My family and I love this hotel! My parents first recommended it and I have been to the property on several occasions. In fact, I just booked another trip there. It is a lovely location and many of the rooms have lake views. The rooms are very comfortable, clean, and well-appointed. They are cozy and each have a fireplace which... More

We ended up at the Best Western Timber Lodge after we used Priceline. The hotel was in a great location in town, and right on the lake! Our room was very nice, very clean, and we had a gas fireplace and a view of the lake! Rooms were very quiet despite the hotel being crowded. Free breakfast was good, eggs... More

This is THE best hotel experience I have had in 2 1/2 years of business travel. From the moment I walked in the door upon arrival until I checked out 2 days later, the staff made me feel "at home". The room was well appointed and clean. The amenities were PERFECT. The price could not have been better. I will... More

I feel silly writing this review as I really didn't partake in many of the services they offer. So, my extremely pared down review is that it was wonderful. Because we were there for a wedding, we had many events to attend that left us without the chance to try the food. However, upon checking out during Sunday breakfast hours,... More

Dear “Missy F” Please do not feel ‘silly’ about writing any reviews. It greatly helps fellow travelers and it tremendously helps a Hotel like ours, especially when a review comes in with such great accolades.

This was our first time in South Lake Tahoe & choosing Timber Cove Best Western made it even more of a memorable stay. The location was excellent: on the lake, near local stores, ski resorts, restaurants, casinos, etc. We stayed during the week & arrived when it was snowing. We were in room 503 so our lakeside room was very... More

Their service was wonderful, they offered to take our bags to our room but we got to the room with our bags before the trolly was ready. The room was cute and cozy but not as big asI had hoped for.

We went to Tahoe for my daughter's 18th birthday and to go skiing. We got two rooms and one had two beds and the other one king. The rooms are not overly spacious but adequate. However, the rooms were fine for us as we only had 2 people in each room. The gas fireplaces are a nice and cozy added... More

Timber cove loge is a surprising find. I have been going there for about six years. The Rooms are cozy and have fireplaces. The rooms are clean and comfortable and all have balcony's. The property's location couldn't be better with rooms that face the lake. To get to the night life and casinos you can take a short bus ride... More
