Everything was good except we were in a room above the boiler that woke us up real early in the morning. That is the only thing

In the trees walkable to beach and to the restaurant. Restaurant had wonderful views of the lake. Several walkable trails from the hotel.

The location is amazing. Our room was facing the lake and conveniently next to the Grove restaurant. Room was basic but clean and the bed was very comfortable. The surrounding area is beautiful and there are a lot of options on your doorstep for activities.

Simple, bare bones and charming

It was a very cute hotel. Cozy and quiet. Not great if you’re bringing a family. Also, no tv, or microwave. Very basic.

Loved having close access to a beautiful beach! Very affordable and clean. I didn't mind the lack of AC at all, the room was very comfortable.
Michaeline, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

We had a room down by the beach. We stayed from Friday - Monday. There was live music in the afternoons on Friday-Sunday. You are right next to the beach and as such, we had a lot of traffic to/from the beach. It was very quiet overnight, but traffic started to the beach as soon as the sun came up. The room was OK. Bedding was clean, but the floors were very dirty. Like keep your shoes on dirty…. Check-in was great. Front desk was professional and helpful. If you want a room RIGHT ON THE BEACH, with with live music during the day, this is a good option. If you want clean floors and room amenities,

Epic year

Ive been coming to Camp Rich for 68 years. Ive stayed in many cabins from Nash to Fleetwood. to the Marina Duplex and my favorite, Buick, to camping and the lodge. Im not happy about the new registration policy, as we'd been coming the last 2 weeks in July as a family with a group. This year we came in August. (Which is fine with me- i like being in Tahoe in August), but nexr year its around July 4th. Not thrilled with that. However, Camp Rich is a very special place fir my family. Our group is now on the 4th generation (in my family it is the 5th generation), so it is a tradition. And this year i had a blast. I have no complaints about the service or accommodations. I know what im getting when i come here. I stayed in Nash with my son's family for 2 days and despite the small shower, i spent so little time inside, i was just happy to be here. And this year my sister, who lives in Maine, and i havent seen her in 24 years, plus the 50 year anniversary of our Margaritta party, made this an especialkt epic summer at Camp Rich.

10/10 Exceptional

Cabin like feel in a hotel. No tv in rooms which was refreshing. You can hear people walking around and showers starting up from other rooms but the building is 100 years old so that’s to be expected. Bed was comfortable and rooms were warm. We loved it and got what we were looking for. Everyone was so kind and the beautiful fireplace in the lobby is a great feature onsite to sit around. Free WiFi and not too far from the lake. We will definitely stay here again.

A good surprise!

We loved this space, it is definitely more camp vibes than a hotel, which kind of surprised us but as long as you dont mind that, it is a lovely place to stay. I would definitely stay here again! Their hot water is quick and lasts a long time so no worries about that if thats you least favorite part of camping like me :) it was just far enough from town and an easy, quick walk to the lake!
Rachel, 2-night trip

6/10 Good

The hotel is literally next to the main road and vehicles travel through 24/7. There is also no AC, it's better to sleep outside than in that hot hotel!

Camp Richardson is a true historic Lake Tahoe treasure. The property is very family friendly from the beautiful beachfront to rustic cabins to walkable paths to bike rentals to a sweet ice cream coffee parlor as well as a well equipped General Store with convenient eatery. The cabins are truly no frills rustic, but equipped with the basics. The Historic Hotel is comfortable with clean rooms and a cozy lodge lobby. This was our families fourth summer enjoying a Lake Tahoe vacation. The kids love Camp Richardson for beach and proximity to exploring outdoors, so looks like we’ll be booking our 5th soon.

Rustic And Historic

We had a good stay at Camp Richardson hotel. The hotel has a great history and a beautiful common area as part of the hotel. The rooms are small and because it’s very old, the hallway upstairs is narrow and the doors have a knob lock and slider lock from the inside. There are rooms downstairs accessible by a ramp. There is good storage in the room but the bathroom had no counter storage and shower pressure was not good. No TV. Hot tub is nice. Hotel is just a short walk to the beach and The Grove Restaurant. The general store, coffee shop and ice cream store are all next door or across the street.
