Everything was great and the gentleman at the front desk was amazing. Beds were not really queen sized and a little uncomfortable, but water pressure in the shower, all the amenities and thinks to do on the property were amazing. Would definitely stay again!

Quick visit to the snow with kids. Liked the restaurant on property, made food easy for kids and we got to enjoy the beer selection. Room was clean, liked the balcony to drink coffee in the morning, pretty spot to watch snow fall.

We enjoyed the fire pits and listening to live music. Beer was very good. The hot tub was really a swimming pool for kids. No room service offered. We picked up what we needed from the front desk.

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

If you are looking for a relaxing place this is it. Easy access to the Casino's, Heavenly Ski Resort, Shopping and dinning. The beds were extremely comfortable.

Centrally located . Eco friendly property. Clean room and bathroom. No balcony in a double queen room., but looks like other rooms had it. The new renovation or may be the cleaning supplies leave a real pungent smell in the room. Not a foul smell but really strong varnish kind. But you get habituated after a while. Could have smelled better.

We stayed here during a cheer competition. Clean, and easy check in. Walking distance to the other hotels and heavenly village. Our room was above their coffee shop so the first morning we heard everything below us, which I accidently thought it was the room next to us banging. They have a text option when needing to get in touch with them, which made things very easy, and they were very quick to respond. There wasn't an elevator so if you have issues with stairs you will need to request a bottom floor room. My husband and I would stay here again for the price.

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!
