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.

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.

It was a very cute hotel. Cozy and quiet. Not great if you’re bringing a family. Also, no tv, or microwave. Very basic.

Brilliant location. The bathroom door wouldn't close all the way. It worked out for us boys but might be a problem for others who need privacy. Other than that everything went smooth. Totally worth.

Cabin like feel in a hotel. No tv in rooms which was refreshing. You can hear people walking around and showers starting up from other rooms but the building is 100 years old so that’s to be expected. Bed was comfortable and rooms were warm. We loved it and got what we were looking for. Everyone was so kind and the beautiful fireplace in the lobby is a great feature onsite to sit around. Free WiFi and not too far from the lake. We will definitely stay here again.

Loved being next to The Grove. It was wonderful retreat. There were some bugs in my room but it’s close to nature what did I expect but in case someone forgets that too be warned. Other than that loved walking to the General Store and can’t wait to come back.
