Tahoe Casinos: 10Best Casino Reviews

One of the members here asked this question: Anyone wanna share stories of times SO’s spidey senses were tingling and you had to do damage control?
This happened many many years ago, when I was new to the "being married" life. My wife and I went to South Lake Tahoe and we were sitting together playing roulette. It was decent occupancy...all the tables were full, but not so crowded that I could not get a view of people around and about. I caught sight of a blonde stunner walking past the craps table, and she turned the corner, the casino lane took her toward our table. I was trying very hard not to stare, but this woman was simply one of the most gorgeous babes I've ever seen. Imagine Tiffany Coyne from "Let's Make A Deal" (yes, I go gaga for skinny blonde Barbies!) 🔥❤️
As she approached our table, I wondered if she was an escort. Or maybe she was already with someone and was just browsing the scene alone while her man was gambling somewhere else. She casually gazed over our table and then kept walking at a slow but steady pace. And then she passed us and was out of sight. She never made eye contact with me, so I figured she wasn't looking for company. But with my wife sitting right next to me, maybe she didn't want to waste her time with me? I couldn't think about what numbers I wanted to bet anymore, lol...I was struck with a huge dose of sexual uneasiness...my mind was wandering and I began daydreaming about her. These lingering thoughts can be so pleasurable in and of itself, and I was shifting so much in my seat that my wife asked me if I needed to use the bathroom! I said no and we continued to play.
10 minutes later, I could see the blonde again...walking the same route as she did before. I was going to get to enjoy another chance of this eye candy, and as I looked around at the others, it boggled my mind how nobody else was really looking at her. When people are deeply in their gambling and smoking and drinking, I suppose sex isn't high on the list! But being the nymph that I am, I could not resist. This time, I made a conscious effort to stare. And this time she made eye contact with me! She gave a very quick and sweet smile, and proceeded to keep walking. Again, she went out of sight.
At this point, I was 50% sure that she was a high-priced escort. But there were too many unknowns to be 100% for sure. I needed more clues. I was hoping that she would walk around a third time, so that I can stare at her again and perhaps give her some flirty or inviting gesture to indicate that I'm interested. But she never came by again.
After about 20-30 minutes, I didn't see her so I figured she left...maybe with somebody else or went to play slots or her room. Who knows. But my wife wanted to play something else so we grabbed our chips and left the roulette table. She went to play slots and I went to cash in the chips. Near the cashier's cage, there was a hallway that led to the restrooms. And at a short distance, I saw the blonde...and she was looking my way. I took my cash and proceeded toward the bathroom...staring at this beauty all the way. She and I locked eyes and she just blurted it out, "Hey I saw you looking at me." I thought she was going to be mad for staring, but before I could say sorry, she asked me if I wanted company! I was like... JACKPOT!!!!!! She asked if I had a room, and I said yes. I gave her the room number and told me to meet me on that floor near the elevator. But first, I needed to go tell my wife that I will be playing in the slot area too, and I made up some bullshit thing like don't come look for me because I believe it's bad luck if I have someone next to me when I'm playing the slots. She said ok.
I took the elevator to my floor and when the doors opened, there she was! Did I fucking die and go to heaven? She gave me this soft hug and her body felt so nice to hold. Whatever perfume she was wearing was smelling very nice! I gently squeezed the small of her back toward me...I made sure she could feel "my excitement" in her crotch area. She was wearing a tight thin dress, so I knew she felt me. I held her hand and led her to my room. When we got inside the room, she confessed that she and her husband had lost a lot of money at Harrahs, and she was very pissed off at him. And she asked me if I would be willing to help her out. Well, at least she wasn't an escort, but nothing was going to stop me now. This was a Tiffany Coyne lookalike...and I'm fucking this woman 👉👌💦come hell or high water!
I don't want to go into details, but there was no clock watching or hastiness. We took out sweet time, and I enjoyed every inch of her body. I was so built-up that I couldn't hold my cum in anymore...and ended up shooting it deep down her throat when she was sucking. But I was still hard as a rock and we kept going. We did several positions for the next 30-40 minutes.....then she got on top of me to ride me...but after about 5 minutes into that, my worst nightmare looked like it was going to happen! Someone was trying to open my hotel door!
The blonde suddenly stopped riding me...I pushed her off me and jumped toward the door to hold it closed! My wife was on the other side saying, "Hey! Why aren't you letting me in?" The blonde was hiding behind the side of the bed...naked and looking worried...and I motioned her to stay quiet. I cried to my wife, I can't let you in! She kept trying to use her electronic key to open the door and I kept pushing it closed again, and she shouted, "Why not?" I repeated, "I can't! Go back downstairs! I'll meet you there!" She replied, "No, I'm tired! I want to come in the room!"
I was literally feeling like this is the end...I'm gonna get caught...it's over. But suddenly, the words just came out, "I can't let you in...it's embarrassing" She asked, "What's so embarrassing??!!" I told her, "I pooped all over the floor" She asked in disbelief, "WHAT?!" I told her that I think something I ate or drank gave me diarrhea and I ended up shitting my pants before getting to the toilet, and I just want to clean it all up before letting her in. I glanced over at my blonde friend, who was trying her best to control her laughing. "Can you please go downstairs and wait until I'm done?" My wife laughed and said, "Okay, I'll be at the roulette table"
The blonde and I resumed our fucking...it seemed more special after that incident...I guess we bonded being partners in crime? I didn't want to risk my wife coming back up, so I told her let's finish this and fuck me in my favorite position... the reverse cowgirl. When I was about to cum, I pushed her off and splattered her face. We both laughed so hard about what had happened earlier, and soon thereafter, we kissed and parted ways. Wish I had asked for her number...ah, my one regret!
Then, to cover my tracks, I did the unthinkable. I squatted and took a shit on the carpet by the hotel door! I rubbed the shit into the fibers and onto the tile leading to the toilet. I did a half-ass job with the cleaning, so as to prove to my wife that I did have uncontrollable diarrhea. Fuck, the room smelled awful! But it had to be done. I got a $150 cleaning fee from the hotel later, but that was one expense I was more than happy to pay! My wife never did suspect anything, and to this day, I still think that this was the closest I ever came to ruining it with her.
Such are the dangers of this lifestyle 😬

I’ve searched about 10 boxes from my local Wells Fargo in the past 6 weeks. But it’s slow going. Not a lot of great finds. The best bank to dump seems to be a branch 10 miles away across the street from a mall. They are happy to get the coins.
But I will likely be taking a couple trips up to South Lake Tahoe this year. It occurred to me that casinos turn over a lot of circulated coins and perhaps I might get more variety. At the very least they probably will handle some dumping.
Any thoughts on CRH from casinos?

It'll be HUGE.
How huge? It'll have the biggest map in the series, encompassing the whole state of San Andreas (including Los Santos, San Fierro, Las Venturas, and a new city called San Joseph, based on San Jose), with locations you can access by taking a plane to, including Liberty City, Vice City, Carcer City, North Yankton, even locations north and south of the border.
This time, there will be SIX protagonists, these being Michael, Franklin, Trevor, Niko, Taliana Martinez, and an aged, HD Universe version of Tommy Vercetti.
We'll also find out what has happened since GTA V:

• The De Santa family has become a crime family, with Michael as the head, Amanda as the accountant, Tracey as the legal front, and Jimmy as the specialist. They still live in their mansion in the Rockford Hills, still keep in contact with Dave and Lester, and are all happy. In fact, Michael is now contracted by the FIB and IAA to carry out false flag terrorism so the government can justify some new law or new war overseas. He also works for Trevor Philips Enterprises, using his new boat he bought as a coastal tramper to move drugs and guns by sea. Michael also still works in the movies with Solomon,
• Franklin is now married to Ursula (the hitch hiker in V), having bonded over family issues, and works for Trevor Philips Enterprises smuggling illicit goods to and from the Port of Los Santos; these goods range from drugs and guns, to more minor things like bootleg films and games or even just regular, legal goods. Franklin still lives at 3671 Whispymound Drive, but has since vastly expanded it. Franklin has also managed to finally get along with Denise, due to bonding over street racing (Denise was quite the racer in her day).
• Trevor has become the sole provider of drugs in Los Santos and Blaine County, and is now looking to expand to San Fierro and Las Venturas. He'll have to deal with the various Chinese and Vietnamese gangs in San Fierro, and the mobster families in Las Venturas, but he's ready. In addition, Trevor also deals in other goods now, including meat-packing (alongside Cletus), bounty-hunting, scrap metal, and of course, still owns the Vanilla Unicorn (and poor Wade is still there). Trevor still lives in his trailer in Sandy Shores, still has Ron as his next door neighbor and second-in-command, and now has Patricia Madrazo living with him, after Martin abused her one too many times.
• Niko went off the radar, but never actually stopped his life of crime. Making connections in Carcer City, Bellic Enterprises is now a front for a massive criminal organization. But after the IAA basically rooted out his operations in Carcer, and finding out Karen masterminded it, Niko gets Lester's help and tracks her down to Los Santos. Dragging Roman, Mallorie, and their daughter Kate with him, and praying there are no bowling alleys there, Niko sets out not only expand Bellic Enterprises, but get revenge on Karen for not only leading him on as Michelle, but also destroying everything he had worked to build in Carcer.
• After the Union Depository job, Taliana was rich beyond her wildest dreams. Rather than retire, though, she went further, creating her own criminal organization friendly to Trevor Philips Enterprises specializing in boosting, modifying, and reselling cars. This operation has been quite profitable, and she plans to expand to San Joseph, where smug, condescending tech people live with cars she can quickly flip. She's also constantly tangling with the US government, who want to deport her to Mexico even though she's a legal citizen
• Tommy Vercetti is a washed-up crime boss. After the massive success of the Vercetti Gang in the late 80s, he was run out of Vice City by Wei Cheng Sr. After learning of the death of Cheng, Tommy decided it was time to get back into the game, establishing a foothold on Carcer City in the wake of the IAA operation that drove out Bellic Enterprises, with the ultimate goal of getting back to Vice City.

We also get to see how the NPCs are doing:

• Dave is still head of the FIB, and still hosts Underbelly of Paradise, but is also involved with false flag terrorism via Michael.
• Lester was able to bribe Humane Research Labs to uncover the cure for cancer, which the government had ordered them to withold for "population control" reasons, also uncovering a procedure that cured his wasting disease. He is still heavily involved with Trevor Philips Enterprises, and is now lining up jobs to rob big targets, such as Maze, Pacific Standard (having had alot of experience and backdoors left over from the job pulled in 2013), every Fleeca branch in the state, and even every single casino in Las Venturas, one by one.
• Lamar is still the same-old Leeroy Jenkins, with that Apache blood
• Tonya got clean, but JB never did; both were found dead in an apparent murder-suicide
• Tanisha realized that her brain surgeon husband was merely using her as a trophy wife, so she divorced his ass and tried to go back to Franklin, but by then, he was married to Ursula; she will stalk Franklin throughout the game, and you have the choice of either letting it continue, chewing her out, or simply putting a bullet in her head
• The Families are planning to retake Grove Street from the Ballas, with guns bought from Trevor
• The Yellow Jacket Inn is no more; after Trevor was banned again, he did what he does best and burned it to the ground
• Johnny K. is revealed to still be alive, but extremely pissed off at Trevor; he serves as one of the principal antagonists as he and the Lost MC wage war on Trevor Philips Industries across Blaine County, a war the police are powerless to stop, and escalates once TPI takes over Fort Zancudo, thus dragging the US Army into a domestic conflict they rightfully want no part in
• Simeon Yetarian does not canonically die, and he returns as the main antagonist for Taliana, as her racket in San Joseph directly competes with his new credit fraud
• Tao Cheng is now the head of his late father's criminal empire; he's still an x-nut, but now dangerously so, and he has it out for Trevor, while also being targeted by Tommy

So, to recap:

• Protagonists: Michael De Santa, Franklin Clinton, Trevor Philips, Taliana Martinez, Niko Bellic, Tommy Vercetti
• Antagonists: Karen Daniels, Johnny Klebitz, Tao Cheng, Simeon Yetarian
• Cities: Los Santos, San Fierro, Las Venturas, San Joseph, Liberty City, Vice City
• Rural areas: Blaine County, Bone County, Angel County, a Lake Tahoe analogue, North Yankton, Florida Everglades

So, whaddaya think?

A lot is going on in Tahoe during the summer, so here’s a continuously updated listing of events happening around the lake! Feel free to comment below with any updates, I will periodically edit the post with new events that folks send me. See revision notes at the bottom of this post.
Things not included: shows that happen every week all year around (like the Improv at Harvey’s or the Magic Fusion at The Loft), free weekly shows at venues like the CBC and Alibi Truckee (check their event calendars for those!), and children’s camps/classes. I reserve the right to not include every event folks send; a truly comprehensive list would quickly become useless with too many items on it, so I will be a little selective.

Revision History

• 2018-05-16 - Added Concerts at Commons Beach, Omg Fun Run!, Florence and the Machine, Tahoe City Oktoberfest, and League to Save Lake Tahoe (Keep Tahoe Blue) community events. Modified some of the column names and link formatting.

On September 6, 1970, 25-year old Donna Lass mysteriously vanished while working her shift as a nurse at the Sahara Tahoe Hotel-Casino in South Lake Tahoe, California. Donna’s last entry in her log book at her workstation was written at 1:45 AM, but the entry was unsigned and appeared to be unfinished. Her last sentence ended with the words “complains of” before the pen trailed down the page, which seemed to imply that Donna was interrupted in the middle of writing.
Later that same day, Donna’s boss and landlord both received separate phone calls from an unidentified man who claimed that is she was going to be out of town because of a family emergency. Donna’s boss decided to call Donna’s mother in South Dakota and learned there was no family emergency. After Donna was reported missing, her car was found parked at her apartment complex in Stateline, Nevada. She had actually just moved into her new apartment the very same day she went to go work her last shift.
On March 22, 1971, San Francisco Chronicle reporter Paul Avery received a cryptic postcard with a collage pasted on the back. It featured an advertisement for Forest Pines condominiums in Lake Tahoe with an artist’s rendering of a small village of condos near a snow-covered wooded area. There were some cut-out phrases from newspapers and magazines pasted across the ad, and these phrases included “Sierra Club”, “around in the snow”, “peek through the pines”, “pass Lake Tahoe areas” and “sought victim 12”. A hole was also punched over some pine trees located in the upper right hand corner of the ad. The postcard was postmarked “Zodiac” and featured the trademark circle cross symbol which he liked to attach to his correspondence. The specific area pictured in the ad turned out to be the Boise Cascade condominium complex in Incline Village, Nevada, which is located on the north shore of Lake Tahoe. The authorities conducted a search of this area, but found nothing. The implication seemed to be that the Zodiac killer sent the postcard and was taking credit for Donna Lass’ disappearance. The postcard would be the last correspondence from the Zodiac for nearly three years, though Donna’s sister would receive a cryptic Christmas card in 1974, which featured a picture of trees covered in snow and was signed “Best Wishes, St. Donna & Guardian of the Pines”.
There is no direct evidence to tie Donna Lass to the Zodiac killer, but it’s worth noting that before she moved to Lake Tahoe, Donna worked at the Letterman Army Medical Center in the Presidio of San Francisco, only a few blocks away from where the Zodiac murdered his last confirmed victim, Paul Stine, in October 1969. An investigator named Harvey Hines has always believed the Zodiac was a career criminal named Lawrence Kane, who lived in close proximity to the Stine murder. What’s particularly interesting is that Kane and Lass both moved from San Francisco to Lake Tahoe around the same time period and Kane also worked at the Sahara Hotel-Casino, selling real estate out of an office located right down the hall from Donna’s workstation. But even if Kane abducted and murdered her, opinions are still mixed about whether he was actually the Zodiac, as the circumstances behind Lass’ disappearance do not seem to fit the Zodiac’s M.O..
I analyze this disappearance in the latest minisode of my podcast, “The Trail Went Cold":

Hi everyone,
Hope you have a wonderful week. Thanks for the gold on last week's summary. Take care and stay safe. ✌ ♥ ☺
Last week's summary (April 14 - April 20, 2017)
UPDATES

• October 23, 1979 - Harry (53) and Mollie Schlesinger (54) were shot and killed in Austin, Texas (US). Harry and his wife Mollie ran a liquor store and had been preparing to close their shop for the night when an assailant(s) robbed the store and then shot the couple dead. Police later informed the victims’ family that serial killers Henry Lee Lucas and Ottis Toole confessed to the murders. However, some of the family doubted the validity of these claims due to some glaring inconsistencies in the case. The case is personal to one Reddit contributor Bamont because his grandmother was one of the victims of this horrible crime. What happened on that night? (UPDATE:) Some commenter's from the Unresolved Mysteries community offered their assistance in helping Bamont. In particular, Hotblueglue researched the case and found...
  
• December 1, 1981 - Virginia Freeman (40) was found dead beaten with stab wounds and a broken neck in College Station, Texas (US). Virginia was a real estate agent and mother, who was also actively involved in giving back to her community. Virginia was on her way to dinner when she received a call from work about a man wanting to see a house in a secluded area. The man had a southern accent and said he was carrying a large amount of cash. Hoping to make a sale, Virginia left alone to meet the potential client and was never seen alive. What happened to Virginia? (UPDATE:) National Geographic Explorers were contacted and agreed...Who did this to Virginia?
  
• March 14, 2015 - Cristie S. Codd (38) and Joseph "JT" Codd (45) disappeared from their home in Leicester, North Carolina (US). Cristie was a respected chef, who provided catering services to film crews. She was five months pregnant and had recently appeared in the 8th season of the reality show "Food Network Star." Her husband, JT, worked as a key grip in filmmaking. FYI, a key grip collaborates with the director of photography in productions and supervises all "grip (lighting and rigging) crews" (Wikipedia). The couple had hired their neighbor, Robert Jason Owens, as a contractor to do some work in their home. "Owens robbed, assaulted and threatened the couple with weapons before killing them." He would later admit to dismembering their bodies to conceal evidence (CBS News). Robert J. Owens is still a person of interest in the disappearance of Zebb Quinn (UPDATE:) Robert Owens has accepted a plea deal in the murders of JT Codd and Cristie, and...Will this provide any new information on Zebb?

The shooter's attacks seem to be random, and he targets people who are walking outside or standing/sitting by their homes or cars. Who is the killer? (UPDATE:) Person of interest identified in this... The post originally stated that the Phoenix Serial Shooter was arrested; however, at this time he had only been publically identified by law enforcement. Maryvale Serial Shooter

So my best friend from high school is getting married in July. I thought Tahoe would be a great spot for his bachelor party and he agreed. We are from Oregon so we like the outdoors. Tahoe seems like a good fit because we can enjoy the outdoors and go to Casinos. I have been to Tahoe a few times but always stay in Incline. These guys want to stay in South Lake. I was thinking we would rent a big house in South Lake hit Costco in Reno, and make a solid weekend out of it. Was looking for any tips or advise. I haven't partied in South lake and not sure where the best location would be for the house we are looking to rent. We plan on doing this June 28- July 1 so I need to book something soon! Thanks

Mt. Bachelor - Bend, Oregon
Kirkwood - South Lake Tahoe, California
Keystone - Colorado
I want to try to get a job at one of these mountains, and it will be a job where I'm riding 99% of the day. If anyone has any experience with any of these mountains, and/or info about the parks, I would love to know some pros/cons of them. I've been at Mt. Bachelor for 15 years, so I don't need much info on that... and I lived in Tahoe for one season, and loved it and rode Kirkwood a handful of times, but that was a few years ago. The snow in Tahoe was pretty bad also since it was ALWAYS sunny, but I remember powder days at Kirkwood were pretty epic
I want to leave Mt. Bachelor, and I mostly want to go to Keystone, but I've heard it's very hard to find housing, and when (if) I do, it's very expensive. I've never rode in Colorado before, so Keystone is what I am looking for the most info for.
I've checked other threads and browsed around, but I would just like some more direct info. Thanks guys!
My own pro/con list from what I know:
Mt. Bachelor - Bend, Oregon
PROS
*Tons of skiable terrain
*3-4 parks, superpipe, bordercross
*Well maintained parks, with features often changed around
*Frequent competitions
*Mostly all lifts are high speed quads
*When it does snow, it's amazing
*Free shuttle from town for employees
*Bend, OR is a cool, affordable ski town, with lots of outdoor activities
*Decent nightlife. Lots of bars downtown. Beer capital of the nation. A few clubs
*Long season (6'ish months)
CONS
*Often windy - Summit lift is rarely open
*Lava rocks
*Bored of riding this mountain (personal opinion)
Kirkwood - South Lake Tahoe, California
PROS
*When it does snow, the powder is amazing
*Tahoe is an amazing, affordable ski town with lots to do
*Super fun nightlife. Casinos are a blast to party at
*Parks were decent, from what I remember
CONS
*Too many sunny days - always slushy/icy snow
*A bit of a drive from Tahoe (but I heard there's a shuttle from Tahoe to Kirkwood?)
*Short season (4 1/2'ish months)
Keystone - Colorado
PROS
*Night riding?
*Access to various other mountains that I've heard good things about
*Lots of runs
*Nice park?
CONS
*Unaffordable? Hard to find a cheap place to rent?
*Short'ish season (5 months)
*According to this site Mt. Bachelor gets 150" more per year than Keystone, and Kirkwood gets 370" more than Keystone (I thought Colorado got a lot of snow?)
DISCLAIMER!!! I know the format of this post is hideous... I've never posted to Reddit before, so this was the best I could do. Sorry for the eye sore

I have lived in Reno Nevada for 8 years all together we lived here from 2002 to 2006 and currently have lived here from 2014 to currently. Things in Reno have changed it is a growing community city and with towns near by like Fernley, Sparks, Carson City, Sun Valley, Lemon Valley, Verdi, and Lake Tahoe there are a lot of different adventures a person could do in and around the area.
Reno has made some changes the RENO arch sign recently updated in the down town area, and lots of new building has taken and changed a few things in and around the Reno area. If your coming to visit here are my top 10 places to visit and things to do in Reno Nevada.
THE OUTLAW MICHEAL TOMSIK TOP 10 PLACES AND THINGS TO DO IN AND AROUND RENO NEVADA:
#10) Junkee Clothing and Exchange located on 960 South Virginia Street. This store has a lot of consignments in it you can literally find anything from A to Z in it and also is a great place to shop for clothing. The parking lot is a bit small however but this is a fun store to visit or shop at.
#9) The Basement located at 50 South Virginia Street. This was the old US Post Office it was remolded and a company called ELM Street took over the top part of the old Post Office. However if you look hard you will find the signs for The Basement. In the bottom part of the old Post Office it has some unique stores and shops.
#8) Grand Sierra Resorts Casino located at 2500 East 2nd Street. Out of all the casinos in Reno area in my option this is the best one by far. This casino has a lot to offer an outside driving range into a huge man made pond, go carts and a big swing ride. Recently the casino remodeled the pool and is adding an indoor ice arena along with bowling alley, movie theater, fun center, and a shopping mall. Lots of restaurants, night club, sports wagering and gambling available as well.Easy accesses of I-80 and 395 makes the location great as well. Also the Truckee River runs along the back side of the property and it has a large RV park.
#7) Scheels Sports Store located at 1200 Scheels Road in the Legend Shopping Mall. This store is awesome it has 2 levels and is full of sports stuff. It has an indoor Ferris Wheel, fresh and salt water fish tanks. A restaurant, and plenty of other fun stuff to play with and view. On the second floor it has a history by use of our Presidents whom all talk and move. This is a must see store.
#6) Sparks Marina located at 300 Howard Drive. The marina is awesome with a 77 acre lake that has a walkway all the way around it. There is a dog park, fishing, boating, and events held at the marina. There are several local restaurants, Legends Mall, casinos that are near by. Also there is an RV park near the marina as well. It is great for a family day out.
#5) National Auto Museum located at 10 Lake Street. If you love cars and history you will love this place. I had a great time walking through looking at all the old cars.
#4) Nevada State Train Museum located at 2180 South Carson Street. If you have a love for trains this is for you. They also offer a train ride during certain times of the year.
#3) Sierra Safari Zoo located at 12200 North Virginia Street. Since 1989 this very small zoo has operated under the radar of many people. The kids will love it however.
#2) Virginia City located in the mountains just outside of Reno Nevada and Carson City. This city has a long history in Nevada. You will find tons of shopping, food, history and events being held.
This is a nice drive through the mountains and is great place for a day out.
#1) Lake Tahoe located in the mountains between Carson City and the California Border. Lake Tahoe is great in the summer or winter with ski resorts, casinos, shopping, boating, and other events held around the lake. There is RV and camp grounds, and is a very popular spot for locals and tourist alike.

Heading up to Tahoe this weekend. Plan on playing Friday and Saturday probably just some 1-2 1-3 and maybe some 2-5. Can anyone tell me what to expect as far as action goes and if there are always games running. Also, what is the best casino to play in south lake tahoe?

Hello, My friends and I will be staying in South Lake Tahoe on the California side, approximately 5 miles from the casinos. Since we'll be drinking, we are trying to figure out the cheapest/best way to get to and from the casinos at night. I was thinking the people of /tahoe might have some good advice for me. Thanks
