Upper Tyner

Welcome to Upper Tyner

Upper Tyner offers a true mountain-living experience for buyers who value space, views, and immediate access to the outdoors. Located above Mount Rose Highway and west of the Jennifer neighborhood, this area sits higher on the slope and feels more removed from town, an intentional tradeoff that many residents happily make.
 
The neighborhood includes roughly 330 single-family homes, ranging from classic Tahoe cabins and modest mountain residences to large custom estates. Views vary by location and elevation. Some homes are nestled into quiet forested settings, while others enjoy filtered to expansive panoramic views across the Second Creek ravine and out toward Lake Tahoe. This variety allows buyers to choose between privacy, scenery, or a balance of both.
 
Upper Tyner spans elevations from approximately 7,000 feet at Tyner Way up to around 7,700 feet on higher streets such as Marlene. With that elevation comes increased snowfall compared to lower neighborhoods in Incline Village, but winter access remains reliable. Tyner Way and Dorcey Drive are designated school bus routes, and snow removal is consistently handled by Washoe County and state agencies. While mornings can be icy after storms, conditions typically improve as the day progresses.
 
Lots in Upper Tyner average around 0.4 acres and are often level or only gently sloped, which is somewhat uncommon for a higher-elevation Tahoe neighborhood. This supports usability, privacy, and flexibility for homeowners. Because the neighborhood sits farther from the lake and town center, home prices here are generally more approachable than in lower-elevation or lake-adjacent areas, making Upper Tyner an attractive option for buyers seeking value without sacrificing views or setting.
 
Outdoor access is a major draw. Several well-known hiking routes begin nearby, including trailheads that lead to Rifle Peak and Mt. Rose Meadows, favorites for locals looking to escape into alpine terrain without driving far. As a result, Upper Tyner has a strong population of year-round residents who embrace all four seasons and appreciate the quieter, more natural environment.
 
Upper Tyner is well-suited for buyers who prioritize tranquility, scenery, and outdoor recreation over walkability. For those comfortable with winter conditions and a slightly longer drive into town, it offers one of the most authentic mountain lifestyles in Incline Village, spacious, scenic, and grounded in nature.
