Helen and Prentiss Davis, Lake Tahoe When I first visited Lake Tahoe and the Sierras in 1970 I knew that this incredibly beautiful and very special place would have an important role to play in my future. I began training as a real estate professional in 1970 and have been buying and selling property in California and Hawaii since 1973, but a long career as a salesman and sales manager in consumer products kept me away from Lake Tahoe, living and working in places like New York, Los Angeles and The Far East. During all these years, I returned as often as possible to enjoy the fantastic skiing at Squaw Valley, Northstar, Alpine Meadows and Lake Tahoe’s other world class resorts. A bachelor for many years, in 2001 I met the woman of my dreams who also happened to be a long time Tahoe/Truckee resident. Now my wife Helen and I live in Prosser Lakeview, Truckee with the Tahoe National Forest as our back yard. During the winter months we enjoy skiing, dining, shopping or just hanging out at Northstar-at Tahoe, Squaw Valley USA, Sugar Bowl, or Alpine Meadows, all of which are only a few minutes drive from our front door. I’ve skied all over the world including the best of Europe and both North and South America and I can personally guarantee the variety and quality of skiing in North Lake Tahoe/Truckee is second to none. When the warmer weather arrives, we enjoy the superb mountain biking on Lake Tahoe’s many back country roads and well maintained single track trails. A fly fisherman since my teens, I appreciate the endless possibilities to catch trophy trout in our many streams and lakes. Last May I took a fat, 23 inch rainbow trout from Alder Creek, virtually in our back yard. To complement our endless recreational possibilities, Lake Tahoe/Truckee residents each year enjoy 320 days of clear blue skies along with low humidity, clean air and pristine water. Best of all, between the world famous snow dumps which we normally measure in feet rather than the usual inches, the Lake Tahoe/Truckee area enjoys relatively mild winter temperatures. So don’t be surprised if you see some Tahoe locals skiing or boarding in tee shirts next January. In the Lake Tahoe/Truckee area you will find a great variety of homes and a strong, growing and constantly changing housing market. If your plans and dreams include buying a home in the North Lake Tahoe/Truckee area I would sincerely appreciate an opportunity to help you make that dream a reality. |
