Franciscan Lakeside Lodge

Nice rooms with all amenities such as a stove, dishwasher, refrigerator, microwave and utensils. Some of the rooms by the lake come with a breath taking views of the lake and mountains like the one you see on my pic. Excellent for a stroll along the water during the sunset, sunrise or whenever your heart desires.

Fantastic location, you will have private access to the beach. The front desk team was amazing as well. Hotel is super clean.Rooms: 5/5

The only reason why I'm giving it two stars is because of the location and beautiful lake. Everything is close by shops, restaurants and walkable. They have the prettiest lake view right in front of the lodge. I assumed the lodge would be decent from their supposedly "4 star" lodge. I found out when checking in that their cabins are privately owned. Cabin 18 was not clean, it smelled old and stale, bathroom had mold in the shower, lights weren't' working and I felt so uncomfortable for my toddlers to be crawling around. It was so dirty that phone was sticky and it was just disgusting. The front desk never checked in on our stay and there was no cleaning services. The rooms definitely could use a upgrade, It was so outdated. I was so excited to stay from the reviews and photos I read and saw and it turned out to be such a disappointment. Not worth the price.

Absolutely stunning place! We stayed in room 12 and it was the perfect cozy spot right on the water. So serene and peaceful. The views are something out of the movies, no filters needed!Rooms: 5/5

Place Is ok but they should not mention as 4 star hotel. It is a lodge and it is decent. Better than camping but Don’t get your hopes up. Pretty old construction. We didn’t get lake view so that can also happen. They close reception at 5 pm , be careful.

Great room for the location and price. The private beach and dock were a plus. The downside was that you could hear your neighbors through the walls. Ours were loud and rude. All in all I would stay again.Rooms: 4/5

I loved our stay, our room was so cozy and had a little gas fireplace heater for the room. Our room had a queen bed, full bathroom and kitchenette. Not a negative but pur stove had to be lit with a lighter which ran out of fluid on our 2nd night or matches which we didn't have a strip to strike it on. Front desk was very responsive and helpful. Kitchen was big enough to cook dinner and a full breakfast with, however we did have to get a lil creative, id say it's great to cook for 2 ppl MAX. Overall, loved our stay

We enjoyed our stay at this cottage. Love the rustic cabin atmosphere. Room kitchen and bathroom, adequate for us. Kitchen came with a dish washer too. We enjoyed the proximity to a almost private beach. Would recommend this property to anyone who wants to get away for relaxation.Rooms: 5/5

Stayed in room #15 and absolutely loved it! Super close to the water wish we were on the beach but it was still very close room was clean! We arrived late and they had no problem putting our key in a lockbox. We stayed two nights and it was overall a lovely experience!! Very quite and a nice relaxing getaway wish we could have stayed longer. Would stay here again and recommend it to anyone coming to Tahoe!

I love this place, but the phone service needs serious work. I booked a reservation a week prior and due to staffing shortages they held a room for me, but didn't know which one at the time. Here I am a day from check-in and I've had no emails, calls, or texts. I have tried calling for 3 days and I am sent to a call center when they don't answer. The call center cannot check reservations. All they can do is leave a message for the hotel.. Further, the call center says there is no way to check an existing reservation. I love the amenities, the fully stocked kitchen with utensils, the cozy environment, but it is time to overhaul your reservation service.
