Forest Suites Resort at the Heavenly Village, South Lake Tahoe

This is our new spot...

Liked: We loved the cozy feel of the suite and the facilities as a whole. The suite looked newly renovated, it was very comfortable. The lobby had a genuine ski resort feel. I felt relaxed and happy to be at our weekend resort. The staff was wonderful. The guests were all friendly and the breakfast was great. We didn't have a chance to spend time in the game room, but we will in future visits, it looks like a fun place to hang out in between hours. We look forward to staying here in the future.
Disliked: I can't think of anything negative.

Our stay was fun and...

Liked: We love the Forest Suites Resort. This was our 3rd stay and as always it checks all of the boxes - location, hospitality, and an awesome breakfast. We finally got to the hot tub which helped ease the pain of learning how to ski that day. The pool slippers came in very useful - we still use them at home.
Disliked: I don't have any complaints for our stay.

Good

Pleasant

Liked: The stay was good and the location is awesome.
Disliked: The individual(older male, long hair) at the check-in counter engaged in a subtle form of racism through microaggressions. I told the man that I had completed the check in formalities online while taking out my ID card and that when he asked me where I was from. I told him I live in San Fransisco. To that he said "where are you really from ?" And when I said India he said the following things:"Oh I figured you were from India !""Indians always keep their IDs close to their chest ! Why is that ? Is it a thing in India ?""Don't people in India ask you for ID card when you check in somewhere ?"I know the difference between being inquisitive and microaggressions and this definitely was a microaggression. All I was trying to tell him that I have completed the check in formalities online as well. I know I need to present my ID card at the hotel, why would he assume that I would not want to show it.I was really thrown by this experience and was by far the worst check in experience. It was not a great experience when after I drove 4 hours in the evening to get to Tahoe to have a nice weekend with my family.

Very good

Excellent property, service, and location.

Liked: The room was amazing, I had a two bedroom two bath suite, with a full kitchen. It was all updated and spotless. The hot tubs were open, warm, and clean, and one of the two pools was already open, heated to 80 degrees, in April. The staff was beyond nice and very helpful. The location is great, very close to the heavenly gondola and the casinos. Plus the property is right next to Van Sickle bi-state park with hiking trails.
Disliked: The breakfast was great and was available later than most breakfasts offered at hotels. My only complaint was the hash browns were only so-so, haha. In other words, no complaints at all.
