Tahoe Island Real Estate

Tahoe Island is a beautiful residential area made up of two neighborhoods: Tahoe Island Drive and Tahoe Island Park. Located near the entrance to the Tahoe Keys, this area contains about 400 homes in a variety of sizes and styles, all boasting quick access to the lake and the outdoor recreation for which the area is known. The oldest homes in the area were built in the 1960, but you will find houses and condos constructed all throughout the decades since, including some new construction developments.

One of the features that draws many people to Tahoe Island is the topography. Because it is mostly level, winter conditions are no cause for concern, in contrast to some areas where streets and driveways are steep and present a challenge after the snow falls. Some lots also feature access to the sailing lagoon, a private dock, or walkability to wide open meadows.

If you live or vacation in Tahoe Island, you will enjoy convenient access to local shopping, dining, entertainment, and amenities. Hop on a bike trail to take a leisurely ride down to a beach, or take a walk through the beautifully scenic setting and enjoy peeks of the mountains and lake. This peaceful community is a local favorite, and after you visit we think you will see why.
