Lake on a state line (5)

I believe the answer is:

tahoe

(Other definitions for tahoe that I've seen before include "the Nevada/California border area" , "Nevada/California lake" , "Lake/desert resort on the California-Nevada border" , "Lake in Sierra Nevada mountains" , "US lake" .)

I've seen this clue in The Wall Street Journal.
