This was an adorable cabin, perfect for our needs as a family of four. It was clean, comfortable, and very quiet. It is situated in the perfect area with restaurants, coffee shops, and a grocery store super close by. I have no complaints and would love to stay here again!

Great weekend getaway spot.

Nice cabin just on the Main Street with everything nearby. Was initially a little disappointed that it had no AC, but at night it cools down to 65-68 with the windows cracked and fans on so it ended up being no big deal. Overall very nice for a good weekend getaway.

Emerald Bay Ridge is an 8/10 stay for me. A family member had previously stayed here and recommended it. Some of the notable benefits include its proximity to a shopping center, which is convenient for last-minute purchases or forgotten items. The property features two larger cabins with full kitchens and additional space. I stayed in one of the smaller cabins, which can accommodate 4-5 people, featuring one king bed and two full-size bunk beds. The cabin has a small fridge, one restroom, and modern fixtures, including a microwave and Keurig. However, please note that hot water is limited, so showers should be staggered. The area is great for kids to play, with a gated access to the basketball court behind the fence. We attempted to roast s’mores over the table, but it was experiencing electrical issues or low propane. Keep in mind that there is no room service, as no manager or housekeeper is on the premises. Their main phone line and email are not operational, and the only way to obtain information is through a third-party service. The place was quiet during sleep, although you may hear some car traffic noise from the nearby main road.

I love how it’s close to everything from Tube tahoe and other surrounding stores even a community hospital. It wasn’t what I saw from the photos but a great place to stay for 2 adults and 2 kids. We had the ease of checking in early (with additional fee of course) but it kept us warm and cozy during an expected snow rain. Thank you Emerald Bay Village! Will definitely come back again!

Kind a cute place, nicely decorated cabin. Centrally located in Emerald Bay village. Taking a shower however was another story. The shower designed made it very difficult to have a shower without bumping onto the shower faucet.

Sour Tahoe Mini Resort with Cabins

Great gem in South Lake Tahoe, close to dining (Elmers and the Y restaurants/Cuppa Tahoe) and Raleys. Convenient to I-50 and exploring S Tahoe. Loved our two bedroom cabin with kitchenette. Comfy. Clean. Nice extras like coffee and tea, creamers etc, toaster, microwave and mini fridge made for ability to “cook” basics and store leftovers, extra blankets, bedside “white noise machines” and ceiling fans made rooms cozy for sleeping. Loved that they supplied shampoo/conditioner and hairdryer as extra touches, plus roomy closets and comfy beds with lots of pillows. Outside shared seating area with bbq and games like cornhole, made for nice spot to hang out under the trees. Definitely will stay again!

Needs cleaning improvement

We stayed in cottage 2 Bayview, which is a 2 bedroom condo. It’s tiny. It worked for 3 of us, but will be too tight for 4 people for sure. Living area sofa is a two sitter, three people can only fit in sitting tightly close to each other. Kitchenette is fully stocked and very convenient, but lacks dishwasher and hot water has no pressure. In general it’s a newly renovated place nice and modern, but it lacks general cleaning. There is so much dust on the door trim and shelves and watermarks on tiles in the bathroom, looks like cleaners are doing really poor job. I provided my feedback to property management, hopefully they take it to consideration.

Nice

We stayed in the deluxe room, a nice little room right for us and our 7 year old son who loved his bunk bed. Appreciate their thoughtful items well prepared for guests like emergency flash light, different sizes of ziplock bags, eco-friendly utensils, soft throws....It's all good except sound insulation. We could hear the crying baby clearly and what people said from the attached room during our two night stays.... It is a little gem in the area if you are not a light sleeper. The pillows and bed are soft kind. Parking right outside the room door. Location is convenient.

Very nice, well-stocked, clean, compact room in a great location, but... upcharges. No staff on site and electronic check-in was a pain. Especially as the wifi was spotty during check-in, and for most of the night. And I was able to report on the wifi for most of the night, as the bed aggravated my backaches, and I could barely sleep. Im sure others have had a better experience, but I myself wont be back.

We booked this place on Christmas Day for two nights and when we arrived, the place was not cleaned at all - at all…. There were towels everywhere (also on the floor), and the bed was a mess… anything that you can imagine. We called and messaged the contact multiple times to talk about alternatives with no response…. We then subsequently called multiple times and still no response….. We have also reached out to have Expedia to contact the property but also had no resolution. We had no option on that day, but to move to another hotel at the last minute, on the Christmas Day, and of course at an extremely high price. We have contacted the property for a refund, but received no response either. While looking at all the reviews now, it seems this is not the first time the visitor has this issue…. So just be mindful.
