The Lodge At Kingsbury Crossing

We own a timeshare here and appreciate the serenity that this place offers. The entry way is nicely decorated and the rooms are very clean and spacious. The staff is always outstanding and they offer movie night with popcorn in their main conference room.

We stayed here last week and had the best time! All employees were very friendly and accommodating. Rooms were lovely! Fully stocked kitchen, separate bedroom and living room. Slept 3 adults and one toddler very comfortably. Won’t stay anywhere else in South Lake.

Great place to stay! Great location in walking distance to food, shopping, lake, and casinos, walking paths everywhere. Friendly staff, laundry, game room, fire place, very, very, very clean. The one thing I wish I brought was a good skillet from home. The kitchen is fully stocked with everything you need… just one, sticky skillet. Will be back!

Total awesomeness!!!
#1 if you’re looking for a quiet getaway this is your ticket!
#2 if you want a beautiful room that has lovely furnishings and well equipped kitchen! To include blender, microwave, stovetop, fridge, dishwasher! All the plates, cups, cutlery, and pots and pans this is again for you!!! (don’t forget your own condiments)
#3 lodge is great! Pool table, juke box. Apparently they also have movies you can borrow! Great right?!
#4 very sweet employees!
#5 movie night on Thursday!
#6 washer/​dryer facilities which is a definite perk!
#7 nice indoor hot tub which is huge and has a lift for someone wheelchair bound which I found to be thoughtful!
#8 sauna
#9 free coffee in the lobby and some snacks
It truly is the best choice for a «home away from home» the tranquility is without comparison! You’re only a hop skip and a jump to the clubs and the action! But you aren’t staying at a place that is dirty and seedy as most of the other lodging in town. The price is reasonable for everything included !! Plus when you find cheaper accommodations and tack on the resort fee per night, its a no brainer. almost forgot to mention the very beautiful lobby equipped with reproduction Picasso paintings.
Thank you for a nice, clean, beautiful place to call home for a couple days !

Check in: waited for acknowledgement for 8 minutes.
Parking: limited and not enough parking for all guests. In addition, parking not accessible for all sizes of vehicles
Rooms: very well decorated and clean
NO AIR CONDITIONING. NO POOL… very restrictive accessibility to the indoor spa… basically, you’re not welcome to use the facilities. OPPRESSIVE lack of air in the rooms and throughout the facility.
Front desk was RUDE when asked any questions, including little kids who wanted help and were told to come back later as «it is very busy and you will have to come back later».
We left the lodge a day early and secured reservations elsewhere, THAT is how bad the experience was during our stay.
GOOD — the maintenance people on site were very nice and polite.

No air conditing! No Pool! No air conditioning! No Pool! No AC! No Pool! Do not stay here in the summer! No one told us!!! Give me the choice! It’s hot at 4^th of July!
Lovely otherwise.

This is the second time we’ve stayed and I love it! The staff is nice and helpful, the rooms are clean, beautiful and comfortable and the prices are great. It is perfectly located and has great views. We will be back for sure.

A friend owns timeshare here at this location and we have had the privilege to join them twice for a Tahoe vacation. The Lodge is a great place that is away from the crowds of South Lake Tahoe. The location has warm and inviting staff. Most recently they offered a movie night with popcorn in the main reception area. We did have a little problem with the heat, but maintenance was right up and super personable while addressing the issue. There is not a pool here, but there is a very large indoor hot tub. The rooms are comfortable and allow for in room cooking if you so desire. I look forward to having my friends invite us back again in the near future.
What did I learn today? The front desk has a large and current selection of DVDs to use at no charge.

I’m not sure what has gone on here in the past, but I can tell you that as of right now this place is great and we will be back. The wifi works excellently, unlike the reviews have said. It is clean, well appointed with new flatscreens and they rooms are nice. I’m so glad I didn’t listen to the prior reviews!

My grandparents have had a timeshare here ever since I can remember so I’ve been coming here since I was a little girl. This place holds very many dear memories for me so it’s easy for me to overlook some things that would otherwise irk me about this place.
The pros about Kingsbury Crossings are it’s near the Tahoe strip, close to beaches, close to shopping stores, they have some awesome amenities available to guest, staff is friendly and rooms are always comfortable and clean.
The cons? It’s very outdated. If you plan to go in the summer months, be advised there isn’t AC. They do provide a fan in your room as well as ceiling fans but since I already knew there was going to be no AC, I still brought a small fan from home. Things are always either broken, out of order, or down for maintenance. It’s quite annoying to have to use the stairs to get to the 3^rd floor with your luggage because the elevator is not working. Breakfast is not provided anymore except for on Sundays I believe. Even then, the breakfast consists of tiny muffins and barely anything else. It’s not even worth going to the lobby for what they provide. But the biggest thing that irks me the most is before you check out, you must strip all linens from the beds and gather all towels and place them in the hamper provided, you also have to make sure all dishes are clean before you leave as well. If you don’t do this you could be charged for a cleaning fee! I mean I get not leaving your room trashed and disgusting but I find it ridiculous to have to basically leave the room how you entered or else get threatened with a cleaning fee.
All in all it’s a nice place, it just has it’s issues LOL. Personally I don’t think I’d get a timeshare here but it’s ok to stay at if nothing else

After our first night here, I have to say this was a great choice for stay. The condo is fantasticly comfy, the staff are very kind and accommodating, and it seems like a quiet choice. Other than drawing a short stick and getting lousy «neighbors» (which can happen anywhere), you would have to be very nit-​picky and negative not to like this place and that’s not even taking into consideration the low price. Highly recommend.
The one bone to pick, is the very friendly people at the front desk seem to be completely overwhelmed. In the multiple occasions of needing to go to the front desk (for things like the grill lighter, etc…) they were almost always on the phone with other clients calling and from overhearing the calls, it seemed like they got a lot of «tough» ones. Seriously, I am pretty sure we hit up the front desk 5 times or so in our 4 days there and I cannot recall them ever being free and off the phone. Seems a little understaffed in that area I suppose.

Had a great time. The condo was great, even though only had half kitchen there was a cool microwave/​convection oven combo that was wonderful and two electric burners so it was no problem.
The staff was awesome, very friendly.
Location was great for us, not on the main drag with all the hustle and bustle of the casinos but close enough to get to guickly.
Awesome whirlpool and steam room and the lobby was outstanding with big couches and fireplace. The game room was a nice touch with a pool table and some video games and a TV.
We will definitely be back.

Great place ! very spacious & modern. Love the indoor Jacuzzi after snowboarding.
Quiet and close to town. staff super friendly

Pretty bummed about our experience here. Easy reservation was done well in advance and the three of us girls were stoked for girl weekend and iration. I called the day before to confirm our reservation and make sure my payment was accepted. Talked to a girl who said yes your booked and you’ve paid. 7 hours later another gal called to say we hadn’t paid and we were going to lose our reservation. I argued since I was upset, reasonably I think. Anyway the whole issue with the reservation meant I knew I was putting up 4 stars before we got here. Our room was nice and comfy but I have two reasons why I knocked off another star. One, the water control in the shower is awful and by the time I got it right it was only hot for 5 mins. Secondly, no breakfast? Not even a banana? The last star was knocked off because of the ridiculous parking situation. I drove my big lifted pickup truck (I mean duh, we’re in the mountains!-little D&D humor for our comedy fans out there) and we couldn’t park in the lot for our building since it’s like half a parking garage in the back meant only for a Vespa. Yikes. We had to hoof it from parking in BFE with our heavy bags in the freezing icy cold.
All in all, I guess I’d come back if we had a big group, it’s good for that, but only if someone else made the reservation, drove, and carried my bags lol.

Coming for years. It gets better and better. Great staff

You will enjoy the stay here! Very comfortable mini-​suites. The one we stayed in was a 2 bedroom suite.
A fully stocked mini kitchenette, shower/​bath/​spa restroom, double sink, dinning area, fire place, sofa bed, spacious closets and NO AIR-​CONDITIONING!
It’s the middle of August and hot, but no a/​c! Ugghh!
Anyhow, there is a laundry room but if you have no detergent the front desk will sell you some for $ 1.00. Free movies rentals (2 Max per day). A playroom for the kids is available. If 5 stars is like the best stay this is a 3 cuz NO AIR-​CONDITIONING IS AVAILABLE AT ALL!

Our family had a timeshare, unfortunately — due to Wyndham’s Tahoe peak season, we weren’t able to get our room. So here am i, looking through expedia two weeks before my trip and *POOOOOF* i found this place. It’s like i rubbed a magic lamp and this place popped up.
I was skeptical about this place. I’m a big fan of reading reviews when it comes to ANYTHING. This place had mixed reviews, and from all the booking websites, it had really nice pictures of the place. Why not give it a shot? For two nights i only paid about $ 180, compared to those other hotels which didn’t have all the timeshare’s amenities. Thinking it was peak season and it was actually a timeshare, i expected more.
The hotel exceeded my expectations. We got there a few minutes before our check-​in time and the staff made us feel at home. The wi-​fi was only available around the lobby, but there’s couches and a few tables and chairs in the game room to give yourself some personal space.
The room had everything we needed, from a microwave to spoons, dishes, forks and all the basic kitchen appliances. The downside was — no AC! But i mean, seriously? Would you need it around winter season? At least our family didn’t.
The lodge also had a spa you could enjoy, make sure you simply exchange your room key for a spa key — i don’t see anything wrong with that.
Parking space — yup. Unilocal reviewers were right, and i’ll add to that population. Parking space is very limited so make sure you get your spot!
Overall, i liked the ambiance of the place. Their game room was a plus with a pool table + some old school arcade games. Oh, and i forgot to mention, their coffee maker was the best ever. Its not your typical coffee maker, saved me my starbucks money.
I’d honestly stay here again, it was about 5 minutes away from Harrah’s, which makes it so much more convenient. I highly recommend this place to everyone, unless you’re the type of person who enjoys the benefits of full room service free of charge, then this isn’t what you’re looking for. =)

Not bad! From the outside the building looks a little beat up, but the rooms are quite nice. Fridge, stovetop, and microwave.

Pros
–comfortable bed
–quiet
–fridge and half kitchen but NO OVEN
–check-​out is11:00 am
Cons
–NO AIR CONDITIONING
— light switches are on the outside of the rooms (bathroom/​bedroom)
–did I mention.
NO AIR CONDITIONER???
Forget your vacation… You have to completely clean EVERYTHING BEFORE YOU LEAVE!!! (wash all dishes, utensils, pots, pans, skillets, fridge, microwave, and oven which you don’t even have!!!)
You MUST strip all linens and towels and put them in the laundry basket!!!
Did you happen to lose or misplace your key? Well that will cost you $ 10 per key!
They will charge you a $ 35 cleaning fee if you happen to miss something!!!
WTF IS THIS!!! I thought we were on vacation! Why do I have to take off all of the sheets and towels!
Even if you put the privacy please tag on the door, they still barge in on you whenever they feel is convenient to them!
They do not provide beach towels to use. If you take the ones in your room to use, they will call and threaten to charge you for them!
Forget asking for anything from the maid if she’s not in front if your room with the cart because they will call and threaten you to give the item back, even though they forgot to give you one towel for your room.
ABSOLUTELY NO PRIVACY!
Room smelled like horrible sewer smell from the hallway and they did nothing about it!
This resort is run by tricom management. If this is the kind of place this is, you may not even want to visit their other facilities!
The staff is very rude and sarcastic.
Classic movies are OLD! Most on VHS! They have some DVDs but they’re «classics» too.
Internet connection SUCKS here!
You can NOT use the fireplace June through August!!! WTF???
They will charge you if you want anything cleaned in your room during your stay!
The vending machines have old food in them and eat your money!
The Libby is on lock down from 11pm-​7am !!
No pets! No exceptions! Even service animals!
You must exchange your room key for a spa key so don’t think about using the spa without their exclusive permission!
Needless to say, we will be staying elsewhere on our next visit!

I am so glad that I did not read the previous reviews before staying here. I may have decided against it. Not to say that these reviews aren’t valid, rather, my experience was amazing!
I’m a wedding photographer and was hired for a wedding later in the afternoon. I arrived a bit early (long drive + no traffic!) and they were able to give me an early check in. It gave me a chance to settle in and take a breather before getting the gear ready. I really appreciated that.
The lobby was absolutely gorgeous. It had a lot of old-​style country as well as Victorian décor. They made the two styles mesh seamlessly.
The staff was amazing! I was told at the time of booking as well as check-​in that there was no one in the lobby in the evenings. When booking this place, I did read somewhere that the «making the beds» as well as cleaning up after guests were not included, so I was already expecting this. I do travel in my line of work and have some to expect that a place this nice, at $ 53 a night, these terms are completely acceptable to me.
My family joined me the day after I photographed the wedding and we stayed for another couple more days. I was able to cook there and the kids were able to enjoy the park and the bike trails that are just across the street. Everything I needed was there and my hubby and I have already decided that this place is where we will be staying on our next visit this fall!
