Super close to the Gondola, room super clean, staff amazing and super friendly. During peak times, it can be overly expensive for what one gets, but that's true for all of South Lake Tahoe.

Great beautiful friendly destination.

3/5 - Okay

Verified traveler

Skiing is great but the resort is very subpar for a Vail partner resort. Hopefully things will get better because Kirkwood has enormous potential but ultimately the facilities and atmosphere are a huge let down.

4/5 - Good

A very enjoyable location.
