Great dog friendly stay
We loved Playpark’s accommodations for our dog. When we arrived we were welcomed with a dog treat, dog bowl, dog towel and sheet that our dog could lay on without being on the actual bed sheets. The bed was comfy and the room had everything we needed for a weekend stay in Tahoe.

Clean and neat property with plentiful room amenities. Check in was done remotely and room access was via a code. 4 restaurants within 5 min walking distance. Very comfortable stay. $40 per night fee for my dog. I would return.

It is a basic place to stay for the night - nothing fancy or upscale. Clean, fairly conveniently located, good outdoor space and facilities, it meets all the basic requirements.

It was a pleasure residing at the Play Park Lodge. We came to celebrate my husbands birthday and it was super convenient for food areas and things to do. We went exploring and didn’t have to worry about a long drive because it was RIGHT THERE !!! 10/10 I recommend!!!!…

Playpark lodge was great for my little family vacay , close to everything great amenities tons of outdoor games. No AC units but the weather was manageable . Will definitely stay again here !
Perla, 5-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Easy automated check-in/check-out, helpful staff support via phone/text, nice cozy room, parking right outside the door to it. Great price and location, a convenient 20minute drive to Sierra-at-Tahoe. Located near a handful of options for food as well, making that easy to grab on the way in/out. I will definitely be recommending Playpark Lodge.

Fantastic find!
This hotel was such a great find! It’s very family friendly, and so conveniently located! We were there in March for a snowshoeing trip. What first attracted us to it was the fact that it is dog friendly! And I mean, dog friendly! Right inside the door was gear for the dog plus a biscuit! We had the king suite which was wonderful. The bed was comfy and the room had so many thoughtful extras: a flashlight, a power strip, picnic ware, and plenty of fluffy white towels! We’ve already booked our next stay!
