About Homewood

Homewood is a tranquil West Shore community known for its stunning sunsets over Lake Tahoe, the beloved Homewood Mountain Resort, and a distinctly local, unhurried atmosphere. Located south of Tahoe City, Homewood offers some of the most scenic lakefront stretches in the entire Tahoe basin.

Real estate in Homewood includes charming cabins, family homes tucked among the pines, and coveted lakefront properties along West Lake Boulevard. The community is smaller and more intimate than many North Shore towns, attracting buyers who prioritize natural beauty and a genuine mountain lifestyle over commercial convenience.

Homewood Mountain Resort provides skiing right in the community, with incredible lake views from the slopes. The West Shore also offers excellent hiking, biking along the bike path to Tahoe City, and access to some of the clearest water on the lake. The planned Homewood Resort redevelopment has generated significant interest in the area's future.

Why Homewood?

  • Homewood Mountain Resort skiing in the community
  • Spectacular West Shore sunsets over the lake
  • Quiet, intimate neighborhood atmosphere
  • Bike path connecting to Tahoe City
  • Some of the clearest water on Lake Tahoe
