A shining beacon on cusp of the Californian and Nevadan border, Lake Tahoe is a sparkling leisure vacation rental resort with exciting activities on offer all year round. Famed for its tendency for significant snowfall, Lake Tahoe boasts a range of ski resorts on the northern and southern shores and across the Nevadan border. The beauty of this area was showcased to the world as it hosted the 1960 Winter Olympics, prompting a tourism boom towards the end of the 20th century.
With mountain peaks hitting up to 10,000 feet, Lake Tahoe is also a similarly breathtaking summer vacation rental destination. Popular with mountaineering and hiking enthusiasts, the scenery is just as magnificent in summer as it is in winter.
Those that wish to venture into the great outdoors for their summer vacation can rent a boat to explore the area and partake in idyllic fishing environments. Set in amongst the expansive mountain ranges, golf courses and mountain-biking trails provide moments of wonder as visitors enjoy their favourite pastimes across some of America’s finest scenery.
