“Not impressed”

Reviewed 10 April 2013

I was first stunned that we reserved our room 2 weeks in advance and told they would charge our accout that day....okay. When we arrived the room was just not as lovely as the photos, although,okay.....but certainly not for the price! The ';breakfast' was so sorry that we fed it to our 2 small dogs and laughed that we should... More

Problem with this review?

Dear Judy, We are disheartened that you did not enjoy your stay and more so that this was not conveyed to us while you were our guest but rather four months later via an online posting disallowing for us to resolve any issues for you or better understand your comments. We have searched our computer system so that we could... More

“very nice place”

Reviewed 15 March 2013

We (a couple) recently stayed for two nights and enjoyed the lodge as a very nice place. We had a room with two queen beds, a fireplace, a fridge and a microwave (which we did not use). This place is very conveniently located just two blocks from the Heavenly gondola and we had a great skiing vacation just walking over,... More

“Perfect cozy stay”

Reviewed 14 March 2013 via mobile

We stayed here in an anniversary trip. The location is perfect- tucked away from the main street around the lake, so its quiet, but close enough to walk. Our room was clean, comfortable, and well designed. I loved the extra chubby storage in the bathroom! We did have issues with the water changing temps, but it seemed to be a... More

“Poor Customer Service”

Reviewed 13 February 2013 via mobile

I booked a stay in September on 2/2 then learned in another review that there was no air conditioning. I called 2/3 to cancel the reservation and was told there would be a $35 cancellation fee. I disputed this because I didn't recall seeing a cancellation fee when booking. It turns out that it's in small print and shorthand (Reg... More

Dear Cycler1, I am regretful to hear of your disappointment and desire for air-conditioning. We find little need for it, living in the mountains, and we do have ceiling fans in every room; but some travelers prefer AC. We strive to ensure our potential guests book a place they like. Yes, we do have a cancellation policy and clearly outline... More

“Mixed Feelings”

Reviewed 9 February 2013

We stayed here on our honeymoon in late September 2011. The website was a little misleading on the quality we expected. It was very quaint and the beds were nice. But the sound traveled through the walls. While the newly remodeled bathroom was a great design the stone tile showers mixed with the lukwarm water made for a quick cold... More

“great location, rooms, staff”

Reviewed 1 February 2013

We booked the Avalon Lodge on Expedia for a last minute ski trip and are glad we did! The rooms were huge, the beds so comfortable, the staff was extremely helpful and went out of their way to help us with dinner reservations. It was a short walk to the gondola and dinner, but far enough from the highway that... More

“Friendly and comfortable and a great deal”

Reviewed 26 January 2013

Another business trip took me back to the Carson Valley and I was able to get a good deal at the Avalon Lodge and spend a day on the slopes. I'd been there soon after they first opened and was happy to see all the progress they'd made. The staff was very welcoming and eager to recommend restaurants and entertainment... More

“Super Stay”

Reviewed 10 April 2011

We are always hearing wonderful comments about our beds, which having a place to sleep is the main reason one gets a hotel room. So we decided to be sure that we have the most comfortable beds in South Lake Tahoe and we do! But a hotel is not just about the bed. We are constantly revisiting training with our... More

Reviewed 20 January 2013

I had high hopes for this hotel. It was my birthday weekend and I was really looking forward to a nice getaway in the snow. This hotel just about ruined it. I wouldn't stay here again if I were paid to. We have been to many, many hotels and this was the worst place I have ever stayed. * The... More

We truly apologize for your experience, this is not something that we find acceptable either and our manager did extend a refund to you upon learning of your experience from our staff. We do wish that you had contacted the front desk about your noisy neighbors. The property is staffed 24 hours a day and we do walk the property... More

“Great location”

We stayed at the Avalon Lodge because we saw a good deal on TravelZoo. This place is a 5 minute walk to the Heavenly gondola so it was perfect for my husband to ski.
