TahoeSouth.com positions the region as a premier, memorable and adventurous travel destination through its “passions” — activities that visitors have rated highest including: skiing/snowboarding, golf, water activities, hiking/running, gaming, dining, nightlife, shopping, meetings, weddings and local culture.

Why Tahoe South?

While South Shore is long-held common vernacular for the area that encompasses the southern portion of the Lake, it includes both the city of South Lake Tahoe on the California side and Stateline on the Nevada side. “Tahoe” has to be in the name because, well, both are Tahoe, and “South” because it’s the sum of the whole and combines both sides.

Eye-catching artwork makes it abundantly clear that when it comes to visiting Lake Tahoe, the south side is definitely the wild side with its 24-hour gaming and cocktail-fueled nightlife, top-notch entertainment and adrenaline seeking outdoor recreation.

To plan a trip and discover the world-class destination in pursuit of your own wild side visit TahoeSouth.com.

The process to develop the site was a joint effort between multiple agencies and the Lake Tahoe Visitors Authority. Duncan/Channon of San Francisco spearheaded the Website strategy and design. While Noble Studios of Reno, Nev.  managed the development and content. The site was built on an ExpressionEngine2 platform, a flexible content management system that allows future creative growth and expansion to evolve with technology. Duncan/Channon collaborated with Underware type foundry to create a custom logotype for the new brand.
