Nearly ON the Beach, Lake/Mountain Views-Whitecaps Lakefront Lookout

*Tahoe is a beautiful and fun place to visit, but occasionally this area can be affected by extreme weather events. While we never want things like icy roads, road closures, or smoke from wildfires to negatively impact our guests, it can happen. We ask travelers to plan their vacation appropriately for the rural mountain climate and encourage guests to research all travel insurance options, as Tahoe Moon Properties cannot provide refunds for things outside of our control.

Whitecaps Lakefront Lookout is a truly awe-inspiring lakefront condo that you do NOT want to miss! It offers the modern Tahoe-traveler a perfect balance of luxury and convenience, as the heart of King's Beach surrounds this cozy lakefront oasis. It's happiest travelers will appreciate it's walkability to endless restaurants and attractions; the biggest attraction (of course) sits right out the back window! HINT: It's Lake Tahoe! PLUS: With NorthStar Ski Resort and Diamond Peak Ski resort within about a 10 minute Drive, you really can't beat this location!

The condo has been recently remodeled and updated with all new furniture and amenities, and is sure to impress. A gorgeous stone hearth and gas fireplace greet you as you enter, welcoming you to this comfortable space. Frankly, we wouldn't blame you if instead you headed straight for the deck overlooking the crystal blue waters of Lake Tahoe. Plan a BBQ here with the family and dine alfresco in the summertime on the beautiful polywood outdoor dining set.

An updated kitchen sits adjacent to the comfortable living space. Down the hall lie the home's two bedrooms, one with a queen bed, and the other, the primary suite with a King and ensuite bathroom. A secondary bathroom and laundry room accompany them. Important, this property does not have air conditioning. Air conditioners are extremely unusual in North lake Tahoe.

In the winter, you're less than 10 miles from Northstar, and 15 miles from Mt. Rose Ski Resort for world-class skiing. And in the summer, you may not even have to move your car to enjoy Tahoe to the fullest, as this condo sits right on the beach. Among other things, the best pizza in town is a stones throw away. "Whitecap's Pizza" is so good we named this condo after it!

Vacation here and you'll be coming back year after year... it's proven that you don't have to forgo breathtaking lakefront amenities and gorgeous sprawling lake-views when looking to stay in a convenient locale!

Great little place on the water
We had a great time please was super clean and it was centrally located walking distance to town and food. The one thing that was not great was communication with the property manager. I contacted them 24 hours before check in and check out to request early check in and late check out the response was very slow and office was closed for the weekend. Very hard to get a hold of.

Tahoe Experience
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Whitecaps. Our only regret was that the weather, while reasonably pleasant for the time of year, was a little to cool and breezy to allow us to enjoy the great deck at the property. The unit was well stocked with incidental items we needed and was comfortable and well situated.

The location, right on the beach was amazing!! Property was very clean and comfortable. As mentioned in previous reviews showers were small so trying to bathe small kids is a challenge. We've stayed in Kings Beach a few times and wish there were a few more restaurant choices within walking distance. Whitecaps Pizza right next door was great, and Java Hut as well. We would definitely stay here again!

Amazing View
This property offers amazing views of the lake from the deck and easy access to the beach. The location is great and the pizza place next door is awesome. The one thing to be aware is that the showers are really small (probably 2.5ft wide) but was very clean. It worked ok for us but something to consider for others. The property itself was well kept and the property management firm was very accommodating and coordinating was easy.

incredible lakeside retreat
We stayed at Whitecaps #4 for our kid's ski week break. What an amazing place. Honestly - the photos do not do this rental justice. First, the apartment is bigger than it appears in the photos. Second - it's equipped with plenty of fuzzy blankets to keep cozy. Third - I had never seen a thermostat controlled fireplace before and it's simply the most wonderful thing. Fourth - the location and local eateries! My goodness, we had delicious coffee and bagel sandwiches at Java Hut in the very same building every single morning and we had world-class pizza at Whitecaps next door every other night. Also there's literally nothing between this apartment and the beach - making for incredible evening sunset walks and a living room view that is mesmerizing at all times. The only thing I would be wary of would be evening noise during the summer from beach goers and the outdoor patio from Whitecaps next door. In the wintertime this unit is very quiet - with the most noise coming from the snow plows which seem to start up in the 3am hour. Another note is I don't know exactly what the owner's family's historical connection to the Steamer Tahoe is (a beautiful old ship that serviced the lake last century) - but the apartment walls are decorated with incredible old photos and memorabilia from the ship - very interesting and tasteful. The kitchen was well equipped and there were plenty of tupperware and spices and a couple of pantry basics - but you will definitely be making several trips to the Safeway about a mile down the road to stock up - especially if you are a tea drinker (there is a coffee maker but no kettle). The laundry room is really nice and complete with a boot dryer. The master room has a huge walk-in closet to stash your luggage. The only minor complaint is that the two bathrooms are snug - but they are adequate - and the towels were clean and fluffy. Commuting to Northstar twice daily to drop off and pick up from ski school was fine in good weather, but got tricky in snowy conditions - we were driving a 2 wheel drive with cables and after a week of driving the cables broke! Once the highway was closed due to the storm and we had to take the long way around - about an hour drive. There is dedicated parking for one vehicle at the building, but no charging available for electric cars. Finally, we had great and responsive communication with Tahoe Moon the property management company. We would definitely consider staying here again.

We spent 4 nights here over New Years. We would stay here again in a heartbeat. I think it would be a great place to stay any time of year. Absoutely loved the views, fireplace, and proximity to restaurants, stores, etc. It was very cozy. The property management company was also very easy to deal with. The bathrooms are very small but the pros outweighed that con.

Overall very pleased with property and stay
The property has an amazing location, no doubt about it. The apartment itself is comfortable and well equipped with the things you would expect to find in a well run vacation rental, from towels/linens and soap/shampoo to stuff in the kitchen to make simple meals. The heating worked well. It was also quiet, despite being near the main road and close to a pizza shop. We had one hitch, where the deadbolt on the door would slip against the locking mechanism, preventing you from being able to lock or unlock the door from outside, as the case may be. We notified the property manager, and they were on it right away. They addressed the issue quickly, and even gave us something by way of compensation for the inconvenience. Given that they jumped on the problem right away and were sensitive to the inconvenience caused, I am willing to give them the full 5 stars.
