Why Live in Olympic Heights

Olympic Heights in Truckee is a neighborhood known for its proximity to outdoor activities and scenic views. The Truckee River borders the southern side, offering popular spots for fly fishing and swimming, while unmarked mountain biking trails and the Truckee River Legacy Trail provide additional recreational opportunities. Riverview Sports Park, located west of the neighborhood, features multisport fields and a BMX pump track. For golf enthusiasts, the Old Greenwood Golf Course is accessible with a membership to the Tahoe Mountain Club. Boating and water sports can be enjoyed at Boca Reservoir, about 7 miles east, with additional trails and reservoirs connected via Forest Service roads. The neighborhood is roughly a mile long, making it easy to navigate by foot or bike, although cars are necessary for broader travel, especially during snowy winters. Historic Truckee, 2 miles west, offers a variety of shops, restaurants, and cultural attractions, including the popular Truckee Thursdays event during the summer. Schools in the area are highly rated, with Glenshire Elementary, Sierra Expeditionary Learning School, Alder Creek Middle, and Truckee High all receiving high marks. Homes in Olympic Heights are primarily ranch-style from the 1970s to 1990s, with some traditional mountain cabins featuring exposed wood and metal roofs. The absence of a homeowners association appeals to local contractors, although this means equipment is often visible around properties. The neighborhood is safer than the national average, and its location provides clear views of the Sierras, especially from homes on the north side of Highland Avenue.
