Top Tahoe City Hotel Reviews

Mother Nature's Inn

10/10 Excellent

"Even though we had to call the online answering service they were very helpful, they let us stow our luggage before check-in and have us a late check out. Great service.."

3, 4 or 5 BRD/Baths, filtered views, fenced backyard, private beach/park access

8/10 Good

"The location was ideal. We used the community beach access daily. The beach was rocky, but the kids loved the raft in the swimming area. Lots of recreational activities, basketball, volleyball etc. We loved that restaurants were within walking distance. Tahoe City was a short drive. We had a few minor issues due to a storm the prior week that were addressed promptly. The house was stocked with shampoo/conditioner/bodywash/dish soap etc. The hot tub was clean and a nice bonus. We hope to return again. Thank you, Laure"

4BD/3BA Northshore Condo Lakeview 2 Master Suites Sleeps up to 8 Great Value

10/10 Excellent

"We loved staying at the condo. It is a great complex with close proximity to amenities. Our kids loved the beach and jumping off the dock. We’ve stayed at other units and this one was much quieter and had a beautiful deck we sat out at each evening for dinner."

Family Reunion Tahoe Rental

8/10 Good

"Communication with the host was excellent and prompt. This cabin has wonderful 5-star amenities and cleanliness. Parking was adequate for our family, and the location was close to activities we had planned - hiking, frisbee golf, beaches, playgrounds, and shopping. Bedrooms were comfortable and roomy, with plenty of bedding and towels. The kitchen is well-stocked with dishes, pots and pans, utensils, a large refrigerator, and a large gas cook stove. We enjoyed the living areas, kitchen, and spacious outside deck areas. All in all, we had a great time and this cabin met our needs well. We happened to visit during one of the warmest weeks of the summer, and the cabin was quite warm during late afternoon and early evening hours. We were very thankful for all the fans in every room, and the cabin cooled off well during the overnight hours."
