Considering the Super 8 Lake Tahoe South in South Lake Tahoe?

A worthwhile drive by hartmany
Granted, I went during a very busy time (New Year's 05/06), I was told that, for traffic reasons, drive clockwise around the lake. We stayed in the southern part, and the traffic coming in from the CA side was terrible. Without much traffic, and with two stops for pictures, it took us about 1 3/4 hours by car, even driving slowly with snow chains.
Vikingsholm Castle and Fannette Island are popular attractions located at the west end of Emerald Bay. The castle is considered the finest example of Scandinavian architecture in the Western Hemisphere. Fannette Island is the only island in Lake Tahoe. It is a wonderful picture opportunity.
