This place is beautiful but choose lakeview side but not all of them have the view because if not you’ll be sent Cross the road to mountain way , is clean , comfortable beds the only issue is the few dishes and pants to cook literally for two people only but it’s rent for more so be aware , great location and polite staff
Juan, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

Great stay overall! Clean and solid amount of accommodations in terms of a well stocked kitchen, easy parking, large selection of TV channels, comfortable couches/living room area, warm water, functioning heating unit etc. Only nitpick is was hard to locate at night due to non lit signage. Would have appreciated better signage and/or direction on where cottage was (ie across the street from the main beach facing cottages)

Cozy little base for Tahoe adventures. Can walk to local places. Quick drive to most things on North shore. Nice beach area and dock to walk out on. Stayed in a room but would look into lakeside cabin next trip

The kitchen area is amazing. I only stayed for 1 night but have no doubt I will be choosing to stay here again. I was able to make breakfast in the morning. They have everything! Baking sheet,pots,pans, utensils and much more.

Clean & quiet
This place was very clean & quiet, no problems checking in, staff was very polite.
Alicia, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

Pictures are very misleading, so be aware of that. It’s a gamble what room you’ll get. Location is great though. I booked a comfort studio, they gave me a classic studio for half of the stay, I had to argue a little with them to give me the correct room. Average stay.

Great newly renovated room with kitchen. Perfect size for 2 people and great price. We wanted to add an extra night but had trouble reaching the front desk. It was low season but took a while to be able to add that night.
