4 of 5 stars Reviewed 25 November 2012

Stayed here over Thanksgiving. The place was very comfortable and homey. It was very nice having a separate room for the kids and the kitchenette for meals. That saves a lot with a family of four. Will be staying here again. My biggest complaint would be the shower. This would be the cheapest update to do by simply installing an... More

Good location off the road away from the congestion of S. Lake Tahoe. Only 15 minutes to Emerald Bay. Nice grounds: lawn and pool. Large room. Tiny bathroom with dated fixtures; could use more towel bars. Suited our purpose.

This looks like a basic 50s roadside motel, but we liked it! We have stayed here several times and the price is reasonable for what you get. All the rooms are a good size with a separate kitchen and living room area. They have not been updated in quite a while and are pretty 70s looking with the stand alone... More

My husband and I have stayed here twice and will absolutely be back. We only live 2 hours away, but its a great way to escape the Sacramento valley heat. We love highway 89 which is where the motel is situated, not far from restaurants. There is a bicycle rental place right next door. This old fashioned motel simply can't... More

If you want top-notch hotels with concierges, then this place isn't for you. But if you want a friendly, awesome old-time 50's style resort vacation, lay your towel on a lounger, grab some lemonade, and enjoy this rustic place. A huge lawn surrounds the pool area, and barbecues can accomodate family reunions. The location nestles in the pines, and is... More

After staying at Lazy S Lodge during New Year's weekend, I realized why it's probably named as such -- the owner was a pretty slow-moving, lazy-ish kinda guy. Although, after enough prodding, he did get the job done, so I can't complain too much. Upon arrival, the lodge doesn't look that appealing to the eye. The exterior of the hotel... More

We stayed at the Lazy S for 2 nights, our room was simple, with a kind bed and a pull out futon. It also had a small kitchen with a stove and fridge. The bed was very firm but not necessarily uncomfortable, but the futon was kind of rickety and would move back and forth when you moved. The shower... More
