California Real Estate & Relocation Guide

Homewood, California

Located in Placer County

Homewood, California is one of the communities surrounding Lake Tahoe; there is a Nevada side and a California side to this lake. Homewood residents will be the first to tell you they live on the better side of the lake!

From the moment you enter Homewood, life seems to slow down just a little. The mountains frame the emerald waters of Lake Tahoe until you reach magical Emerald Bay where the mountains and the lake become one. Many of Tahoe's largest tributaries enter the lake here. The Pacific Crest Trail is within reach.

Tahoe's finest water skiing is found here among the lake's glassiest water. Winter brings superb downhill skiing via Alpine Meadows' Sherwood Bowl. Homewood Mountain Resort will have you feel like you're skiing right into the lake! Homewood Mountain Resort also offers summer Paintball fun, and lake fun too.

Homewood's housing is equally as varied. Condominiums offer choices from beautiful lakefront developments like the historic Tahoe Tavern Properties. All have excellent amenities including pool, tennis courts and excellent rental programs. Prices on Homewood condos run from $100,000 to $700,000 (for that incredible lakefront town home).

Homes can range from a simple cabin priced in the low I 00's up to a multi-acre Estate ranging in the millions of dollars. Other small subdivisions may simply own a pier, buoys and strip of private lakefront access.

There is a reason many long time locals refer to this area as "The best place on the lake." Whether looking for a lot to develop, a condo, a rental property or simply that perfect vacation cabin getaway, make sure Homewood is your first choice!
