We highly suggest flying into Reno and renting a car as the lake is not walkable. Depending on where you stay (either our hotel blocks or an Airbnb), the drive is only about 30-40 mins from the airport. Another option is the North Lake Tahoe Express which will take you from the Reno International Airport to North Lake Tahoe.
Sacramento is also another great airport option. The drive is longer and will take about two hours.
We have a room hold at several of the condos at the Village at Northstar. This is a great location - only 20 mins from the lake and 20 mins to the wedding location. We stayed here when we were looking at venues! There are 4 condo buildings on the property with several restaurants, shops and a few bars. The afterparty will be here at Rubicon's Pizza Co. Click the link below to see the exact rooms on our hold available at the bottom.
We have a room block at this unique boutique hotel. It is located in the heart of Downtown Truckee with great shops, bars and restaurants. The Friday and Saturday rate is $399 per room/per night + taxes/waived resort fee. Sunday rate $299 per room/per night + taxes/ waived resort fee. The rate is offered 3 days pre and 3 days post main block dates. The $299 rate is good for Wed/Thurs/Mon/Tues.
We also suggest renting houses on VRBO & AirBnB. Being closer to the lake is a great experience and will still allow a pick up location centrally located for the shuttle to the wedding venue. Side note - VRBO has fewer fees and more flexible cancellation policies than Airbnb. Please know that there is a little bit of tension between locals and visitors, and be mindful not to exacerbate the situation by being loud or rude.
Lake Tahoe has TART Connect which offers curb-to-curb, on-demand service, for any trip within the defined service areas (check app for zones). North Lake Tahoe has limited Uber and taxi service.
