The only thing I was concerned about was the s’mores in the Ziploc bags. After people were using them, it seemed like they ended up scattered around, which isn’t great for the environment or for animals that might get into the plastic. Maybe next time something compostable or eco-friendly could be used, especially in the Tahoe area.

Absolutely terrible noise from the beach area. Room is not sound proof even with patio closed and AC on. AC doesn't cool well. AC is also very noisy. The beach is very dirty, very public and music is blaring from the bar all day. The staff was not courteous and helpful. Hotel website doesn't mention that they give parking permit for 1 car per room. My group has 2 cars. The staff didn't accommodate our situation at all and threatened to tow away the other car if parked on property without permit. Absolutely rude girl at the front desk. If you are looking for serenity, this is not the place for you.

I liked it was on the water. I didn’t like that you pay that much to stay and it’s like a frat party and Anyone is allowed on the beach. The beds and pillows were awful I’m legit in pain from sleeping there. The front desk lady was rude to our kids with an attitude. Cleaning people knocked and while my son looked out the peep hole they just opened the door and hit him in the nose. Like who just walks into a room. My shower leaked all over the floor. Needs to be updated for almost $900 for 2 nights. There was also a wedding there on the beach. A lil awkward with sooo many people.

The room smelled to the point took me awhile to fall asleep. Also the bathroom flush was broken, the drawers on the nightstand didn’t stay closed. Very noisy upstairs and had to deal with the drunk neighbor who came back to the room at 3:30 am and decided to have a no nice conversation with her friends. Restaurant at the pier took 1 h and 20 min to serve us ( and the rest of the clients) and they didn’t apologize or give any reason. They at last pay for the drinks. We do not recommended to stay here.

Nice place. Clean and very fun. Beach access is the perk of the resort. We walked about 5 minutes from our room to the lake. Loved it. Our new Tahoe retreat. I will say. They need ice machines on every floor.

Had an absolutely amazing stay. Check in was quick and easy! We got a partial lake view and unfortunately got there a little later than we wanted so there wasn’t a lot of options left but the front desk rep went over our options and the pros and cons of each, including noise levels explaining about the DJ near the Tiki bar. We were given drink tokens for our welcome drink and s’mores kits right away. I was a little hesitant about staying here as I had read all the bad reviews and was pleasantly surprised when we walked in the room and it smelled fresh and was very clean including towels and sheets. Would have to say if planning on using the beach, get there early it does fill up, especially when there are events. It is on the pricier side but definitely worth it in my opinion. We will definitely be staying here again!
