How overcrowded is Lake Tahoe? And what are they doing about too many tourists?The forecast for Lake Tahoe this weekend is 85 degrees and sunny, which would seem to make it a perfect destination for Sacramento Valley residents baking in high temperatures reaching well into the 100s. Crowds are predicted, too. How large of crowds? So many people are expected to head to the 72 miles of shoreline around the picturesque lake that travel guide Fodor’s in November put Lake Tahoe on its list of places not to visit, The Sacramento Bee reported. A Reno Gazette Journal headline screamed: “Fodor’s got it right: Tahoe needs a break.” “Fodor’s No List 2023” came out a week before the region’s ski season kicked off. Although the “don’t go” warning for 2023 was a blow to local tourism officials, long-time Tahoe residents say the news came as no surprise. The number of complaints about the region being overrun by tourists is growing, according to the Associated Press.
