The West Shore of Lake Tahoe is between Tahoe City and Emerald Bay. Here you can experience the best of Lake Tahoe recreation and spectacular scenery. With options such as water skiing, snow skiing, hiking, biking, camping, fishing and rock climbing, everyone will find an activity to suit their lifestyle. Some of the more popular sites to see in the summertime when visiting or living on the West Shore are Sugar Pine Point State Park, Vikingsholm Castle in Emerald Bay, the Tahoe Maritime Museum, and Meeks Bay. Popular resorts for winter time activities along the West Shore are Homewood and Granlibakken.
Housing on the West Shore is just as varied as the activities, with properties ranging from your typical “Tahoe Cabin” to a luxurious condominium complex. Also found on the West Shore are many types of subdivisions, perfect for either the local resident or the second home owner who wants to become a part of the fascinating natural beauty of Lake Tahoe. Each development has different amenities, so having an agent familiar with the area is a necessity when looking to purchase a home here.
Homewood / Tahoma
August 20, 2008
Homewood and Tahoma lie on Lake Tahoe’s West shore. Further North is Homewood, which features the Homewood Ski Mountain. Many claim that Homewood’s snow is the best around, as it has won the title for “Best Powder” several times! Although it is one of the oldest ski areas around the Lake, it remains a local’s treasure – with a lot of tree skiing, and plenty of powder, the skier “in the know” can find powder stashes many days after a storm!
Tahoma is further to the West, and one of the last major communities before headed down to the South Shore. Both Homewood and Tahoma get lots of snow in the wintertime, and they both have some of the oldest homes in this area of the Lake. Truly the “Old Tahoe” area, the West Shore offers a special feel and gorgeous Lake views.
