Chambers Landing & West Shore Real Estate

Gated Lakefront Living on Tahoe's Quiet West Shore

The Chambers Landing and West Shore corridor represents the heart of Homewood's lakefront real estate. Stretching along West Lake Boulevard south of the Homewood Mountain Resort, this area includes some of the most prestigious and scenic properties on Lake Tahoe. From the exclusive gated condos at Chambers Landing to the flat, sunny lots of McKinney Estates, West Shore lakefront living offers a level of tranquility and natural beauty that is unmatched elsewhere on the lake.

Chambers Landing

Chambers Landing is an exclusive gated community of 43 townhome-style condominiums situated on 13.5 acres of prime lakefront. Owners enjoy private pier and buoy field access, a sandy beach, four tennis courts, and a seasonally heated pool. The adjacent Chambers Landing restaurant and pier bar is a beloved West Shore institution — one of the few remaining boat-up dining destinations on the lake, famous for its punch and sunset views.

Units at Chambers Landing typically range from $1.7 million to $2.5 million, with monthly HOA fees around $1,400 providing comprehensive amenity maintenance. Only 43 units exist, and turnover is infrequent, making these condos highly sought after. When a unit hits the market, it rarely lasts long.

McKinney Estates & McKinney Shores

McKinney Estates is one of the West Shore's most desirable residential neighborhoods, known for flat, sunny lots in a quiet, secluded setting. Properties here benefit from easy accessibility (no steep driveways) and generous lot sizes. McKinney Shores, the lakefront section, features its own homeowner lakefront association with shared beach and pier access. This combination of prestige, privacy, and lake access makes McKinney one of the strongest value propositions on the West Shore.

Chamberlands & Beach Associations

The Chamberlands neighborhood and adjacent pockets offer an affordable entry into West Shore lakefront living. Homeowner beach associations provide shared beach and pier access without the premium of direct lakefront ownership. Properties here feature classic Tahoe cabins and updated family homes on wooded lots, typically ranging from $600,000 to $1.5 million.

West Shore Lakefront Estates

For buyers seeking direct lakefront ownership, the West Shore between Homewood and Tahoma offers some of the most stunning private shoreline on Lake Tahoe. These properties command $5 million to $15 million+ and feature deep water piers, private beaches, and panoramic sunset views. West Shore lakefront inventory is extremely limited — fewer than a handful of properties may be available at any given time.

STR Viability: Moderate to High

West Shore properties generate strong summer vacation rental income due to lake access and the quiet, scenic setting. Chambers Landing condos are particularly desirable as STRs given the private beach, pier, and pool amenities (verify HOA rental rules before purchasing). Cabins in Chamberlands and the Homewood core perform well as family-friendly vacation rentals. Winter demand is moderate but growing with the Homewood Mountain Resort redevelopment. Placer County STR permits are available (3,900 cap not reached). View our Homewood STR Investment Guide →
