Lakefront Recreational Property North Of Tahoe

Jackson Landing is one of the rarest privately owned recreational properties in the Sierra Nevada. Encompassing approximately 110 acres with nearly 1.5 miles of private shoreline—roughly 12% of the entire reservoir—it is the only privately owned shoreline on the lake, surrounded by nearly 800,000 acres of protected Tahoe National Forest.

The crystal-clear reservoir is renowned for exceptional fishing, boating, kayaking, paddle boarding, and year-round outdoor recreation, while the Pacific Crest Trail passes just east of the property, providing immediate access to one of North America’s most iconic wilderness corridors, and numerous high-alpine lakes, trails and world-class back-country recreation within a short 15 mile radius.

For the right buyer, this is not simply a land acquisition. It is a private wilderness basecamp, a family legacy property, and a rare opportunity to control a meaningful stretch of Sierra lakefront.

Whether you envision a custom lakefront residence, a cozy mountain cabin, or a simple seasonal retreat for camping beneath the pines, this property offers the flexibility to bring your vision to life. Create a place for quiet weekends, unforgettable family gatherings, or a legacy retreat where every day begins and ends by the water.

Located at approximately 6,100 feet in elevation, the property features a remarkable blend of alpine meadows, granite outcroppings, old-growth pines, natural springs, secluded coves, and panoramic views of the Sierra Crest and Sierra Buttes.

Summer and fall vehicle access is easy via well-maintained Forest Service roads, while winter access by snowmobile, snowcat, or helicopter preserves the property’s secluded alpine character. Floatplane access offers an unforgettable alternative arrival directly onto the reservoir.

Whether envisioned as a private family compound, high-end wilderness lodge, multigenerational family retreat, or you simply want to own and steward an irreplaceable private Alpine Lakefront property, this is truly a once in a lifetime opportunity. The geography of the Sierra Nevada and scarcity of private land make it virtually impossible to recreate this combination of acreage, privacy, shoreline, and future flexibility.

Jackson Landing is your chance to own one of the West’s truly irreplaceable alpine landscapes.
