Switched rooms three times. First the key didn’t work due to error by staff. So instead of activating the key for the room they told us we were in they made us move across the property to the one we were “supposed” to be in. I was offered a beer for my troubles. Then the second room had no running water and we were moved back across the property to another room with barely an apology. Worst check in ever… rooms aren’t to bad though and the hot tub was nice.

Basecamp South Lake Tahoe is quaint, clean and convenient to the center of town and Heavenly Village. My kids and I stayed 2 nights. The breakfast offered in the front office/ lobby was great and surprisingly not super expensive. Bonus- they also have a water station in the lobby so you can refill water bottles if you are here to hike or ski. There are 2 hot tubs on the property… and fire pits where you can roast marshmallows or just relax. I would recommend the property.

Our room was filthy, there was tons of crumbs and trash on the floor. The toilet was dirty, the shower was so small you had to press against the wall to even have the water hit you. There was a dirty sock in our closet. About 2am we were woken up with a loud obnoxious noise that shook our room and continued for 3 hours. We reached out to front desk and they told us it was the wind. We cut our stay short and left. Terrible stay.
