There are miles of lakefront along Lake Tahoe in Homewood, so the views are definitely heavenly. When you book an RV in Homewood, you can easily reach cities like Reno, Carson City, and even Sacramento with ease. Don’t miss out on this exciting vacation destination that has largely remained a hidden gem despite being in the popular Lake Tahoe area.

The Great Outdoors

There is a nearly infinite number of places to visit when it comes to outdoor exploration and recreation, so creating a Homewood RV rental vacation itinerary can be a daunting task if you let it. This should be approached as an exciting prospect because anyone would be lucky to venture into the spectacular scenic areas high up in the Sierra Nevada Mountains. Sugar Pine Point State Park is an obvious place to head, practically bordering Homewood to the south. The forest was once home to extensive logging operations but has since rebounded to return to its former glory. Lush groves of cottonwoods, lodgepole pines, and white firs are fabulous places to hike through while indulging in the magical scenery of the lakefront park. There is a natural center where you can learn about the local environment, as well as winding walking, biking, snowshoeing, and cross-country skiing trails depending on the time of year.

Emerald Bay State Park is also located on the shores of Lake Tahoe, giving you yet another place to take your Homewood camper rental during your vacation. This designated National Natural Landmark has jaw-dropping views of the serene lake, as well as the captivating snowcapped mountains that surround the lake. In addition to the natural scenery, you can visit the amazing Vikingsholm, a Scandinavian style castle that was built on the premises.

There are lots of national parks and forests to choose from within a few hours’ drive, but Tahoe National Forest is the easiest to reach since it practically envelopes Lake Tahoe. Nearly 900,000 acres comprise this stunning, sprawling forest. There are winding rivers, refreshing lakes, towering mountains, and sublime, natural canyons to be seen while hiking through or camping in the forest with your Homewood camper rental. When you rent an RV and head off into the Tahoe National Forest, you can also see some of the world’s largest trees, the mighty sequoias, in addition to old-growth groves of ancient trees.

Where to Park It

Lake Tahoe is among the most visited natural landmarks in the country, so it's no secret that there are hundreds of campgrounds and RV parks to choose from when you pick up your Homewood motorhome rental in town. Meeks Bay Resort is on the lake, full of features and amenities. The resort has lakefront camping with spacious campsites along the water and fine dining options located within the resort.

Most of the other options nearby are public parks run by the state or federal government. Kaspian Recreation Area, Sugar Pine Point State Park, D.L. Bliss State Park, and Tahoe State Recreation Area are among the many options you can look into when searching for a place to camp overnight. Tahoe National Forest also has dozens of camping areas to consider during your trip.

City Attractions

Since most of the towns surrounding Lake Tahoe enjoy their fair share of tourism, visitors are usually impressed with the points of interest and local attractions when they rent an RV and explore the area. The Tahoe Maritime Museum provides a fascinating insight into the history of the lake’s bustling commerce and trade. The natural history and shipwrecks are explored with great detail in the museum, and there are several boats on display.

The Hellman-Ehrman Mansion and the Vikingsholm mentioned above are two examples of historic mansions and castles in the Lake Tahoe area that you can explore while marveling at the unique architectural design. The Hellman-Ehrman Mansion is full of ornate, extravagant furniture and other assorted antiques, while its grounds and gardens are a tranquil place to stroll or meditate in.

Homewood Mountain Resort is among the most popular attractions in town, with lots of exciting slopes and trails to enjoy the powdery snow. Carve up the slopes in style while gazing out over the incredible lake at the base of the mountain. There are several other ski and snowboard resorts nearby like Boreal Mountain, Northstar, and Sugar Bowl Mountain among many others.
