The Beach Retreat & Lodge at Tahoe is a hotel wedding venue located in South Lake Tahoe, California. This venue is open all year, allowing couples to gather with their loved ones and host the wedding of their dreams regardless of the season. During your stay, you will feel a sense of peace wash over you as you gaze out onto the sparkling waters of Lake Tahoe. While the setting in itself is utterly breathtaking, the venue also offers couples and their guests the opportunity to enjoy a variety of activities. This includes boating, hiking, kayaking, and more.

At Beach Retreat & Lodge at Tahoe, couples will have three main venue options to choose from which can accommodate up to 180 guests. Your first option is the Outdoor Tented Special Event Area. This beachfront tent is situated right on the beach, allowing you to experience Lake Tahoe up close while staying protected from the covered area. Another option available is the Lakeview Conference Center. This indoor space is complete with lavish furnishings and stunning panoramic views of Lake Tahoe in all of its beauty. The conference center is ideal for large gatherings with plenty of room for seated guests, a dance floor, and live entertainment. As you dance into the night, you and your guests can gaze as the sun sets over the lake. The final venue area is the Boathouse on the Pier. This spot is perfect for smaller-sized wedding parties, rehearsal dinners, or receptions.

Best Beach wedding Venue

We chose this location because we could do beachfront wedding and still have an indoor reception. The views were breathtaking but more importantly, Chelsea, was so easy to work with. She was with us from planning to day off and always made sure we were good! Highly recommend Chelsea and the Beach Retreat.

Perfect Location for a September Wedding

We had our wedding at The Beach Retreat & Lodge at South Lake Tahoe on September 22 and it was absolutely perfect! The venue is beautiful, the staff is incredibly helpful and accommodating, and the food was delicious. We couldn't have asked for a better place to celebrate our special day.

Here are a few things we loved about The Beach Retreat & Lodge:
- We chose the beach ceremony and the beach tent reception for our 34 guests. The views were absolutely stunning. I would suggest getting a microphone and speaker. The waves of the lake overpowered our musician and officiant and it was hard for our guests to hear.
- The staff, especially Chelsea, was super helpful and accommodating throughout the process and wedding weekend.
- The food was amazing! We opted for the passed appetizers and buffet. Our guests were so impressed with the food, that they were still talking about it the next day.
- The location was perfect. It's close enough to the casinos, but far enough to enjoy the serene location. Our guests enjoyed the ease of being able to travel to all the beautiful sites.

We would highly recommend The Beach Retreat & Lodge to anyone looking for a picturesque and memorable wedding venue.

10/10: Can't recommend enough

My husband and I got married here this September and we cannot recommend it enough! Not only was the venue stunning (beach front ceremony), the staff was SO helpful. Chelsea, was so incredible!! She was communicative, flexible, and enthusiastic! The weather was absolutely perfect and the views were amazing. We seriously had the most magical wedding and will be back in the future for a stay :)

The Beach Retreat is a gorgeous place to get married or have a corporate party because you can either use their newly remodeled facility for outdoor/indoor use or you can use their beach and outdoor/tented location. The staff is amazing and the food is wonderful as we've had the privilege of eating here on a couple of different occasions. You can't beat the views either. We love DJing at this venue and know you will love this location too!!!
