All rental reservations are scheduled to start in the early morning before 10:00am. Guests must arrive on-site for check-in no less than 15 minutes prior to the start time of scheduled rental for check-in and outfitting. Guests who miss their check-in time may loose their rental reservation as well as any deposit or fees associated with their rental reservation.

Guests who miss their scheduled rental reservation are welcome to book walk-up rentals on-site at the Sand Harbor Nevada State Park. If park access is not possible, guests can use the East Shore Express shuttle for entry to walk-in on the East Shore trail from Incline Village. Walk-up rentals are subject to availability. Guests who choose to book via walk-up should be prepared for longer wait-times. Initial deposit lost from advance reservations cannot be carried over or applied to walk-up bookings.

Guests who wish to access the park for walk-up rentals can do so by entering early with their own vehicle, taking the East Shore Express shuttle into the park or walking in on the East Shore trail from Incline Vilage, NV. Visitors are responsible for their own cost of parking and/or park entry as it is not included in the rental rate.

This option is best for visitors who wish to check the wind and/or weather before planning their day, can not enter the park early or will need to use public transportation for park entry. If guests are interested in late morning or afternoon rentals, this is the best method for you.
