Hilton Vacation Club Lake Tahoe Resort South

10/10 Excellent

"Muy agradable"

Camp Richardson Historic Resort

10/10 Excellent

"My husband and I stayed here for our honeymoon and it was wonderful! The hot tub was very relaxing and we were steps from the beach. The staff was very helpful and upgraded our room. The room was a bit hot from no AC, but the staff gave us a fan to use. The resort is very rustic and cozy!"

Hotel Azure

10/10 Excellent

"The property was slightly older, very well maintained and clean. Daily room service. The pool and hot tubs were both very clean and never crowded. The best part is the view is excellent! Choose the lake view! Close to lots of shops and restaurants. Right across the road from a small lake access! Would recommend, we will be back."
