Fodor's Review:
An old-fashioned family resort, Camp Richardson is built around a 1920s lodge, with a few dozen cabins and a small inn, all tucked beneath giant pine trees on 80 acres of lakefront land on the southwest shore of Lake Tahoe. The rustic log cabin-style lodge has simple, straightforward accommodations. The cabins (one-week minimum in summer) have lots of space, fireplaces, or woodstoves, and full kitchens; some units sleep eight. The Beachside Inn has more modern amenities and sits right on the lake, but its rooms feel like an ordinary motel. Best of all, the resort sits well off the road and there's tons of space; kids have a blast here. A glass-bottom trimaran makes trips to Emerald Bay directly from the resort. Rates drop significantly in winter, making it a bargain for skiers and off-season travelers. Pros: Wide choice of accommodations, beautiful lakeside location. Cons: No phones or TVs in some rooms, no Internet access.
