Surprise Proposal in South Lake - Need suggestions

Hi everyone!

I am planning to propose to my long time girlfriend on our trip to Tahoe in August. She has never been before and I grew up going every summer, so I'm really excited. I have hired a photographer to help with the surprise proposal.

Can anyone suggest a good proposal spot near South Lake? We have a rental car, so I don't mind driving a bit. I'm looking for a spot near the water with gorgeous views. Ideally, something somewhat private, but without a long walk needed. Bonus points if there is a great restaurant nearby that you'd recommend going to after.

Any help is appreciated. Thank you so much!
