Lodging in the park can be tough as it's limited. That being said, this lodge easily provides the most value and the best star gazing and break away from the tourists. Three amazing meals a day saves a lot of money and time and the meals there were better than any place we ate up and down the sierras. The staff was very pleasant and accommodating. Waking up next to the lake and nature and campfires with smores at night was icing on the cake. Beds were comfortable as well. Highly recommend!

The place was interesting and we enjoyed our stay however it was a bit inconvenient for people our age (late seventies). The room was upstairs and the stairs were many and steep. The staff was very helpful though and they carried our bags up on arrival and down on departure day. The detour to get to the lodge was very long along dirt road. The food was very good and plentiful. In the end we had a good stay but probably will not return.

The 3meals a day included in price was awesome. Plus they had snacks, fruit, drinks available 24 hrs. The place is very run down. Rooms were satisfactory, needs a lot of updating. Main entrance was washed out due to storms in the spring so they had a service road in. It was ok, but they should tell you before booking as part of it was dirt. Could be a very nice place to stay if “ cleaned up” around the property & updated.

We pulled into the property and immediately didn’t like it. It was an old lodge that had seen it’s better days. We were actually ready to leave. We decided to stay and actually loved our stay. Food was delicious and plentiful, the lodge was so much fun. We sat in the large lodge area for most of our nights drinking and making friends with strangers. Definitely took us back to a simpler time. Convenient to both parks.

Somewhat rustic but updated accommodations included dinner and breakfast and outdoor activities with stay. Very relaxing and lovely. Road into the lodge is a service road at this time and that was a little daunting. Wouldn’t have wanted to drive that in the dark. Overall probably the favorite place we stayed for our week long road trip through some national parks. The hot tub was out of commission but pool was open and canoes and paddle boats were also available.

Pretty typical for a family lodge, although this one seems to have a bit more deferred maintenance than other lodges that I've visited. We were only in the park for one night, so the main entrance detour wasn't a huge deal, but if I was there for multiple days, it could be a greater annoyance -- but at close to a million dollars for a new bridge that the park administrator will approve, it may be a while before this is replaced. Some of the guests are not very considerate and would park right around the lodge and block the handicap parking instead of parking down in the lot. Our room had dark colored towels. There's a reason that most places use white towels, because it's hard to tell if a dark colored towel is really clean.. Also, the cleaning solutions left behind a stink in the rooms and in the dining hall. It would be nice if they moved to fragrance free cleaning solutions and let us enjoy the smells of the forest and the food. The staff was great.

This lodge is a hidden gem in an area with very few options for staying. And has a very reasonable price, esp. considering you get three free meal services a day, bevergae service 24/day, a heated pool, and close to all the best the park has to offer. Remember, you are national forest where there are no 4-5 star resorts. For thr location this is 4-5 stars for that area for sure. The owners and staff do a great job of accommodating your needs and you can tell they care about thier guests.
