About this property

Sandy Cove on the North Shore -Lakeside Cottage w Pier + Beach, Dog OK, HOA Amenities

  • Experience the best of North Lake Tahoe lakefront living at Sandy Cove, a peaceful lakeside cottage located in Tahoe Vista on the North Shore. Just steps from the shoreline, this beautifully renovated vacation rental offers access to a private sandy beach, HOA pier, and breathtaking Lake Tahoe views, making it an ideal getaway for couples and outdoor enthusiasts.

    Situated within The Franciscan Lodge, this one-bedroom Lake Tahoe cottage is not directly on the water but is only moments from the lake. Inside, the inviting living room features a comfortable sectional sleeper sofa, cozy gas fireplace, and large flat-screen TV. The newly remodeled kitchenette includes stainless steel appliances and is fully stocked for preparing meals before heading out to explore North Lake Tahoe.

    The private ensuite bedroom offers a queen-size bed and opens to a fully renovated, spacious bathroom, creating a relaxing retreat after a day on the lake or the trails.
    Step outside to your front porch and enjoy immediate access to two private sandy beaches and a scenic HOA pier, perfect for swimming, paddleboarding, or watching legendary Lake Tahoe sunsets. Additional HOA amenities include a seasonal swimming pool, clubhouse, lakeside volleyball court, multiple stainless steel BBQs, and on-site property management. Convenient parking is located just outside the unit.

    This North Lake Tahoe vacation rental is only 3 minutes from Kings Beach restaurants and shopping and just a 10-minute drive to Northstar California Resort, making it ideal for both summer and winter stays. Outdoor lovers will also appreciate being directly across the street from North Lake Tahoe Regional Park, offering tennis courts, cross-country skiing, snowmobiling, hiking, and more.

    ABOUT THE AREA
    Just west of Kings Beach and running right along the lake, Tahoe Vista is a favorite of outdoor enthusiasts. For lake lovers, kayaking from one of several hidden beaches, or a motorized excursion from the new Tahoe Vista Recreation Area boat launch facility are two Tahoe Vista treats.
