Campgrounds near Stateline
Stateline sits on the southeast shore of Lake Tahoe, straddling the Nevada-California line next to South Lake Tahoe. RV travelers use it as a base for the lake's south-shore beaches, the casino corridor along Highway 50, and the Highway 89 loop toward Emerald Bay. Elevations sit near 6,200 to 6,300 feet, so nights stay cool even at the height of summer.
The closest full-service RV option is Zephyr Cove Resort, on U.S. Forest Service land a few miles north on Highway 50. It offers 150 campsites split between 93 RV sites with full hookups, 47 walk-in tent sites, and 10 drive-in tent sites under pine cover, with RV sites able to accommodate rigs up to 50 feet. West of town along Highway 89 are Historic Camp Richardson Resort, Camp Shelly, and Emerald Bay State Park, plus Tahoe Valley Campground on the South Lake Tahoe side.
Options range from full-hookup RV villages to primitive tent and boat-in sites, so trip planning depends heavily on rig size and how much infrastructure the group needs.
Things to do near Stateline
The lake itself drives most trips. Zephyr Cove Resort has a marina with boat and watercraft rentals, a mile-long sandy beach, and departures for the M.S. Dixie II paddlewheeler to Emerald Bay. Stateline's casinos add indoor entertainment, dining, and shows within a short drive of the campgrounds.
Highway 89 heading west opens up hiking and sightseeing. Emerald Bay State Park protects Vikingsholm, a 38-room Scandinavian-style house reached by a steep one-mile trail, and connects to the Rubicon Trail toward D.L. Bliss State Park. Nearby stops include the Taylor Creek Visitor Center, Tallac Historic Site, and trailheads for Mt. Tallac and Glen Alpine reached from Camp Shelly.
Winter shifts activity to skiing at Heavenly, snowshoeing, and snowmobile tours from Zephyr Cove.

The core camping season on the south shore runs from late spring through early fall. Emerald Bay State Park's Eagle Point Campground typically opens in mid-June and closes around Labor Day. The Emerald Bay Boat-In Camp opens for the season around Memorial Day weekend on a first-come, first-served basis, then switches to reservations in mid-June. Camp Shelly generally runs early June through Labor Day. Historic Camp Richardson Resort operates seasonally, with most services running late spring through fall.
July and August are peak, with warm days, dry weather, and the busiest lake traffic. June can still see snowmelt and mud at lower loops, and mosquitos are common. September and early October bring quieter beaches, cooler nights, and open trails.
Winter brings heavy snow. Highway 89 around Emerald Bay is subject to closures, and chains or 4WD are frequently required. Zephyr Cove Resort accepts reservations year-round, making it one of the few Tahoe-basin RV options during ski season.
How to book campgrounds near Stateline
Reservation systems vary by campground. Zephyr Cove Resort is a U.S. Forest Service concessioner site booked through Recreation.gov. Emerald Bay State Park's Eagle Point Campground and Emerald Bay Boat-In Camp use ReserveCalifornia, with a booking window that opens six months ahead of the arrival date, to the day.
Camp Shelly is operated by the Livermore Area Recreation and Park District under a Forest Service permit and is booked by phone or email through LARPD, with tiered opening dates for ADA, Livermore residents, and the general public. Historic Camp Richardson Resort is a private resort booked directly through camprichardson.com. Tahoe Valley Campground is a Thousand Trails property, with reservations through Thousand Trails or Encore RV Resorts.
Summer weekends fill fast. Popular sites at Emerald Bay can book out within minutes of the six-month window opening, so setting a calendar reminder is essential.
What to expect at Stateline campgrounds
Sites sit among Jeffrey and ponderosa pines at high elevation, so pack layers even in July. Nights routinely drop into the 40s Fahrenheit, and afternoon thunderstorms can build on hot days. Bears are active throughout the basin, and bear-proof food lockers are standard at Zephyr Cove Resort, Emerald Bay State Park, and Camp Shelly. Food and scented items must be stored in the locker, not in vehicles, and state park rangers actively enforce food-storage rules.
Rig-length limits vary sharply. Zephyr Cove Resort accepts rigs up to 50 feet, while Emerald Bay State Park's Eagle Point Campground has 18-foot parking spurs, no hookups, and no dump station. Camp Shelly caps motorhomes at 24 feet.
Pet policies also differ: Emerald Bay bans dogs on trails and beaches, while Camp Shelly and Tahoe Valley Campground permit leashed dogs.

Frequently asked questions about campgrounds near Stateline, NV
How much does it cost to rent an RV in Stateline, NV?
Good news: an RV rental in Stateline, NV is often more affordable than you'd expect for a Lake Tahoe getaway. Travel trailers typically start around $90 to $150 per night, campervans run $125 to $200, and Class C motorhomes range from $175 to $300 per night, depending on size, season, and host. Summer (June through August) and ski season (December through March) are the priciest windows because Heavenly Resort and the Tahoe shoreline draw huge crowds. Pro tip: book a mid-week stay in late May or October to score a cheap RV rental in Stateline and enjoy quieter beaches at Nevada State Park. Use the price filter on RVezy to set your nightly budget before browsing.
travelnevada.com/cities/stateline/What license do I need to rent an RV in Stateline, NV?
Great news for first-time renters: a regular driver's license is all you need to rent an RV in Stateline, NV. There's no special RV endorsement or commercial driver's license required in Nevada for the Class A, Class B, Class C motorhomes, travel trailers, and fifth wheels available on RVezy. You'll need to be 25 or older and complete a quick ID verification through the RVezy platform when you book. Visiting from outside the US? Bring your home country license plus an International Driving Permit from your local auto association (usually under $20). That's it, you're cleared to cruise the Kingsbury Grade and explore the Tahoe basin.
dmv.nv.gov/dlmain.htmIs RV insurance and roadside assistance included with my Stateline rental?
Yes, every RV rental in Stateline booked through RVezy includes a renter protection plan and 24/7 roadside assistance, so you can focus on the views, not the what-ifs. During checkout you can choose from different protection tiers based on the coverage level you want, and roadside assistance is included with each plan. If you get a flat on Highway 50 heading toward South Lake Tahoe or run into battery trouble at a Zephyr Cove pullout, one phone call gets help dispatched. That peace of mind is why so many first-timers feel confident booking a Lake Tahoe RV trip.
rvezy.com/insurance-and-protectionWhat happens if I need to cancel my Stateline RV rental?
Booking is low-risk: RVezy sets the cancellation policy (not individual hosts), and there is a money-back grace period right after you book so you can lock in your dates with confidence. Refund eligibility after the grace period depends on how far in advance you cancel relative to your trip start date. Full policy details are available on the RVezy Help Center. Pro tip: Tahoe summer weekends sell out fast, so reserve early and use the grace period as your safety net while you finalize campground spots at Zephyr Cove or Nevada Beach.
help.rvezy.com/hc/en-us/articles/360037736674-Understanding-the-cancellation-policy-for-guestsCan I bring my dog on an RV rental in Stateline, NV?
Absolutely, a pet-friendly RV rental in Stateline, NV is easy to find. Just toggle the Pet-Friendly filter on RVezy and you will see plenty of hosts who welcome dogs (some allow cats too). Your pup will love it here: Kahle Community Dog Park in Stateline has fenced areas, and nearby Van Sickle Bi-State Park allows leashed dogs on miles of trails straddling the NV/CA border. Most Nevada-side beaches restrict dogs in summer, but Kiva Beach just over the line in California is a famous dog-friendly favorite. Pro tip: message the host before booking to confirm any pet fees, and pack a towel for after lakeside paw dips.
fs.usda.gov/r5/ltbmuCan the RV be delivered to my campground or hotel in Stateline?
Yes, RV delivery in Stateline is one of the most popular options, especially for travelers flying into Reno-Tahoe International Airport (about 60 miles north). Many RVezy hosts will deliver and set up your motorhome or travel trailer directly at Zephyr Cove RV Park, Nevada Beach Campground, or a private cabin driveway in Kingsbury. They will level the rig, hook up water and power, and walk you through every system so you do not lift a finger. Filter by Delivery on RVezy to see hosts offering this service. It is a game-changer for first time renting an RV or if you would rather skip towing through the Sierra switchbacks.
rvezy.com/rv-search?SearchAddress=Stateline%2C%20NevadaHow far can I drive on a typical Stateline, NV RV trip?
Most Stateline hosts offer between 100 and 150 free miles per night, with some listing RV rentals with unlimited mileage for road-trippers. Additional miles typically run $0.30 to $0.50 each. The good news: Stateline is perfectly positioned for short, scenic loops. A full circle of Lake Tahoe is just 72 miles, Carson City is 24 miles away, Reno is about 58 miles, and Yosemite's Tioga Pass entrance is roughly 130 miles south (open summer only). Check each listing's mileage policy before booking and message the host if you're planning a bigger Sierra adventure. They're often flexible if you ask up front.
nps.gov/yose/planyourvisit/tioga.htmWhere are the best campgrounds near Stateline, NV?
You've got incredible options for RV camping in Stateline within a few minutes' drive. Zephyr Cove RV Park & Campground sits right on Lake Tahoe's east shore with full hookups and a sandy beach. Nevada Beach Campground (US Forest Service) offers stunning lakefront sites just two miles from the Stateline casinos, no hookups but unforgettable sunsets. Cave Rock Campground gives you boat launch access and big-tree shade. Across the line in California, Camp Richardson Resort is a classic for families. Pro tip: Nevada Beach books up six months out on Recreation.gov, so set a reminder when the booking window opens to snag the best lakefront RV sites.
recreation.gov/camping/campgrounds/231959When is the best time to visit Stateline, NV in an RV?
Stateline is a true four-season destination, so the best time depends on your vibe. Late June through early September brings warm, dry days (highs in the 70s to low 80s) and ideal lake weather, this is peak season for RV camping Stateline style. September and early October are the local insider's secret: crowds thin, aspens turn gold along Hope Valley, and nights cool into the 40s. December through March transforms Stateline into a ski basecamp for Heavenly Resort, but only winterized RVs with heated tanks can handle it. Pro tip: book a shoulder-season Lake Tahoe RV trip in late September for cheap rates, open campgrounds, and stunning fall color.
weather.gov/rev/I've never driven an RV before. Is Stateline a good place to start?
Yes, especially if you choose delivery or a smaller campervan rental in Stateline. Every RVezy host gives you a hands-on orientation at pickup, walking you through the generator, slide-outs, water systems, and dump procedures so you're not guessing. For first time renting an RV, we recommend a Class B campervan or a 22 to 25-foot Class C motorhome, both easy to handle on Highway 50. Skip Kingsbury Grade in winter and ask your host to deliver to a flat site at Zephyr Cove instead. You can also message hosts before booking with any questions, they're locals who want your trip to go great.
nvroads.com/What if something goes wrong with the RV during my trip?
You are covered. Every RVezy rental includes 24/7 roadside assistance as part of the renter protection plan, so help is one phone call away whether you are stuck on a Spooner Summit shoulder or dealing with a dead battery at Cave Rock. Your host is also your first lifeline for quick fixes, most respond fast via the RVezy app and many live right in the Stateline or South Lake Tahoe area. RVezy customer support is available before, during, and after your trip. Pro tip: save the roadside number in your phone before pulling out of pickup, and snap photos of every system during your walkthrough for easy reference.
help.rvezy.com/hc/en-us/articles/34008759079835-RVezy-renter-protection-plans-in-detailCan I take my Stateline RV rental across state lines or into Canada?
Yes, an RV road trip from Stateline across state lines is one of the best parts of the location. You are right on the California border, so day trips to South Lake Tahoe, Truckee, and Yosemite are completely fine on any RVezy booking. Heading to Oregon, Utah, or Arizona is also allowed by most hosts, just confirm during booking. Cross-border travel into Canada may be allowed depending on the host and insurance validity, so message before booking. Important: travel to Mexico is not permitted on RVezy rentals because insurance coverage does not extend there. Popular routes include the Sierra Loop to Mammoth Lakes (about 160 miles south) and the Highway 395 corridor.
help.rvezy.com/hc/en-us/articles/360039340074-Insurance-coverage-validityWhat kind of fuel mileage should I expect, and how do I budget for gas?
Realistically, a Class C motorhome from Stateline gets 8 to 12 MPG, a Class A averages 6 to 10 MPG, and campervans (Class B) often hit 15 to 20 MPG, making them the budget-smart pick. Gas prices in Stateline and Nevada generally run a bit lower than across the line in South Lake Tahoe, CA, so always fuel up at the Nevada side stations on Highway 50 before crossing. For a one-week Tahoe loop covering 300 miles, budget around $150 to $250 in fuel for a Class C. Pro tip: hilly climbs up Kingsbury Grade and Spooner Summit cut MPG, so add a 15% cushion to your fuel budget if you're heading into the mountains.
eia.gov/petroleum/gasdiesel/How far in advance should I book a campground near Stateline?
Book early, Lake Tahoe campgrounds are some of the most competitive in the West. US Forest Service sites like Nevada Beach and Fallen Leaf open their reservation window six months ahead on Recreation.gov, and prime summer weekends often sell out within minutes. Nevada State Park sites at Sand Harbor book through ReserveNevada and fill quickly for July and August. Private parks like Zephyr Cove RV Park accept reservations up to a year in advance. Pro tip: if you missed the window, check for cancellations 2 to 3 days before your trip, they happen constantly. Pair this with RV delivery in Stateline and you have locked in a stress-free setup.
recreation.gov/camping/campgrounds/231959What are the driving conditions like around Stateline, NV?
Stateline driving is mostly manageable, but there are a few things to know. Summer roads are smooth and scenic, Highway 50 east toward Carson City and Highway 28 north along the Nevada shore are RV-friendly with wide lanes. The notorious stretch is Kingsbury Grade (NV-207), a steep, winding climb to Daggett Pass at 7,334 feet, best avoided by larger Class A motorhomes and absolutely treacherous in winter without chains. Echo Summit on US-50 west is another snowy chokepoint December through April. Always check NDOT road conditions before departure. Pro tip: stick to lakeshore routes in your motorhome rental Stateline trip and you'll enjoy easy, jaw-dropping driving the whole way.
nvroads.com/What amenities do campgrounds near Stateline offer?
Campgrounds near Stateline run the full spectrum so you can pick what matches your rig. Zephyr Cove RV Park offers full hookups (water, sewer, 30/50 amp electric), Wi-Fi, showers, laundry, and a camp store, perfect for any motorhome. Nevada Beach has no hookups but provides potable water fill stations, vault toilets, and bear-proof food lockers (yes, bears are real here, store food properly). Cave Rock has a dump station and boat launch. For dumping and fresh water between trips, Zephyr Cove's public dump station is the easiest option on the Nevada side. Pro tip: confirm hookup needs with your host before pickup so they can stock the right hoses and adapters.
fs.usda.gov/recarea/ltbmu/recreation/camping-cabins/recarea/?recid=11811What's included inside a typical Stateline RV rental?
Stateline RVezy rentals come ready to roll. Expect a fully equipped kitchen with fridge, stove, microwave, sink, and basic cookware, a bathroom with toilet and shower (most Class C and larger units), comfortable sleeping for 2 to 8 people depending on layout, dinette, AC and furnace, and seatbelted seating for travel. Most rigs include a TV and many offer generators or solar for off-grid stays at Nevada Beach. Wi-Fi varies, cell signal is solid in Stateline but spotty around the lake's west shore, so download maps offline. Pro tip: ask your host about add-ons like bedding kits, camp chairs, paddleboards, or bike racks. Many Tahoe hosts have lake-ready gear available.
travelnevada.com/discover/27089/lake-tahoe/What add-ons and pickup options should I look for when I rent an RV in Stateline, NV?
Tahoe hosts offer some of the best add-ons in the country. Popular options include kayak and paddleboard packages ($25-50/day), bike racks, snow chains in winter ($15-30/trip, sometimes required by Nevada law on mountain passes), Wi-Fi hotspots, generators, and pre-stocked bedding/kitchen kits. For pickup, you can either grab the RV at the host's location near Stateline or Gardnerville or have it delivered to your campsite (the easier choice for most travelers). Mileage policies range from 100 miles/night up to unlimited, so compare listings carefully. Pro tip: bundle delivery, setup, and a paddleboard rental into one booking for the ultimate plug-and-play Lake Tahoe RV experience.
dot.nv.gov/travel-info/road-info/tire-chain-requirementsHow does payment and the security deposit work?
Payment is simple and secure: RVezy charges your card at booking, with the rental cost plus your chosen protection plan handled through the platform (never pay your host directly). A refundable security deposit is held separately for the trip and released after the host confirms the RV came back in good condition, usually within a few days of return. Deposit amounts vary by listing but commonly range from $500 to $1,500 for Stateline rentals. Pro tip: do a detailed walkthrough video at pickup and drop-off, time-stamped photos protect both you and the host and make deposit returns smooth. That is the real secret to a worry-free family RV trip in Stateline.
help.rvezy.com/hc/en-us/articles/360038106214-How-the-security-deposit-worksCan I rent an RV in Stateline for a winter ski trip to Heavenly?
Yes, and it is an incredible way to ski Heavenly Resort without paying peak hotel rates. Many Stateline hosts list four-season RVs with heated holding tanks, insulated underbellies, and propane furnaces built for sub-freezing nights (Stateline drops into the teens and 20s December through February). You will need a campground with shore power and winter water, Zephyr Cove RV Park stays open year-round with winter hookups. Filter for winter-ready rigs and message hosts to confirm tank heaters and shore power compatibility. Pro tip: park at Zephyr Cove and ride the BlueGo bus to the Heavenly gondola, no chains, no parking stress, just ski-in, RV-out adventure.
