Tallac After Dark returns to South Lake Tahoe in October
Evening tours explore Spiritualism and reported supernatural experiences at the historic estates.
Tallac After Dark is scheduled for six evenings in October at the Tallac Historic Site in South Lake Tahoe. Tours are listed for Oct. 2, 3, 4, 9, 10 and 11, 2026, beginning at 7 p.m. Visitors will start at the Baldwin Estate before walking across the grounds to the Pope House.
The program looks at the Spiritualism movement in the United States and accounts of unusual experiences reported at the Pope and Baldwin properties. About 45 minutes to an hour of the tour takes place inside the Pope House, which has no heat. The visit ends there.
The program is intended for guests 12 and older, and children younger than 12 cannot attend. The meeting location is the Tallac Museum Courtyard at 1 Heritage Way. October nights can be cold, and the parking area does not have street lighting, so the event information recommends warm clothing and a flashlight. More information is available from the museum at 530-544-7383.

Evenings at the lodge now end on the sand: s'mores kits at the front desk, blankets by the door, and the lake going quiet at dusk.
Lakeside rooms with a private deck, a fire pit on the beach, and coffee at sunrise.
