Franciscan Lakeside Lodge

Radu Popovici

A rustic retreat in the small town of Tahoe Vista, with a small private beach and near many attractions (NV casinos, decent restaurants, boating, mini and regular golf). We've been coming here for years. The rooms could be more up to date, but it is rustic, not modern. Service is available by request only. Prices are mid range for the area. If not getting a lakefront cottage, go for the forest side, better value than 'lakeside'.

The room was nice and very cozy. But it was really noisy in the morning. I don’t understand why they woke up their residents at 8 am Friday using a huge vacuum cleaner. There is a worker carrying this cleaner walking around even on our front door stairs. You can imagine how much noise it could generate and how annoying it was.

I was moderately pleased with this place. It’s quite expensive but in line with the rest of the area. What they advertised on their website was not exactly what I got. I was expecting a queen and a pullout couch and was given just a double bed. The beach was nice and so was the dock and I believe they have kayaks you can use. It is not rocky like sand harbor or anything as one of the reviews below show. The staff was somewhat friendly but their website advertised 3 pm check in and it was actually 4. They gave you one coffee packet and the maids didn’t come in between so you ran out quickly. The location is decent on the edge of kings beach but not walking distance to almost any restaurants or shops. Honestly the main reason I would recommend this place is if it’s the least expensive option you can find with beach access
