Set in a forested area across the street from Lake Tahoe, the 31-unit Cedar Glen Lodge is a throwback to a simpler time with its motor-lodge design, woodsy cabins, and 1930s-era vintage. Accommodations are split between cabins and lodge rooms, all with cable flat-screen TVs, coffeemakers, and free Wi-Fi; cabins have full kitchens, and some have fireplaces and massage tubs. Friendly owners, lake access, a heated outdoor pool with a whirlpool and sauna, charming lodge-style rooms, and free continental breakfast all make the Cedar Glen a great value. The nearby Franciscan Lakeside Lodge offers cottages right on Lake Tahoe, but that property lacks Cedar Glen's hot tub and sauna -- nice touches in the winter.

Located on the shores of Lake Tahoe, the mid-range Franciscan Lakeside Lodge features cozy cottages and rooms in a woodsy, lakefront setting. While some rooms are tucked across the street from the lake in a darker, tree-covered area, the lakefront cottages have excellent views and open to the sandy beach and a private pier where guests can swim and play in privacy. Kitchenettes make dining in (and saving money) easy. And the heated outdoor pool (open seasonally) is said to be the largest in North Lake Tahoe. The downfall? There's no Jacuzzi -- the nearby Cedar Glen Lodge offers one at the same price point.
