MS Dixie & Tahoe Queen - Lake Tahoe

Cruisin’ on the Dixie, Lake Tahoe.
A trip to Lake Tahoe is not complete without a cruise upon its crystal clear blue water. And no one has a prouder tradition of offering the
widest variety of entertaining cruises on this magnificent alpine lake than the cruise experts
at Lake Tahoe Cruises and Zephyr Cove Resort & Marina . Between the two, we
feature the two most classic and storied
vessels on the lake - the Tahoe Queen and
M.S. Dixie II.

Tahoe Queen - Departing from Ski Run
Marina in the heart of South Lake Tahoe, CA
and operated by Lake Tahoe Cruises, the classic
paddlewheeler Tahoe Queen hosts Family Fun with Tahoe Tessie, Tales of Tahoe by Mark Twain, sunset buffet, weekend dinner/dance, and sightseeing cruises as well as our popular North Shore ski shuttle and après ski cruise.

M.S. Dixie II - Departing from historic Zephyr Cove, NV, just minutes north of Stateline on Hwy. 50, and operated by Zephyr Cove Resort & Marina, the M.S. Dixie II has been voted “Best Boat Cruise” at Tahoe for ten years running and hosts a historic breakfast buffet, scenic champagne brunch, dinner, dinner/dance and sightseeing cruises.

Specialty Cruises - From a night on the water listening to cool jazz or an afternoon of wine-tasting, to marveling at spectacular 4th of July fireworks or ringing in the New Year, we plan a variety of Specialty Cruises throughout the year. Click here to learn more.

Private Charters for Weddings & Groups - We also offer fantastic private charters aboard our fabled flagship paddlewheelers - Tahoe Queen and M.S. Dixie II - as well as aboard our smaller, more intimate craft - the Tahoe Paradise and Tahoe Princess, operated by Lake Tahoe Cruises. So if you’re putting together your own special gathering on the water, we’re the people you want onboard.

Ski Shuttle - In winter, the Tahoe Queen hosts the world’s only aqua ski shuttle - departing from Ski Run Marina, taking skiers and snowboarders to and from Squaw Valley USA and featuring an onboard après ski party.

    Hi! I was searching for Tahoe Cool Water on Facebook and I found your site. I am part of the local band Cool Water. We play around town at the Ketch and Beacon and one week per month on the Dixie. You can find us at Tahoe Cool Water on myspace and on Facebook. I am trying to develop my cyber fan base and since I happened upon your site I would like to join and or communicate. Thanks Dory Smith
