Meyers Neighborhood Profile (South Lake Tahoe, CA)

January 9, 2012

Out in the county, this neighborhood is the first section you’ll discover after coming over Highway 50 from Sacramento.  A great community surrounded by beautiful mountain and forest views, Meyers has so many great things to offer!  This neighborhood is like it’s own little town – not only is  Lira’s Supermarket close by for all your grocery needs but there are some great little restaurants within walking/biking/driving distance.  Meyers also has a post office, gas stations, and Meeks Hardware.  There are also two golf courses surrounding this neighborhood as well as tons of different hiking/biking trails through the forest and meadows.  And in the winter the golf courses provide snowmobiling fun and the trails provide excellent cross-country skiing and snowshoeing.

At the end of E San Bernardino Avenue you can find Tahoe Paradise Park.  The upper section of the park includes Lake Baron (a great spot for fishing, or a beautiful backdrop for pictures), tennis courts, and a clubhouse which you can reserve for private parties and events (Tahoe Paradise Resort Improvement District 530-577-9881).  The lower section of the park has a playground, picnic area, basketball courts, ball fields, and backs up to the river.  More trails can be found here.  Also off of San Bernardino Avenue  is the Lake Tahoe Environmental Science Magnet School.

Along with all the great amenities mentioned above, Meyers is about 15-20 minutes from Sierra At Tahoe Ski Resort, 5-10 minutes from the “Y area” of town, and 18-20 minutes from Stateline.  Meyers is also close to Highway 89 which leads to Hope Valley (beautiful views) and Kirkwood Ski Resort.  Meyers neighborhood is a great place for any homeowner.  There are prime older homes, newer construction homes and even some lots for you to build your dream home on.  Whatever your needs may be, Meyers has plenty to offer.
