If you are in the area, and are up for a beautiful view, check this place out. Being from Texas, the scenic appeal of Zephyr Cove is surreal. Turquoise waters with tall pines(I think) all along the cove in both directions. Minimal fee for parking, volleyball nets, and a beach bar. We spent the better part of the afternoon at the cove for a post wedding rehearsal get-together. I would go back again in a heartbeat. We went mid-week, and I heard that this place get get a little rowdy on the weekends, especially during college break periods. Take a day off work and relax.

We were very pleased overall. Being so close to a fun beach was awesome. We had very few crowds but everything was operating and open. No drunks, no massive parties, no drama. The RV park is pricey — and state parks are cheaper and nearer the beach! Since we play tennis, we were delighted to see the tennis courts just .5 mile away. The Blue Wave yacht cruise was fantastic and well worth $ 50 each. The highway noise is loud. Park is well run and conveniences are many. No complaints, but it’s not flawless.

Its a small park with some swings and slides for the little one. Given that its right next to the beach, maybe its better to go to beach than here :). However, I had kids who wanted to play on slides etc. Hence, it was perfect for them.

Really nice place, great for small kids and groups, and really close to the beach! I have a toddler that had a blast on the slides.

I came out to South Lake Tahoe a few weeks back for a friend’s bachelorette party and we decided to spend a day on the beach. It was a summer weekend that happen to fall on Hot August Nights, so the beach was packed. We had to park up a hill about a mile away and very few spots for our group of 6 to layout. In general it makes for a great party scene with lots of music and drinking(Rum Runners), but not so great if you’re looking for something peaceful and quiet. To escape the chaos we bought some inner tubes($ 24) with head rests and drinks holders and just hung out in the water for a couple of hours. Overall a pretty good afternoon.

This is a nice park with a baseball field, tennis courts, playground etc. The breeze feels nice and you can smell the trees. No sounds of traffic can be heard either. I only wish the view of the lake wasn’t blocked by trees. Otherwise it’s a 5 star park. The kids enjoyed it.
