Learn about the Tahoe Basin and all it has to offer at USDA Forest Service’s Taylor Creek Visitor Center. The interpretive center is typically open May through October, with grounds open all year round for recreation. In the fall, typically in October, many of Lake Tahoe's kokanee salmon return to Taylor Creek to spawn.
