Lake Tahoe, California

Lake Tahoe has been a favorite tourist destination for many, and it’s easy to understand why. The freshwater lake, the second deepest in the entire United States, sits between California and Nevada, and was formed over 2 million years ago during the Ice Ages. Weather summer or winter, this spot is quite popular all year round, with over 3 million visitors annually, but it’s said that ‘the sun shines on Lake Tahoe during 75 percent of the year,’ a major plus, if you ask us.
