Zephyr Cove sits on Lake Tahoe's East Shore at about 7,281 feet, with about 560 residents in roughly 280 households. About 26 percent of households rent, and the community has one of the highest shares of part-time homes in the region. ## More than half part-time When the Census counts more than half the housing units as seasonal, the houses on the shore spend much of the year empty. Furniture in them still ages, gets replaced and needs a home when an owner changes plans. Vaults hold the pieces a part-time owner takes out, whether for a refresh, a sale or a family handover. ## The climb to 7,281 feet At 7,281 feet, Zephyr Cove has some of the earliest and heaviest winter weather in the service area. The Sparks warehouse is about 53 miles and 72 minutes away, and the trip passes through mountain terrain. Schedule packing for late spring through fall when you can, and use the [winter moving guide](https://obriensmoving-storage.com/guides/moving-at-lake-tahoe-in-winter/) for cold-season planning. ## Lakeshore furniture Lake houses collect outdoor furniture, guest beds, kayaks and the kinds of pieces that suit a summer home. Wooden vaults measure 7 ft x 7 ft x 5 ft, and the crew packs and loads everything that fits. Fine furniture and artwork are wrapped for storage, and the estimator lists them on the inventory. ## Terms Vault storage starts at $40 per month. Stored goods ship with about 2 to 3 weeks notice, which suits an owner who plans to reopen the house in the spring. ## Good times to store - After Labor Day, when the house closes - Before listing, when the house is staged - Before a remodel - After an inheritance ## Next steps Estimators visit Zephyr Cove for the free in-home estimate, which includes 10 free heavy-duty boxes. Read [seasonal and second-home storage](https://obriensmoving-storage.com/full-service-storage/seasonal-and-second-home-storage/) for the full picture. ## Closing a lake house for the year Owners who close a house in the fall often take out the furniture that suffers most from a long winter, such as upholstered pieces and mattresses. The crew wraps and loads them into vaults before the house shuts. In spring the vaults come back on a truck with about 2 to 3 weeks notice, and the crew sets the pieces where you want them. ### Sources (checked October 18, 2026) - [U.S. Census Bureau, ACS 2020-2024 5-year estimates](https://www.census.gov/data/developers/data-sets/acs-5year.html) - [Nevada road conditions (NV Roads)](https://www.nvroads.com/) - [Tahoe Regional Planning Agency](https://www.trpa.gov/) ### Vault storage in Sparks Wooden vaults, 7 ft x 7 ft x 5 ft each, in our 30,000 sq ft warehouse.
