Gambling is legal on the Nevada side of Lake Tahoe. Casinos, each with a variety of [[slot machine]]s and [[Casino game#Table games|table games]] are available. Four are located on the South Shore in [[Stateline, Nevada|Stateline]], and four on the North Shore; three in [[Crystal Bay, Nevada|Crystal Bay]] and one in [[Incline Village, Nevada|Incline Village]].

When Nevada legalized gambling in 1931, the first casino at the lake had already been open for years. First built on the North Shore in Crystal Bay by Robert Sherman in 1926,<ref>{{cite book|last=Moe|first=Al W.|title=The Roots of Reno|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=evsHVs5xvhYC|year=2008|page=65|publisher=Al Moe |isbn=9781439211991}}</ref> the [[Cal Neva Lodge & Casino|Cal-Neva]] Lodge became the property of Norman Henry Biltz and was sold to Bill Graham and Jim McKay in 1929.

The Cal-Neva was rebuilt after a fire in 1937 and expanded several times, most noticeably in 1969 when the high-rise hotel was built. Along the way, [[Frank Sinatra]] owned the property in the early 1960s, shared his cabins with the likes of [[Sam Giancana]] and [[Marilyn Monroe]], and sold out at the height of the area's popularity.

Other casinos at the North Shore include the Crystal Bay Club, first built in 1937 as the Ta-Neva-Ho; the defunct [[Tahoe Biltmore]], and the Nugget. The Hyatt Regency is found at Incline Village.

At South Shore, [[Bill Harrah]] purchased the Stateline Country Club, which had stood since 1931 and built [[Harrah's Tahoe]]. Other casinos include [[Hard Rock Hotel and Casino (Stateline)|Hard Rock Hotel and Casino Lake Tahoe]], [[Harveys Lake Tahoe]], and [[Bally's Lake Tahoe]].
