“Stunning Property, Inconsistent Service; Worth the Splurge for the Right Travelers”

This was our second stay at Edgewood and we came back for a reason. The property is simply one of the most beautiful resort settings you will find anywhere. Sitting right on Lake Tahoe with manicured grounds, a gorgeous pool and hot tub, beach chairs with beverage service, a grassy lakeside field with morning yoga and lawn games, and mountain views that don't quit, the place is visually stunning from every angle. Our first visit we stayed in a Tahoe King overlooking the mountains and valet area. This time we upgraded to the Tahoe King Lakefront and both rooms delivered. Well appointed, beautifully finished, spotlessly clean with daily housekeeping, and so well insulated you would never know you had neighbors. The showers deserve their own shoutout: spacious, great pressure, the kind you don't want to leave. Dining is a genuine highlight. The Edge restaurant is fine dining done right. Ask for Tyler, who is among the best servers either of us has encountered anywhere. The crudo was a standout dish. The Bistro covers breakfast, lunch, and dinner and doesn't disappoint at any daypart. We also did in-room dining one evening and it held up. The little touches matter here too. A nightly s'mores station, live music on our last evening that really elevated the ambiance, beach and pool beverage service, and boat, paddleboard, and kayak rentals if you want to get out on the water. A few things worth knowing before you book. The beds are not up to the standard the rest of the property sets, a real miss at this price point. There is a refrigerator in the room but no minibar, which feels like an oversight for a resort of this caliber. The $50 per night parking fee is lame given what rooms cost here and should simply be included. Outside of the restaurant staff, who are uniformly excellent, service across the property is inconsistent. Valet, front desk, and pool attendants could all use more training, more enthusiasm, or a little bit of both. It stands out because the rest of the experience is so polished. This resort is genuinely ideal for golfers. We overheard rave reviews about the course all week. It is also wonderful for families with kids who will have an absolute blast at the pool and on the lake. Couples traveling without children should know the pool scene is very family forward. An adults only pool option would go a long way. On price, we could have spent a week at a five star resort in Mexico for what four nights here costs. It is expensive by any measure. But the property is special enough that we keep coming back, and we will likely be back again. 4 out of 5 stars. Beautiful, memorable, imperfect and worth it.

“Beautiful property - avoid the food”

Beautiful property. Very mediocre expensive food and staff not helpful and sometimes rude. We loved Tahoe and would actually stay at the resort again but would not eat there and would not bother asking for concierge help. As an aside I have never written a review on Trip advisor but this experience… more

Beautiful property. Very mediocre expensive food and staff not helpful and sometimes rude.

As an aside I have never written a review on Trip advisor but this experience really needs to be addressed.
