South Lake Tahoe Undergoing Multi-Million Dollar Transformation

Lake Tahoe's South Shore is undergoing a vibrant transformation. Harveys Lake Tahoe is in the early stages of a $160 million renovation, enhancing guest rooms, casino floors, and outdoor spaces - mingling contemporary design with mountain vibes and honoring its High Sierra location. This investment breathes new life into one of Tahoe’s most treasured landmarks. Guests can expect enhanced accommodations and resort amenities, including a full-service spa, pool, gym, steakhouse, and not one but two celebrity-backed restaurants: Gordon Ramsay Hell's Kitchen and Wolf by Vanderpump. In late 2024, Hell's Kitchen unveiled an impressive 1,200-bottle wine display, offering an exquisite selection where you and your partner can sip vino and sample some of Gordon Ramsay's famous dishes (don't miss the sticky toffy pudding). The Golden Nugget Lake Tahoe is also undergoing a transformation, with fully renovated rooms slated to open in early 2025, as well as a refresh for the lobby and gaming floor. For those who like to be in the middle of the action, these two casino resorts are the perfect place to call home base for your Tahoe mountain escape, where you will find many ways to pamper and play. The lake's shore is steps away, as is Heavenly's Gondola and ample shops and dining. 

For those seeking a more intimate and boutique experience, Coachman Hotel is an enticing option. Recently expanded, the hotel now features new guest rooms, a spa, a gym, and versatile event spaces. This rustic-meets-chic hotel is known for its stylish design and welcoming staff. The expansion allows the Coachman Hotel to host double the guests, while the addition of indoor and outdoor event spaces provides opportunities to host group gatherings. Their lobby is unique in that it includes a game room complete with a fireplace and a communal kitchen. Their check-in desk doubles as a bar (coffee in the morning and beer and wine in the evening). Not only that, but they have full breakfast and dinner menus. So, if you are looking for somewhere to stay where you can keep your loungewear on and soak in a slow morning before embarking on the day's adventures, check out Coachman Hotel.

Bonus for all three refreshed hotels? Furry family members are welcome, too. The South Shore of Lake Tahoe is a welcoming place where you can be yourself.
