Camp Richardson is a true historic Lake Tahoe treasure. The property is very family friendly from the beautiful beachfront to rustic cabins to walkable paths to bike rentals to a sweet ice cream coffee parlor as well as a well equipped General Store with convenient eatery. The cabins are truly no frills rustic, but equipped with the basics. The Historic Hotel is comfortable with clean rooms and a cozy lodge lobby. This was our families fourth summer enjoying a Lake Tahoe vacation. The kids love Camp Richardson for beach and proximity to exploring outdoors, so looks like we’ll be booking our 5th soon.

1st of all, there are no air conditioner in the room , they provide small fan which is hard to get in straight, Wi-Fi sucks, no hot water, no phone line to connect with employees, no room cleaner. It’s a terrible experienced in the hotel.

The location is amazing. Our room was facing the lake and conveniently next to the Grove restaurant. Room was basic but clean and the bed was very comfortable. The surrounding area is beautiful and there are a lot of options on your doorstep for activities.

As a solo traveler, I felt completely safe during my stay. The location was great, the staff was friendly, my room at the hotel was decently sized with a big closet, and private bathroom. The bed was a little too firm for my liking but it was acceptable. I had a street facing room and had my windows open at night. I did wake up quite a bit due to traffic noise. Other than that, it was a comfortable stay and I would stay here again.

The area is beautiful and provides easy access to the lake and mountain activities. The issue is with the facility itself. Four night stay with only one of those providing hot water. Cold showers aren’t the end of the world but I expected more. The hotel has no a/c services so you hope having wide open windows would bring in some cool air. Unfortunately, the room would get really hot during the day and didn’t really cool down until after 10 pm each night. Perhaps the idea was hot rooms and cold showers would balance each other out. If that’s not your idea of a good time then definitely look elsewhere.
