The Cal-Vada Lodge Hotel, in Crystal Bay, Nevada, at the California-Nevada border at the north end of Lake Tahoe, is a Bungalow/craftsman-style hotel that was built in 1935. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1994. [1]

It was built originally for use by the Cal-Vada Lodge, as a resort and casino. It was deemed significant for National Register listing in 1994 for surviving as one of few 1930s-era Lake Tahoe-area hotels that has been preserved with integrity, and "as an important example of a small hotel designed in the Bungalow/Craftsman style and set in a rustic resort setting."

In the United States, the National Register of Historic Places classifies its listings by various types of architecture. Listed properties often are given one or more of 40 standard architectural style classifications that appear in the National Register Information System (NRIS) database. Other properties are given a custom architectural description with "vernacular" or other qualifiers, and others have no style classification. Many National Register-listed properties do not fit into the several categories listed here, or they fit into more specialized subcategories.

Architects of the United States Forest Service are credited with the design of many buildings and other structures in National Forests. Some of these are listed on the National Register of Historic Places due to the significance of their architecture. A number of these architectural works are attributed to architectural groups within the Forest Service rather than to any individual architect.
