Tahoe Keys Real Estate

Whether you are a water lover, boater, or just like great views, you can not beat the Tahoe Keys area for real estate in South Lake Tahoe. The lake is just about full and the water channels in the Tahoe Keys look great! I was just out in the Keys looking at homes and the setting is amazing. There were boats and jet skies cruising out to the lake, gardeners working on the nicely landscaped yards, and kids fishing off of the docks!
