We loved the restaurant and the hotels proximity to food, beach and music. Loved the on-site, albeit snug, parking and my daughter and I enjoyed the grounds and felt safe. A couple of issues; firepit area was not well tended, with one firepit not working, and empty cans and wine bottles from previous night, sitting out throughout the next day, and lack of hot water in.our shower was bummerish. All else great!

Great all around

Amazing inn. The service was excellent, it was super clean and so reasonable. Great location, awesome pool connected to a fabulous restaurant called Toulouse. The beds are comfortable, they have coffee pots and an apartment refrigerator. They also offer continental breakfast in the lobby. I love this place. Can’t wait to go back.

Our room was very small. But it was within walking distance to the Main Street where all the shops are located. It is also within walking distance to one of the beaches in South Lake Tahoe. There are fire pits around the property and they offer a little s’mores kit so you can go sit out and roast some marshmallows. I enjoyed my stay. And I would return again.

The place is a bit older and the door locks are not working properly. I had to repack and change rooms twice in the same day because the card readers and door locks were not working. Everything else was good. But a bit of an inconvenience.

Well, this wasn’t our first stay at the Station House Inn. On this stay though our room was surrounded by a fraternity which kidding overtook the property on what was supposed to be a relaxing birthday weekend. The pool was inaccessible due to the number of them using it. Both nights we were kept awake, or awakened by them. The first night there was a girl piling outside our room, a broken bottle and loud, obnoxious yelling until past 2am. Tried calling the front desk but there was no answer. The second night was slightly better but they came back loudly at 2am and woke us up. Unfortunate that we spent the money to stay here and had a not so great time on this outing. Station Houses features are good and their Rooms are clean. Just wish we hadn’t had this experience or had been offered some sort of refund or compensation for two crappy nights of sleep.

Quaint but worth it

Visiting Lake Tahoe just to see it. The Inn is a fine place to stay, It is a little dated, but the bathroom was converted for fully roll-in accessable and that was great, Would stay there again. Could use a little better lighting.

Very Nice Hotel

We liked everything about our room except that the bed was too soft and the lighting was poor. Nice shower, nice hot tub, great service. Plenty of places to plug in devices. The location is convenient. Would stay there again.
