A very nice little room to stay three nights in this beautiful area. You can walk in a few minutes to the lake. Parking in front of your room. There are several nice restaurants and especially Rosis Café where you get real good meals. Prices are ok.

I loved everything about Base Camp! It’s right across from the lake, right in the heart of Tahoe City, and an easy 10 mins drive to Alpine Meadows. Rooms were spotless, quiet, and the staff fantastic. Would recommend this to anyone wanting a quiet, safe, clean place to stay while in Tahoe.

Loved my stay at Basecamp in Tahoe City! The front desk was very helpful and friendly and I loved being able to hangout with a beer a meet some of the other guests staying there. Perfect for people who are into recreation and looking for a community while they are staying in Tahoe.

Base camp hotels are ok, remodeled 60/70’s roadside motels. I would say they always lack insulation between the rooms, so it is noisy.

I really enjoyed Basecamp overall. I've been to the South Tahoe location before, so this time I decided to try Tahoe City. The service was just as excellent. I was a bit disappointed that this location doesn’t have a café like the South Tahoe one, and in mid-April, breakfast and brunch options nearby are pretty limited. Still, it’s a great time to visit if you’re looking for some quiet time and want to enjoy the beautiful views — the trail to see the entire Lake Tahoe is within walking distance.

This was our second stay at Basecamp. It has a very charming vibe with a wonderful lobby and exterior fire pits to hang out at in the evening. A little more attention to minor details would make this place a lot cooler. (on our first stay, we enjoyed beers at night in the bar/lobby. Good vibes. This time the music was so lame, we went down the road to spend our time.) With that said, the staff was very nice. The beds and rooms are very comfortable and the price is excellent.

Great pick

Great setup all-around, and really wasn’t expecting the lobby to be so great- couches, fireplace, games, drinks on tap, s’mores and firepits. Definitely would come back next visit.
