Welcome to Sandy Cove on the North Shore, a peaceful lakeside cottage in North Lake Tahoe, just a stone's throw from a pristine, private beach with its own pier and breathtaking lake views. This idyllic Lake Tahoe getaway promises a perfect retreat for couples and adventurous travelers. Located at The Franciscan Lodge in Tahoe Vista, this beautifully updated one-bedroom lakeside haven offers a warm and inviting atmosphere. While, not directly on the water, this unit sits steps away from the shore line. Inside, the living room features a comfortable sectional couch that pulls out to a double bed, a cozy gas fireplace, and a huge flat-screen TV. The newly remodeled kitchenette shines with stainless steel appliances and has everything you need to cook up delicious meals before heading out for a day of Lake Tahoe adventures. The ensuite bedroom, dressed with a queen-sized bed, leads to a fully renovated, spacious bathroom. From your furnished front porch, you are mere steps away from two private sandy beaches and a picturesque private pier—a fabulous place to watch those legendary Lake Tahoe sunsets. Adjacent to the pier, a volleyball court with stunning lake views invites friendly competition. This Lake Tahoe retreat also offers a swimming pool, a clubhouse, several stainless steel BBQs on the grounds, and the added convenience of on-site property management. There's also parking just out your front door for easy access! In addition to being only 3 minutes away from the shops and restaurants in Kings Beach, you're also just a quick 10-minute drive from Northstar Resort. For those who crave outdoor adventures, North Lake Tahoe Regional Park, located just across the street from the property, offers amenities like tennis courts, cross-country skiing, snowmobiling, and much more!

ABOUT THE AREA Just west of Kings Beach and running right along the lake, Tahoe Vista is a favorite of outdoor enthusiasts.

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.
