Fallen Leaf Lake is truly one of the more beautiful places in California. This dog-welcoming location also has a general store, campground, swimming dock, and you can find pet-friendly cabin rentals to spend the night. Along with opportunities to swim, fish, bike, and picnic, this is also one of the best places in Tahoe to see the shimmering aspens light up in the fall. Known as the second largest lake in the Tahoe Basin (it’s easily to see on that narrow stretch of road between Emerald Bay and the mountainside), Fallen Leaf Lake is encircled by a nice flat 3.5-mile loop trail that is accessible off Fallen Leaf Lake Road. 50 or just go straight to the beach by turning onto Elks Point Road next to the campground. To access Nevada Beach, park close to the trailhead on the corner of Kahle Drive and U.S. Upon reaching the pavement, indented paw prints lead to the south end of the Nevada Beach shoreline where friendly canines are free to roam and swim after sticks in the lake. The path leading to Big Blue is an experience in itself, taking dogs and their owners on a journey through grassy meadows and protective pine trees. On the Nevada side of South Lake Tahoe heading towards the East Shore, Nevada Beach offers a nice wide sandy area at the end of a 1.4-mile Lam Watah Nature Trail. Fun fact about Regan: it’s also the City of South Lake Tahoe’s oldest beach establishment. ![]() Located at the end of Lakeview Avenue (tucked into the neighborhood behind Sprouts Café and Lakeview Commons), Regan Beach has a nice grassy area, a playground, picnic tables, kayak/SUP launching zone, and a dog water park on the eastern end. On the other side of the Tahoe Keys heading towards the heart of South Lake Tahoe, Regan Beach is another popular spot for pups. This beach can be kind of hard to find because of lack of signage, but there’s a nice visitors center (where you can dip into an underground walkway and watch fish swim in Taylor Creek), free parking, restrooms, picnic tables, and a pleasant walking path that leads to Big Blue. Along with plenty of space for your dog to play, the water is shallow and warmer than other parts of the lake that makes it more enjoyable for all. ![]() This lovely long sandy beach is located right off of Highway 89 (3.5 miles north of the Highway 50/Highway 89 intersection) on Tahoe’s southwest shore.
