Vikingsholm
a 1929 Scandinavian mansion above Fannette Island, the lake’s only island
Vikingsholm is one of the places Roamward flags on the Lake Tahoe Loop because it gives the drive its texture: a 1929 Scandinavian mansion above Fannette Island, the lake’s only island. Use it as a planned pull-over instead of letting the route become a blur between towns.
