If you love the idea of being close to Incline Village’s beaches, restaurants, golf courses, and outdoor life—but don’t want the upkeep of a large single-family home—Country Club Villas hits the sweet spot. This neighborhood has become one of the most consistently in-demand complexes on the North Shore because it blends location, convenience, and low-maintenance living in a way few other properties in Tahoe can match.
Below is everything buyers should know about home sizes, floor plans, prices, HOA fees, amenities, walkability, and long-term value—all in one place.
Country Club Villas offers some of the most functional floor plans in central Incline Village, especially for buyers wanting more space than a traditional condo but without the responsibility of a large house.
Typical features include:
3 bedroom layouts
2,112 – 2,134 sq. ft. (depending minor changes)
Attached two-car garages
Vaulted ceilings and open living spaces
Private decks
Many units remodeled with modern kitchens + luxury finishes
These feel more like real homes than condos—one of the biggest reasons demand stays high year after year.
Pricing fluctuates depending on remodel quality and location within the complex, but here’s the general range buyers can expect:
Average Home Price: Around $2.1M-$2.9M depending on upgrades
Because of their size, garage space, and proximity to private beaches, Country Club Villas consistently outperform many other mid-range Incline developments.
The HOA is one of the biggest selling points. Fees typically cover:
Exterior maintenance
Snow removal
Landscaping
Roads
Common area upkeep
Reserves
Buyers often love that the HOA handles nearly all exterior work—making this a perfect second-home or lock-and-leave property.
HOA dues generally fall around $650/month.
While not gated, Country Club Villas feels tucked away and private. The development sits just off Country Club Drive, one of the most desirable corridors in all of Incline Village, and is walkable to restaurants and Incline and Ski Beach.
Residents appreciate the quiet, residential vibe—especially given how close it is to the lake.
The community is beautifully maintained with mature landscaping, pines, and thoughtful spacing between units.
Because the HOA handles:
Home exterior work
Snow removal
Landscaping
Roof + siding maintenance
…owners get a low-maintenance lifestyle in a premium location, something increasingly rare in Incline.
Incline Village in general is much easier to insure compared to many California side mountain communities, but Country Club Villas often enjoys:
More competitive premiums
Better availability from major carriers
Less wildfire exposure
Strong HOA maintenance standards
For second-home buyers or those leaving high-risk CA zones, this is a huge plus.
This complex genuinely nails the location factor. You’re within minutes of:
Incline Beach & Ski Beach
Incline Village Championship Golf Course
Raley’s Shopping Center
Recreation Center, tennis courts & pickleball
Hyatt Regency Lake Tahoe
Restaurants like Austin’s, Bite, and Sage Leaf
Tahoe East Shore Trail
Flume Trail
Diamond Peak Ski Resort
Sand Harbor (just a few minutes away)
For many buyers, the ability to bike, walk, or take a short drive to everything they enjoy is the #1 reason they choose this neighborhood.
Country Club Villas has shown strong price stability compared to many Tahoe developments. Why?
Central location
Larger floor plans (rare in Incline townhome market)
Two-car garages (even rarer)
Lock-and-leave lifestyle
Strong buyer demand across second-home & full-time buyers
As remote work continues and inventory remains limited, these features support long-term appreciation.
This community is perfect for:
Buyers wanting more space than a condo, but easier lifestyle than a house
Second-home owners wanting low maintenance
Families wanting proximity to beaches and schools
Retirees wanting quiet, privacy, and convenience
Anyone wanting to be in central Incline Village without the lakefront price tag
