Top First Ride Hotel Reviews

Golden Nugget Hotel & Casino Lake Tahoe

10/10 Excellent

"It was a great stay and we'd like to come back again some time"

Forest Suites Resort at Heavenly Village

10/10 Excellent

"My wife and I are new parents to a 2 yr old and a 5 yr old. About two years ago, we tried this place out to see how it was. This would be our third time staying here every time we visit South Lake! We love this place so much we decided to start a new family tradition to stay here from now on. It’s warm and inviting. Not as “glamorous” as the other places are, but it feels like home. Every time we come here, my oldest daughter makes friends her age. This year, she was officially sworn into the “smores-making-club”. Great memories are made here, not just a cozy place to sleep. The housekeeping and maintenance staff are VERY HARD WORKING, PROFESSIONAL, and KIND. You will see them from time to time upkeeping the premises and caring for the guests. Front desk are helpful and fast to assists any guests. The Breakfast staff are amazing and hardwork as well. Don’t forget to tip them! They work hard and they show it! I will admit tho, altho not necessary, it does help to be social at this place. It’s set up that way. For people to reconnect with a community and disconnect from their devices. Stay awhile!"

Black Bear Lodge

10/10 Excellent

"We had a wonderful stay at Black Bear Lodge. The property was very clean, the area was quiet, and the bed was extremely comfortable. The gentleman at check-in was very friendly and welcoming. We were pleasantly surprised to receive an upgrade to a nicer room at no additional cost, which made our stay even better. The only minor issues we experienced were that the hair conditioner dispenser was not working after shampooing, and the sink in the bedroom bathroom was draining very slowly. Other than those small things, everything was great. We truly enjoyed our stay and would definitely come back again!"

Hilton Vacation Club Tahoe Seasons Lake Tahoe

10/10 Excellent

"We like the free coffee and laundry. The staff is friendly. The room is equipped with everything we need. The room set up is perfect. The fact that the 2 rooms are separated by doors and kitchen allow some privacy. Though the outdoor pool is small."
