Sierra Woods Lodge

Sierra Woods Lodge

10/10 Excellent
"What a sweet place and a far cry from cookie-cutter low end motels. Beautiful location, nice rooms, and a very nice restaurant on premises. The motel is a project of a recovery program called Teen Challenge so it's a bonus to support them but the motel stands on its own as a 'find' off Highway 80. Highly recommended"

Lakefront Cabin with private pier on Donner Lake

Lakefront Cabin with private pier on Donner Lake

10/10 Excellent
"A warm home with an incredible view. We felt like we were at summer camp and were sad to have our stay end. Beds are super comfortable, kitchen well appointed, and the dock and decks are perfect for relaxing. Would definitely stay again. One caveat, stairs down to the house are a workout, pack accordingly. Thank you, this place was just what we needed."
