ABOUT THE AREA
Located at the northern tip of Lake Tahoe, just west of the Nevada State border, is Kings Beach. Known for its outstanding public beach, kick back attitude and easy access to mountain resorts, Kings Beach is a spot travelers return to year after year. The North Tahoe Event Center often plays host to festivals, concerts and community events, and downtown Kings Beach boasts shopping and dining options open year round.

Kings Beach State Recreation Area is the flagship beach site in the North Tahoe area. With a lakefront stretch of 1,700 feet, it is the largest public access sandy beach on the North Shore of Lake Tahoe. Its south-facing aspect and a lake floor that gradually deepens makes this one of the warmest swimming areas on the Lake. A beautiful playground area overlooks the water and barbecue and picnic areas are available. The beach is adjacent to shops, restaurants and the North Tahoe Event Center.

In the winter, you are just ten minutes from Northstar California. There, enjoy access to almost 100 trails and over 3,000 skiable acres, impeccable grooming, incredible tree skiing, and enough variety to challenge every level of skier. Take advantage of world-class terrain parks, cross-country skiing, a youth Adventure Park, and a 9000 square-foot ice rink surrounded by fire pits and a rink side bar.

Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy
We had a great stay - the location is unbeatable with the direct beach access, and the home is just minutes away from shops/dining/coffee in town and the main King's Beach area. The house itself was very comfortable - we loved the open floorplan with the mix of families we had staying. The fireplace was very cozy in the cooler fall weather.

Beach front in Tahoe is the best.

We love Lake Tahoe so much we wanted to have a chance for lake front. This home didn’t disappoint. Loved having the buoy for the boat. We would stay here again for sure.

Loved that the lake is so assessable from the home. I enjoyed not having to drive anywhere for anything as shopping and restaurants are close by. The highway noise was a lot and seemed to last well into the night and early morning. The home also doesn’t have a master.

Great place for short family trip. Minor issues with light in kitchen and cigarette butts left on property. Property manager sent someone by and issues dealt with. Great location and the beach was nice. We had a great time and the kids wanted to stay longer. Thanks again
