It is within easy walking distance of all shops and restaurants in Tahoe City. Save Mart Supermarket (formerly Lucky’s and Albertson’s) is a 5 minute walk away. Truckee River Raft trips begin across the street. There are some great bike trails that go along the Truckee River, and West Shore. Tahoe Rim Trail access is across the street for mountain biking or hiking. One of our favorite hikes is a small trail that goes along the south side of the Truckee River (good for fishing too). Alpine Meadows and Squaw Valley Ski Resorts are a short 15 minute drive from the townhouse. Homewood Ski Area is less than 10 minutes away

You can play tennis on one of the courts and swim in the heated swimming pool during the summer. The tennis courts and the pool have been completely remodeled. Your kids can ride their scooters and bikes on paved trails throughout the development or play games on the huge lawn. Your whole family will love hanging out at the private beach and pier, swimming, playing volleyball on the sand court next to the water or catching crawdads from the end of the pier. In the winter, step out of the back of the house and enjoy snow play or cross country skiing.
