Stay
Firelite Lodge
@katemyers
This is the first and only place we’ve ever stayed in Tahoe. Clean, basic rooms, some with a lake view, and it’s easy walking acces to a great public beach when you don’t feel like driving anywhere.

Safeway
@katemyers
This is the grocery store closest to the firelite. We typically stock up and pack food for most breakfasts and lunches so we can spend most of our food budget on dinner/the occasional lunch!
