My family and I stayed in a hotel in Carson city Nevada because it was cheaper around a week ago that we were visiting those places. It took us 1hour and 30 min to get to Emerald Bay.
We stayed in South Lake Tahoe and it was 25 minutes to get there.
There are places 15-25 minutes away on either South Lake Tahoe or Tahoe City.
