Sugar Pine State Park
Sugar Pine State Park Beach, located near the pristine Pine Lodge mansion, is a sand beach that stretches across 7,000 feet of Lake Tahoe’s west shore. A day at this beach offers varied experiences from swimming and fishing to enjoying the shade of towering pine trees on the gently sloping lawns. The beach is nestled within the historic zone of the Ed Z’berg Sugar Pine Point State Park, making it a perfect blend of nature and history.
