  • This video is quite different than most of our other videos. Our trip to Lake Tahoe had several goof-ups that we wished we hadn't made. So, in addition to things to do at Lake Tahoe ✨, we have shared things you should NOT do on your Tahoe trip❗️
    Sand Harbor Rentals: sandharborrentals.com/
    As this was part of a more extended road trip from SF to Yosemite to Tahoe to SF, our pit stop was at Carson City at this Airbnb the night before:

    We spent the following night at an Airbnb in South Lake Tahoe, but we wouldn't recommend it because of its issues.
    Which of the spots was your favorite? Comment below and let us know! 😊

      @@peoplegetready1021 My husband, their dad, passed away in summer 2021, and the boys weren't yet ready for a vacation in 2022. It wasn't about Lake Tahoe, but about their grief. They barely left our condo. This summer, they did a little better with our short trip to Hot Springs, Arkansas. We just hung at the lake and went kayaking. Another small step in our grief journey.

    This is one of the best videos on visiting Lake Tahoe. We're planning to go in two weeks, any tips on lodging? North or south part of the lake, which hotel/airbnb would you recommend?

    • @MadOverExploring
      @MadOverExploring  Рік тому +1

      Reading that makes our day! Thank you. Since our trip was part of a longer road trip, we stayed in Carson City the night before at an Airbnb. We did not have a pleasant experience with our 2nd Airbnb near the south lake so skipped including that. I would recommend to find a place in the north. Chances are stays there would be generally cheaper and more available compared to the busy south.

    how are the roads ? are they narrow ? winding? steep? guarded?

    • @MadOverExploring
      @MadOverExploring  2 роки тому +2

      Hello! Most of the loop around the lake is formed by Highways 28, 50, and 89. All of them are well-marked, and we didn't have any issues driving. The only windy parts we remember distinctly are near the Emerald Bay State Park, but nothing super-sketchy. Drive at the speed limit, enjoy the views, and you'll be fine! 😃
