Description: Harvey's is, of course, a huge casino right on the Nevada side of the Nevada/California state line. If you want to ask the concierage about babysitting services in Tahoe, you can go to the casino one evening (there is also a Harrah's and a Caesar's within a block of each other!) for gambling or a floor show. There are lots of slots, tables, sportsbooks, etc.... HOWEVER, we did not do this. We were on a family vacation, and we went to Harvey's solely because it did offer something fun for our kid, too.
On the bottom floor of Harvey's is a huge arcade. As we would have done for ourselves had we been in the casino gambling, we set a spending limit for our son. We gave him $10.00 and let him play what he liked as my husband and I wagered with each other over the air hockey table. We were actually impressed that he was smart enough to play the quarter games that lasted longer rather than the $1.00 games that ate his money quickly!
This is a fun place to be, inside and warm, after a day on the slopes. And what kid doesn't like video games? There is also a Hard Rock Cafe in Harvey's if you want to grab a bite to eat along with several other restaurants. There are even some nice shops to peruse.
We did not go to another casino, but I was told Harrah's also has an arcade.
