Chamber's Landing
Chamber's Landing is home to sandy beaches and one of the oldest buildings on Lake Tahoe. In 1863 John Washington McKinney, otherwise known as "Old John," established "Hunter's Retreat." By 1869 his tract of land offered 20 tourists cabins and several tents available to for free to anyone wishing to take part in what he boasted as the finest hunting and fishing found in the Sierra Nevada. In 1875 of the first boathouses at the lake was built on the wharf and two years later doubled as a bar and club house. McKinney, a poor busines man due to his enthusiastic generosity, sold his establishment in 1892 to William "Whiskey Bill" Westhoff for a miserable $600. In 1920 David Henry Chambers became the owner and current namesake. The same old Club House sits on pilings above the water today and is the only place commercially dispensing alcoholic spirits on the lake. There are many piers and buoys available to park your boats while you enjoy your time at Chamber's Landing. Now a bar with an outdoor grill during the day, Chamber's Landing Restaurant is open for fine dining in the evenings.
Many homes are walking distance to this area and are able to use the public beach area as well as the bar and grill.
