Reviewer: My son and I traveled from Scotland to Lake Tahoe for a skiing holiday in Jan and were so pleased with the hospitality at the Pine Frost Inn that we returned for a second visit with my daughter in April. The owner could not have been more helpful in assuring our stay was pleasant. The rooms are clean and pleasing and everything worked. The linen was a cut above the normal motel linen which was nice. On the day we checked out the owner invited us to return to our room in the afternoon to shower and change before we set off for San Francisco in the late afternoon. A very nice gesture to round off an excellent weeks skiing. I would recommend the Pine Frost to anyone as a very good value, well run, clean motel.

We had 4 room's here and the room's were so nice, espically the bed's & sheet's, as most people know usually motel sheet's ---, but not here. Room's are very nice and were super clean, and the rooms were so warm espically how cold it was.We have been giving seminars in lake tahoe so each week we try a new place, and so far this has been one of the best. Plenty of parking and all the snow was removed so everybody had a place to park, and the place had no vacancy sign on friday night when we arrived. It is about a 5 minute walk to the casino, and a 8 minute walk to the gondola. The people who run it could not do enough for us we thanked them many times before we left. The $$$ is so cheap it is hard to beat at other motels. Give the pine frost a try, you will not be disapointed. Good Luck to all!!

This was our second stay at the Pine Frost Inn - the first was cut short by a mid-day ski injury - that time the owners graciously gave us credit for an already-paid night when we had to go home early/mid-day - an unexpected and pleasant touch of a family-run business.

Rooms are large, clean, with strong heaters and lots of hot water. There's a pool (empty for winter) and working hot tub, though I can't imagine it was hot enough to be enjoyable as the flimsy cover barely fit over it. The beds are comfortable, linens and towels are clean, free TV gets 60 channels, etc.

It's about a 4-short-block walk to the main street - Heavenly Gondolas & bus pickup lot is on your immediate right, casinos are on your immediate left. We didn't need to use the car all weekend, now that's a nice vacation!

We paid just $60 a night and will definitely stay there again.

I was a little worried about this place since it had no website or pictures, and reserving a room was a little difficult since the husband and wife managers don't have a computer to give you booking information. But once secured and when we arrived they were extremely friendly and courteous; we got our choice of rooms, which were spotless (though one lamp didn't work), warm and comfortable, with decent water pressure and cable TV. The managers recommended a GREAT restauraunt called Nikki's Chaat Cafe, about 1/2 mile down the road, which is open until 9:30 most nights, 10 pm on fridays and saturdays; American breakfasts during the day and superb indian food at night (also very friendly hosts). The Pine Frost is 50-57 bucks a night even on a holiday weekend and is walking distance from Heavenly Gondola. We don't like to gamble, but it is also right at the state line, which when you cross stands the casinos. So forgive them if you can't book over the internet and making sure you have a room can seem vague. If you confirm conscientiously, this is a great place.
