Before the white man came, Lake Tahoe was the sacred center around the world for the Washoe Indians. These gentle people lived at that time as hunter-gatherers moving with the seasons from the Carson Valley to the Tahoe area for fishing, hunting, and seed gathering. The Taylor Creek area was exactly their summer camp, and from it they took fish plus animals, which can keep them alive during the long, cold winters. After white men came for ranching as well as lumbering, the Washoe People started to work in the camps and mills of this area for cash wages, changing their lifestyle to assimilate along with their new neighbors. Camp Richardson hopes some of the Lake Tahoe history and nostalgia of this very special place will bring you back to Camp Richardson to enjoy the beautiful lakefront setting, comfortable facilities, wealth of activities, and its great staff.
