Tessie’s Cocktails & Chords Blends Local Lore with Live Music and Mixology
Caesars Republic Lake Tahoe, formerly Harveys, continues its multi-phase $200 million transformation with the introduction of Tessie’s Cocktails & Chords, a cocktail lounge inspired by the legendary lake creature. Partnering with Clique Hospitality, the new venue will blend creative mixology, an extensive selection of beer and wine, and live music—all within an atmosphere that pays playful tribute to Lake Tahoe’s folklore.
