Pioneer Trail is a road that leads travelers from the town of Meyers to all other areas of South Lake Tahoe without having to drive on Highway 50 with its stop lights, thus making it very popular with those drivers in the know. It is several miles long but the neighborhood called “Pioneer Trail” covers the northwestern length from the Montgomery Estates neighborhood to the Country Club Estates neighborhood. Homes in the Pioneer Trail neighborhood vary from A-frames and cozy cabins to larger, newer vacation homes. Lots tend to be larger and many homes are newer than the typical South Lake Tahoe home. This is a great neighborhood for a second home as well as a vacation home income property for those who want more of the mountain and woodsy feel. You can be on the ski slopes in just minutes from a home in Pioneer Trail…great access to Sierra at Tahoe Ski Resort as well as Kirkwood and Heavenly Mountain Resorts.
