Hillside city neighborhood with dense homes and colorful Victorian-style houses in the foreground.

Sunnyside

A friendly West Shore stretch just south of Tahoe City, known for its marina, lodge, and easy access to the slopes.

Welcome to Sunnyside

Sunnyside sits about two miles south of Tahoe City on Highway 89, which makes it one of the easiest places on the West Shore to live a full lake life. You are close to town, close to the water, and close to the mountains.

What to Love:

What I like about Sunnyside is the balance. It feels like a small lakeside neighborhood, yet it is minutes from the shops and restaurants of Tahoe City.

Things to Do:

The Sunnyside Restaurant & Lodge and its marina are a local favorite for a lakeside dinner. The West Shore Bike Path runs right through the area, and Palisades Tahoe and Homewood are both a short drive away.

Schools:

Sunnyside is served by the Tahoe Truckee Unified School District, with Tahoe Lake Elementary, North Tahoe Middle School, and North Tahoe High School.

Amenities of Sunnyside Real Estate:

Homes include lakefront houses, cabins on the hillside, and condos. Many properties have a view of the lake or the forest, and the neighborhood stays comfortably low-key.

If you want lake living with Tahoe City close by, Sunnyside is a good place to start, and I would love to help.
