WorldMark Lake Tahoe is everything you'd expect from a WorldMark property - five-star accommodations, friendly staff, and beautiful Lake Tahoe in the background. This unique timeshare property resides in the Tahoe Summit Village atop Kingsbury Grade and features three separate buildings along Tramway Drive.

As you drive up to WorldMark Lake Tahoe, Tahoe III is the first building you will see and is where the registration desk is located. This building has 35 units: 23 one-bedroom, 11 two-bedroom, and one two-bedroom-plus. One- and two-bedroom units accommodate up to six people and feature a gas fireplace, sleeper sofa, and a fully equipped kitchen. Tahoe II is a six unit property that consists of three two-bedroom units and three three-bedroom units. These units have all the amenities of Tahoe III with the addition of in-unit washers and dryers. Tahoe I offers nine units consisting of six two-bedroom and three three-bedroom units. These units have jetted tubs in the master bedrooms, in-unit washer/dryers, gas fireplaces, and fully equipped kitchens.

In the summer, spring, and fall months, enjoy WorldMark Lake Tahoe's outdoor swimming pool and children's pool, which opens a week before Memorial Day. Relax in either of the resort's two spas, or spend a fun-filled afternoon in the recreation center. The resort also offers arcade games, ping-pong, a fitness room, and barbecue area.

Lake Tahoe is the largest alpine lake in North America. A scenic 72-mile driving tour around the lake during the summer will reveal stunning views, popular beaches, and maybe a peek at some of the area wildlife. Back in the city, enjoy numerous boutiques, specialty shops, casinos, and outlet stores.
