Great bed, linens were nice, towels were fluffy. The staff was pleasant and helpful at each interaction. Had a great cup of coffee in the lobby for a very fair price. Had dinner across the street at Jake’s On The Lake, a Tahoe favorite!

Javier, 1-night trip

8/10 Good

Only stayed one night. I didn’t have enough time to really see the grounds due to the short stay and being tired from a day at the lake. The location was good walkable and just a short drive to kings beach. The complaint I have is that the shower head was terrible could barely wash the soap off your body.
Samuel, 1-night trip

10/10 Excellent

I was so pleasantly surprised with this property. I was nervous from some older photos but they renovated this beautifully the room did have a slightly musty smell but it was clean and exactly what we needed for our road trip. The staff was nice but not overly friendly. Would love complimentary coffee in the morning though! My kids loved the games though. We’d come back for sure.

Barb, 1-night trip

10/10 Excellent

I loved everything about Base Camp! It’s right across from the lake, right in the heart of Tahoe City, and an easy 10 mins drive to Alpine Meadows. Rooms were spotless, quiet, and the staff fantastic. Would recommend this to anyone wanting a quiet, safe, clean place to stay while in Tahoe.
Meghan, 3-night trip

8/10 Good

A very nice little room to stay three nights in this beautiful area. You can walk in a few minutes to the lake. Parking in front of your room. There are several nice restaurants and especially Rosis Café where you get real good meals. Prices are ok.
