It's not only one of the most beautiful places in the country, but everyone here is laid back, down to earth and totally into nature. How could you not be when you're living in a paradise like this?

Visitor Comments about Lake Tahoe, California

My Score:

Comment: I''ve lived in South shore for 8 years now. Beautiful area, and a great location to access most of north & mid-Cali. Great outdoor activities. On the side of reality...decent jobs are difficult to find, unless you crave being "clean" and working in a smoke-filled (not the good kind) casino. Buying a house is almost out of the question if you are of the low-middle class (meaning normal income), due to the outrageous prices. But that''s Cali in general. Tahoe is dead set on becoming the next Vail, leaving all of its everyday residents behind in the dust. The tourists are catered to, while the locals are crapped on and expected to want all of the tourists here for their money.

No, I''m not a negative person! An I am occasionally a tourist myself! I just think it''s kind of sad that our town has chosen this particular path towards growth. I''ve seen so many people move off the hill so that they can actually afford a decent adult life. At least I can always escape to the wilderness, unless there needs to be another convention center built somewhere!

Comment: I am planning a trip to Lake Tahoe very soon. On a scale of 1-10, how easy is it to access the "Fine Pine" of the Serria''s being a vacationer from out of town. Any feedback would help

Comment: Ok, maybe 10 is a really high score, but i was at lake tahoe when i was about 10 (10 years ago) and it was absolutely beautiful. hopefully it hasn''t become too much of a tourist place, becaus it was one of my favorite places. my family drove down to LA from BC (where i live) and that was one of the places we stopped because my dad loves places like that. and i''d have to recommend it to anyone who wants a beautiful lake surrounded by natural beauty. in fact when i was there, there was only a hotel and a small town on one end of the lake (if i remember right).
