I was looking forward to staying here because it was very close to the lake. However the facility was very disappointing. The carpet all over the facility including the bedrooms is beyond filthy. I had to make sure my family had sandals at all times. The bedding had blood stains and were not very white or clean looking. However what was most disappointing is that they had no power outlets in the bathroom for a blow dryer or hot tools. Every morning I had to go downstairs to do my hair in the lobby bathroom. Not to mention no TV, no iron or board. Extremely disappointed with this Hotel especially the cleaning and lack of basics.We booked for 3 nights and we could only bare to stay there for 2, so we left only. I truly do not recommend this place unless they spend time on renovations on some basic necessities.

We stayed here 3 nights and the location is amazing. It is quiet and walking distance to beach. There is a cute ice cream shop across street and lots of eating options down the road as well as the grove on the beach property. I am from Texas and when I found out the hotel does not have air conditioning that was a little shock. But the lady at the front gave us an extra fan to put in window ( which helped a lot) We would definitely go back and try one of the cabins on property next time! Also they have free coffee (no breakfast) and a nice hot tub!

We had a room down by the beach. We stayed from Friday - Monday. There was live music in the afternoons on Friday-Sunday. You are right next to the beach and as such, we had a lot of traffic to/from the beach. It was very quiet overnight, but traffic started to the beach as soon as the sun came up. The room was OK. Bedding was clean, but the floors were very dirty. Like keep your shoes on dirty…. Check-in was great. Front desk was professional and helpful. If you want a room RIGHT ON THE BEACH, with with live music during the day, this is a good option. If you want clean floors and room amenities,

The property is great, it is secluded and in a beautiful part of Lake Tahoe. The lakefront is stunning, great views. The staff at the resort are a bit lacklustre. In the two days we were there we asked for a hair dryer, did not receive one. Also, the towels weren't changed and the bed was not made up when we came back in the evening on the second day. Overall nice, clean place to stay. Service leaves a lot to be desired.

Great Location, Clean, Enjoyable

The Historic Camp Richardson Hotel provided a no frills single room with simple rustic decor. The bedroom was clean, had newly updated bathroom essentials, new floors, and zero musty smells. The great room was definitely inviting with it’s large fireplace, rich colors, large furniture great for lounging, playing board games or reading a book. The lake shore was an easy walk from the hotel as was the restaurant with good food, an incredible view and great service. The general store was just steps away with a small cafe serving yummy snacks, small meals, and was stocked with touristy gifts, some food essentials, and toiletries. Every staff member was pleasant and helpful.

My friends and I paid the same price for a single room, but their rooms came with a mini fridge, a desk, a chair, and noticeably more space. Ours had none of those. More importantly, our room DO NOT have hot water for bathing, which was extremely inconvenient and unacceptable. we have to get cleaning using bathroom sink. That alone is the main reason I’m leaving this review. We expected basic amenities and were let down.
