The most beautiful place around....unless you're Eli

[GRADS]

Tahoe's beautiful. Not the best place for water recreation because it's so cold and can turn ugly real quick.

The pine tree air is worth the price of admission by itself.

It's a great place to boat....now swimming is a little different story but there are places in the lake where the water is a little warmer and you can swim. The water gets super ugly in the late afternoons if it is windy...we almost had our boat sink one time. Eli hated all the pine trees.

We've camped at a little lake called Rollins in Colfax (East of Sac.) a few times. Great ski lake during the week. Locals hit it hard on the weekends. We're usually there around the same time as Hot August Nights, so we just buzz over the hill to Reno on the weekend.

We go to Rollins occasionally. It's kind of a small lake but they have a cool sandbar. It's about 35 minutes from where we live so it makes more sense for us to go to Folsom.
