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.

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.

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. For landlubbers, the nearby regional park sports a year-round trailhead for mountain biking, snowshoeing, and cross-country skiing, a disc golf course, nature trails, and sweet swing sets.

In the winter, you are less than fifteen 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 sidebar.
