The Nevada-California state border runs directly through the middle of this boutique Crystal Bay resort, making it a genuine geographic landmark.

Positioned at 2 Stateline Road adjacent to Crystal Bay Club, it draws visitors seeking a historic, upscale North Shore experience distinct from the larger South Shore complexes.
Lake Tahoe straddles the Nevada-California border at an elevation of 6,225 feet in the Sierra Nevada mountain range. The Nevada side of the lake — specifically the community of Stateline on the South Shore, and Crystal Bay and Incline Village on the North Shore — hosts several casino-hotels that exploit the unique positioning of sitting just across the state line from California’s gambling-free resort towns. The Tahoe casino market offers one of the most scenically distinctive gaming settings in the United States, combining high-altitude mountain resort amenities with full-service casino operations.
The South Shore casino cluster in Stateline, Nevada is the more developed of the two Lake Tahoe casino districts. Three casino-hotels sit within a few hundred yards of each other along Highway 50 at the Nevada-California state line, all operated by Caesars Entertainment.
All three South Shore Caesars properties are walkable from each other. Visitors with Caesars Rewards status can earn and redeem across all three with a single account.
The North Shore casino district is more intimate and lower-key than the South Shore cluster. Crystal Bay sits directly on the state line between Nevada and Placer County, California, on the north side of the lake.
From Reno, the South Shore is approximately 60 miles via US-395 south to US-50 west, a 60- to 90-minute drive depending on weather. The North Shore is approximately 35 miles from Reno via I-80 west to SR-267. From the San Francisco Bay Area, the South Shore is roughly 3.5 hours via I-80 east through Sacramento and up US-50. Reno-Tahoe International Airport is the nearest major airport for both shores. South Lake Tahoe Airport (TVL) in California provides limited service.
Winter road conditions on US-50 and SR-89 frequently require tire chains from November through April. The Nevada-side casino hotels offer year-round gaming that makes them year-round destinations regardless of ski conditions.
