Kings Beach State Recreation Area at Lake Tahoe is 43 miles and less than an hour from downtown Reno. This beautiful, family friendly park on Lake Tahoe's north shore is a perfect place to go when the heat is on in Reno. There is a long sandy beach, a shallow shoreline for children, snack bar and restrooms, and water toy rentals including, paddle boats, water bikes, tubes, and jet skis.

There is a fee for parking if you use the lot managed by the North Lake Tahoe Public Utility District, but admission to the beach recreation area is free. Check out my pictures of Kings Beach State Recreation Area to see what's in store on the north shore.
