SOUTH LAKE TAHOE, Calif. - The popular Tallac Historic Site will officially open for the summer season on Memorial Day Weekend, starting Saturday, May 29 and going through Sunday, September 26.
Nestled in a 250-year old Jeffrey Pine grove on 150 acres of National Forest System lands, the Tallac Historic Site features the Baldwin-Pope Estates, and Heller Estate, including a collection of 19 structures that are listed on the National Registry of Historic Places. The once rustic luxury resort getaway for wealthy San Francisco Bay Area families is made up of main houses, cabins, caretaker and
servants quarters, service and storage units, and a boathouse. The site has been painstakingly preserved, restored, and maintained by a joint partnership between the USDA Forest Service Lake Tahoe Basin Management Unit and the non-profit interpretive partner, Tahoe Heritage Foundation.
