A wooded U.S. Forest Service campground just south of Tahoe City, William Kent sits in tall pines a short walk across the highway from the lake. It's a quieter, more affordable alternative to the beachfront spots while still putting you right in the heart of the North and West Shore action.
Sites work for tents and RVs (no hookups), and you're minutes from Commons Beach, Tahoe City dining and the paved lakeside bike path.
