Finding Good Real Estate in Lake Tahoe
Beautiful and beckoning, Lake Tahoe is an ideal home or vacation area, with a wealth of real estate on its shores. Lake Tahoe is one of the highest, deepest, and largest lakes in the US. Pristine waters, myriad activities, and a warm, welcoming community create an exquisite area to live or vacation.
The entire Lake Tahoe area is sublime; real estate is truly beautiful and there are choice homes for sale in all budget ranges. Like any area, there are places that are more expensive, and those that are less so.
Lake Tahoe is divided into living communities spread throughout the lake area; some of the prettiest locations are in North Lake Tahoe and South Lake Tahoe.
South Lake Tahoe and its real estate
South Lake Tahoe sits on the border of California and Nevada at the base of the Sierra Nevada Mountains. The area is predominantly residential and the city is located on the southern shore of Lake Tahoe, bordering Stateline, Nevada. There are a number of casinos in the area as well as a world class ski resort, Heavenly Valley Mountain Resort. The largest ski area in California and Nevada, the resort town is a big draw for visitors and real estate seekers alike.
South Lake Tahoe is immensely beautiful; better yet, the real estate levels vary, so anyone can find something suitable. In general, the south side of Lake Tahoe is less expensive, but this isn't always the case.
Your best bet is to find a realtor who knows the area well and can give you tips on the areas that fall within your budget.
North Lake Tahoe and its real estate
North Lake Tahoe is as beautiful as its neighbor, South Lake Tahoe. The amazingly blue, pristine waters are especially tempting, and it tends to be a bit warmer than its southern counterpart. This is due to the fact that the northern part of Lake Tahoe generally gets less snow than other areas.
Despite this, there is plenty of snow, as evidenced by such ski resorts as Squaw Valley, home of the 1960 Winter Olympics, Alpine Meadows, Diamond Peak, and Northstar. These areas tend towards steeper prices, but are enviable locations to find vacation rentals or homes.
Real estate prices in North Lake Tahoe vary, but are generally higher than in the south, though this really depends on the specific community.
One of the least expensive areas of this part of Lake Tahoe is Truckee, a sweet, smaller town on the north shores that is growing into a coveted location. Amenities like golf courses, easy access to Lake Tahoe, and shorter drives to other areas are the big draw for this little town..

Lake Tahoe Lodging Invites You To Say "GOOD-BYE PONDEROSA"
It was a time when families would gather around the television set every Sunday evening to watch the exciting lives of Hoss, "Little Joe," Adam and Ben Cartwright on their 600,000 acre ranch known as the Ponderosa in post civil-war Virginia City, Nevada. With a theme song that anyone could hum, the hit NBC western series "Bonanza" enjoyed a successful fourteen-year run from 1959 to 1973, and was second only to Gunsmoke as the longest running and most successful western on the air.As the first western in television history to be broadcast in color, it was eventually dubbed into twelve languages for international broadcast and reruns for generations to follow. The show and its cast sadly may be gone, but the "world" of Bonanza still remains nestled in the tall Ponderosa trees of Incline Village, Nevada. But as all good things must end, the world-famous Ponderosa Ranch will also fade into the sunset, when it is sold to private ownership next month. "The Ponderosa Ranch is a trip back in...
