Carnelian Bay is a hidden gem of the North Shore. Named for the semi-precious red and yellow stones along the shoreline in this region, Carnelian Bay is a perfect location for those that are looking for a quieter pace of life at the lake amongst the pines. Just 10 minutes from Stateline boasting Tahoe's best nightlife and music scene, and minutes from Garwoods, a lakefront restaurant that is known for their famous Wet Woody, you'll be close to Tahoe's summer event scene.
