Top Rubicon Trailhead South Hotel Reviews

Hotel Azure

10/10 Excellent

"The staff are very helpful. The hot tub is also amazing."

Golden Nugget Hotel & Casino Lake Tahoe

10/10 Excellent

"I was genuinely impressed with the Golden Nugget in South Lake Tahoe. The room was very clean, modern, and surprisingly spacious. The casino itself may be the cleanest casino I’ve ever visited, and they also had a great craps table. I usually stay and gamble in Reno, so I had no idea South Lake Tahoe had such a nice setup. I walked in and immediately thought, “Wow, this place is really nice.” I’ll definitely be back!"

Camp Richardson Historic Resort

8/10 Good

"Needed first floor due to an injury could not help due to booking through 3rd party....had stairs only which was difficult due to injury. room was good and parking was open. wi fi worked well. No tv in rooms....which was a nice change. There is a bear problem so keep nothing in your car/truck"
