The Shops at Heavenly Village

I’ve been coming here since I was a kid, traveling with my folks. The place is definitely showing its age. I come back every year because it is convenient to south shore activities. But on Tues 7/1/25, I woke at 6:50am to drilling noises directly above my room. Clearly there was construction activity, which is totally understandable in an old building. But why so early in the morning? Maybe wait till 8 or even 9am when most people will be awake. I think I’ll reconsider our future stays and instead opt for newer properties on the California side of the state line. As for the casino? Well, clearly it is still the realm of the smokers. Despite the trend toward lower smoking rates in the US, smokers still rule in casinos. In Vegas, I suppose, newer ventilation systems make the smoke pollution less obnoxious. But Tahoe casinos haven’t caught up to their flashier cousins to the south. Bring extra changes of clothes if you plan on even just passing through the Harrah’s casino.

Quiet in summertime..next time we will ask for a room in the back to avoid pool noise however. Good restaurants in area (a few)- amazed that people left trash near the pool area- and wasn't picked up in the morning.

Great place the room is excellent ❤️
