Top Zephyr Cove Hotel Reviews

Basecamp South Lake Tahoe

Basecamp South Lake Tahoe

8/10 Good
"Staff was friendly and we were allowed to check in a little early. Location is wonderful for attending concerts at Caesars Republic. The Beer Garden is fun and active. Was bummed to see restaurant was closed after concert and property can use some attention. Peeling paint, and cobwebs on balcony railings in our room. Pollen buildup in parking lot could be hosed off.. Nothing terrible or a dealbreaker but a little TLC could go a long way."
