Tahoe City – North

Like its’ neighbor to the north, Kings Beach, Tahoe City is home to a large population of Locals.  Located at the headwaters of the Truckee River (Lake Tahoe’s only outlet,) Tahoe City activities revolve around snow and everything one can do in, on or around it. Enjoy four-star dining, homegrown coffee shops, shopping, galleries, and a leisurely stroll through town on the lake-view boardwalk. Once a destination for travelers to and from the Comstock Lode (c.1870’s) that featured a narrow-gauge railway stop and the steamer S.S. Tahoe, Tahoe City’s century-old heritage, historic sites (some claim haunted) and museums provide much history to explore as well.

Four season activities await every visitor. Jog, walk, bike, or skate the paved trail system along the lake or soak up the summer sun at Commons Beach.  Take advantage of the cross-country ski trails and quick access to one of the many world-class ski resort in the area.  Or just enjoy some if the community events including outdoor concerts, movies at the beach and the seasonal Farmers’ Market.

Most homes in Tahoe City are within walking distance to the elementary school and downtown. Most homes here are older and many are rented to locals. Homes and rare legal duplexes are mixed in quality and upkeep and are in the affordable range.
