The staff is readily available with a sinple text message. The property is very well groomed and the rooms have excellent climate control in the winter. Best location hands down.
We love this place and call it our secret hideaway. It has a fireplace, is well appointed with dishes, sink, microwave and mini fridge with freezer; assigned parking is a bonus And dogs are welcome. Super easy automatic check-in and out, walking distance to the beach, walking and hiking trails, a ciffee shop, Mexican food take-out and Heavenly Gondola. Shhh.. don't tell anyone. We wish to keep this place all to ourselves.

Room was clean upon arrival. Customer service was quick to respond with questions
Great property in the perfect location. Stayed with 2 other couples and everyone was very happy with the stay. Once you get there you can walk to almost anything you need so that made it even better. Great updated decor and kitchen was stocked with all the essentials. Only thing that caught us of guard was that two of the three rooms did not have bathrooms so those couples had to walk downstairs when they needed to. Not a huge deal but was a touch inconvenient. Overall I would definitely stay here again. Location alone makes it worth it.
It was such a pleasure to come back to a clean and updated room after our busy days in South Lake Tahoe. We’ve stayed at other inns and nothing really compares! The hotel staff was also great at responding fast, so even if we had questions, I knew they’d be available to answer without delay. I’ll definitely be booking again!

Wonderful stay most comfortable place and very relaxing with a nice fire place inside
This place is great, what you see in the pictures is truly what you get! They’ve thought of every detail for your room and the space around you. We couldn’t have enjoyed our stay more :)
We had a wonderful stay here. Beautifully remodeled rooms with EV chargers available and close to Heavenly. Loved the fireplace in the room, as well. We’ll definitely be back!
Stay was great, super cozy room with electric fireplace. Had some issues with code door due to the pressure but the front desk staff were really responsive and helpful in resolving the issue quickly. Would stay here again!
Fantastic little motel that has been updated! When looking for a more basic, but still nice trip to Tahoe this met all my needs and adding in the little fireplace was perfect!
