I am a native Californian.. and grew up spending summer vacations in Lake Tahoe. SO lucky. We go there, still, often. It is without a doubt ... heaven on earth. Glad you had a wonderful time.
Lake Tahoe has been our favorite for a long time!
Thank you for this wonderful visit, just gorgeous
My grandparents retired in South Lake Tahoe and I spent all my summers there. My grandmother was an avid fisherman and loved horses. She would always have a horse for me to ride during the summer. We would wear swimsuits under our riding clothes and ride the horses to Pope Beach, have lunch, swim in the lake and then ride home! Epic memories! I Love Fallen Leaf Lake, it’s one of my favorite campgrounds.
This IS our happy place. We were married in South Lake Tahoe in 1981. We visit as often as we can. Just spectacular. A bit more crowded these days for sure. Glad you now understand Tahoe Blue.
That is awesome! Thank you.
Being from the bay area and a snow skier for about 40 yrs i have been to Tahoe more times than i can remember....Soooo many things to do there no matter what time of yr your there whether at north shore or south shore....Spent alot of time in Homewood and Tahoma as i used to ski Homewood ski resort as my favorite...Cheaper than most the other places and the best view of Lake Tahoe to be had....We always used to set aside a day to take a ride to Carson City, Genoa , Truckee, and especially Virgina City for a little side gig from the lake....My favorite place on planet earth .....
It’s really amazing there!
I live in Reno/Sparks area and I want to thank you for reminding me of the beauty in my backyard! I absolutely loved this video! ❤
Visited Lake Tahoe twice, love it and can't wait to go back!
Our kids live in SL Tahoe. We love to visit because they take us to all the local places. So beautiful there. We were there when they had the fires going on and it was so crazy. But I was glad to experience it.
My family has had a little cabin on the west shore for generations. Whenever I go and get my first glimpse of the lake driving in my heart lifts with sweet emotion. Thank you for letting us see you visit the lake. 🛶🌲💦
That is awesome!
Lake Tahoe is just stunning. I loved going there when I civic in CA, took all my visitors there, great excuse for me to go. I enjoyed your video!!!
You must drive north to Graeagle, California, Lakes Basin, and go hiking, swimming etc. it is beautiful!
Nathan and Marissa, your videos are being punched to the core. Wherever you are, wherever you go, you will create another masterpiece from each of your adventures. Thank you very much.
Wow, thank you!
So cool you made it to Tahoe! I grew up in Sparks, Nevada so spent a lot of time at Tahoe. Our neighbors rented a cabin up there every Summer so of course we went for a few days during that time. I remember climbing all over those huge granite boulders with the neighbor friend. Then most memorable was church camp for two weeks at Camp Galilee in my summer between 9th and 10th grades, not far from Sand Harbor. The last walks I had with my Dad before he got really bad with dementia was at Sand Harbor and Emerald Bay, so yeah, lots of memories at that gorgeous place.
Just beautiful I live in Carson city but super cold water enjoy
My best memory about Lake Tahoe is when my dad went fishing at the lake shore while I played around the boulders. I found a piece of metal that I wanted to show him but he was busy fishing. When we were packed up and ready to leave, I showed him that piece of metal again and he realized that what I had found was a gold nugget, I still have it to this day!
Awwww..what a great memory.
I recently found your channel and went to your merch page and was excited you had hats. Then saw the end of this video. 👍 I love hats.
Yah! Thanks so much for watching! We appreciate that.
3:35 The bench that JJ is leaning against is dedicated to Wallace & Catharine Ruch. Wallace Ruch was a veteran that later became an optometrist (for over 40 years) and an avid outdoorsman.
Wow, thank you for the information.
What a beautiful and stunning place. Thank you for sharing your journey with us, you're such a wonderful family. Take care have a super week. ❤❤🇬🇧
Thank you so much!
I live in Reno, NV! You're so close. We're full-time stationary and it's great that you're in our neck of the woods!
So cool!
I always think, "I want to jump in the water holding a GoPro." But everytime I chicken out. You have my respect Nathan.
Lake Tahoe is one of my all time favorites. My hubby’s family spend a week there ever summer. It is so beautiful!!!
Beautiful and that boat ride was awesome we love Lake Tahoe
Thanks for the look at Tahoe. Live in Southern Ca. and have never been there.
Wonderful video! But mom & Dad, when you have the little ones with you on paddleboards or on water, have on your lifejackets also. You never know what could happen, & you want to be around for those little ones. Or even needing to help them if the occasion arises.
I've always wanted to go up there. I've been hesitant because I'm not really into being in the water, but it seems like a nice getaway from the heat down here in southern Nevada.
My friend, as a fellow Las Vegan and someone who has spent time in Northern Nevada, do yourself a favor and get up there. You don't have to get in the water to enjoy the splendor of Tahoe. Plus, you can visit Virginia City, Carson City, and just get out and be awed by the glorious expansiveness of our great state.
Tahoe has my heart but north of that at Donner Lake and the town of Truckee is even more amazing. Love so much. Thanks for sharing this.
Our pleasure!
We hold our breath through a tunnel too! :)
Love the hats!!!!
Oh when I need to see some genuinely good, happy people I turn to you guys and gals. It refills my heart with joy. Great videos! Stay safe.
Beautiful 😍. Definitely on my bucket list! Also, I was just telling my husband I needed a camping hat😉. Love it!
We moved to Kentucky from the valley in California and miss Lake Tahoe so much. ☹️. When ever we went there a calm would come over me and I was so happy. I hated going home.
I spent so many beautiful seasons at Lake Tahoe. Definitely a very special place. The condo I use to stay at is basically right across the highway from that campground. Also the very best skiing is right there at Heavenly.
Very cool!
This really warms my heart! Tahoe is a staple for us and I'm so glad you got to experience it! Marissa you help us in ways beyond because you demonstrate the importance of creating memories with family. LJMJ creates memories with families by experiences and you get to take home new ideas and creativity. Great video!
Thank you so much!!
I've been going to Tahoe for the past 40 years. I've been there 10 times more often in the winter (skiiing) but the spring and summer trips are almost as memorable. If you go during the spring melt you'll see some stuff you can't see any other time of year.
Same here. Up until 4 years ago, i wood ski 35+ days a year at Squallywood.
We have same Motor Home that you were waiting for to back in spot at campground
Fun and beautiful video. Thank you so much. Blessings
Glad to see you made it to Tahoe. Isn’t it the jewel of the Sierra?! We said our vows there 46 years ago. Never lived further than 50 miles away from it.
Yeah, Tahoe is on my top 5 places in the country I like to go to. Used to live in Vegas and would go up at least once a month for a weekend.
One of your very best videos! Thanks so much for sharing your Lake Tahoe experience!
Amazing!!!
Great video
Wow. Official bucket list for SURE!!!
Great video! My favorite getaway location whenever it's hot down the hill. You showed me sights I've never seen before. I'd love to spend the whole summer in Tahoe. I'm happy you love Tahoe.
What's your favorite lake in Tennessee?
Hi probably Center Hill because it was the closest.
Always look forward to your videos and traveling with you! What a beautiful place! ❤️
We went to Lake Tahoe in 2019...I'm getting major flashbacks 😭😭 back then we only spent 1 night camping, next time we'll definitely spend more than that! ughhh major FOMO, love it 🤩🤩
*OMG never knew you could go to the tea house and the actual house ! we only did the Eagle Falls hike..WOW 😍
Lived in Incline Village 8 yrs. Still miss it today !! We swam in the winter believe tempature of water pretty much the same lol !
Very cool!
I almost crashed my drone in that area so... there must be something there. Great video... can't wait to go back. See you on the road!
Yeah, those big trees come out of nowhere haha. Would love to cross paths!
Im with Marissa! Water is my happy place!
OMG, as a Nevadan, this was so glorious to watch. I LOVE Tahoe and Northern Nevada!
Oh wow you drove right through Placerville where we live! We got married on the beach in Lake Tahoe-pretty spectacular!
I have a cabin in Tahoe that me and my family go to every summer. I love the overall vibe of lake tahoe, the theming of everything is amazing. In fact, I'm actually gonna head to my cabin at the end of this week!
Welcome to my backyard, it's a privilege to live here! But I NEVER get into the water. It doesn't really warm up until September, haha... :D
Oh wow!
Just camped at Fallen Leaf Lake for my first time (ever) last month. It was our first stop on a month long trip. I was amazed by the lake and the campground. It's a great alternative to Lake Tahoe if you can't get a spot there or want something a little slower paced.
What a great video. I felt like I was there.
Wow! Now I see why Lake Tahoe is such a big deal!
We recently moved away from the Tahoe area and I'm missing Tahoe this summer!
Yep Lake Tahoe is the best….I’ve lived in Reno my whole life. Enjoy!
The sand on the beach is "like crushed rock" because it is crushed rock = decomposed granite.
I want my own Tea House 🏠
Lake Tahoe is heaven on earth! I'm SO glad you were able to go out boating on the Lake and that you enjoyed your time in CA paradise!
So beautiful 😍 We are trying to find a place that works for our 35 ft 5th wheel this week in Tahoe
I absolutely love Lake Tahoe. It's 3 hours away from my house. Sand harbor is so beautiful and I love to stay in north Tahoe. It's quieter and more laid back. The water is very cold but I love it. Glad you were able to enjoy our little slice of heaven.
Woww that water is sooo absolutely amazing!! Can’t wait to see it in person 🥰
The hats are a GENIUS idea!! And live the design!!
I have a really really important question?? How is it living in that size of RV? Me and my husband are about to purchase our forever home in the next month. We keep on going back and fourth about the size..... I think a 24-26 will be good. Hubby thinks 27- 29ft 😖 my reasoning is because this will be our main transportation (not towing) but with Ebikes. We plan on doing lots of Boondocking more then campsites and not into having lots of stuff, just toys like inflatable paddle board, clothes & food.
We value your expert experience of having bigger and smaller and being on the road for so many years 🙏🏽 that would help out immensely on our decision making. We don’t know many who have had big & small rigs
🌺Lori&Ruben🤙🏽
We will talk more about our Class C experience in upcoming videos. It's so tough to say what would be best for you specifically.
Definitely a great experience huh!
Um...Mom and Dad, no life vest??
That water is CCCCOLD!!! Not the time to find out how long you can tread water!
Another Great video! Who’s counting but is that your 3rd crashed drone?
😀
@@LessJunkMoreJourney You guys are the greatest. Well, was I right?
We were just there last month! But we couldn’t get into that CG. You were lucky! I was only able to find one night so we went with Boondockers Welcome. Isn’t the water BEAUTIFUL?!!! And we’ve done the caddy-corner parking at the beach campgrounds. Gotta do it! Were you there mid-June? (Not done watching so maybe you say😊)
Excellent videos again guys. What do you use to record with and what are the settings please :) I'm in the market.
Here is a link to all our filming gear. As far as settings that changes for each scene. www.lessjunkmorejourney.com/gear/filming-gear
Beautiful place. Fond memories of the area. The water is so clear. Would love to snorkel that sunken barge. Be sure to put that life vest on Hensley. It is the law in California!
Lake Tahoe is insane on the 4th of July. Have lots of fun! Ca boating law requires life jackets for all children under the age of 13.
As a local i find the place a little overrated but when it snows the snow capped mountains do make the place 100x more beautiful.
I was thinking the same thing as your daughter when she asked why is that person screaming. lol.
We hope to go someday 🙂
1960 Winter Olympics were in Squaw Valley (North of Lake Tahoe), which is great to go uphill and explore. We love Tahoe. I hiked up the Eagle Lake trail when I was 7 1/2 months pregnant. It was after the earthquake and many of the rocks were shaken loose that made up the trail. I am 5' tall and it was a challenge to keep pace w/ my 6'-4" husband! Truly a very special place.
Loved your video of Lake Tahoe! We enjoyed our visit there last month also. We’ll need to go back soon, there is so much to see! Sorry to see your DRONE CRASH! Hopefully it’s ok, which drone was it? Will you get a new one????
We will see maybe it can be fixed.
We’ve been there and it’s probably the most beautiful place I’ve ever been! I did get scared driving there from Carson City, NV where my husband’s cousin lives. My husband’s aunt dealt blackjack until she was like 90 years old in Lake Tahoe! In the winter it’s pretty harsh, unless you love to ski, then you probably wouldn’t mind. Thanks for sharing this! I love it! Makes me want to go back.
Thanks for telling us the best campsites. Please do that more often🥰
You are welcome.
I'm with Nathan on the parking set up and importance of views! Worth it! We did the same thing at Henry's Lake State Park in Idaho to maximize our lake front view :)
Because Hensley, that water was snow 6,000 feet ago and it's tempetature didn't rise more than a degree or two since it melted.
My brother lives in Carson City so when we went for his wedding, we drove to South Lake Tahoe and went to the Tallac Historic site. It rained the day we went and it had not rained for months. My brother said we brought it from Louisiana 😆. Even on a grey, dreary day, Lake Tahoe was beautiful. The crystal clear water just amazed this girl who’s used to muddy lakes.
It truly is a beautiful place , And from what I understand it's a little squatchy late at night
The last time I was in Lake Tahoe it was over 20 years ago for a wedding. It was beautiful there. That lake is beautiful I was there in June and swam in it and there was still snow there. Thank you though for taking me to a place where I never been before Emerald Bay! I’m so glad Nathan found the drone. Hope it was repairable. I hope you have a great Fourth of July and great week and see you all soon! 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
Hey, you guys are just up the road from us! It is very beautiful up there!
We had a house growing up at Lake Tahoe. It was so fun to go there for vacations. Now too busy and crowded. Lake Tahoe is one of my favorites.
Incredible! Sorry about your drone, but what cool footage! 👍🏻🖖🏻😘🙏🏻
Thanks so much!
I was raised in Tahoe City and live in Reno now. My wife and I still make frequent day trips to the lake to just enjoy everything Tahoe has to offer.
I watched this video and after what you said about being a part of 7 brothers and sisters I thought,… our parents and grandparents were strong men & women, (mostly women). We just aren’t having kids like that anymore. Actually, not for a while. You gotta have respect for those generations that grew this great country.
What brand and model are your e-bikes? They look like the perfect size. Not too big or bulky like some of the others I’ve been seeing
Here is a link if you are interested in them. - ebikes: alnk.to/74p3qic
Visited Lake Tahoe in Sept 2017 and we had snow flurries - it was beautiful!! We took the Dixie boat tour of the lake and saw the tea house, home and gorgeous waterfalls you saw and it was just beautiful!
I lived in Lake Tahoe and loved it. So beautiful!
I feel so lucky to only live 2 hours away from Tahoe. We were there just 2 weeks ago on a backpacking trip from DL Bliss State Park to Emerald Bay State Park. Got to camp right on Emerald Bay for 2 nights. So beautiful and so peaceful! Vikingsholm is a cool place to see (done the tour before). It's actually open for tours again, but I think you were there too early in the season before they started up. Safe travels!!
Was this early summer? Is the water always that cold? Thinking about adding this stop on our trip out to the Pacific coast in summer of 2025? ~Kelli
Never been there, but Girl! If my butt looked that good, I would let my husband film me from that angle too. LOL! Great video. Such a beautiful place. Thank you for sharing.
I feel so blessed to live in California, near the ocean and close to Lake Tahoe. 😍🙏❤️
Happy 4th to you and the family! 🎆 🎇 🧨 Tahoe is such an amazing place. I have many fond memories there. I'm a native Californian. Glad your exploring California. There is so much beauty here. It's a big State and so much to explore . 🏕 Safe travels.
I kayaked from the state park campground all the way down emerald bay and back. On the way back the waves were breaking over me, so i had to use my kayak skirt to keep the kayak from filling up with water. Gorgeous but waaay too strenuous. Stupid bf left me behind.
Oh no.
Sooo beautiful! Lake Tahoe is my most favorite place in this country. My dad and stepmother have lived there for about 35 yrs and live 2 miles up the road and have the most beautiful view I’ve ever seen. They live here in Florida in the cold season. Have an awesome time!
That is a great idea on the patch hats. I really love this trip. I always light up too because I’ve seen all the movies and pics. You know that rock you jumped off. It had the shape of a shark coming up outta the water. This was an awesome video. Thank you so much for your journey and sharing. Stay safe.
We stopped at Tahoe on the way home from Klamath 10 years ago. It was beautiful for sure. We will get back there one day. The falls were beautiful! Love the hats.
Our family is about 18 months away from full time rv life and this will be on our list for sure.
It's a great place to visit for sure.
