			Of course I've heard of Lake Tahoe and I've seen many Chevy Tahoe, but Lake Carmel didn't ring a bell, I had to google for it.
Anyway, never having been to Tahoe nor Carmel, my preference goes to Lake Zilvermeer, Mol, Belgium. There's also Keiheuvel, a smallish airfield, nearby.
There is a permanent sculpture exhibition. Nothing unusual except for the fact that it's a training site for a scuba diving school. The 
*exhibition is underwater* .
