A word to the warm to be wise....

Typically, summer temperature on the south side of Lake Tahoe run 10 to 15 degrees below what is being experienced “off the hill” in Sacramento and Reno. While this spread is holding true this year its been warmer than usual at The Lake. Temperature this week will average 85 degrees!

Like the great blue lake, the INN remains cool as one of the few centrally air-conditioned properties in South Lake. Our family fun center, Tahoe Bowl, was also air conditioned last summer. Trust me, this is not a cheap marketing ploy but a public service announcement. See other sections of our website for cheap marketing ploys.

As you have no doubt read and we have experienced, travel plans are being made at the last minute. Inn by the Lake’s reservation counts rise sharply one to two weeks out. We have some attractive weekend/mid-week discounts and packages available on this site or via our 800 number. While there are a finite number of packages and room types available, we endeavor to honor these percentage discounts to the last day possible, We not only want your initial business but hope to earn your repeat patronage with our value offerings.

Quite candidly, it is not a good idea to drive into the Tahoe basin (especially on a weekend) without a room reservation. When the room supply is tight, rates can escalate at some lodging establishments beyond what you may consider fair and reasonable.

These are just suggestions, as we want you to enjoy your Lake Tahoe experience regardless of where you bed down for the night.

Happy Trails,
Dan
