New pier for Tahoe Beach Club development improves fish habitat

 sets up plans

Submitted by Editor on Fri, 10/14/2011 – 9:45am

A new pier installation at Tahoe Beach Club www.beachclubtahoe.com will underscore the lakefront lifestyle at the first fully-owned residential lakefront development on Lake Tahoe in 25 years, and mark initial phase construction at the eagerly awaited project.

According to a news release, the new 159-foot pier will be just one of the few floating piers on Lake Tahoe. Constructed with recycled materials, a 90 foot section of the pier will raise and lower with lake level to allow for littoral drift features conducive to the lake’s sensitive fish habitat, water quality and natural environment. Completion is planned for summer 2012.

The pier has generated renewed enthusiasm and inquiries at the 20-acre site situated on prime beach front property at Stateline, Nevada. The location is the hub of recreation and nightlife activity in the heart of South Tahoe, between Edgewood Tahoe Golf Course, major casinos and Heavenly Mountain Resort. Ownership of the Tahoe Beach Club units is being offered through an exclusive priority reservation program, according to the release.

Tahoe Beach Club plans include 143 luxury villas and estate homes. The private Beach Club (the heart and soul of the development) will include amenities featuring an indoor/outdoor pool, boat-accessible beachfront restaurant, health club with work-out facilities, spa and locker rooms, concierge services, and a business center. In recent months, more than 150 potential buyers have stepped forward expressing interest in having ownership in this gated lakefront community, the release states.

The First Phase will include 39 luxury units (villas and estate homes), ranging in size from 1,250 square feet to 4,000 square-feet. Lake Tahoe’s feel and charm will be prevalent in the 14 separate buildings associated with the development, including a gatehouse and carriage house with the newest Green-Built Design architecture highlighting Tahoe’s best attributes.

A model for environmental design, the project was unanimously approved in 2008 by the Tahoe Regional Planning Agency. Complementing the aesthetics plans also include construction as a green building and design toward Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED), promoting energy conservation. The plan will also restore two acres of stream environment zone and enhance the natural eco-system of the Burke Creek-Rabe Meadow area, the release states.

We provide the most relaxing mind and body experience in the Tahoe basin.

What is Floating?
Floating is a therapeutic treatment that isolates the user from environmental stimulus, greatly reducing stress, and easing the body into a state of equilibrium. Floating is also known as flotation therapy, floating therapy, float therapy, restricted environmental stimulation therapy (or REST), and Epsom salt hydrotherapy. The flotation tank is referred to as an isolation tank, sensory deprivation chamber, float tank, floating tank, and rest tank.

The flotation tank itself is a sensory deprivation pod with 10 inch deep water warmed to 93.5 degrees and enriched with 800 pounds of Epsom salt (magnesium sulfate). The tank has an advanced filtration/purification system that operates according to regulations from the State of Nevada.

The space inside is approximately 8 feet long by 4 feet wide. Although some may be wary of feeling claustrophobic the first time they float, the tank door opens freely and you are in complete control. You can come and go as you wish. You can also float with the door open. For those who would like audio stimulation, relaxing music is available.
The experience of floating is unique. Inside the tank you’ll float effortlessly on the surface of 93.5 degree water. Floaters feel a sense of weightlessness. That weightlessness, the temperature of the water, and the dark, quiet space of the tank allow the brain to ease into a theta* brain wave state. This usually happens in the second half hour of a one hour float session. First time floaters should not expect instant results. Generally it takes more than one float to completely “let go” and fully experience flotation.
