Basecamp Tahoe South, hotel in South Lake Tahoe

Featuring a rooftop hot tub, Basecamp Tahoe South is 5 minutes’ walk to Heavenly Mountain ski area and the Lake Tahoe shore. Free WiFi is available in all rooms.

Great place to stay when visiting the lake. The rooms are really nicely decorated, felt modern and spacious. The outdoor space is the real gem of this place, live music, great beer, outdoor games and fire pits. We loved sitting out by the fire on an evening. Also just a very short walk to the lake itself!

Cedar Inn & Suites, hotel in South Lake Tahoe

Situated at the California-Nevada border, this Lake Tahoe hotel is a 5-minute walk from Harvey’s Casino and Edgewood Golf Course. Spacious guest rooms offer free WiFi.

The location itself is not exactly picturesque, but the "inn" is very close to Lake Tahoe, so it depends on what you are looking for! The room is equipped with a small microwave and a coffee machine - both were clean (surprisingly considering the room itself!).

FAQs about hotels in South Lake Tahoe








Sun, Ski, Fun and Scenery

South Lake Tahoe has made up for its relatively short history by rapidly developing into America’s all-year playground. The natural surrounds of the Sierra Nevada and Lake Tahoe provide winter and water sports enthusiasts with plenty of action, and its well-renowned nightlife and proximity to Stateline in Nevada satisfies the partygoers.

There are a multitude of restaurants, bars and dance clubs set back from its sandy or rocky shores that are open around the clock. Jump aboard the old Mississippi paddle wheeler Tahoe Queen as she ploughs her way through the intense blue waters of the lake or you can choose for muscle power by going canoeing.

Not far from North America’s largest alpine lake is Heavenly Ski Resort that features an abundance of world-class ski runs all serviced by a large number of quality ski lifts. The runs provide something for everyone from beginners to the more experienced, and snowboarders to cross-country skiers.

The astonishing wilderness that surrounds South Lake Tahoe can be explored on mountain bike or by boat. Emerald Bay is particularly impressive with the magnificent Vikingsholm castle hidden amongst the pine-infested hills.

Booking.com offers something for every taste whether it is a skiing resort, lakeside lodge, luxury hotel or backpacker hostel.

    So many beautiful places to see!

    So many beautiful places to see! We loved exploring several trails and visiting some of the beaches. Some trails and at least one beach are an easy walk from town (Lakeside Beach). For others, you will need to drive (Emerald Bay or Pope Beach). The children loved the beach, hiking up to the waterfall, and playing in the pool and hot tubs where we stayed. (Although we enjoyed visiting the lookout at Emerald Bay and hiking up to Eagle Falls, there isn't much parking in the area so getting there early in the morning is a must.)

    Lake Tahoe is a stunning beauty.

    Lake Tahoe is a stunning beauty. South Lake Tahoe has a variety of outdoor activities year round. There are a couple of blocks of casinos if you are into that, otherwise skip that area. Traffic is quite heavy most of the year, so pack your patience.

    South Lake Tahoe was a wonderful and relaxing vacation.

    South Lake Tahoe was a wonderful and relaxing vacation. So much to do and see. Lots of hiking trails that allow you to enjoy the beauty of the area, but it also provides great entertainment. We went and saw Nikki Glaser at one of the many casinos. Also, the amount of restaurants at multiple price points that served good food was a pleasant surprise! We recommend both the Sage Room and Himmel Haus. Overall, South Lake Tahoe is a great vacation spot and I would definitely visit again.

    South lake Tahoe is a nice place to visit. I love the fresh air and the smell of the Sierras. The restaurants are okay, they try to make you think that they have all this amazing dining experiences, but they're just pretty much mediocre everywhere you go.

    It's very difficult to figure out where to go to play in the snow & parking is a nightmare wherever you go. Traffic is bad. The casinos don't even try to entertain you or tease you. The slots just take your money without even stringing you along. The slots totally sucked, especially compared to Indian casinos & that includes all the casinos in South Lake, as well as North Lake.

    The Alder Inn was such a cute place to stay! It was in a great location in South Tahoe that made it easy to access everything that I wanted to do while there. It was also within walking distance to restaurants and shopping! The Alder Inn definitely provided the more rustic experience that I wanted to have while staying in Tahoe (I didn't want to stay at a hotel/casino). It was clean, the staff was friendly, and it felt super homey! I would for sure recommend this place to friends and I would absolutely stay there again!

    The location is awesome, very central to South Lake, and walking distance to restaurants, casinos, and ski lifts. I love that they are so welcoming to dogs- we took our two pups on the trip with us, and they loved their stay just as much as we did. One of the reasons why we love coming to Lake Tahoe is because it is such a dog friendly destination, and we will keep coming back to Lake Tahoe and to Hotel Becket.

    Nicely positioned affordable motel right off the central main street in South Lake Tahoe. Trenton the manager gave us a great couple of recommendations for dinner which were only a short walk away. Plenty of parking. Great bagels and plenty of coffee in the morning for breakfast, but fruit hadn't been delivered that day. We were invited to leave our car parked after checkout while we explored the town

    I felt the hotel serviced my needs without being anything beyond the extraordinary. I know Tahoe will be pricey so I was glad to be in the vicinity of the activities I was going to be participating in. Location was indeed great. Close to shopping and dining. Within walking distance of the casinos if you're into that kind of thing. A clean, quiet place to spend a night.
