Where Passion for the Lake Meets Community

Tahoe Waterman’s Landing

Tahoe's Local Beach Club

Tucked along the pristine shoreline of Carnelian Bay, Tahoe Waterman’s Landing is North Lake Tahoe’s best-kept secret — a year-round beach club where authenticity, adventure, and community come together. More than just a café, paddle sport outfitter, and youth summer camp hub, it’s a lifestyle rooted in community, nature, and timeless Tahoe tradition.

Whether starting your morning with an artisan organic espresso, launching a paddleboard into crystal-clear waters, or watching your kids thrive in our thoughtfully curated youth programs — Waterman’s is where locals gather and life slows down.

This is your invitation to experience Tahoe the way it was meant to be lived: casually elegant, effortlessly connected, and always lakeside.

THE STORY

Tahoe Waterman is a family own lifestyle brand founded in 2010 by local athletes Anik and Jay Wild, Along side Kina, Anik's sister, they operate a unique beach club on the shores of Lake Tahoe. "To have the opportunity to work with your family and build something amazing together is quite magical. At Waterman's, we strive to actively improve the lives of others one day at a time."

THE BEACH

Watermans Landing beach, formally known as Patton Landing, is one of six public beaches owned by the Tahoe Conservancy. This three-acre, dog-friendly pebbly beach is quickly becoming Lake Tahoe's human-powered watersports headquarters. The property offers a free, nonmotorized "car top" boat launch site. The site is also served by restrooms, and features include accessible pathways, picnic tables, and a small (23-car) parking facility. In addition to their benefits for recreation and as public gathering spaces, the Conservancy undertook restorations at these properties that resulted in improvements to water quality, wildlife habitat, and open space. Tahoe Waterman is a partner with Tahoe Conservancy and concessionaires maintaining Patten Landing "Waterman" beach and it's facilities.

SPECIAL EVENTS

If you're looking for an exclusive special event space on the shore of Lake Tahoe. I'd recommend checking out our venue, one of the few Lake Front locations for small group gatherings with Lake Tahoe as the centerpiece and massive granite peaks as the backdrop. An inspiring vibe for productivity or connection. Whether you are scheduling a business meeting, a wedding, or a small group event.
