Great value especially on weekdays, plus no charge for my dog, which normally would have cost $10-25 per night in other hotels. I used to stay in 3peaks resort a few blocks away but found this place a better value, similar if not same facility level. I always get what seems to be the older rooms in 3 peaks, though... More

Great motel! The price was very very good, and it offered much more than I expected for this kind of price. The room is well stocked with some snacks you can buy, free coffee making facilities, also of good size and very very clean. The beach is not far away (5-10 min walk) which is a plus. Beware of construction... More

Very cheap and a great location. I agree with another comment that if you get a room with an adjoining door you can hear everything, so get earplugs. Great Taqueria right next door. Walking distance to casinos etc.

stayed here for 2 nights. the place is clean, rooms were big and nice. TV was very old... walls are very fine so pray that you neighboors will be quite. the location is nice and close to the main street. good water presher at the shower.

You can find much nicer accommodations in South Lake but considering the convenience of the location and the price, I think the list of choices in this category are pretty slim if you are not getting comp'd at a hotel. I got a room with the kitchenette and although the kitchen part itself overall was 100% laughable, the room I... More

Stayed here for a quick skiing overnight trip. I agree with other reviewers that it is scrupulously clean and it is across the street and around the corner from the gondola, but I don't think it provides value for the money compared to similarly priced places equally close by. The biggest issue was how noisy and old and run down... More

You can't get better than this for the money. My family and I stayed here two weeks ago for a spontaneous budget-friendly trip to the snow in South Lake Tahoe. I am very hesitant to stay in hotels/motels in this area because most look cheap and seedy and, on our last trip, my husband booked us into a budget hotel... More

I find it hard to believe that other travelers describe Big Pines as comfy, inviting, or pleasant in any sense. I am used to traveling on a budget, but the bare skeleton of a room we had (and we booked the full "kitchen") was worse than my son's run down college dorm. On top of it, they had overbooked the...
