8/10 Good
"We love Camp Richardson! It's a no frills place that is safe and clean. Easy access to the beach, excellent breakfast at the general store, nice little ice cream shop with huge portions across the road. The only downfall there is no air conditioning. The week we stayed in Tahoe, it was very warm. Even with all of the windows open and three fans running, it was uncomfortable, especially while trying to sleep. Our room was typically 80-84 degrees despite our efforts to cool the room down. Any other time of year, this probably wouldn't have been an issue."
