About Lahontan

Lahontan was the first community built in Martis Valley and still sets the standard for privacy. Nine hundred acres, just over 500 homesites, and life centered on two Tom Weiskopf courses — an 18-hole championship and a 9-hole par-3 — give it a quieter, more estate-oriented feel than its neighbors.

The community centers on Camp Lahontan, an all-season family recreation center, with historic Truckee five miles away and Northstar's village minutes the other direction. Membership is a separate purchase from the home.
