The Most Exclusive Community in Lake Tahoe

When searching for Truckee luxury homes for sale or exploring Lake Tahoe real estate for sale, today’s buyers are doing more than purchasing property – they are securing access, privacy, world-class recreation, and a caliber of lifestyle that few communities can deliver. Located on more than 2,100 acres in the Martis Valley between Truckee and Lake Tahoe, Martis Camp stands alone as one of the most exclusive addresses in the region.

Limited to just 671 lots/homesites, Martis Camp’s intentional low-density plan preserves sweeping forest corridors, expansive views, and remarkable separation between residences. Homesites range from one-third of an acre to more than four acres, yet even the smaller parcels are carefully oriented to maximize privacy. The result is a community that feels intimate and discreet, where architecture blends seamlessly into the Sierra Nevada landscape, and an unrivaled array of activities ensures every generation is engaged and immersed in the mountain lifestyle.

Four Seasons, One Destination.

Martis Camp Chairlift

With nearly 275 days of sunshine each year, Martis Camp delivers true four-season living, supported by on-property amenities that few mountain communities can match. In winter, members can enjoy direct ski access to Northstar California, complete with valet ski service, community shuttles, and slope-side privileges at the members-only Lookout Ski Lodge. This allows owners to bypass crowds entirely and makes Martis Camp stand out from other Northstar homes for sale. Additional winter activities include heated pickleball courts, a tubing hill, converted hiking trails for snowshoeing, cross-county skiing, and more.

Truckee’s summers are just as spectacular. The community boasts a Tom Fazio-designed 18-hole championship golf course, hiking and biking trails, tennis and pickleball courts, a fishing lake stocked with trophy rainbow trout, and several other activities that make these Lake Tahoe luxury homes an unmatched investment.

Martis Camp Beach club at Mourelatos

At Lake Tahoe, members enjoy special access to a private Beach Club, which provides lakeside dining, recreation, and a serene setting. In addition, the community just acquired the historic Mourelatos Lakeshore Resort on Lake Tahoe’s North Shore, a beloved, family-owned property that has served the community for almost fifty years. As one of Lake Tahoe’s largest sandy beaches within a commercially zoned parcel, the 3.2-acre property offers Martis Camp Club the potential to expand member access, recreation, and the lakefront experience upon its reopening. Among luxury homes for sale in Lake Tahoe, where lake frontage is finite and protected, this level of access is extremely rare.

A Community Few Can Access and Even Fewer Leave.

While many developments offer amenities, Martis Camp fosters community and belonging. The Camp Lodge is the vibrant social center of the community, offering fine dining, a fitness area, and a full-service spa. The Family Barn adds a playful counterpoint with bowling lanes, a swimming pool, a theater, gathering spaces and more. In addition, sports pavilion gatherings, a summer concert series, seasonal events, and thoughtfully curated programming transform neighbors into lifelong friends.
