Neighborhood highlights

This charming cottage is in an unbeatable location for enjoying all that Tahoe has to offer. Located just half a mile from Secline beach you can easily walk down to this pet-friendly beach and enjoy the volleyball courts and BBQ areas. Or head over to King’s Beach just a mile from the home and spend the day on the big sandy beaches where you will find every variety of watercraft available to rent for some water fun! This funky little beach town area has plenty of entertainment and dining options for you to enjoy with a wide variety of restaurants to dine at, cute boutiques and a farmer's market for shopping, and free concerts that happen in the summer. If there is a golfer in your group they will love the fact that the home is only a two-minute drive away from the Brockway Golf Club course. In the winter the golf course is open for XC skiing, sledding, snowshoeing, and dog walking. You are also only 15 minutes from Northstar ski resort with the added bonus that the location of the house will keep you away from the ski traffic through Kings Beach. If you are looking for XC trails you are less than a 10 min drive to the North Tahoe Regional park, or if you are feeling extra adventurous you can access their trail system from Tiger Ave just above the house. This same trail system is great for hiking and biking in the summer. With its easy access to town, ski resorts, golfing, and the lake, this cabin is a great home base for the ultimate Tahoe getaway any time of the year.
