Timeless Tahoe Retreat With Expansive Outdoor Living

A true Tahoe treasure, once home to Muppet master Frank Oz, this classic Marla Bay retreat combines historic charm with modern comfort steps from the community’s private sandy beach. Marla Bay Homeowners’ Beach is ideal for swimming, sunbathing, and lakefront enjoyment. Boating enthusiasts will love the sixty seasonal boat moorings available on a first-come, first-served basis for approximately one thousand five hundred dollars per season. Inside, you will find five bedrooms and two bathrooms, thoughtfully updated while keeping Tahoe’s timeless character intact. The main level hosts the primary suite, guest bedroom, updated kitchen with stone counters and butcher block island, and a great room with a stone fireplace and pine plank floors. Upstairs, a large bunk room with a television lounge offers the perfect place for family gatherings, sleepovers, or weekend getaways. The outdoor living is where Tahoe shines. Relax on the expansive deck or stone patio with filtered sunset views of the lake. Host barbecues in the oversized landscaped backyard, complete with a historic outdoor fireplace and horseshoe pit. With parking for oversized vehicles and an expandable daylight unfinished four hundred square feet basement for storage, this property is as functional as it is enchanting. And it is all located in the heart of Marla Bay—one of Tahoe’s most historic and picturesque neighborhoods established in 1934. Here, life slows down. Stroll to the private beach, meet neighbors along tree-lined lanes, or wander to Round Hill Pines Beach Resort for waterfront dining and boat rentals. Just three miles from Stateline and six miles from Heavenly’s Boulder Lodge, you are close to the action but tucked away in a lakeside enclave where families have made memories for generations.
