Bottom Line
Deerfield Lodge at Heavenly is a mid-range property located in South Tahoe, a 10-minute walk from the famous lake. The convenient setting is also walking distance from restaurants, ski rentals, and Heavenly Ski Resort. Most guests stay here because of the 22 contemporary rooms and suites with kitchenettes and fireplaces. Some suites have two-person jetted tubs and master bedrooms with fireplaces. The quiet property has few on-site features, there's no restaurant or whirlpool. However, continental breakfast is served and there is an outdoor barbecue area and a nice living room-style lobby with a huge stone fireplace. The Lodge appeals to outdoorsy families and couples (and their pets) that plan to be out skiing and exploring all day. As an alternative, Marriott’s Timber Lodge has a restaurant and huge outdoor pool, only slightly higher rates.

Elegant lodge with friendly atmosphere
The Deerfield Lodge burned down in 2014 and was completely rebuilt 18 months later. The new property feels fresh and modern, like staying at a friend’s elegant vacation house. Decor features dark leather, natural and cherry woods, and stone floors and fireplaces. In the living room-style lobby, skis lean against a wall and a candy jar sits on the coffee table. Fresh pine-scented air wafts through the interiors and birds can be heard as well. Nature is central to the design. An outdoor courtyard area feels like a huge garden with tall pine trees. Low stone walls lead around the grounds and there are cushioned wicker benches. Staff are known for being extra friendly. Case in point: cookies are served in the afternoon.
