Zephyr-Cove is a census-designated place, or village, located on the east shore of Lake Tahoe, Nevada. As of the 2010 census, the population was 565 full-time residents. Prior to 2010, it was part of the Zephyr Cove-Round Hill Village census-designated place. Zephyr Cove is known for its pristine mountain/lake scenery and access to all the adventures and activities for which Lake Tahoe is known. From Zephyr Cove, you can board a paddle wheeler for a tour of Emerald Bay, rent a wooded cabin or park your RV at the local campground. Zephyr Cove is also home to historic cabins and charming hotels, fine dining and a mile of private beach for walking and exploring. In the wintertime, it makes a great base camp for skiing the nearby slopes. Lake Tahoe is known for its world-class skiing, golf, fishing, hiking, mountain biking and camping. The freshwater lake lies at an elevation of 6,225 feet in the Sierra Nevada Mountains and straddles the border of Nevada and California. It's the largest alpine lake in North America and is known for its incredible beauty and both outdoor and indoor adventures. The adjoining towns of Stateline, Nevada and South Lake Tahoe offer large casinos with 24-hour gambling, live music and shows, fine dining and shopping. This area is the "hub" of Lake Tahoe, while Zephyr Cove is on the more quiet side of the lake. All of Lake Tahoe, including Zephyr Cove, is a true nature lover's dream and world-class vacation destination.
