot of our free time in California. I really enjoyed going to California and playing golf at Tipsy Putt and enjoying the restaurants in Heavenly Village. Nevada needs to create their own version of Heavenly villages and all the shops in the area, so we'll spend equal time there as a family and not just go to Neveda to gamble. They did build Tahoe Blue Events Center so there is one type of entertainment that isn't gambling in Nevada, but they have so much room they can create other forms of entertainment, restaurants, and shopping opportunities. read more

A buzz of South Lake Tahoe and state line Nevada. Home to an assortment of casinos. Much more lowkey than Vegas or even Reno. So nice to have California on the other side. A good flow of top notch entertainment as well. read more

The CA NV border slices through the middle of Lake Tahoe. At the highway 50 portion there is an eye sore foundation unfinished project there now for years - and I'd like to see at kitchy CA lottery store take its place. The boarder slices right through the middle of the lake. I'm sure when that line was being drawn both states were in fierce negotiations to get as much as possible. Probably would have been a cleaner line if it were to have been done differently. At the highway 50 stateline portion there is this unfinished project that has been there for years. I'm thinking it was probably one of those projects started in 2007 and then was given up on. There are many dozen concrete foundation piers that have been exposed to the elements and likely are no longer useful for anything. I'm sure there is some politics with this shut down construction project. Lake Tahoe is known for having strict building and open space requirements - or maybe Harrahs didn't want anything that would block the view and hurt the value of their luxury above tree line rooms. This construction was remedied a bit by some some small shops built along highway 50 along the most visible portion. I think more could have been done. For one thing I don't believe that a CA state lottery store would hurt. Lets add that. That really helps out CA schools that need funding. We must think of the children! Buy a ticket and hope you don't win... most big winners are hit with countless frivolous lawsuits by the opportunistic - I once even read a story that a winners church sued for their 10%. read more

Great line, let us pass with ease. We drove up to the line unsure of whether we'd see large dashes on the ground denoting the border. Alas there were none, but I still give it 5 stars. Why are people rating an intangible line poorly? read more

California and Nevada share a border. It has a notable border at Lake Tahoe near a few casinos and hotels. This is between the cities of South Lake Tahoe and Stateline. Good place to come walk around. You can also go shopping if you aren't eating and gambling. It has a few things to do around. Most notably are the casinos. They come up to the California border, as far as it allows gambling. In California there aren't these kinds of casinos. They only have them on Native American reservations. In Nevada they can have these anywhere. This make a lot of people cross the border so they can gamble. Go on US 50 to cross. The road can get bad traffic. Harrah's is on the south side of the road. There's also a shopping center and movie theater. Harvey's is on the north side of the road. The area often gets too busy to go through. Avoid this area and take another way that's not as busy. There's a few other ways you can go. Basically there's just a sign saying it's the state line, and you can barely see it, so it's not much to look at. In South Lake Tahoe there's nice beaches. The Stateline side is more fun for gambling and fast times. read more

Hmm, unusual to review an invisible line, but, why not. The change from California to Nevada is marked primarily by the casinos that line both sides of Highway 50. Note that the traffic can understandably get backed up here as there are people and cars going into, and out of, the casinos, so be patient and be careful. read more

Vroom vroom! Let the wind take and embrace me, I forever feel your arms around me. Embrace me and hold me. My first solo trip I have longed to make this journey and explore more on the bike without you. Sometimes we fear, perhaps it's not? We maybe long for times that used to be our "norm" what used to be our normal. Knowing that my old normal can never be given back, the call of the road cannot be denied any longer. I find comfort in riding still and was not sure if I would ever take the motorcycle out of Vegas solo. Here I am at Stateline. It's not fear that holds me back, I enjoy the silence and quiet that I feel when riding. I can get lost in my thoughts. I am carried on the wings of the wind with life as streaks of light as you pass through them. For decades I rode with my husband and the times we shared riding were some of my fondness mementos that are still incredibly painful. The joy of riding is a fantastic piece of pleasure that I will still forever share with my beloved, since he is part of the wind now. As I ride I feel his crisp and warm embrace me all to the depths of my very soul. Winding twists then a straight away, up over a hill these are the riding conditions here in Nevada. Who does not love when a road snakes left then far right? The ride from Vegas to Stateline is a beautiful ride although it's through "true" desert terrain the ride is uplifting. There are many back roads where one can open the bike up here and get their groove on. That fine balance that we have with our bikes can be challenged here. Those that ride get this. In a town, Primm, that was established as gas station, corner snacks, bar and casino in the 1930s it did not fare as well. Today this place thrives. But the owner of this menagerie of stores went back to moonshine making to feed his family. In the hills where he made moonshine Is where he was laid to rest after his grave was disturbed by developers building the casinos. This being the old west type attitude riders of all sorts are drawn here. The presence of the creator of Primm looks over the riders, tourists, and all that pass through make their passage through simply what is best known as state line. Finding that exciting spark in your life can really make this journey of "life" much more enjoyable. Sure we all have to work, but riding is my release and for us that know this love, this is for you. Get out and feed some speed to your ride, baby! Experience that feeling again, their is none other in the word. Sex cannot top riding either. What are you waiting for the longing of the road and be a union with the bike is calling. Next time your at Stateline know that in the piles of dirt so many dreams have been fulfilled even though maybe not successful the attempt as been made. Failure is not the loss of something it is the negative downfall of those afraid to take a leap. Know that whatever you want to dream will come true. Feel it in your soul. Your incredible and deserve what ever makes you happy. Go out and ignite your passion. Seek your pleasure and make it yours. Your worth it, ever bit of it. If you ride then go find some black sunshine and your welcome. Riding is a passion that lights my soul. Like I said, "Its unlike any other feeling in the world. Your a bird, freedom and light pass you so fast!" Go get some of your dreams today baby! read more

California / Nevada State Line - Follow your dreams without FEAR! - Landmarks & Historical Buildings Near Me - Stateline, Nevada

This was pretty cool. There was a funny sign that was pointing the wrong direction. It was overhyped though.

Great place to relax with family. Centralized location to most the activities in town.

Wow, I just came across this review listing for the CA/NV State Line, but really it's not a review of the border between CA and Nevada, it's for the city of Stateline, NV. On the CA side (the side with no casinos) it's South Lake Tahoe. People get this messed up all the time. If you want gambling, Stateline NV is what you want. If you want cheap older motels and t-shirt shops, South Lake Tahoe on the CA side is what you want. I've been coming up here to Lake Tahoe for years. If you want a more crowded party experience, the south end of the lake is for you. Stateline has Highway 50 running right thru it. It's a jammed packed traffic jam on holiday summer weekends and even weekdays at prime time. Take the loop road across from Kingsbury Grade to get around most of the traffic. The loop road behind the casinos will end you up in a seedy residential neighborhood of South Lake Tahoe, where the locals know how to wind their way thru. A big road construction project wants to close off HIghway 50 thru the casino area and re route traffic along a new widened loop road, but this has caused a lot of controversy with the locals. I you really want to go to the casinos, use the loop road in back of Hard Rock or the other loop behind Mount Bleu and Harrah's to get to parking. I really try to avoid Stateline in the summer weekends, I'd rather go to the north end of Incline Village and Tahoe City. OK, that's Stateline, NV for ya! read more

Stateline is always a great place for a relaxing weekend getaway. Both winter and summer are popular seasons for vacation/visiting. Sightseeing in the surrounding area and lake are always fun things to do. Whether skiing, swimming, hiking, or exploring, you always find something to do. Oh, and don't forget the casinos and all the great food. read more
