Len, thanks so much for leaving such a kind review! We're thrilled to have provided you an exceptional experience so far and we hope to continue to do so!
Advertise a fireplace but when I got there there, I was told it was shut off for the summer. Even though the day I arrived, it was 55ยฐ. Disappointed to say the least as I was looking forward to that. The location is great.

Traci, thank you for taking the time to leave a review. We sincerely apologize for any confusion regarding our fireplace, we typically only have it operational during the cooler months. We appreciate your feedback and hope you enjoyed the rest of your stay with us. We hope to welcome you back to Red Wolf Lodge at Olympic Valley soon!
Other than the power going out for 5 hours on Sunday night and getting eaten alive by mosquitos (not the resortโs fault, of course), we have really enjoyed our stay so far. The staff is very nice and accommodating and the rooms are very comfortable and quiet. We do wish there was a pool to enjoy while on the property though. But not a deal breaker with the lake close by and the 3 hot tubs.

Thank you Tim for the wonderful review! We're happy you enjoyed your stay with us and enjoyed the daily activities we offer for our guests. We hope to welcome you back to Red Wolf Lodge at Olympic Valley soon!
Great cozy lodge nested in the base of the mountains at Palisades Village - close to hiking, skiing, restaurants and Tahoe City - with an accommodating staff. The room had a complete kitchen, great shower and even a fireplace! Having a locker on each floor for skis and a washer/dryer was an added plus!

Jeanne, thank you so much for leaving a review! We are thrilled to hear you enjoyed our spacious accommodations and robust amenities. We hope to welcome you back this Winter to make full use of the ski lockers and our ski-in/ski-out location!
๐๐จ๐ฎ๐ฅ๐ ๐ฐ๐ ๐ฌ๐ญ๐๐ฒ ๐๐ ๐๐ข๐ง? Yes! Personally, if you stay here, we suggest staying in an 'odd' numbered room or specifically request a room that overlooks the 'Red Dog' ski run. We loved it because it not only over looked the ski run, but we got to watch the snowcats running up & down the mountainside. Don't worry, the view from the 'even' numbered rooms, are just as beautiful, with the view of half mountain & half parking area. This resort absolutely lives up to its name by the simple fact that it is decked out to what you would expect a log cabin or mountain lodge to look like! Also, it is considered a 'ski in- ski out' lodge as well... which essentially it sits directly on the Red Dog chairlift and at the base of PalisadesTahoe! We were pleasantly pleased & surprised at the amount of amenities that were included with our stay. And with saying that, here is what you can expect ๐๐ก๐๐ญ ๐ญ๐จ ๐๐ฑ๐ฉ๐๐๐ญ: ๐ธ๏ธFree covered, self parking (1 car/unit)- parking is actually located below the building, which is technically considered the 'ground' floor & they will give you a parking pass to keep in your windshield so you don't get towed. It is a pretty tight squeeze, and we noticed it tends to be busiest on Friday - Sundays. ๐น๏ธ$30 nightly resort fee ๐ธ๏ธService animals only allowed ๐น๏ธIn the lobby, you will find an espresso machine (coffee & tea for free) ๐ธ๏ธAll rooms are non smoking ๐น๏ธOnsite club house (located on 1st floor & must have room key to access) which incuded a fully stocked kitchen & living area with a fireplace. You will also find a sauna, and a foosball table, along with a tredmilll, a sitting bike & an elyptical, plus a woman's & mens bathroom with a shower and restroom. They also had a filtered water dispenser as well. ๐ธ๏ธ Sitting on the deck (outside of the clubhouse) you will find 3 hot tubs, a BBQ & a fire pit. This is also where you will have direct access to the Red Dog chairlift (ski in - ski out) ๐น๏ธIn-room: full kitchen with all kitchen utensils needed to cook & clean (plates, bowls, cups, pots, pans, utensils, papertowels ect), iron, iron board, hairdryer, coffee maker, full size fridge, oven & microwave, along with shampoo & conditioner secured to shower wall. Also a queen sized hide-a-bed in the couch, along with a 4 person dining table, & an electric fire right next to the slinding glass door & balcony area (so cozy!) ๐ธ๏ธ Washer and dryer onsite (FREE) along with the ability to purchase laundry detergent (need quarters to purchase laundry detergent out of the small vending machine). ๐๐๐ซ๐ ๐๐ซ๐ ๐ ๐๐๐ฐ ๐ข๐ญ๐๐ฆ๐ฌ ๐ฐ๐ ๐ญ๐ก๐ข๐ง๐ค ๐ฒ๐จ๐ฎ ๐ฐ๐จ๐ฎ๐ฅ๐ ๐๐ฉ๐ฉ๐ซ๐๐๐ข๐๐ญ๐ ๐ฅ๐๐๐ซ๐ง๐ข๐ง๐ ๐๐๐จ๐ฎ๐ญ: ๐น๏ธIf you are making reservations, make sure it says "๐๐๐ ๐๐ค๐ก๐ ๐๐ค๐๐๐ ๐๐ฃ ๐๐ก๐ฎ๐ข๐ฅ๐๐ ๐๐๐ก๐ก๐๐ฎ"! Don't do what we did and accidentally extend your trip & accidentally book their sister hotel - Red Wolf Lakeside Lodge. No big deal, but it actually sits on Lake Tahoe & is about 30 minutes from the mountain. Beautiful drive & great little individual cabins (we will be doing a review on this location as well), but if you are strictly trying to be AT the mountain, it's not near as convenient location wise. ๐น๏ธThe lobby is only open between 9am - 5:30pm, and if you have to check-in after hours, BE SURE TO CALL THE OFFICE before you arrive & let them know what time you are arriving. They have a lockbox outside of the lobby door and will send you instructions on how to gain access to the box, in order to get your room key. ๐น๏ธAs of now (for winter season), they are giving a discount to purchasing lift tickets via the qr code they supply in the lobby (this can change at any moment). Essentially, you will have to purchase the lift tickets the day before you ski, via the qr code to get the discount. We HIGHLY recommend purchasing the Ikon Pass (pre season) if you know you will be sking/boarding 3 or more days. Lift ticket prices are absolutely insane, and trust us...if you're skiing more than 3 days, buy the annual pass!
