Uncomfortable
We had driven 6 hours & were looking forward to our stay in Lake Tahoe. Our room's heater didn't work & the portable heater didn't work. It was November & very cold outside & our room was very cold. We called the office & they sent a man to check the heater & he informed us that it was broken & needed to replacing. He said someone would be there in 15 minutes to replace. We waited 30 minutes & no one came. The office was closed by this time & we couldn't ask for another room.
There were also dead & crispy bugs on the floor next to the sliding glass door. Apparently, the floor had not been cleaned in some time. The couch was heavily stained & dirty. We didn't want sleep in that room, so we collected all our baggage & left within the hour & drove done the road to another hotel, which luckily had vacancy.
It's too bad because it was right on the beach & we spent a lot of time looking online for a lake setting.
Don't recommend.

More than fairly priced condo!!
We enjoyed our stay here!! We were only in town for a few days for a wedding and didn’t get a chance to use the amenities, but the front desk did let us know of everything TSR offered. The condo was clean and well stocked and the beds were super comfortable. Would definitely stay here again if I’m ever back in the area

The area is very tranquil
Our room was facing the lake,
Which was great.
The Matress in Murphy bed was pretty uncomfortable.. Special for the first night..

The rooms were fine on the first floor and our view of courtyard and lake amazing. Room itself is very dated and the sleeper couch not very comfortable. The only bedroom is tight with less than 9 inches on either side of the bed. I was also surprised that the hotel office was only open from 9 to 5

Would not stay here again. Room had a smell to it went to Safeway to buy a febreeze. My biggest complaint are the mattress, old spring mattress that are dented in the middle did not sleep entire night. Atleast upgrade the mattress, everything inside this place is original from the 1945. The only good thing about this place is the beach access.

Perfect for a one night stay if you are not expecting much beyond a bed and bathroom.. Great location, but not a lot of amenities for a "resort". Don't expect much, but great for our needs.

Excellent place to stay with a private beach and a nice area with BBQs to use. The apartment had everything we needed and was quite spacious. Decoration is a bit out of date but that's reflected in the price. Staff were very helpful.

Walls were paper thin. Facilities are older. The highway splits the property so had to walk across the highway to get to the beach.

The area around the property was very nice, a private beach, volleyball, pool, hot tub sauna, very close to Safeway and restaurants
however the room had sooo much dust. THE SOFA and In between the closet had cobwebs that made me wonder if they even changed our bedsheets.. I requested new everything for my peace of mind. The backup sheets had a few insects inside.The room had a particular smell that I had to buy febreeze to make it better. I would rate it a 5 but the cleaning needs to IMPROVE A LOT AND NOT JUST DO a superficial clean. THE ROOM I STAYED AT NEEDS A DEEP DEEP CLEAN. Also the carpets were black! I couldn't stop sneezing whenever I was in the room.

This was one of the best places I have ever stayed. I wasn’t sure what to expect but it far exceeded my expectations. The room was clean, spacey and had everything we could possibly need. The location of the beach was amazing, just a few feet away and it was such a pleasant surprise. We paddle boarded and renting equipment was super easy. The playground and grassy area was awesome, and added so much to our stay. I will definitely be planning another stay here!!

The location is great, right near the lake with beach access. Grand central yard for sports activities. Some water toys that we never got to use because of weather condition in the afternoons.(windy and stormy) The unit is confortable with small kitchen, the bed just full size, we were snug but confortable. The restroom shower is poorly design and does fit a tall person.
