3.0 out of 5 stars A lot of information, but sometimes out-of-date., July 11, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Foghorn Outdoors: Tahoe (Paperback)

Very complete guide to the entire Lake Tahoe area; but, oftentimes I found the details out-of-date (i.e. prices, hours, etc.). Nonetheless, it's a great guide to activity options and provides a wide range of lodging and restaurants.

4.0 out of 5 stars Good choice no matter what your interest in going to Tahoe, August 23, 1998

By A Customer

This review is from: Foghorn Outdoors: Tahoe (Paperback)

This lenghty volume covers all the options at Tahoe, from gambling to hiking, skiing to boating. Includes coverage of much of the surrounding area.

1.0 out of 5 stars a complete waste of money, February 9, 2000

By A Customer

This review is from: Foghorn Outdoors: Tahoe (Paperback)

A hefty volume with a hefty price, that has more paper than information. Much of what is contained in this book is out of date and therefore useless; this includes hours, phone numbers, addresses, out-of-business businesses, local events, and almost anything that might be of interest. It is also poorly organized. Sad to say, we spent a pretty penny on this one, and lugged around the tome, wasting both time and money. In hindsight, I am sure we would have been better off getting one of the many slimmer guidebooks from a host of other publishers available on the market, or even picking up the countless freebies available all around Tahoe. I would strongly caution against wasting good money on this one.
