Had a wonderful stay at this motel redone as a hotel and even tho the floorboards creaked and we felt the building shake sometimes, a testament to how old the building is, all the pros outweighed those cons. They had a great brewery attached to the hotel with great food and a great outdoor area with games and a fire pit for smores. We walked everywhere and across the street were all the casinos and on the California side was all the shops and restaurants. We never used the spas due to the cold but maybe next time!

We had an overwhelming amount of ants in our room and our heater made this insane loud noise about every 30 minutes that woke us up from our sleep. We decided to just turn it off and freeze instead of having broken sleep. We told front desk - they offered us free coffee. In which the staff at the coffee bar was extremely rude. Disappointing for sure!

Love this place!
Basecamp was amazing. Nice rooms and great amenities. Loved the outdoor area with fire pits and a brewery and pizza joint. Very eco friendly with a great healthy breakfast in the office. Walking distance to the best that South Tahoe has to offer.

Comfy, cute and efficient
I stayed at Basecamp on a solo trip for a couple days. They are very efficient with checking in and checking out process. The room was clean, comfortable and very cute. There’s a coffee shop and brewery on the grounds that has live music. Cute seating area outside with a couple fire pits. They are also pet friendly. I’ll definitely stay here again.
