Rubicon Bay Homes for sale. Rubicon Bay, California, West Shore, Lake Tahoe.

One of Tahoe’s best kept secrets is the Rubicon Bay community. The Rubicon Bay, California area starts approximately 11 miles south of the “Y” in Tahoe City on the West Shore of Lake Tahoe and ends right before the D.L. Bliss State Park in Emerald Bay.
The Rubicon Bay area is a small, West Shore, Lake Tahoe community that is next to the Meeks Bay, which is just south of Tahoma, California. This neighborhood is known for their beautiful sandy white beaches and the amazing blue colors that Lake Tahoe is known for.

The Rubicon Bay neighborhood is a mix of smaller, older, Tahoe cabins that are used just in the summer, along with larger, newer luxury mountain homes and lakefronts that are used year-around. This area has lakefronts, lake-side and mountain-side subdivisions, with less than 400 parcels in the Rubicon Bay area. The number of Rubicon Bay homes and cabins for sale is always limited in this area because it is a small community.

This part of Lake Tahoe is very desirable because of the pristine beaches, the “get-away from it all” location, and because of the number of non-lakefront, lakeside mountain homes and cabins. A lakeside location (homes located on the lakeside of California Highway 89 South) means owners are very short distance to the beach without having to cross the highway. Rubicon Bay homes and cabins for sale under $1 million dollars have been very limited at anyone given time due to the limited home supply for this area.

The upside for mountain homes and cabins on the mountain-side of the subdivision are the stunning views of Lake Tahoe and Rubicon Bay.

Rubicon properties that are not lakefronts do have access to one of the private home owner associations. There are two optional property owner associations in the area the Rubicon Tahoe Owners Association, Inc., North Beach and South Beach, and the Rubicon Parks Estates Improvement Association. This means owners have access to private Lake Tahoe beaches, shared pier use, and a buoy rental options are available for home owners that choose to join in this area.

The Rubicon Bay is dominated by second home owners and is a great place to get away from it all, but it’s also a wonderful place to live all year long!
