The West Shore’s boating culture is part of Homewood’s character, with marinas, wooden-boat traditions and summer days on the lake.
Obexer’s Boat Company offers launch, fuel, storage and service options in Homewood. Slip and buoy arrangements are separate from owning a nearby home—ask the marina about current availability and vessel requirements.

Views, access and a place to unwind
Homewood stretches along Highway 89 between lake and forest. Some properties offer lake views or association shoreline access, while others are wooded retreats farther from the water.
Review beach, pier and buoy rights for the exact property. A lake view or short walk to the shore does not establish private access.
Nearby Chambers Landing has both a small public beach and separate private facilities; Sugar Pine Point offers state-park shoreline farther south.
