Don't know when and where you are staying so here's a variety. Tahoe is a great spot for hiking and fishing too.

Raft down the Truckee River. It's really fun on a warm day. Stop along the way and picnic. There are some areas that you can stop.

Tram up to High Camp in Squaw Valley. There is a pool and giant jacuzzi at the top as well as a year round ice rink for skating. Also has a large bar . Lots of lounge chairs around the pool and spa.

Take a ride on the Meteor. The speed ferry that leaves from the Marina at South Shore and lands in Tahoe City. Second year of operation.

Take the new gondola from near the Embassy Suite in South shore up to the viewiong area. Can picnic up there as there are tables and chairs/benches. Then take it to the top and hike around. Great views.

Spend a day at the beach at Meeks Bay. Nice sandy beach on the west side. Has a snack bar with grilled food. They also rent paddle boats, etc.

Visit historic Chambers Landing on the west side. Go during happy hour for a chambers punch.

Visit the Historic Tallac site in Camp Richardson. More info: http://www.r5.fs.fed.us/heritage/047.HTM

Visit Sugar Pine and take a tour of the Mansion.

Thunderbird Lodge is open Wed & Thurs for tours. $22 for adults, must make reservations 1 800 go tahoe.

Have fun!!!

Wow Lenore, good eyes, I didn't even notice this. Guess Kim pulled it back up from the depths! I personally would not spend any time in Kings Beach or Ponderosa Ranch for what it's worth. So much more to choose from!
