The Ritz Carlton Lake Club is connected to, but separate (kinda) from the Lake Tahoe Ritz Carlton. Outstanding service (ask for Lexie). The location, accommodations, food, beer, views, and ambiance are worth it. As a long-time Ritz enthusiast, it amazes me that the Ritz continues to outdo itself. We will return again in the summer.

We had the BEST day at the Ritz-Carlton Lake Club. This is a premium experience but it was worth every penny we spent. The staff were superb. They were all so friendly, helpful, and accommodating. I loved that everything but alcohol was included. The grilled foods were very good and I appreciate that the club supplied towels and high quality sunscreen. It was a peaceful and relaxing day overall. We enjoyed using the kayak and the paddle boards. We booked this trip for our honeymoon and it did not disappoint. I hope we will get to go back again someday!

What an amazing experience! They made some great cocktails, gave us some sunnies, and let us lounge and enjoy the summer sun. The food was pretty good and had something for everyone. It was a really great time (and pricey we discovered after the fact when trying to recreate the moment).
