Insanely homestyle and hearty Italian. Been a staple in Kings Beach for ages. We eat there regularly, Cindy eats the eggplant parmagiana 95% of the time, craves it.

Pep's is fairly new, but can cover your needs on several fronts. 1- Breakfast and Coffee. Some great breakfast choices and is probably the best quick coffee spot on the North Shore. 2- quick lunch/bites. 3 - great beer selection as you are heading home.

Definitely one of the best places to dine on the North side of Tahoe. Call for resorvations. Summertime - best evening wine bar on the whole lake.

OK, Garwoods is usually crowded and a bit overpriced, BUT it can be a great place to enjoy the lake while having well-prepared food and super drinks. If you can catch the sunset on the deck without too much of a mob, fantastic.

Parks & Nature

About a mile or so up the Rim Trail you will get an option on the left to take the Summit Spur trail. In total about a 45 min hike up. Excellent 220 degree view of the lake...one of the best short hikes around.

This one is longer, though if you have kids you can go part of the way up and back. There is a stream so there are places to get in the water when it's hot. If you do go all the way it's about 3-4 hours up and back. In the summer you can hike all the way to high camp and take the tram back down (when operations are running).
