Million for the Marsh/Upper Truckee River Restoration

Project Partners: California Tahoe Conservancy
Fundraising Goal: $1,000,000

Now that the former Motel 6 building, restaurant, and parking lot have been demolished from the Upper Truckee Marsh in South Lake Tahoe, planning is underway to bring this wetland back to life! 

Through our “Million for the Marsh” campaign, the Tahoe Fund is working to raise the first $1 million of private funds to help secure the public funds the California Tahoe Conservancy will need to restore this area and bring significant improvements to Lake Tahoe’s clarity. 

With your support, we can revive an entire section of the watershed, improve lake clarity, expand habitat, and help ensure long-term resilience for the Lake we all love. 

Learn more about demolition and acquisition of this site here.
