I have to say, first off, I'm impressed with the level of work and care the owners put into this place, taking time to chat with all the guests. The rooms are beautifully decorated, like a log cabin, with paintings. The mattresses are topped with a memory foam padding that gave me some of the best sleep I've ever had.... More

We stayed at the Shore House for 2 nights on 16th and 17th May 2013. It was everything we were hoping for and we had a fantastic stay. Our initial welcome was by Rusty who showed us our room (the Lakeview) and the facilities including tea, coffee, snacks etc available in the kitchen 24/7. She made us feel so welcome... More

Pro: nicely renovated 1950s motel. Food and service are of a high quality. Lakeside setting. Cons: Substantial noise from adjacent highway. Tiny TV in room. Small barely updated bathroom We visited in the bargain season. I do not believe that this hotel is worth the rack rate charged in the summer.

A few comments in response: We do offer 5 of our rooms with Big Sceen TVs, and 4 of our rooms with small hidden discreet TVs. We know that many of our guest prefer Big Screen TVs, but some of our guests prefer no TV at all. The descriptions of our rooms include which option is offered. Yes, most of... More

Although it wasn't our honeymoon we stayed in the honeymoon cottage and it was perfect; beautiful accommodation, spectacular location, lovely people with fantastic tips on how to get the most out of our time in Lake Tahoe. Great breakfasts every morning and wine in the evening sitting right in front of the lake. Wonderful all round, can't say enough about... More

My husband and I recently spent a long weekend at the Shore House for my birthday and loved every minute. Marty and his team are wonderful and gracious hosts. Although we live only an hour away, whenever we "escape to the lake" it will be to the Shore House. Thanks Marty!

We stayed at the Shore House for 3 nights at the end of April/beginning of May and thoroughly enjoyed the experience. We stayed in the Forest Room on the ground floor. To look out of the window onto the magnificent view of the lake and mountains in the distance is just sublime. The scenery around Tahoe is fantastic and we... More

First time in Tahoe and it couldn't have been better. The location was perfect. Close enough to great restaurants, hiking, sight seeing, casinos and all water activities. We spent three wonderful nights here and can't wait to go back! Marty is a wonderful host. The food was amazing along with the view. The bed was the most comfortable bed ever!... More

Above and beyond the best place to stay in Tahoe. Not only do you have a private beach, Marty is just wonderful. He truly cares about your overall experience from your breakfast, afternoon wine/appetizers, and dinner reservations. We have stayed at the Shore House several times and try to stay in a different room each time. The morning breakfast is... More

My boyfriend booked a stay for us at The Shore House as a belated Valentine's gift. As soon as we arrived, Marty was so accommodating and friendly and the view of the lake is unbeatable. Complimentary glasses of wine and homemade cookies awaited us! We stayed in the Art Studio and it was the definition of cozy. Perfect for a... More

Above and beyond guest service. The food was world class. Marty is a great host who cares about your experience. Its fun to meet with other guests in a great environment. The location cannot be beat. We will definitely try our hardest to return to the Shore House when we return to Lake Tahoe.
