Ideal location for a visit to South Lake Tahoe without spending a fortune. Keep in mind that it's a motel so don't expect luxurious accommodations, but was clean and they had free parking. The two people at the front desk (perhaps the owners) were really nice. thanks

It was a very good experience. It’s not our first visit to this motel; 3rd I believe. They have repainted the outside so almost didn’t recognize the place. The rooms appear to have new carpet and we were very happy with the microwave and refrigerator. The beds are comfortable, and it has working air conditioning in all rooms. The property is close to town and is walkable to the outdoor concert venue formerly known as Harvey’s. Had a wonderful time and will definitely stay again!

Nice big room. Friendly staff. Great location. Clean. What more could you ask for. I even liked the coffee that they used for the in-room coffee maker. The only slightly negative things that I would have to say is that the refrigerator was a little loud at times but at least they have a fridge! Also, the pool and spa were closed. In these days of hotels raising prices while cutting amenities, it’s nice to have a room with a fridge, microwave, coffee maker, free parking and free internet. Blue Lake Inn, please don’t change.
