Chambers Landing, the beautiful site of 43 condominium residences situated in a gated 14-acre property on the west shore of Lake Tahoe, has a story steeped in Tahoe’s wild west history. It was during the mid-1800’s when “Old John” Washington McKinney explored the western shores of Tahoe and chose this site for his hunting and fishing resort,“Hunter’s Retreat.” His resort would consist of a main hotel with dining hall, twenty-five log cabins and numerous tents for the more adventurous guests. Mark Twain stayed at the resort throughout the seasons during his forays at Lake Tahoe. “Old John” offered sailing and fishing activities on the Lake as well as guided hunting trips into the forests beyond. He also constructed one of the first boathouses at Lake Tahoe, built in 1875, which doubled as a bar and clubhouse. Today, this well known watering hole is known as the Chambers Landing Bar & Restaurant, drawing customers from “land and sea” to indulge in their signature drink on the Lake. All summer long avid patrons line the docks to participate in this seasonal ritual as did their forefathers aboard the “Steamer Tahoe.” Chambers Landing, steeped in tradition and history, can now be a part of your family story as well. Residence Eight, elegantly designed and decorated to the highest degree of finish and craftsmanship, is offered to the market for the first time in nearly 20 years.
