Set along the quiet canals of Tahoe Keys - one of South Lake Tahoe's most sought-after waterfront pockets - this waterfront three-story condo puts the lake practically in your backyard. A private boat dock sits just off the home, so mornings can start with coffee at the water's edge and afternoons can end tying up after a day on Lake Tahoe. Inside, the open-concept main level keeps the group together: a comfortable living area flows into a full kitchen and a dining table for six, with a bar with bar refrigerator for pouring something cold once the boat's put away.
The outdoor space is where this place earns its name. A covered lounge with a sofa offers a shaded spot to sink into with a book, while the upstairs patio balcony sets up for a propane BBQ, a chair to catch the sun, and long looks across the water and views of Heavenly Ski Resort, Freels Peek and the pines. When the sun drops, the game cabinet takes over - cards, Yahtzee, Bingo, Farkle, and the always-competitive Know It or Blow It tend to keep everyone at the table well past dinner.
The layout suits a small crew or a couple of families: two queen bedrooms and a twin room, sleeping six, with a pack 'n play tucked into the twin room for the littlest travelers. An in-unit washer and dryer means you can pack light and head home with clean bags.
Being in the Keys is its own draw. The flat, walkable streets are made for after-dinner strolls and easy bike rides, with meadow and Mt. Tallac views around nearly every corner. Your Tahoe Keys guest access opens up the community's amenities - indoor and outdoor pools, hot tubs, seven tennis courts, pickel ball court and a private beach and pier, all a short walk from the door. Just up the road, the Tahoe Keys Marina rents boats, kayaks, and paddleboards and launches you straight onto the lake.
There's plenty within easy reach, too. Pope Beach and the south shore's sandy stretches are only a couple of miles off, Heavenly's slopes sit about four miles away for winter laps or summer gondola rides, and the restaurants and nightlife at Stateline are a quick drive. Point the car west and Emerald Bay's postcard overlook is roughly twenty minutes on --- an easy morning out before heading back to the dock. It's waterfront Tahoe living with the whole south shore at your fingertips.

Visitors flock here especially to ski and snowboard on dramatic slopes that seem to fall into the abyss of the lake's cobalt blue water.
