First off, I'd say that Tahoe stays a bit too cold for my blood, so I stay away, but there are times when you can slide on a wetsuit or drysuit and make it worth it. You can hit up Fallen Leaf, which is near camp richardson, but I'm not sure if the road out there is clear of snow yet; if so, make sure to drive out there real early in the morning, cuz the road is only wide enough for 1 and a boat is pushing it in some spots. Another place you can try is Boca or Stampede which is between Reno and Truckee off of hwy 80, both are nice, but can get crowded in the summer. Boca is more of a jet ski paradise and stampede has one cove that works out, but more than one boat in there can be trouble. Jackson meadows is aways north of truckee, off of 89, and is worth a drive. Quite beautiful and can be a bit chilly. You can head east and hit up lahoton, which is about 30min east of carson city on hwy 50. This is one of the warmest lakes in the area b/c of the sandy bottom and makes for easy camping due to the fact that you can camp right next to the water. This is just about it for the area, there are some other places but a bit more time on the road would be needed. Take care and maybe I'll see yall on the lake sometime. Markfromtexas
