Cal Neva Redevelopment Backed By $298M Financing; To Reopen As Lake Tahoe Proper Resort And Casino In 2027
Summary
A $298 million financing package has been secured to redevelop the historic Cal Neva resort on the California-Nevada border into the Lake Tahoe Proper Resort and Casino, with a planned reopening in 2027. The funding includes $223 million in C-PACE financing for energy-efficient upgrades and $75 million in construction loans. Led by Realberry and Proper Hospitality, the project aims to preserve the resort’s historic character while modernizing its amenities, including nearly 200 guest accommodations, restaurants, pools, a spa, and a restored 225-seat theater. The Cal Neva, once owned by Frank Sinatra and frequented by celebrities like Marilyn Monroe and John F. Kennedy, has been closed since 2013 and has undergone several redevelopment attempts. The project aims to revitalize the area’s hospitality scene and offer a design-focused destination with a private membership club, the Proper Club.
