This place is small but centrally located and right across the street from Gar Woods, great restaurant. All said, nothing fancy at all. No blow dryer, no ironing board. Just very simple. Needs a remodel and paint job. The beds were comfortable. We are in our mid 60’s and I think younger folks would do well in a place like this b/c the price was very good. Oh, the man working at the desk was very nice. ##### Tanya Stayed 1 night in Jun 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Dan Aug 3, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities Good location for no nonsense room for a reasonable cost. ##### Dan Stayed 1 night in Aug 2023 ### 8/10 Good #### Catherine Aug 25, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities room was prefect for what I needed.

The lodge is strategically located in Carnelian Bay, where we could have a beautiful view of Tahoe just with a 5 minutes walk. There were also convenient store and laundry nearby. The only downside was the slight smell of the old property, and the place could feel quite stuffy in summer. ##### Evan Stayed 3 nights in Jul 2024 ### 6/10 Okay #### Jennifer Jul 28, 2025 Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities This property is in serious need of an upgrade. The furniture is from the 70s, the carpet needs removing, the blinds hadn’t been dusted in a long while, there is no AC or coffee pot, flat pillows, and clearly there had been bugs in the bathroom that got sprayed as they were still there stuck to the floor. The Expedia picture is very misleading. The exterior isn’t cute wooden and warm -it’s worn dorm and hasn’t been painted in many years. When I arrived, the keys to my room were in an envelope with my name on it on the door of the office and they are actual keys - not key cards. It’s great that you can walk across the street to the lake and we really only needed place to sleep so I guess it worked in that regard and it was cheaper for summer Tahoe prices but def not what I expected for $130 a night. ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/595f3edc-f554-4338-9d37-d7d407ea3546-1753718425067.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/8ff4245e-9f1d-4fc0-a05d-6fd8d3f2cebf-1753718424267.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/26289446-758a-4d86-bd62-02726d5305b4-1753718424430.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Jennifer Stayed 1 night in Jul 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### David Apr 3, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service This property is not upscale but my stay was fine. Room was clean, hot water hot, and mattress acceptable. It was substantially less expensive than anything near it. It is at a busy intersection for near lake front property so there was some road noise during the night, but the place was better than I expected and much better than I feared it could have been. ##### David Stayed 1 night in Apr 2024 ### 4/10 Poor #### Myles Oct 8, 2024 Disliked: Amenities This is an old basic motel. It appears to be a one person operation. And that person does their best to assist. That said, the beds are somewhere between firm and rock hard. On 2 occasions get hot water required a call to the front desk. Our shower moved back and forth between cool and too hot. Location is good. Across from the Lake and Garwoods ##### Myles Stayed 3 nights in Oct 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### JoAnn Jan 28, 2024 Liked: Staff & service, room comfort #### Dog friendly space and place Great location for a stay with our dog. Right across the street from a dog friendly park where she could swim. Nice amenities. Large space making it comfortable to have our dog. Older property that with some attention, deep cleaning, and care could be a real stellar place. Loved the shower. Bed, which wasn’t very comfortable, had a plastic bag under sheets which was annoying every time we moved around—most likely to protect from pets. Extensions to the plug behind the bed could make it easier to charge devices. Great potential! Bargain price. We’d stay again. ##### JoAnn Stayed 1 night in Jan 2024 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Legacy Villas private villa w/ view- steps to pool- bikes & arcade game included](https://www.expedia.ca/Palm-Springs-Hotels-Come-Get-Away-From-It-All-In-Beautiful-La-Quinta-Legacy-Villas-Next-Location.h20913496.Hotel-Information) > > [V Palm Springs](https://www.expedia.ca/Palm-Springs-Hotels-The-V.h13065796.Hotel-Information) > > [The Ritz-Carlton Bacara, Santa Barbara](https://www.expedia.ca/Santa-Barbara-Hotels-The-Ritz-Carlton-Bacara.h523758.Hotel-Information) > > [The Ritz-Carlton, Rancho Mirage](https://www.expedia.ca/Palm-Springs-Hotels-The-Ritz-Carlton.h23876.Hotel-Information) > > [Tommy Bahama Miramonte Resort & Spa](https://www.expedia.ca/Palm-Springs-Hotels-Miramonte-Indian-Wells-Resort-Spa.h16768.Hotel-Information) > > [Indian Wells Resort Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Palm-Springs-Hotels-Indian-Wells-Resort-Hotel.h14026.Hotel-Information) > > [Hilton Grand Vacations Club Palm Desert](https://www.expedia.ca/Palm-Springs-Hotels-Embarc-Palm-Desert.h328421.Hotel-Information) > > [Two Bunch Palms Spa Resort - Adults Only](https://www.expedia.ca/Palm-Springs-Hotels-Two-Bunch-Palms-Spa-Resort-Adults-Only.h1338988.Hotel-Information) > > [Marriott's Desert Springs Villas I](https://www.expedia.ca/Palm-Springs-Hotels-Marriotts-Desert-Springs-Villas-I.h661796.Hotel-Information) > > [JW Marriott Desert Springs Resort & Spa](https://www.expedia.ca/Palm-Springs-Hotels-JW-Marriott-Desert-Springs-Resort-Spa.h17123.Hotel-Information) > > [Residence Inn By Marriott Palm Desert](https://www.expedia.ca/Palm-Springs-Hotels-Residence-Inn-By-Marriott-Palm-Desert.h201084.Hotel-Information) > > [Homewood Suites by Hilton La Quinta](https://www.expedia.ca/Palm-Springs-Hotels-Homewood-Suites-By-Hilton-La-Quinta-CA.h1527904.Hotel-Information) > > [Agua Caliente Casino Rancho Mirage](https://www.expedia.ca/Palm-Springs-Hotels-Agua-Caliente-Resort-Casino-Spa-Rancho-Mirage.h2020169.Hotel-Information) > > [The Sandman Santa Rosa Sonoma, an Ascend Collection Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Santa-Rosa-Hotels-The-Sandman.h919721.Hotel-Information) > > [The Westin Rancho Mirage Golf Resort & Spa](https://www.expedia.ca/Palm-Springs-Hotels-The-Westin-Mission-Hills-Golf-Resort-Spa.h4124.Hotel-Information) > > [ The Westin Mission Hills Resort & Villas for COACHELLA 2020 (1st weekend)](https://www.expedia.ca/Palm-Springs-Hotels-Cochella-Stay-At-The-Westin-Mission-Hills-Resort-Villas.h34078793.Hotel-Information) > > [Fantasy Springs Resort Casino](https://www.expedia.ca/Palm-Springs-Hotels-Fantasy-Springs-Resort-Casino.h1138282.Hotel-Information) > > [Renaissance Esmeralda Resort & Spa, Indian Wells](https://www.expedia.ca/Palm-Springs-Hotels-Renaissance-Esmeralda-Resort-Spa.h12274.Hotel-Information) > > [Desert Breezes Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Palm-Springs-Hotels-Desert-Breezes-Resort.h18709.Hotel-Information) > > [Hyatt Vacation Club at Desert Oasis](https://www.expedia.ca/Palm-Springs-Hotels-Welk-Resorts-Palm-Springs.h1140793.Hotel-Information) > > [Marriott's Shadow Ridge I-The Villages](https://www.expedia.ca/Palm-Springs-Hotels-Marriotts-Shadow-Ridge.h853695.Hotel-Information) > > [Sea Mountain Inn Nude Resort and Spa - Adults Only](https://www.expedia.ca/Palm-Springs-Hotels-Sea-Mountain-Inn-Nude-Resort-Adults-Only.h27490625.Hotel-Information) > > [DoubleTree by Hilton Hotel Golf Resort Palm Springs](https://www.expedia.ca/Palm-Springs-Hotels-DoubleTree-By-Hilton-Hotel-Golf-Resort-Palm-Springs.h351.Hotel-Information) > > [SeaCrest OceanFront Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/San-Luis-Obispo-Hotels-SeaCrest-OceanFront-Hotel.h1365352.Hotel-Information) > > [Omni Rancho Las Palmas Resort & Spa](https://www.expedia.ca/Palm-Springs-Hotels-Omni-Rancho-Las-Palmas-Resort-Spa.h1703.Hotel-Information) > > [The Westin Desert Willow Villas, Palm Desert](https://www.expedia.ca/Palm-Springs-Hotels-The-Westin-Desert-Willow-Villas.h3304313.Hotel-Information) > > [Marriott's Desert Springs Villas II](https://www.expedia.ca/Palm-Springs-Hotels-Marriotts-Desert-Springs-Villas-II.h57218.Hotel-Information) > > [La Quinta Resort & Club, Curio Collection by Hilton](https://www.expedia.ca/Palm-Springs-Hotels-La-Quinta-Resort-Club.h10916.Hotel-Information) > > [Embassy Suites La Quinta Hotel & Spa](https://www.expedia.ca/Palm-Springs-Hotels-Embassy-Suites-La-Quinta-Hotel-Spa.h1356296.Hotel-Information)
