it seems like they’re doing the absolute bare minimum, the heater in my room doesn’t work even though the lows at night we’re in the 30’s during our stay! we were freezing and attempted to get extra blankets multiple times but couldn’t get ahold of anyone. there are only a few hours a day when there is an actual staff person on the site so if your keys stop working, you need extra things, or just need assistance in general there is no one around to help! the carpets are stained, the wall paper is peeling off and there is no extra chain lock on the doors.

The sheets had burn holes and the blankets were ripped. Bathroom shower needs to be redone. The room wasn't horrible and ok for a night stay but I wouldn't recommend unless there was nothing else available. Pros it is really close to the Lake and has a nice view if your room is in the tower. Close to the Fat Cat which had yummy food

Pepper Tree Inn is a step above a regular motel. Its location is perhaps its best feature as you can see the Lake Tahoe from your window (if located on a high floor). The rooms are clean, although the bathrooms need remodeling. We did not interact with the staff since they have limited on-site presence but communicated via text and they were excellent in responding to our needs.
