    At Shooting Stars B&B we were welcomed with a sweet smile and a warm friendly host. The room was perfect! Amazingly comfortable bed and sheets, warm fireplace, incredibly relaxing whirlpool tub and a home that says, "Stay, relax, enjoy!!!" So we did!!! ;) The Breakfast was topnotch both in appearance and taste. Thank you Shooting Stars B&B for all you did for us! It goes beyond words can say.

    Very nice & relaxing

    Wow! What a wonderful end to a not-so-great ski day in Tahoe. When we got there Bill and Aimee were hanging up a decoration outside, but he came to our car to greet us and to make us feel welcome. It's so luxurious to have a gas fireplace and heated tiles in the room, and the whirlpool tub is, quite literally, like having a hot tub in the bathroom. The next morning Aimee made us crepes for breakfast (delicious!) and we had a wonderful breakfast chat with the other two guests and Aimee. It was definitely cozy to have such an intimate, home-cooked breakfast. The shared living spaces are well furnished. The sofa overlooking the lake was especially delightful. It's warmed by the sun in the morning and was an indulgent place to crochet from. Aimee was a super gracious host, recommending dining options and helping us with some technical difficulties as we were leaving. I wish we could have stayed longer!

    Outstanding B&B!!

    We recently had a wonderful Tahoe weekend and stayed at the Shooting Star. What a great place. The room we had (Bay Room) was very nice and the whirlpool tub was great! The common rooms are nicely laid out with a view of the lake. Coffee, tea, cider available all day long and we had two wonderful breakfasts. Bill (the owner) was a good resource for information about the area and good places for dinner. All in all it was a relaxing and wonderful weekend. The Shooting Star was a comfort to come back to after a long bike ride or a hike. We would recommend the Shooting Star to those looking for a restful retreat from which to access all the great activities available around Lake Tahoe.
