Customer Reviews

Broad but not helpful
The guide book gave a broad brush overview of the Lake Tahoe area. But it didn't cover any area well enough to be very useful on our vacation. It would have been fine for a tourist who might never have been to Tahoe, but it didn't help us find the true jewels of the area. We did better driving around, reading brochures and the paper.

A Great Starting Point
This book is a great introduction to the Tahoe area. We have a vacation house there and it's been a good resource. For in-depth information about, for example, hikes it is not the best book. Obviously, though, the authors didn't and couldn't be in-depth about all the numerous activities that Tahoe has to offer!

wonderful,useful book for us grandparents
When a ten year old and a four year old begin to get bored, just pull out the What to do book, leaf through a few pages and "problem solved". We really appreciate the time and effort which clearly has been put in to researching this book.
