ABOUT THE AREA Conveniently located two miles south of Tahoe City, you'll find the quintessential Tahoe neighborhood of Sunnyside. This heavily wooded section on Lake Tahoe's west shore features old Tahoe-style homes and classic cabins. Homes in this neighborhood are all centrally located between Homewood and Tahoe City.
Just down the road you'll find Sunnyside Resort and Marina and William Kent Shoreline. William Kent Beach is situated in a wooded setting and offers picnic tables and grills with views across Lake Tahoe of the eastern shoreline. Next door, Sunnyside Resort is a favorite year-round lakeside dining option.
During the ski season, you are less than fifteen minutes from Homewood Mountain Resort or travel just twenty minutes to Palisades Tahoe (formally known as Squaw Valley/Alpine Meadows) which is the largest ski resort in Lake Tahoe. Palisades Tahoe has a shuttle that runs continuously between the base area of Olympic Valley & Alpine Meadows when both resorts are open for operations, weather, and traffic permitting.

Enjoy Lakefront Mid-century Modern with Million Dollar Views!!!
Just a few minutes out of Tahoe city this great find of a home is down a private drive and away from any street noise … breathtaking 180 degree unobstructed views …. Floor to ceiling windows , fireplace and a gorgeous great room… make this a family favorite ! I can't thank the owners enough for being pet friendly so we could bring our dog and all be together….. Also just one step to get into the home made it perfectly safe for our 92 year old Mom with a master suite downstairs with easy access … Tons of early morning sunshine with the water looking like diamonds makes having your coffee and breakfast outside a must!! Needless to say we have an amazing time here Thank you!!!
