👍👍 Secret Cove Nude Beach is a nice beach on the East shore of Lake Tahoe. It is only a short half mile or so hike from the parking area to the beach.

Kings Canyon Waterfalls
Park
👍 I liked it, but i wouldn't put this on a must visit list. We only went to the lower falls, which is a nice quick hike. I would say that a family with toddlers could do the hike (0.3 miles each way, easy path). The falls are tiny, with no swimming hole (just little falls). There are many others trail...

😠 We ordered tamales and requested a special order. We went to pick them up on a specific time and day. When we got there, our special order was not ready. We were asked to come back 2 hours later for the ones we ordered. She offered us another option. We reluctantly took the tamales that were re...

👍👍 Update - It's been over a year and 20+ pizza pies later. Deliciously consistent and never disappoints. My girls mad I don't share my crust with her. So good I put it through a photoshoot before I take a bite of the first slice. So good I always burn the roof of my mouth with a road slice. So good a...
