The hotel is well located to all the key spots in S Tahoe. The place was clean and beds comfortable. The bathroom was outdated with the shower tub well worn and toilet smaller than I can remember seeing. Overall it was high priced due to the concert relative to what I’d expect to get at this price.

Great location, close to dining, the beach and the casino. The discount voucher for the beach was a nice touch. Bed was comfortable and there were extra blankets. I am not a light sleeper but other guests were quite noisy on the walkways outside the doors. I would stay again

Blue Lake August 23rd 2024
We went for the Jon Pardi concert and it was very cold for August but it was good the room is comfortable and a little walk to Harveys for the concert.This is my third time staying at the Blue Lake Inn it has always been nice. my go to place to stay when im going to a concert. Walking back someone was on the phone telling the person they were talking to that they needed to stay to the right because of a bear sighting. We made it back safely to our room.
