We have a new shuttle pick up spot. Follow the signs down Tunnel Creek Road after riding the Flume Trail to the Tunnel Creek Station near the old Ponderosa Ranch. Our shuttle returns you to your vehicle at Spooner Lake in the Lake Tahoe Nevada State Park. Shuttle rides include an ice cold drink on the ride back and air conditioning in the plush shuttle van. On cold days hot tea, coffee, and cider warm the body. Lets see, ten miles of uphill on a crowded highway with no shoulder back to Spooner or taking the plush shuttle........you make the call.

Here are pictures of the signs to our new shuttle stop and a picture of the shuttle stop.
