Heavenly Valley Lodge

Newly renovated in 2011. Managed by the Owners! All of our rooms were completely remodeled with brand new beds, linens and furnishings! Our goal is to make this a unique, wonderful and relaxing experience for our guests. We invite you to experience a Lake Tahoe stay like no other. Let us spoil you...We're good at it!!! Lake Tahoe has so much to offer and is also a great home base for skiing, boating, fishing, hiking, biking or just to relax in a beautiful serene location. It is also close to neighboring hot spots such as Yosemite, San Francisco, Napa Valley Wine tasting, and other Northern California & Nevada locations. The Heavenly Valley Lodge Bed & Breakfast is a quiet, Tahoe-Style property located at 1261 Ski Run Blvd just below the world-famous Heavenly Ski slopes, and only a 1/2 mile down to the shores of Lake Tahoe. The property is on a wooded acre and is very spacious and quiet.

Be sure to understand the rooms!

Stayed here for a couple nights in the bunkhouse cabin. Though the place was clean, the bunkhouse was tight space for three adults. There was a queen bed and a bunk bed right next to it. Barely had any room to navigate or place luggage. Felt very confining! Otherwise the bathroom shower had great water pressure and was nice to have a small kitchenette but for us, it was very cramped and didn’t feel very comfortable due to the size. Probably better for a couple with one kid but that’s it. Location was good though.

Fireside Lodge Bed and Breakfast

Tahoe's only all-inclusive premier bed and breakfast lodge.

Great place to make family memories

Reviewed By Tour51976899391

We hosted our sons wedding rehearsal dinner here. It was fantastic. Steven and Traci made our event fantastic. I wish we would have booked to stay there for the weekend. We hosted 50 people for dinner and it was a lot of fun. They made sure we had plenty of room for family. Steve put out corn hole for us and at the end of the evening we roasted marshmallows around their amazing fireplace. We had family from newborn to 89s with walkers and everyone was comfortable. We rented a few rooms for family and regretted not renting more rooms for us.

Welk Resorts Lake Tahoe - One Village Place

One Village Place is the perfect destination for your next luxury vacation in Lake Tahoe. When you aren't enjoying the sun and snow, you can take part in the shopping, dining, and activities that make Northstar Village world-famous-right outside our doors. Guests have access to the Village Swim Fitness Center, dry sauna, and an indoor/outdoor spa overlooking the village. For the ultimate in snow-filled luxury, you'll enjoy private, front-of-line access to Big Springs Express gondola, and the resort entrance is just a few steps away from the Village Express chairlift (both seasonal, ticket required). During summer, the mountain is home to the most extensive lift-served mountain bike terrains in the Western U.S. and travelers can relish in activities like roller skating, bungee trampoline, Apex mini-ropes challenge, gem panning, miniature golf, wine talks and so much more.

Worst place we ever stayed!

Reviewed By kualalyn

We booked 2 rooms for 4 adults for 2 nights for a family wedding in the area. First of all it cost $700.00 for those 2 days then the room (fairly clean) but we could not even open the “electric” drapes because the mechanism was broken with exposed wires! Then we wanted ice - no machines or even a ice tray. We call the “desk” and they said there was no ice but tomorrow if and when the store opened we might be able to get some there. The store did not open until 11. There was a restaurant on the grounds but it only opened from 11-3 and only for a couple of choices of extremely expensive sandwiches that only contained 1/2 the ingredients as described. We travel extensively but have never stayed in a place that used to have a great reputation. Since the Welk family sold this it has totally gone to the dogs - I don’t think even dogs would want to stay there now. We are embarrassed because we suggested this place to our family. Never, NEVER would I recommend this place to anyone! Guess we should have complained when there but there was NOT A soul around. Please save yourself the headache and stay at a local casino/hotel as I now wish we had.

Good location

Reviewed By julielovesparis

Pleasant enough for two nights. Room very clean. Roku tv confusing after figuring out how to hook up phone to stream shows could not get live tv to return. Reported it to the front desk on check out. Upstairs occupants noisy at midnight and beyond no phone in the room to ask someone for quiet . Parking lot full of frozen ice don’t they make snow blowers to clear snow before it turns to a mound of ice??? Plus is the location you can walk to a great restaurant Jake’s behind the motel and shopping is very close. Motel next to Safeway and Subway and a coffee house.

Wonderful location with a lot of history. Lake Tahoe, Truckee, and Reno are all very close for day trips. The valley itself is absolutely beautiful. We are looking forward to a return visit in the future.

Wonderful Stay in a Beautiful Location

Reviewed By SarahJasD

We stayed at Tahoma Meadows Cottages for 2 nights, and it gave us some much needed rest after visiting multiple cities. The area is beautiful and there is lots of hiking close by. The staff were very kind. Covid precautions are still in place, so we didn’t get a chance to experience the breakfast we’d seen people rave about in other reviews. They made sure we had plenty of food, tea, and coffee to have a good breakfast in our cottage each morning though.

Relaxing Getaway

Reviewed By laurahT2386KP

My family rented the 3 bedroom Sparrow cottage at Cedar Crest over the 4th of July weekend. The day before arrival they called to inform us that our refrigerator was broken and let us know we could either move to a different cottage or they would move in a dorm sized fridge for us. I appreciated the call and that they check things like that before your stay. They also gave us a discount for the inconvenience! The cottage was well equipped with everything you need. Pots and pans, cups , plates , silverware , toiletries . All the sinks had liquid soap and lotions which I appreciated. It was very spacious, nice and clean. We loved opening all the windows to let the fresh cool air in. It was a perfect location on the west shore with a beautiful bike/ walking trail right outside the cottage that went all along the lake. It was close to some really good restaurants ( Firesign, WestShore Cafe and the Tahoe bakery.) The only drawbacks to our stay were that our particular cottage was the closest to a busy road . It was pretty noisy when you had the windows open , but didn’t bother you when they were closed. The WiFi did not work at all during our stay. They reset the internet several times but it never worked . The cell phone reception is terrible in the area so it was difficult to look up trails, directions, activities etc without WiFi. You couldn’t get any reception at all if you were downstairs . Also, if you were In the bedroom downstairs you heard a lot of noise from the bedroom above you . Overall, it was a great stay with very accommodating and responsive hosts . The cottages are beautiful and in a great location . We would stay here again but would make sure the WiFi was fixed before booking.

We got there when they opened and got a great table with an amazing view! My wife had the short ribs and of course I had the elk. It melted in my mouth! Perfectly cooked! It was a wonderful romantic evening with great service. We couldn’t recommend them enough!

Like visiting family

Reviewed By R4200HZmelissab

It’s like visiting your family, your hosts will treat you as guests in their home! If that appeals to you then you will like it here. If you prefer a hotel or commercialized place with breakfast this is not for you. If you can appreciate the care the owners have put into building their home, chatting and a lovely view you will enjoy it very much
