Hi Scott,
After 18 years of trips, each summer, to Reno/Tahoe, I would
recommend that you play most of your VP bankroll in Reno. There's
not much to play in South Lake Tahoe, and, IMO, NOTHING to play in
North Lake Tahoe. However, the drive around the North rim of the
Lake is spectacular! The South rim is glorious also. Sometimes the
North rim is closed in October.
Of a generally poor inventory, I believe that the Horizon has the
best vp in So. LT. Second I would put Harrah's, Third place a toss-
up between Harvey's and Caesar's.
Caesar's has a very good coffee shop (for breakfast). Both Harrah's
and Harvey's have excellent Steakhouse's and gourmet restaurants.
As to where to stay, I would choose Harrah's with a resounding
chorus of "no contest". Every room in Harrah's has TWO full baths.
All of their rooms (that I've seen) are large and nicely decorated,
If you score a room that overlooks the lake, it is a most beautiful
vista. Harrah's restaurants are very good, though I would take a
pass on the (IMO) ordinary buffet.
If you play regular dollar slots at all, I've been told by friends,
that Harrah's are by far the livliest. From observing, the happy
faces and excited shrieks of the slot players, I think there's some
credence to this. All in all, I'd definitly stay at Harrah's.
I've never been to the Crystal Bay Club, so I can't comment.
The last time I was at the Hyatt (about 2 years ago) it was a vp
wasteland.
Have a great time, get lots of royals, and be sure to post a nice
long TR when you return!

.........The last two nights staying at Lake Tahoe. I have a Casino
Rate at the Hyatt for $75.00 night, Harrah's is at $69.00 a night
(have not called them yet) and Caesar's is at $72.00 a night (have
not called them yet either). If you had only two nights in Tahoe
South Shore are North Shore? Has anybody been to the Crystal Bay
Club, and if so, what's it like?
Thanks for the information
