Gardner Mountain

Gardner Mountain has a  quiet mountain like setting and is still within the City limits of South Lake Tahoe. As the name implies, the area is located on a small and forested mountain.   Gardner Mountain has easy access from HWY 89 and is less than a mile from HWY 50 and the Y. Gardner Mountain is one of the closest areas to Camp Richardson, Fallen Leaf Lake, and South Shores best beaches. There is a great bike trail that leads to Pope beach, Baldwin beach, Kiva beach, and all the way to Ski beach from the bottom of Gardner Mountain. There are numerous new restaurants, breweries, shopping, banks, and grocery stores located within minutes from this area. 

National Forest land borders the west side of the Gardner Mountain area, and to the south is the South Tahoe High School. Gardner Street, on the west side, is one of the best streets in the area to be located on because it borders the National Forest land and offers both privacy and views.

Most of the lots in the Gardner Mountain area are 5,000 to 10,000 square feet in size. The 10,000 square foot lots are usually 50′ wide by 200′ deep, so many homes in the area have very large backyards. There are also a few big lots near the bottom of Gardner Mountain that are an entire acre in size.
