West Shore

Stretching from Tahoe City south to Emerald Bay, the West Shore of Lake Tahoe is known for its tranquil pace and natural beauty. Several unique communities dot this idyllic shore, including Sunnyside, Homewood, Tahoma, and Rubicon. Much of the West Shore’s activity is centered around a tradition of classic wooden boating and the iconic lakefront restaurants Sunnyside, West Shore Café, and Chamber’s Landing.

In the summer, the West Shore offers unparalleled access to remote areas of the high Sierra, miles of hiking and biking trails, and water sports. While the winter sees deep snow, superior backcountry skiing, and convenient access to Homewood, Alpine Meadows, and Palisades ski areas. A tight-knit community, the West Shore is home to many full-time and part-time residents, with many having longtime ties to the area who claim, “West Shore, best shore!”

The West Shore offers a full variety of real estate opportunities in all price ranges, styles, and settings, from lakefront estates with deepwater piers and hundreds of feet of private shoreline to luxury shared-ownership condominiums to wooded single-family neighborhoods.
