History of Incline Village

Once upon a me, there was a lovely azure blue lake, surrounded by a lush forest. When

Mark Twain fi rst saw Lake Tahoe he remarked that “surely this is the fi nest view the world aff ords.” Lake Tahoe’s fi rst residents were the Washoe and Paiute Indians who lived and fi shed along its shores. As me passed and civiliza on moved West, se lers paused in passes to the North and South to marvel at the color and clarity of this magnifi cent body of water. Incline Village slept through the Lake’s early development, as the centers of ac vity in the early days sprang up at South Lake Tahoe, Glenbrook and Tahoe City.

In the mid 1800’s lumber interests discovered the Nevada North Shore as an excellent source of lumber for the Washoe Mines and at this point began methodically logging. By 1897 Incline had been le a sea of stumps, with a maze of crumbling fl umes and ro ng log chutes.

In the early 1900’s visitors to Lake Tahoe spent glorious summer holidays in the vaca on paradises of Glenbrook and Tallac to the south. A one lane road connected the North and South shores and in the 1930’s summer homes were built in the area of Incline Beach. Incline was li le more that a wide spot in the road during the 30’s, 40’s and 50’s, with only summer homes and a trailer park to dis nguish it. Year round residents were few and those who remain today tell stories of wild winters, food shortages and isola on.

In the late 1950’s, Crystal Bay Development Company acquired 9,000 acres in Incline Valley and immediately began plans for a new Incline Village, a modern, carefully designed residen al and resort community on Lake Tahoe. By 1964, a new elementary school was under construc on and several years later the community cut the ribbon at Incline High School. Incline was on it’s way. And that brings us to the Incline Village we have today, with signs of a healthy future in evidence around every corner.
