Olympic Valley real estate is made up of 15 subdivisions and approximately 600 home sites offering the best real estate options. Because the Palisades Tahoe ski resort is located within Olympic Valley, CA many people refer to this neighborhood as Palisades Tahoe (formerly Squaw Valley), which can be a bit confusing. Many Olympic Valley homes were built in the mid to late 1950’s leading up to the 1960 Olympic games and are smaller eclectic cabins. Most of these cabins offer views of the Palisades Tahoe ski resort and are very desirable. A good portion of these original Tahoe cabins has been torn down or expanded on in order to facilitate custom Palisades Tahoe mountain lodges and Tahoe vacation homes. Over the last 20 years, 8 new subdivisions have been developed in Olympic Valley in order to facilitate the demand for people who want to build their own custom homes.
