Hotel

Beach Retreat & Lodge at Tahoe

This hotel is also the venue. We encourage you to stay at the venue, but South Lake Tahoe is a tourist destination with plenty of other options. Additionally it's next to Stateline, NV which has large hotels and casinos. Everything in these two towns is in close proximity but Uber/Lyft can be unreliable.

Flight

Reno-Tahoe Airport (RNO)

The Reno Airport is small, but the closest and easiest airport to fly into. This is the best option if you don't want to rent a car. We deeply apologize if you read a previous version of this website that stated you could take a free shuttle from Reno to South Lake Tahoe. It seems we had a little misunderstanding. The best option would be a taxi / ride share or the South Lake Tahoe Airporter: https://southtahoeairporter.com which has round trip tickets for about $60 according to their website. If this causes a huge issue with your travel plans, please let us know and again, we're so sorry for the misinformation. Additionally, Lake Link provides free transportation in South Lake Tahoe. You can use this to get to and from the bus drop-off and for other local trips: https://ss-tma.org/lake-link/

Flight

Sacramento International Airport (SMF)

Sacramento is the next closest airport (after Reno). It's about a 2 hour drive to the venue, but this route can have heavy traffic at times. We don't know of any shuttles from Sacramento to Tahoe, so this would require a rental car

Flight

San Francisco (SFO)

San Francisco is the largest airport in the region. Google says it's about a 3.5 hour drive to South Lake Tahoe, but this is an optimistic estimate with traffic. We don't know of any shuttles from San Francisco to Tahoe, so this would require a rental car.

Flight

Oakland Airport (OAK)

Oakland is close to San Francisco and sometimes you can find cheaper flights. Southwest flies in and out of Oakland. Google says it's about a 3.5 hour drive to South Lake Tahoe (slightly closer than SFO), but this is an optimistic estimate with traffic. We don't know of any shuttles from Oakland to Tahoe, so this would require a rental car.
