The pictures fooled me. The property is decent but wouldn’t recommend. Our tv didn’t work and they asked us if we wanted to change room but the showers would not work. Two complete different things if you ask me.

It was our first time staying in the more tourist area of South Lake Tahoe and was very happy with the location of the property. It was easy to walk to restaurants, shops and the lake. Would absolutely recommend.

I liked the comvenience of this property's location, easy parking, close to all the main areas and yet nestled back away from the buzz. Decor was cool and room are nice, with view to the mountain

Ideal location for the Stateline, Heavenly area. Lots of restaurants and shopping. Quick walk to the Heavenly gondola. Nicely remodeled older motel. Could use a little more maintenance. Some things are showing their age a bit. Loved the hot tubs and the fire pit areas.

This place was comfortable, clean and staff was great. If your a light sleeper bring ear plugs. If anyone is above you the building creeks. Don’t think we would stay again.

Had a great stay. Chill vibes. Walking distance to casinos and Heavenly village. Nice little restaurant/pub. Kids loved making s'mores at the outside fire pits. Downsides were that most vehicles were not parked within the lines in the covered parking area which prevented almost every other stall from being used. Outside parking lot was a little icy and you had to be extra careful when walking. There’s stairs to get to all the rooms. So, not recommended if traveling with elderly or people with mobility issues. Also, we were on the top floor but could hear people walking back and forth in their boots in the rooms next to us. I’m assuming it’s louder if you’re staying in the room below. Other than that, the place was perfect for a young couple or small family

Love the location of this hotel. It’s super close to all the casinos/restaurants but it’s also away enough to be a mellow spot. Our room was spacious and clean. Felt safe while on property. Our room had a small balcony.. love it but it was too cold to be outside. Parking is limited but we found a spot. Love the beer garden/common areas this place offers. Overall— it was a good stay and I’d come back.

Comfy, quirky, fun!

I love how warm the rooms are, and they are comfortable for a weekend of skiing. I love the beds but the pillows could use some help. Having the beer pub in the hotel is also great and drinking cider while making s'mores outdoors has been a good end of ski day The coffee shop in the lobby is also a good deal for getting some caffeine before hitting the slopes. A bit of a walk to the Gondola but rent a locker and all is well!

We had a lovely stay at Basecamp. The staff was friendly, room was clean, and price was amazing. The location is perfect, as you can walk to many restaurants and to the Heavenly gondola. The walls are very thin so bring earplugs if you are a light sleeper. Otherwise it was great for our family!
