Tahoe Vista
One of the smaller towns in the Lake Tahoe region nestled right up against the lakeshore lies Tahoe Vista. Notorious for its cozy lodging options such as B&Bs, mom and pop motels, and high-end fractional ownerships. Homes here are within walking distance of a public beach and range from old Tahoe rustic cottages to lakefront estates and accommodate all lifestyles.
Tahoe Vista is a favorite for outdoor junkies, with kayaking from one of the hidden beaches to motorized excursions from the new Tahoe Vista Recreation Area boat launch facility. For land lovers, the nearby North Tahoe Regional Park sports year-round trailheads for mountain biking, snowshoeing, cross-country skiing, a disc golf course, and nature trails. Tahoe Vista is a short drive from Ski resorts Northstar and Diamond Peak.
