The Alder Inn - A family-run 3-star inn with cozy rooms, outdoor recreation, and proximity to Lake Tahoe attractions
The Alder Inn, a 24-room family-run property, sits among towering pines and offers clean, comfortable accommodations with amenities like microwaves, mini-fridges, and Keurig coffee brewers. Each room is individually decorated, featuring plush robes, Bath and Body Works bath products, and wine glasses. The outdoor recreation area includes a horseshoe pit, bocce ball and basketball courts, and a picnic area with grills. Located on Ski Run Boulevard, the inn is a five-minute walk from the lake and marina, where boat and jet ski rentals are available in summer.
