Best Get-away for a single woman (me) or a family
Sierra Woods Lodge is not just a lovely, forested place to dine and spend the night in a comfy, clean room, it is also a non-profit for a very, very good cause. I didn't know that when I booked my stay, but now I do know, I'll be even more inclined to come back. The food at the "Rustic Cafe" was so, so good. The grounds were lovely, lots of places to sit and view nature. My room was scrupulously clean. The staff was so kind, thoughtful, funny, friendly.

The staff was beyond helpful! They super accommodating when I made a mistake with my booking dates, helped us with late check in, and helped us print some documents we needed for our vacation. It was so easy to get to the hotel and the bed was incredible comfortable. There’s a cute little cafe attached to the hotel and the free coffee for hotel guests was a nice touch!

Was looking for an overnight, very basic, no frills, clean room to sleep and they delivered. It was nothing more and nothing less than that. Perfect for what I was looking for.

10/10 customer service and accommodating af
We stayed here for my husbands work trip and brought both our kids, this lodge has a beautiful backyard area and view, and this place is also attached to a restaurant serving homemade and delicious food. The bedding and pillows are so comfortable, and the shower was nice! Some of the smaller rooms don’t have a fridge and that was my only complaint. Above all the employees here are so kind and accommodating! As we were on my husbands work trip he needed his work clothes washed, although they don’t have a laundry service the gentleman there were willing to help me out so I didn’t have to take my kids with me and drive 40 minutes one way to a laundromat! Seriously a lifesaver. I absolutely would rec this lodge for anyone passing through town and even for a week long trip as long as you don’t require your own kitchen.

My second stay
My room was very nice. The people are friendly and respectful. It was very hot outside and the rooms aren’t air conditioned, but they called me in advance and offered me a full refund if I wanted to cancel. I didn’t cancel and they provided me with a second fan and I was comfortable. I would stay here again.

PRO: Smooth check-in, parking directly in front of room, restaurant is close to room, wifi actually works. The area behind the lodge has a nice view of the mountains. Food took a long time, but was delicious. Shower was nice and big. Bed had a nice, thick blanket. CON: I was in room #1, which shares a wall with the kitchen. The restaurant closes at 9pm, but I got to listen to pots and pans banging and things being slammed against the wall until about 11pm. When the staff finally finished cleaning up the kitchen, I thought I’d have some peace. Unfortunately, they decided to stand around for another 90 minutes, talking loudly right outside my room. In addition, there is no AC in the room, no fridge, no microwave, no ice bucket (because there is no ice) and no vending machines in the premises. The room had this larger than necessary closet area that was totally empty and going to waste. It didn’t even have sockets to plug anything in. Looked like maybe they were in the process of upgrading things.

Coming from Kansas, it's a nice sight to be in the mountains. I also had a very long trailer of course. They were very kind about helping me out and parking it to not be too in their way. Staff in general was overall very nice and polite. The showers are one of the most beautiful and genuinely relaxing things I have ever experienced. The last simple thing I ever thought I would receive peace from way over delivered. Especially after driving 12 hours. I had the rest of my 32 hour journey to go, but that one shower genuinely made my whole trip so much better. It was basically a massive floor of polished rocks and sheets of rock on the wall, but it was just so peaceful for once. I would love to put one in my house when I build one finally. The beds were extremely nice and comfortable. While the rooms were small, it was very pleasant. The scenery out back was very very nice as well and refreshing. This lodge really earns the name of lodge. I wish every state had a similar lodge, but I guess it wouldn't be unique then. The food was also pretty good. Highly recommended. I never felt so willing to write a review about a hotel or place to sleep for the night, if that tells you how amazing this place was. If I ever end up back in California, I will absolutely be making a diversion to end back up at this lodge.
