Hospitality is #1
This place was awesome! The view, nature around you, secluded from the business of Lake Tahoe, cleanliness of the rooms and loved their outdoor tables and seating area. The host Han is amazing and his hospitality is beyond what I have ever experienced when staying at an Inn, hotel or motel. I highly recommend staying here and I would definitely come back!

Staff super friendly and provided us with generous amount of snack/food. They’ve renovated an old motel so everything feels new. The walls are thin and rooms are small but having a fridge and microwave was super nice. Our family enjoyed staying here for going to Kirkwood skiing trip.
