All accommodations include a fully equipped kitchenette with utensils, a full oven with a stovetop, cabinet space, a microwave, a full or mini-fridge, a dishwasher, and a coffee machine.

Dining: Spindleshanks Restaurant

Spindleshanks Tahoe Restaurant is housed in a modern lodge on the Old Brockway Golf Course in Kings Beach. Guests can then enjoy a stroll through their garden, which hosts a variety of native species. North Lake Tahoe has cafes and restaurants for breakfast.

Leisure: Lake Tahoe Activities

The Franciscan Lakeside Lodge has a private beach and pier. Guests can use picnic tables and propane grills, and play volleyball. An outdoor heated pool is open seasonally on the forest side of the property. Nearby, guests can visit Tahoe Regional Park, one mile away, with a sledding hill, or the Tahoe City Winter Sports Park, which offers a rink in the heart of Tahoe City. The Treetop Adventure Park has 9 courses consisting of 54 obstacle bridges and challenges and 39 ziplines.

Location: North Lake Tahoe

Located in Tahoe Vista on the northeast shore of Lake Tahoe, The Franciscan Lakeside Lodge is one mile from The Tahoe Regional Park. It is 85 km from Reno-Tahoe International Airport. Landmarks nearby include Kings Beach State Recreation Area (2 km), Moon Dunes Beach (0.5 km), and North Lake Tahoe (2 km).

Services: Dedicated Staff

The Franciscan Lakeside Lodge provides complimentary parking and Wi-Fi. Guests have access to a private beach and pier reserved for guests. The lodge has a linen reuse program, changing sheets and towels every three days unless requested otherwise. The lodge encourages guests to use reusable water bottles.

“What strikes me is the unpretentious charm, a refreshing change from the expected hotel experience, which is perfectly captured by the rustic decor. The well-equipped kitchenettes give you the flexibility to cook, and the location is a launchpad for North Shore adventures; that's smart planning. And I think that having access to a beach and a dock seals the deal for a relaxed Tahoe getaway.”
