The staff was wonderful. Love the family cabin. Someone trying to get in at night… I’m assuming was a bear… was a little alarming . Other than that I had a relaxing , quiet, peaceful stay at Emerald Bay Lodge!!! Will definitely stay again. Thank you for making my vacation great!

Family Cabin
We really liked the family cabin. It had it's own entrance which was nice. You could tell it was an old building but had a modern day vibe. There's a burger place right next door in case you get hungry.

Room is big and nice specially the bath room. But the floor was very dirty and the bed is not comfortable. It’s wasn’t steady and shaking when you move.

Worst place to stay in Tahoe
The mattress has broken springs, the door was already unlocked when we arrived. The heater was broken and the room smaller than advertised. The staff who checked us in was grumpy. I can go on and on
