Neighborhood highlights

Located on a quiet road surrounded by a beautiful forested area, this bright home is in an excellent location for enjoying everything Lake Tahoe has to offer. In the winter months the home places you near some of the best slopes in the area with both Alpine Meadows Ski Resort and Tahoe Ski Resort a 20-minute drive away, Tahoe Nordic Cross Country Center 10 minutes away, and Homewood Ski Resort just 8 minutes away. If you are looking for some great XC skiing or snowshoeing, you are just minutes away from the popular trails at Paige Meadows.

During the summer months, head down to Tahoe Park, a private beach/park on Lake Tahoe only .5 miles away. Guests staying at this home have HOA access to Tahoe Park where you can enjoy a pier, pebble beach, grassy lawns, children’s play area, horseshoes, bocci ball courts, volleyball courts, great swimming, and BBQ areas. This park is next to the famous Sunnyside Restaurant and Marina, where you can find great food and watercraft rentals. You are also less than half a mile from the Lake Tahoe Bike Path, or if some high alpine hiking is what you are into, Paige Meadows is only a 3-minute drive up the hill where you will find beautiful meadows lined with a vast network of trails that connect you to the Pacific Crest Trail and the Tahoe Rim Trail.

For those in your group looking for a little less outdoor time, Tahoe City is less than a 10-minute drive where you will find many cute boutique shops, a wide variety of bars and restaurants, farmers markets, and live music. The West Shore Market is also just down the street where you will find great coffee and sandwiches for the day, followed up by some delicious flatbread pizza beer/wine, and bingo at night! When it comes to a great location for everything Lake Tahoe has to offer, this house cannot be beaten!
