Staff was super kind and location is nice. Walls are thin and we could hear everything next door, when the heater runs it’s loud and woke us up during the night.

Cody and the crew are rockstars. Everyone on staff was more than happy to help with any questions or needs that came up for my wife and I. The grounds are very nice as well. The room itself was just fine for us. We found it plenty clean and comfortable. We’re pretty low maintenance so if you’d need more than a warm room, a bed, a tv, and a hot shower, this might not be the place for you. There’s some good eats in walking distance (we went to Margaritas and the Burger Lounge) along with a 7/11 and a cool thrift store about a block away. Oh and this place is pet friendly too! This was the second time we’ve stayed here and we’re sold. Thanks!

LOVE IT!

By far one of the best places we’ve stayed at in Lake Tahoe! What made it even more convenient was the fact that we had a stovetop so we saved so much money on going out to eat! Staff was very friendly and so was the front desk manager! I would definitely recommend staying here again!!!

Staff was super nice. But I had a problem with my outlet in the bathroom not working, there was a hole in the wall leading to outside for a pipe going through the room which let in yellow jackets to our room.

Family Cabin

We really liked the family cabin. It had it's own entrance which was nice. You could tell it was an old building but had a modern day vibe. There's a burger place right next door in case you get hungry.
