Although Lake Tahoe is best known as a winter ski destination, August is its busiest tourism month, and it isn’t difficult to see why. With a sparkling blue lake, clear skies, and warm breezes, it’s the perfect place to close out summer. At the Hyatt Regency Lake Tahoe Resort in Incline Village, Nevada, we embraced the summer sun at the only resort on the lake with its own private sandy beach. Be sure to walk at sunset; the position of Hyatt’s beach is just right to have Tahoe’s longest-lasting view of the sun dropping to the mountains. Once that cross-lake breeze gave too much of a chill, we joined fellow guests around a beachfront firepit for old-fashioned ghost stories and deep-lake legends—a perfect end to a legendary evening.— Erin Vorhies
