    Description

    Jackson Landing is one of the rarest privately owned recreational properties in the Sierra Nevada. Encompassing approximately 110 acres with nearly 1.5 miles of private shoreline—roughly 12% of the entire reservoir—it is the only privately owned shoreline on the lake, surrounded by nearly 800,000 acres of protected Tahoe National Forest. Located at approximately 6,100 feet in elevation, the property features a remarkable blend of alpine meadows, granite outcroppings, old-growth pines, natural springs, secluded coves, and panoramic views of the Sierra Crest and Sierra Buttes. The crystal-clear reservoir is renowned for exceptional fishing, boating, kayaking, paddleboarding, and year-round outdoor recreation, while the Pacific Crest Trail passes just east of the property, providing immediate access to one of North America's most iconic wilderness corridors, and numerous high-alpine lakes, trails and world-class back-country recreation within a short 15 mile radius. Despite its extraordinary privacy, Jackson Landing is only about 34 miles north of Truckee, approximately one hour from Reno-Tahoe International Airport, and less than 90 minutes from world-class Lake Tahoe ski resorts. Summer and fall vehicle access is easy via well-maintained Forest Service roads, while winter access by snowmobile, snowcat, or helicopter preserves the property's secluded alpine character. Floatplane access offers an unforgettable alternative arrival directly onto the reservoir. Extensive due diligence has already been completed. Under existing TPZ zoning, Sierra County code confirms the ability to construct a private residential compound, with accessory dwellings, outbuildings and additional structures. Potential building sites have been identified, and well, septic, and off-grid power systems have all been determined to be feasible, allowing a future owner to focus on creating a one-of-a-kind legacy retreat. Whether envisioned as a private family compound, high-end wilderness lodge, multigenerational family retreat, or you simply want to own and steward an irreplaceable private Alpine Lakefront property, opportunities like this simply do not exist anymore. Conservation boundaries, federal ownership, and the geography of the Sierra Nevada make it virtually impossible to recreate this combination of acreage, privacy, shoreline, and future flexibility. Jackson Landing is your chance to own one of the West's truly irreplaceable alpine landscapes.
