We booked two charters with Lake Tahoe Boat Rides: one with us and the kids and another several…read moredays later with our best friends. The booking process and attention Lyndsay gave with feedback and answering questions was professional and quick. We appreciated the honesty and couldn't have asked for better value in the investment of these memories made! Both charters we were lucky enough to have Captain Heather. When we went out with the kids, she was very patient and kind in helping them learn how to wakeboard. The water was a bit choppy that day, but Captain Heather was gracious enough to find the best possible spots for the kids to have fun! She gave some fun facts as we passed by various locations. When we went out again several days later with our friends, we were happy to have the same level of professionalism and FUN with Captain Heather. She really meshed with our group's vibe and offered us a fun mix of enjoying site-seeing, wakeboarding & tubing, and even a quick stop in at Chamber's Landing! I would absolutely recommend Lake Tahoe Boat Rides and will most definitely book with them again. Thank you to Lyndsay & Heather for being a part of these memories created!!!

Lake Tahoe Boat Rides is where it's at! By far the best private charter company around South Lake…read moreTahoe. After we called around all other businesses, such as this, we realized that Lake Tahoe boat rides was the most professional and upfront about their prices. Many companies didn't let me know that fuel and captain fees would be tacked on at after the ride as well as a certain gratuity. Sneaky! Once we arrived at Lake Tahoe, Boat Rides, Lindsay, the owner and everyone else was super friendly and helpful. They have a store with food/drinks, towels etc.. but they tell you in advance that you can pick it up elsewhere. They helped us carry our bags over to the perfectly clean and well maintained boat complete with our own captain who was incredible!!!!! Ask for Steve-O!!!! I do believe no matter who you get as a captain that you will have an amazing experience as we did. Steve-O was friendly and great with our 4 1/2 year-old. He provided just the right amount of history and information as we rode along and also took us to less touristy places that were also beautiful and so worth seeing. We cannot wait to come back and see Lake Tahoe boat rides next summer, and we will definitely be asking for Steve-O.

In the almost 20 years we have lived in Northern Nevada, and driven by here enroute back and forth…read morebetween Carson City and Reno, this is the first time I have stopped, gotten out and walked around. I spent some time in the picnic area and walking along the shoreline. The park was well maintained with lots of shady spots, cool grass and sandy beaches. The bathrooms were convenient and clean and there was a generous parking area. There are BBQ grills and lots of picnic tables throughout the area. There is also a large group pavilion. There are a number of trails around, but may be better suited for cooler weather as there is not a lot of shade away from the day-use area. There is a ranger station a few miles north that is worth a stop. Staff are friendly and helpful and there is a small exhibit of old mining and farming equipment and a very nice native plant garden. Definitely worth the stop.

I was very much looking forward to playing this course as I never had before. I was invited as a…read moreguest for a charity golf outing here. Having reviewed the layout prior to showing up I was very excited to play. Unfortunately when I got there, the disappointment set in. The fairways look like a three year old is the greenskeeper. Full of weeds, bare spots, dandelions...they are a mess. There are huge portions of fairway and rough around the cart paths that are destroyed. The place looks like its a dump and going downhill fast. There's construction work on one hole that I am told has been going on for 3 years. The carts are junk. This place could be THE BOMB! But, instead IT BOMBED? I'm in no hurry to go back to this place and if I had to pay to play at this place. I would have been livid. HUGE disappointment.

For $65 in greens feed and $70 for club rentals, I got:…read more -No one at the bottom of the steps to help with a cart. Was a first timer at this course, I had no clue where to go. Not a single employee to be seen. Finally flagged someone down who asked where my key was. What key? Apparently after paying the prop was supposed to give me a key and I was supposed to just go pick out a cart. -No starter, so I just rolled up to the first hole and teed off at my tee time. -SLOOOOOOOOW pace. It took me over 5.5 hours to play 14 holes. At hole 12, I got tired of being stuck behind stacks of 3 and 4 somes and skipped past them until hole 15 and was still stuck behind a foursome, but at least they played quickly. The course was in great shape with great mix of forgiving and challenging holes. Seemed like there were a lot of par 3s though and one hole was under repair (10? 11?) so they turned it into kind of a janky par 3. Was just in town for a visit, but think i'll explore other courses instead next time I'm back.
