The accommodation was absolutely delightful and perfect for a family. Our room featured two cozy queen beds and a convenient sofa bed. The shower provided wonderfully warm water with just the right amount of pressure. The location was ideal, with easy access to several beautiful beaches for relaxation and a few fantastic restaurants. The owners were incredibly responsive to any requests we had. I would absolutely love to visit again and would highly recommend this place to others.

I thought it was a clean and comfortable remodel. They are VERY communicative and up front about the non-staffed check in etc., so if you cant figure out the instructions I feel like thats probably on you (lol). Our room had a lake view over the roof. The fireplace was neat. The shower ceiling was a little low for tall people but water pressure was fine. Open windows (no fan in restroom) meant you could hear other folks but it was never a bother. Lots of pillows, bed was comfortable. The best part was walking across the street to the beach and enjoying the sunset. We had a haunted drawer that opened on its own a few times, so that was fun to joke about (we dont really think it was haunted... would be cool if it was). Parking lot was small and a little tight when full but we had no problem parking (big truck still fit). We saw the hot tub but didnt try it out. Pool still closed at time of stay. I would stay again.

The hotel is across the street from a public beach with an incredible view, and our room was gorgeous - We loved the gas fireplace that heated the room and the sliding glass door. The hot tub with a view of the lake and mountains was heavenly! We appreciatedthe availability of a modern, clean washer and dryer.We had a thoroughly enjoyable stay!

No reception! No reception! No reception! This is self check in Airbnb, not hotel! if you don’t know how to do it, that is your problem! Normally after a long trip, you expecting to get some level of service, however, this time you have to service your self. Business hour is 8am to 9pm, but nobody in reception in business hours. May be the owner doesn’t want spent any more money to be more user friendly! Cannot believe this is lake Tahoe.

Absolutely delighted with our weekend getaway experience at Firelite Lodge! From start to finish, everything was seamless and convenient, thanks to the contactless check-in and payment process. We chose the cabin option for the extra space with our kids, and it exceeded our expectations in every way.The fully equipped kitchen was a godsend, allowing us to prepare meals and save on dining expenses. Having a washer and dryer meant we could pack lighter and enjoy outdoor adventures without worrying about laundry. And the thoughtful addition of board games kept the kids entertained and brought us all closer together in the evenings.The cleanliness and the comfort of the rooms provided a welcome retreat after our busy days exploring the great outdoors. We couldn’t have asked for a better home base for our weekend retreat. Thank you for providing such a gem of a place for families to create long lasting memories!

The hotel has a picturesque view across the street from the lake. This is the best hotel for watching sunsets and sunrises; both are incredibly beautiful. On our last day, we decided to have breakfast on the beach, equipped with benches and tables. The hotel is clean and cozy: the fireplace works, the windows open. The room has everything you need. Maybe something looks outdated, but thanks to the cleanliness, you ignore it. We will definitely return to this hotel, and next time, we will try a room with a lake view.

The location is nice and the rooms are ok. My biggest disappointment is that they don’t tell you there is no air conditioning until after you book the room! The main room has no windows, only a sliding door, so it’s a choice between privacy, or fresh air. And if you want fresh air, the screen door has a rip in it allowing bugs to get in, and nothing ruins a vacation for me more than mosquitoes. The other disappointment was that I was not sent the check in info. I had to call and request it. Minor inconvenience. The beds were comfortable, the room was clean, and the location is good.

Second time staying this lodge.Nice clean room, quiet, convenient location, and fire place to warm up the room is very comforting.This time gave 4 stars because we couldn’t use bathtub. After all day of snowboarding it would be nice to soak in the tub.Also the sink was sort of clogged or very slow draining in coffee area.

Nice, clean, convenient lodge. Nice scenic 25 min drive to Alpine ski area. Close to grocery stores and various restaurants. Spacious room was exactly like the pics online. Check-in process online on cell phone was painless and efficient. The beds were a bit firmer than I liked, but thats completely personal preference.

The contactless check in will have you waiting 20 mins (or more) before you can get your room. Then they ask you to tip your housekeeper via online credit card payment (do they even really get the tip that way?) Its all a ploy for them to not have to pay their help as much. No customer service whatsoever. No lobby.

****Update**** Rodger called and after reviewing the calls from his staff agree it was inappropriate and apologized..... but would not refund the stay to us, telling me it was within the 72 hour cancelation policy and he would do me a favor and give me a credit for 2 days for a future stay. It was not my fault an nor would I have canceled the trip if it wasnt for the interaction of his staff. Rodger refused to give me his supervisors information, saying he is the end all be all for the decision.Was going to stay at hotel. Front desk clerk called to confirm reservation, and we were greeted with a violent belch. We honestly thought it was someone we knew and not the hotel staff. When addressing the situation of the employee being unprofessional on the phone we were given the excuse of he was having stomach issues and wasnt feeling well. Why would I want to stay at an establishment when their employees are sick and still working. When we asked to talk to a supervisor we were told no one was there and they would maybe call us back tomorrow.

Good location, comfy beds, and room was warmed up prior to our arrival which is a huge plus. The bathroom is fancy and is clean, also comes with a sofa. Overall a pretty luxurious stay for this price range.Excellent service as the maid even went out of her way to contact us about a shirt I left in the shower curtain and we went right back to pick it up.

Checking in and out was super easy and convenient. The room was very clean and matched how it was advertised. The location was awesome. We were just a short drive away from Diamond Peak and great restaurants like Lanza’s. I’ve already recommended this location to friends and will definitely come back and stay again.

The room was very clean so was the facility. Value was there & location was perfect! The only down side was the whole virtual checkin, my older uncle was with me & he wouldnt of figured out what to do if i wasnt there. There was at least 2 other people there trying to figure things out. The rooms need some art work or something. Great place to stay overall.

Great location on the North side of Lake Tahoe, near Kings Beach. Had a nice view of the lake and was able to take good pics right from the balcony. Definitely recommend!

The hotel is super clean and well managed. The login and pass code process is super efficient, the fireplace was going when we arrived. coffee maker, fridge and some kitchen supplies were all ready for our stay. they parking area was clear of recent snow and we had a view of the lake. overall, a great place to stay in Kings Beach. near several good restaurants and easy trip to Northstar. price was MUCH better than most places in the area. Also, the hot tub was hot and welcoming

This is a cute motel in a very good location with extremely helpful staff - we have stayed here during ski season many times. Its comfy and quiet, the rooms have fireplaces and sometimes a little sofa. Theres a hot tub, and many of the rooms have a partial view of the lake. Its completely remote check-in, but weve never had a problem. The SERVICE on this last trip was fantastic - especially the help from Anj. She was GREAT. First, we changed our reservation at the last minute a few weeks ago due to my husband being injured. We were within the no cancelation window, but she kindly moved the res for us, at no charge. Then this past weekend when we were scheduled to stay, there was a massive blizzard and we couldnt make it over Donner Pass on Friday. We ended up staying in Auburn and assumed wed just forfeit that nights lodging at Firelite. But Anj helped us once again and kindly moved the res from Fri-Sat to Sat-Sun, allowing everyone to get some rest and a bit more skiing. We were surprised and truly grateful. We will continue to stay here again and again during ski season! Plus theyre right next to Old Range Steakhouse - awesome old spot! THANK YOU ANJ!(Please consider bringing back breakfast - the pandemic is over. Or arrange a discount to a cafe nearby. And please put a little table or coffee table in the rooms.)

Such kind people! Excellent communication. Very competitive pricing for what you get. Perfect for the weekend trip/holiday vacation. Couldn’t have been better for me, while I enjoyed a snowboarding trip at North Star(just 10min away!) Will definitely be back.

Fabulous value for money in Lake Tahoe. Rooms are spacious, clean, and well-equipped, just as they look in the pictures. The contactless check-in/check-out arrangement is excellent and hassle-free. Communication with staff online is swift. Although the walls are slightly thin such that I could occasionally hear my neighbors, its not a problem at all. I even have a partial lake view, too! The only suggestion I have for management is to consider adding a lace curtain to the window which currently has a sun-blocking curtain only such that I can have more privacy while enjoying the nice winter view outside. Thanks for a lovely stay!

Favourite motel of our road trip! Fantastic location and I’m so glad we upgraded to a lake view room - it felt so peaceful to sit outside and enjoy the evening.Room was spacious and exceptionally clean. Loved the fireplace and kitchenette area.Icing on the cake would have been an earlier check in time as it’s quite late at 4pm. But that is very minor - we will definitely be back!

It was very, very quiet, very very comfortable. It was right across from the lake less than a mile away from all the food you can eat, fuel station, right down the street, hiking skiing whatever you want was right there, fortunately, I was at work I live out of town and was most grateful to have chosen Firelite Lodge to stay my week and a half, it was very reasonable price wise, they worked with me on my early check-in, and my extended stay, when work became longer than expected. I had my room touched up every day, I will definitely stay at fire light again. I’m actually returning on Monday. I will be calling your staff for a new appointment once they confirm tomorrow. Thanks again for all your help in making my reservation and easy stay

Great location on north shore. I went to North Tahoe for a hiking trip during October off-season and this was a great value and perfect location. Rooms are reasonable size, everything is very clean and looks almost new. The room has a fireplace (gas) which looks very cozy compared to a regular motel A/C units. Not many places to eat at walking distance, but Kings Beach is reasonably close with many options. Recommend to anyone as a budget-friendly place.

We had a great time staying at this historic lodge this December. The location is very nice and the rooms are cozy, clean, and comfortable. The view of the lake is also great, and if we ever visit Lake Tahoe during summer, we will definitely stay at Firelite Lodge.

I spent Thanksgiving weekend at Firelite Lodge and highly recommend for a weekend stay or longer! It was the first time staying at a virtual check in hotel and must say it was very easy and efficient to check in and out. Rooms were cozy and it was sweet to have a fireplace in the room. Very clean and have a microwave and fridge with a little counter space for your needs. This lodge is forever special now because I got proposed to during this visit to North Tahoe :)

Nice clean bed; nice fireplace and fan combo to heat the room; hot water and good water pressure. Very easy to check in and out so long as you are tech or text savvy. Great location, right across the street from the lake as well as a stop on the Tahoe Area free transit route.

Nicest stop on my trip! Sitting on the deck drinking a glass of wine watching the sun set over the lake, I was wondering if the road noise would be bad. Closing the sliding door made it very quiet, great night sleep. The fireplace kept it warm and added ambiance. They even provided wine glasses, which was great since I forgot mine. Well worth the price, I do plan to go back.the contactless entry and exit was flawless! Great experience, wish more places did it!

The firelite lodge is such a lovely place. As soon as you enter the room with the fireplace running, you feel cozy and home. The location is perfect and very close to the lake. Communication was perfect and it wasnt a problem to extend my stay spontaneously by one night. I had a wonderful time here, Thank you.

We recently had the pleasure of staying at Firelite Lodge and were thoroughly impressed with our experience. From the moment we arrived, the no-contact check-in process was seamless and incredibly easy.One aspect that truly stood out was the exceptional responsiveness of the lodge staff. Whenever we needed assistance, we simply had to send a quick text, and the response time was very fast. Whether it was requesting extra towels or seeking information, the staff was always prompt, accommodating, and friendly.We stayed in the lodges charming two-bedroom private cabin. The cleanliness of the cabin was impeccable, and we appreciated the attention to detail in maintaining a cozy and inviting atmosphere. Each room was equipped with plug-in heaters and fans, ensuring that we could customize the temperature to our liking. Moreover, the lovely gas fireplace in the living room not only added to the cabins charm but also kept the entire place comfortably warm.The overall experience of staying at Firelite Lodge was enjoyable and convenient. The combination of a seamless no-contact check-in process, attentive staff who promptly catered to our requests, and the comfort and charm of the cabin made our stay truly memorable.We would like to express our gratitude to the Firelite Lodge team for their great service. We look forward to visiting again in the future and highly recommend this Lodge to anyone seeking a delightful and hassle-free getaway that does not break the bank.

Beautiful location, the rooms are comfortable beautiful and warm. Fireplace is a really nice touch. The 2nd floor is the partial view (very minimal view). We upgraded to a full view but had some of the view blocked by the reception desk building. This was slightly disappointing but overall was not a deal breaker. We were in room 323. The first 2 photos are the view from the balcony.

We were pleasantly surprised with our stay at the Firelite Lodge! The room was clean, beds were comfortable and the view from the small deck on the third floor was appreciated. May want to replace the screen door to the deck as it doesnt slide easily. The Lodge is located very conveniently to shopping, restaurants and beaches. The pool and hot tub were spotless! It was nice to be able to walk across the street and sit on the beach I remember visiting as a child. Response from management to a text was very prompt. Contactless arrival and departure was easy to figure out, even for me! For the price, the Firelite Lodge fit our budget for a short trip to Tahoe!

We enjoyed our stay at the Firelite Lodge. The rooms were very neat and clean. The bigger sized refrigerator is nice. The process to check in and out is easy and the staff is easy to contact via the messaging system. There is a beach right across the street and restaurants nearby. Some of the rooms have a beautiful view of the lake, but not all of the rooms.

Loved the Firelite Lodge! We came for a girls weekend. 4 of us in the room with plenty of space. Beautiful lake views right across the street! Was conveniently located to everything and surrounded by great restaurants! Hot tub was awesome! I have to soak for medical reasons and the Bathtub was one of the best Ive experienced in a hotel. Staff was quick to respond when we needed things, but the contactless experience was great! We cant wait for the next trip!

We stayed here once about15 years ago in a room without a view. This time, we stayed in a King Room with a fireplace, small balcony, and view of Lake Tahoe that was impecably clean, quiet and comfortable. The bed was firm and quit comfortable. There are a number of eating establishments within a mile of the motel, some within an easy walking distance. We enjoyed our anniversary stay and will be back again.

Great small hotel across the lake! The staff are helpful and great with communication. Since this is a contactless hotel, they provide step by step instructions to access your room. It was very easy to follow. The room was very clean and looked just like the photos online! Thank you Firelite for the great experience.

Stayed here in Feb 2023, perfect location for riding at the ski resorts in and around north Lake Tahoe. Rooms were great size, kitchen is a bonus and the views of Lake Tahoe are hard to beat. Team who services the rooms always does a great job. Can’t wait to visit again.

Great for what it is - nothing fancy, but very comfortable and clean. The gas fireplace in the room was a nice touch. Our third floor room had a lake view. Great base for skiing. The hot tub was hot and clean, though it was right next to the parking lot so not exactly the most ambiance…still good for soak after a day on the slopes though. Check in and out went very smoothly for us.

Astonishing accomodation ! Super clean and comfortable. Just in front of Tahoe Vista area. We can enjoy local restaurant and small trail to walk. (There is cute hidden bench at the end of trail.)Inside the room, we can use fireplace to be warm. 1-2hr operation would be enough.

Conveniently located next to the ski resorts. The fireplace is nice. I recommend this place for skiers and snowboarders for NorthStar ski resort.

This is a unique hotel that doesn’t have a front desk staff, so they give you an access code to the room. It worked amazingly, didn’t have to keep track of the key and everyone in the party could always have access. The room was very clean. We stayed on the 3rd floor and had an amazing view of the lake. A nice location on the lake as well, with a non crowded beach across the street and an amazing pizza place next door!

My wife and I spent out one year anniversary here and we would do it again. Great place and nice and quiet. The contactless check in and out was interesting. New experience and very easy. If you don’t have your room code yet just give them a call and they’ll help you right away.

We enjoy staying here. This is the second time we have stayed here. I was a bit concerned about the contactless operations but anything we needed was promptly addressed. We like the beach access across the street and the fact that there are water sport rentals at that beach as well. We also like having a view of the lake from our room. Clean rooms.

Review №55

2023-06-21 15:16:22

Stayed here for 2 nights with my wife. Nice, comfortable hotel room. We got a room with lake view which was worth the modest increase in rate. Contactless check-in was pretty easy but we do prefer a staffed hotel. Had a question and took a while to get a call back. With sliding door open there is a lot of traffic noise but quiet with door closed. With a pool and hot tub, rooms should be stocked with an extra set of towels. We only had one per person and with no one on site can’t just go to the desk and request extras. We did use the hot tub and it was nice.All in all we had a nice stay and we would stay here again.

I recently stayed at Firelite Lodge and overall, my experience was mixed. On the positive side, the heater in the room worked well and the check-in process was smooth. The staff also responded fairly quickly when we had a question or issue. However, there were several negative aspects of our stay. Upon checking in, we noticed a strong smell in the room that took several hours to air out. Despite being inconvenient, we were very understanding of the need to air out the room ourselves. However, this was still not a pleasant start to our stay. To make matters worse, we were charged extra for a stained towel, which was not acceptable, especially considering that we had already paid surcharge prices for the room. The pillows were also very flat, which made it difficult to get a good nights sleep. The blanket provided was also quite light, which was not sufficient for the cold weather in North Tahoe. The room itself was quite large but oddly shaped, and the bathroom was very small. Overall, I would not recommend Firelite Lodge. Its important to choose a hotel that will provide a comfortable and enjoyable experience, and it seems that Firelite Lodge did not meet those standards in my case.

This is a comfortable lodge in Tahoe Vista, within wonderful proximity to the lake (I spent several minutes walking just to enjoy the view), and with a responsive staff and clean rooms. It was perfect for my purposes of a short ski trip and excellent for the price. Keep in mind, it is close to the road, so there was a little traffic noise in my ground-floor room. Im a light sleeper so will just bring earplugs next time, which would easily solve that very minor issue. Just something to keep in mind if youre like me and wake up to every small noise. Otherwise, no problems for me, and a great experience. Highly recommend.

The Firelight is a great place to stay. We had a room with a beautiful view and a fireplace. It was spacious, clean and cozy and extremely comfortable. The decor was cute and retro. My husband and I had a wonderful stay.

This stay was excellent from beginning to end! We had never stayed there, so I phoned to make our reservation. The person I talked to was very nice, helpful and professional. She promptly made our reservation including our request for a lake view.The follow-up was via text and emails and was very thorough and included everything we needed to know. Thanks to all this attention, our trip was smooth from beginning to end.The accommodation was clean, warm and comfortable. Checking in and out was a breeze, and the follow-up after we left was amazing, including prompt return of the security deposit.Firelite was a first-class operation and we expect to return shortly!

Outstanding lodge on the north shore of Lake Tahoe, with the amazing scenic view youre looking for. Very nice location across the street from the lake, with fun stuff to walk to. A classic Tahoe experience! Its quick to access from the Truckee area and easy to find as well.

Firelight lodge is in a good location, the idea of contactless check in & out was seamless. Very good communication with staff who manage property. The room was clean and tidy. Small little kitchenette with Keureg coffee maker, microwave and fridge. The bathroom didn’t have much counter space for your stuff but there was shampoo, conditioner and body wash in shower.We are planning to return to Tahoe next year and plan to stay here again. North Lake Tahoe is the place to go! Thanks

The rooms were nice and clean. There was a mini kitchen that included a microwave, fridge and a sink which was great. There is a small beach right across the street so the location was great minus the bit of traffic noise. There is also a fireplace in the room to make it cozy! I would stay there again!

We paid an extremely fair price considering we didn’t have a reservation and the room had a great view of the lake with our own private balcony. We were also happy to have a fireplace to take off the chill and a refrigerator, microwave, and coffee maker!! We would definitely recommend this property to anyone.

My three kids (ages 11, 8, 8) and I spent three nights at the Firelite Lodge and four days skiing at nearby Mt. Rose. Everything related to our stay was great. We enjoyed soaking in the hot tub each night with the snow falling. The fireplace was a nice touch. Thank you for providing clean, comfortable & reasonably priced accommodations in North Lake Tahoe.

This was nothing extravagant, but it was comfortable and spotless. We especially enjoyed the gas fireplace in our room and the lake view we got from the third floor. Skiing was great from this location and the hot tub was hot and sanitary, even if its placement next to the parking lot wasnt ideal for atmosphere. The check-in and check-out process was also seamless for us.

Second time staying at the Firelite Lodge and love how you can just walk across the street to sit by the water and watch the sunset. Quaint, cute, and easy to access the property. Located near several options for food and shopping. Comfortable beds and cute rooms. Not in a super high traffic area but near the water. Love this place!

Love staying at the Firelite Lodge! Ive stayed here for years now and the simplicity, location and ease is exactly what I am looking for when visiting the Tahoe area. Grateful for the extra special touches of a hot tub and pool area. Its intimate and feels like home every time I visit.

Pretty unique as you dont actually check-in / check-out with a Live person. So a bit confusing & time consuming to text/talk to a person on the phone to get the logistics. The rooms are decent - not huge but decent - along with the bathroom. The location is great...10 mins. to Northstar, and close to restaurants etc. There is a great little outdoor jacuzzi too. Would suggest putting extra large towels so not have to ask for extra for the hot tub. The rooms are nice and warm and no loud heater - just a nice quiet Fireplace. Will be back... hopefully they will add the breakfast back soon!

This place is completely contactless. Reservations are made on-line or by phone. Follow-up details are taken care of in the same fashion, with an individual code being sent to you for the keypad to your room. There is nobody in the front office. If you need anything (extra towels, etc), you put in a request on-line. They are very quick to respond to questions/comments/requests. The rooms have been recently renovated (as of Nov 2022). They are clean and comfortable. The room was also very reasonably priced. The lake, and one of several beaches, are right across the street. It was quiet and is located close to a Safeway and numerous places to eat. The one minor detraction was that the bed was slightly uncomfortable. Given thats a personal preference, and minor in this case, it didnt detract from all the positives. It was a pleasant surprise and a place we will definitely stay at again.

Looks like they recently spruced things up. The room was clean and had everything we needed with newer furniture. We had one adult and two kids. The room was about average size maybe a touch smaller but had a nice chair, fireplace and a walkout patio.There’s a public beach across the street with the ability to see the lake from our room and the hot tub. The hot tub is enjoyable and just what two little kids needed after a day in the snow.The keyless entry was super simple and worked great. The hotel is right in the middle of north lake and was really easy to get to lots of places. I definitely recommend this place to other travelers.

Exceptionally clean. Appreciated the newer furniture and bedding. Snow removal was great - stairs and parking lot were easy to maneuver. Third floor rooms have views of Kings Beach.Easy contactless check in and checkout, a lot of communication from the property staff — if anything it border-lined too much! Overall great stay

The lodge was wonderful. THE RESERVATION: Mic made our stay extremely comfortable. He responded timely to our questions and made sure we had our needs met. The reservation process is easy and seamless with excellent communication. We also had some personal face to face which wasvery much appreciated as well. THE ROOM: The owners/management truly thought of adding to the room some very useful items; a heat lamp in the bathroom, a gas fireplace (awesome), a nicely appointed bathroom, dresser, desk, table to play games or eat at, two very comfy queen beds and wonderful linens and towels. THE PARKING: very convenient and the snow was getting plowed timely due to the very heavy snow storm. Much appreciated! PRICE: Very happy for this above average, very sweet place to land, for our family holiday near the slopes. For our purpose, it was just what we needed. Thank you to all who made our vacation wonderful 👏

I had a lovely overnight stay here. The location is great, right across the street from a park. You can walk around easily. They have an online check in/check out system and I never interacted with any staff in person. The room was clean, quiet and fully stocked with a minifridge, coffee maker, etc. Highly recommended.

The high ratings you see for this hotel are spot on! They thought of everything from comfy beds and pillows, plenty of towels and coffee, and even a black makeup washcloth! The location was wonderful; directly across from the lake and walking distance to breakfast and pizza. Just a short drive in either direction are two major grocery stores. We loved the fireplace and the furnishings. This will be our “go to” hotel from now on when we stay on this side of the lake.

The room and bed were very comfortable, the cleanest I’ve seen, and attention to detail definitely noticed. So refreshing to walk in to your room and love what you see! The bathroom vanity had pullout drawers so my husband and I had a very accessible place to put our toiletries. The fireplace was wonderful. Such an added plus. The pool was neat, clean and perfectly maintained. We will return and will highly recommend Firelite lodge. It was perfect.

We really liked the ease of self check in. All details were communicated in a timely manner. We stayed over the New Year’s holiday where the snow buried our car. Snow shovels were provided to dig ourselves out. We’d love to see the addition of robes to wear out to the hot tub.View was amazing; really liked having a fireplace and coffee maker.

The hotel room itself was fine and exactly what my husband and I needed for 1 night. The bed was decent. Not the most comfortable but would suffice for a night or two. I loved having a fireplace in there.The bathroom was weird. There was no sink or vanity or anywhere to leave our toiletries and that aspect of the room did not meet my expectations whatsoever and looked nothing like what the hotel advertises online. It quite literally looked and smelled like an old hospice care turned hotel. It legit smelled like a medicine cabinet would… not going to lie, that was extremely off-putting…I will give it 5/5 for cleanliness though.

Cute spot, nicest 2 star hotel ever! It is contactless so there quite a few tech steps involved to check in and find your room. The customer support was helpful. They made up for it when the woman who was working on sight that we happened to see each they as she was leaving…she saw me on crutches by myself and graciously helped me with all my bags to my room. You can’t beat in person service. For the most part no one is on this property so they do their best with phone support and the tech to get you in. Nice fireplace and great bathtub made me happy and I asked for a late check out which they gave to me. I’ll be back :) thank you!

My husband and I really enjoyed our stay in Firelite Lodge! The rooms were clean and spacious. The bathroom was a decent size too. The contactless check in and check out was easy. And they were very hands on keeping in touch to make sure you have a seamless stay. The location was ideal if you’re planning to explore north Tahoe. There are only two things I would probably take points off for, one is for having stiff beds..second is for having no AC, so expect the rooms to be hot if you book in the summer. However, since we were out and about anyway majority of the day, it really wasn’t too bad since it cooled down by nightfall. Overall a great experience and customer service!

This was my fourth stay here. Its super clean-- love the minimalist vibe. Great location, the lake being across the street and easy to access. I love having the fireplace going as I watch the lake from my room. I miss the breakfast and connecting with other travellers. The contactless access was okay but a bit much with all the texts and emails. I would stay here again though.

The whole experience was great and we plan on staying here again the next time were in town. The place is small, but the rooms are well designed and comfortable. We loved being able to walk right out to the heated pool and having a fireplace in our room. The hotel is right across the street from a beach with easy access to food and local attractions. It was nice that the area was not as congested as Tahoe City.

Only comment would be more utensils in kitchen apart from that 10/10 would most definitely return. Thank you Firelite Lodge!

Firelite lodge was an amazing stay. We booked the luxury rooms with a view. And boy was it beautiful to wake up and enjoy the view of lake Tahoe. When we revisit lake Tahoe, I believe we will be looking to book again with this lodge. The pool and hot tub are great if you wanna relax in a shadier water source 😊. I used the hot tub probably way too much.Its a great spot! We utilized the beach right across the street almost every night. If you want to stay in lake Tahoe with family, this is a great location.The only reason I give rooms 4 stars instead of 5 is because the rooms do not have air conditioning, but the weather is so good at lake Tahoe that if you just leave your balcony door open before or during sleep, you will be as cool as you need. The room also came with a small fan to help with airflow.

This place i sthe best stay I have in Tahoe EVER!. We came with a great storm in the winter. The room was very clean, spacious, and good in every condition. The Fire place in the room really helped us serviced the storm and helped us stayed try and warm. The most heart warmed moment is the other morning, our cars are berried in feets of snow. The staff helped dig out every car out of the snow. Only thing I can think of id to put a little humidifier in the room. I could get a little too dry in the night with the fire on. Over all a 10 out of 10 experience! thank you for the host!

We spent a few days at Firelite Lodge and it was great! It is ideally situated close to Kings Beach and Lake Tahoe, and a short drive to Northstar resort where we went snowboarding for this trip. The room was clean and had everything we needed. The small kitchenette was functional with a microwave and disposable utensils. Check in and check out were completely contactless and quite convenient. Would stay there again!

We enjoyed our 4-night stay at the Firelite Lodge! Our small family stayed in a 2-Queen Lakeview over our kids Easter break to take advantage of the great spring skiing. Just 20 minutes from Northstar, the Firelite is situated in a sweet little town with super convenient access to Safeway, drugstores, ski gear rentals, and lots of adorable eateries. The inn overlooks Lake Tahoe, and we had a lovely view of the lake and mountains from the small balcony off our room, which was a great place to take a morning coffee from in-room Keurig. I LOVED the electric fireplace heater, what a luxe upgrade for a 2-star-class hotel!The building is probably an old school motel from the 1950s or 60s when there was a demand for cheap and easy places to crash for a night vs luxury Experiences, but the rooms seem to have been thoughtfully renovated recently, from gray-brown wood-look floors in the bathroom and efficiently-sized furniture, with a small kitchenette with a small bathroom sink, compact microwave and a decent sized mini-fridge. The hotel doesnt allow for cooking equipment like hotplates and such, but overall the kitchenette was just enough for prepping light breakfasts and snacks, and storing and reheating leftovers.TL;DR its a Days Inn/Motel 6-class building but with a lot of well thought-out touches in the room design to help meet modern basic needs.Check-in/out is all contactless. No key to lose, entry/exit uses a keypad code. While there is officially no daily housekeeping, someone comes thru daily to take out the trash and replenish towels.

We have stayed here prior, and the stay has always been great.The rooms are nice, clean, and cozy. We stayed on the 2nd floor with a sitting sofa. A nice view and the sofa was great for reading and watching TV in the evening. The spa was open 9 to 9pm, it would have been nice to have an extra hour until 10pm after a day of hiking. We miss the breakfast in the morning. The location is convenient to hiking areas and the beach is right across the street. The price is reasonable. We will be back in the spring.

My boyfriend and I traveled to Lake Tahoe for a ski trip and to enjoy the beauty of the area. We decided to stay at Firelite Lodge and it was perfect for our 3 night stay! From the moment I booked, I received communication about the upcoming visit - things to do, easy check in process and customer service support. The customer service replies via text were prompt and anytime we needed something, we were provided it! The room was so cozy and I loved the fireplace and let’s say the view from our room was AMAZING! I loved the close proximity to the lake (just across the street) and great restaurants in the area! Would highly recommend this location and will stay again in the future.

This place is very convenient, a cross the street there is a beach with picnic tables, kayak & boat rental.Safeway is five min from here. Parasailing is also 5 min. Sand Harbor is 25 min and south taho 1 hour. Beutiful view of the lake. The internet connection is bad inside the rooms. Just go outside and will work great. There isnt a front desk. They communicate through messages or emails. The whole process was easy.

Bit of an odd place. They are completely contactless, which I think is to their detriment. There is a lobby but its locked and just filled with boxes and work tools. No staff on the property at all, so if anything goes wrong or if you have a question youre on your own. Contactless is not convenient at all if you dont have data - youll have to pay to go use wifi somewhere else and wait for the email that your room is ready and how to get in. Rooms are very dated motel rooms. Carpet was ripping up and sharp in our room, beds are not comfortable, no A/C, showers are too short for anyone over 55 and the water pressure was almost nonexistent. Walls are paper thin, we could hear other guests snoring. So if you need a bed for the night, its fine, but not somewhere Id choose to stay again.

We wish we could have spent more time at the lodge and at Lake Tahoe, but we could only stay one night. We loved the view from the balcony and window, and we were within easy walking distance of places to eat and the post office. The online instructions for check-in and check-out were timely and easy to follow. If we ever visit Lake Tahoe again, we will be sure to check in at Firelite Lodge.

First, I’d like to apologize, or explain,this review is from Melissa Harris, not Jonah, I just can’t figure out how to switch my sons account off of mine, anyway, I digress. We stayed at the Firelite in July and loved it. Comfortable beds, nice sized room, not modern but clean and cozy, nice pool, across from the lake, two great restaurants on either side of you. It was perfect. I would totally stay here again and probably will!

This hotel is in a great location and a great value for the money in Lake Tahoe.Personally I booked this hotel to just crash in for the night and explore the lake for 2 days. Due to the temperature at 85F during the day, the room was a bit warm and had to open the balcony door to cool down the room. Unfortunately there was road construction during both nights and I could not sleep well.Having A/C installed here as planned for next year, would resolve the issue and I would be happy to come back here.

We LOVED our stay at Firelite Lodge! The location is amazing as it is right across the street from a great beach. The area is also very peaceful at night. It is away from the chaos of town, but only a 2 minute drive away. The rooms were very clean and comfortable. The service and amenities were fantastic as well! We found ourselves getting back early to enjoy the hot tub with lake views. Just a heads up, there is no air conditioning. However, we didnt need it at all as the temperature is cold at night (middle of summer)! We will definitely be back!

I really enjoy the room features: microwave/ mini fridge/coffee pods brewer/kitchen sink. They even have paper plates and utensils in the cupboard. It made me easy to fix simple meals for my family. Also the room is clean and spacious. Requests sent over the guest app were responded fast. Given the lodge is located right by the road, it can be noisy with the traffic. But unless you need total quietness, this is a fairly priced option in North Lake tahoe.

Perfectly located at the northern part of the lake, with easy access to restaurants and supermarket (walking distance or a couple of minutes drive).

Service was efficient and responsive, although everything went smoothly and we didn’t have to ask for anything. Highly recommend!

We stayed here 4 nights in June of 2022. Very nice place. They are not EV friendly here, as they have outlets, yet no charging is allowed. Being able to charge at the hotel is such a guest convenience, hopefully they will accommodate that in the future. Even a 110v outlet would be welcomed.We couldn’t get the TV to provide a quality image, which maybe was our fault?? Very clean rooms, and up to date. Google calls this a 2 star, seems like it should be higher.

Great budget friendly place for a short stay in Tahoe. The only critique is that for kids there is no area to run around outside the hotel since it’s across from the lake and on a busy street. Otherwise, clean simple and a good place to rest your head after full skiing days.

Lodge was very clean and in a great location. 3rd floor room has an awesome view of Lake Tahoe no air conditioning but staff said possibly next year would be installed.

This is a great hotel to stay at while in Tahoe, I think this was my third stay. I miss the breakfast they used to provide in the morning, sadly the pandemic claimed another thing. However, their contact free check-in is great, so was the staff who helped along the way. The only downside was the 24/7 construction, which wasn’t terrible but jack hammering at 3am is not my favorite. I would still come back and recommend this place to friends.

The location is perfect and the room was very clean. The fireplace is awesome. My check in experience was easy and efficient. My two complaints are one, the bathtub wouldn’t drain and showering in 6 inches of water was a bit unpleasant. Two, someone walked in on me while I was getting ready. I’m assuming he worked there but since he was in jeans and sweater (no uniform) I’m not 100% sure. He just said “Sorry thought you checked out.” I don’t understand this because it was well before check out, the door was locked, and there was a do not disturb sign on the door. Being a single female traveling alone, it left a bad taste in my mouth. Otherwise it would have been a 4 star review.

I stayed here before the pandemic and it was great. Excellent service and great value for money. Now theyve raised rates and also removed all on premises employees. This means if you need help with anything during your stay you need to text or call them and hope their remote people pick up. Alright fine theyre too cheap to hire someone to sit at the desk, whatever, so whats the huge deal? The huge deal is they dont pay any support people to answer the phone after about 9 or 10pm. I checked in about 10:30pm to find no parking at the hotel. It seems like since no one is on property non guests just use the lot for extra parking and this means you arent guaranteed a spot. I called and texted for help multiple times to no answer. I had to leave my car parked in a dangerous spot and was worried about it being towed all night. When they finally got back to me at 8 the next day they basically treated it as a non issue. I also had issues unlocking the digital door lock as the lock seemed to be sticking due to the cold. I got incredibly lucky it started to work after a while because otherwise I would have had nowhere to sleep due to them not answering the phone even for emergencies. Before you stay here ask yourself if youre willing to sleep in your car if anything goes wrong with your check in since they certainly wont answer the phone if youre coming in late. Also ask yourself if youre willing to not have parking. Alternatively if youre in the Tahoe area and need a place to park a car Id recommend this place since they clearly dont check if youre a guest. I will never stay here again due to this horrific lack of support and will be telling everyone I know to avoid this place in the future

The pool was also very nice with good tanning chairs. I would recommend this place to anyone, and I hope to return soon!!

The people at this place really make a personal connection from the time you make your reservation. Checking in was a breeze and any special requests were responded to immediately. The staff is friendly and helpful and they clearly want their guests to have the best stay possible. They are very responsive. We texted them about a light that was malfunctioning and staff showed up within five minutes to check on it.Checkout is also simple.The room is clean, comfortable and well-designed. The fireplace heats the room and adds to the cozy ambiance.

We wish wecould write a nice review, but I cant. My disabled husband had an emergency health situation the day prior to arrival that didnt allow for travel. The hotel would not allow us to move our reservation to a future date. We didnt expect or request a refund. We simply wanted to stay at a later date when he recovered. We understood that we might have to pay a rebooking fee, but the hotel refused. The representative refused to share the General Managers name and contact info for a deeper conversation and would not identify the owners name or owning groups name. We were unable to find this information online. The hotel kept our $400+ and would not allow us to rebook for a future date.Complete lack of humanity.

This is the perfect lodge for a weekend getaway in Lake Tahoe. We love the location since it’s 18 minutes drive from Northstar and it’s right across from Kings beach. There’s a Safeway nearby and it’s only 1 minutes away. We stopped by the Safeway Starbucks in the morning before we head to Northstar ski resort. The rooms were clean, very comfortable, and it’s super quiet. The staff was amazing too. They called and texted us before and after our visit to check if we need anything. They went over and beyond to help make our stay enjoyable. I highly recommend this hotel for anyone visiting North Lake Tahoe.

Gorgeous Inn! From the moment the reservation is made, the guest is taken care of with personalized, human(!) connection. The Room was warm, welcoming and very clean. (Not just bleached). And the view of the lake was a beautiful sight to wake up to. The staff is clearly working hard to make each stay a positive experience. Many thanks! I’ll be back!

This was a stressful experience met with an unfriendly contactless staff. This is a run down property that doesn’t look anything like the photos. I booked a partial lake view (pictures attached) and called them immediately (CLERICAL and ADMIN never on premises) and was met with resistance with argumentative staff after a long day of traveling. I ended up leaving/they kept my full payment for two nights despite never staying and communicating that. (They agreed to keep 8% and refund me/ them chose to keep all deposits) I chose to book another hotel with a real Lakeview—and I would advise you to avoid this property completely. Two thumbs down! 👎

I am more of hotel guy because places on airbnb does not always have consistent service and room cleanness and I havent booked airbnb for awhile. Butte I am so glad I stayed at Firelite Lodge, it is well exceed my expectations! It feels like home and hotel at the same time! It is spacious and very clean and there will be person do room clean every day just like hotel. Service is also over the top, I initially felt the fireplace didnt provide enough heat and text to firelite staffs and they responded immediately and provide me a space heater in less than an hour and help me to resolve the issue really quickly. Ohh did I mention they are contactless hotel too? Cant recommend this placr enough!

The Cabin at Firelite Lodge was perfect for our group of 2 family couples. All communication with the lodge was quick and easy with a fast response time. The location was great; right across the street from the beach and walking distance to a great pizza place (Jiffys) that we called on one night. A big plus was having an in-room washer and dryer since one couple was taking a quick break from hiking the Pacific Crest Trail. Also the kitchen was nicely equipped with all items needed for quick meals. Comfortable furniture and beds and all toiletry items were provided. There is a grill, picnic table and firepit outside but we did not take advantage of that. Electric fireplace kept us warm and toasty. We will book again next time in the area.

One thing I really want to point out about Firelite Lodge is the fact that their customer service and communication is amazing! THEY call you to confirm booking and departure, along with clear instructions on how to do so. The rooms were very nice with great views. I give them a 10/10 for sure and will definitely return if I make the trip up here again!

The automated services are still not fluent and creates a lot of frustration during the check in process.I booked via third party since the price was way breed than the firelite website. After getting confirmation from the third party I was trying to use the a confirmation code using the website QR code on the lobby’s door. Many trials with no success. Called the customer service and got the check in process going which took more time and back and forth with the agent till it was done. Comparing with traditional check in process it was worse.. after getting the code for the room and trying it multiple times the room was locked and I had to call again customer services to get the room opened. At this stage I had 1% battery left and the phone died before the room was unlocked. Luckily the agent opened it remotely and I was to go in.Finally!After that it was a a standard experience, nice room (little cold though) and normal check out experience

I’m very unhappy about the dishonesty that goes on here. I was charged for a stain on my queen bed, which I noticed when I immediately arrived at 11:30pm but it looked like a stain that had been present for many years. I was too tired from my drive of 6-7 hours and just slept on the bed forgetting to tell them about it. After check out I find out that they are charging me for the stained spots that were previously there before I arrived. I was infuriated. It’s not about the charge, or the paltry fee. If I did it, I wouldn’t mind paying for it. I tipped 20+. But the principle, the dishonesty and charging me for something I did not do. I feel wronged. That is infuriating. I contacted the customer service and they said I should have read the tiny clause and sent them a picture of it. I’m sorry but who reads the clause tiny prints before every hotel stay? Even lawyers don’t do that before every hotel stay. I didn’t care about the fee but wanted an apology for them dishonestly charging me. But they refused. Next time you go here, take a picture of all the #towels, #blankets in case they charge u for something you did not do. The pure dishonesty is infuriating and unacceptable.

This lodge is fantastic. The rooms are clean and updated, fireplace heaters add that little bit of charm and the kitchenette is a nice bonus for those staying more than one night. We had a room with a balcony and a view of the lake across the street. Our stay was during the week and, unseasonably quiet for Tahoe during Thanksgiving week but, the property was quiet day and night. There is an ice maker on the second floor (with the GOOD ice) and a water bottle fountain attached. There is also a washer and dryer available (for a price) in the same location. Those are locked up by 9. The location is perfect! 15 minutes to Truckee, 10-15 to Tahoe City and about 25 to Stateline.The service was great. This place has moved to a contactless check-in/check-out. This is good but, also lacking in the more personal aspect of smaller lodges. I just had a hard time finding/contacting someone in person (at the front desk) with a non-important detail or two. The housekeeper was gracious and took care of our needs and, as stated, the needs were not of an urgent matter so, I didn’t pursue trying to track anyone down.

Went for a snowboarding trip and found this place which was affordable yet still very nice. Staff was very responsive, I like how I could text them for anything I needed and they responded right away. The rooms were spacious, clean and modern. We were right across from the lake so the views were gorgeous. Walking distance from a few restaurants and close to grocery stores as well. The hottub was also a nice additive after a long day of snowboarding. Only downside was that I didn’t have any signal but there was free wifi!

Change of ownership unfortunate.Price and location are great but vibe is very very poor.We have stayed at this property for several years and have enjoyed their family friendly atmosphere, including Eastern European lobby hosts. Opposite this year. When told we were planning to check out at 11 AM we were lectured. In meantime the jacuzzi was out of service most of our stay; internet was intermittent; pool equipment was loud and disfunction-able beginning at 5AM.Too bad - we won’t stay there again. Service matters.

I love booking at Firelite lodge, its been a few years that I spend some days in winter going to Tahoe, and I found Firelight lodge to be super convenient, affordable, and comfortable to stay at. This is my third season going to Tahoe in winter and I really enjoyed the contactless check in and checkout procedures. I highly recommend this place. Conveniently located between Northstar and Palisades/Alpine, easy to travel to any of the two resorts. Looking forward to the next time Im there.

Rooms are pretty new, fireplace is a great feature however its thermostat sometimes cant figure out whether to start or stop it (its real, gas) so it keeps turning the fire on and off. Id also recommend installing bathroom fans, as taking a shower makes the mirrors unusable, etc. Overall, great location, nearby steakhouse is really good.

I will definitely stay here again- very clean, easy check-in/out process, great view of the lake and good directions provided to use wi-fi, mini kitchen appliances etc. They are currently not using a person to person check in process- so I received my door code and room readiness alerts through text. It was SO easy but they still called a day in advance of my stay to provide direction on what to expect, see what I needed and make a connection~ so even without meeting face to face, I felt the staffs service in all the great little touches they do from beginning to end..

· The location was perfect. We were able to walk to the beach and kayak rental across the street, and the view from the hotel was beautiful. I loved the kitchen area inside the room- I was able to store our food in a cabinet. The bathroom had a window which was a huge plus. I loved being on the ground floor and having a sliding door out to a patio where I could sit and drink coffee and read. Plus we were able to walk out that door to the pool and office easily. The breakfast was nice- the fresh fruit was a nice option. The facilities were clean and quiet.

Pros: self-check in was convenient. Good location across the street from lake.

I have to say that these folks have it down when it comes to cleanliness and convenience. We were boarding on Northstar which is an easy drive to and from. Restaurants and groceries were super close. My only gripe is the parking was very tight for longer vehicles. Granted there was a ton of snow, like 10 feet! So maybe in normal days the spots are longer. Regardless, it was a great stay for the price… and they cleaned our room daily! The Fairmont in SF did not even do that at $900/night. Kudos to the staff for a great job. If you stay, make sure to tip the staff in the provided envelope. Cheers!!

The location is great: 3 mins drive to a Safeway, 15 mins drive to North Star. It also has lake view when you just come out of the hotel.Utilities: It’s pretty clean with great facilities, like microwave and a refrigerator. Very convenient!Noise: It’s a little bit noisy with window open because it’s near a road. But with window closed, the noise become acceptable. At least I was not disturbed during my sleep.I would put a small suggestion about the TV hdmi connection. We brought Nintendo switch to play games together with our friends. It’s a little bit disappointed to see the HDMI not working. But overall we are very satisfied with our stay here!

We weren’t overly thrilled with this place. Cute hotel, close to the beach. Breakfast was good, waffles, oatmeal, bread, fruit, cereal, and coffee. The breakfast area was extremely small to get breakfast kinda wedged in the corner. Bathroom was small especially for a family of four. Beds were OK. Our biggest issue was the temperature of the room. The room never cooled down forcing us to keep the door open since there was no AC. But because you are so close to the road you heard every vehicle that went by. So if you are a light sleeper like I am pay the extra money and go somewhere else, because I didn’t sleep for the two nights I was there. I must have missed the NO AC description in the hotel amenities. 🤷🏻‍♀️

From the time we arrived to the time we left me and my friend constantly commented on what a sweet location this lodge is. We traveled here for a snowboarding trip and this lodge put us smack dab in the middle of squaw and northstar. Room was spotless and warm. We did have 1 small issue with the door our code stoped working and within texting the team here they had it fixed and us back in the room within 5 minutes. Water pressure in the showers is awesome...hot tubs nice as well. Pizza the next building over and a uptown steak house 200 ft away. Also the lake is a 15 second walk and the views are wonderful! All in all this place will be my go to spot when visiting!!! Our vacation was seamless and comfortable!!! Thanks firelite....until next time!!!!!
