Wonderful place!
Wonderful place! We went during Thanksgiving period. It was amazing experience! Totally love it. Beautiful cabin surrounded by snow all around. Enjoyed snow walking at the property. Roughly 30 minutes away from South lake Tahoe. It was our first experience in cabin and it was totally worth it. Very friendly staff. Highly recommend this place.

Great location. The restaurant is terrible but the room have full kitchen hence better to prepare yourself. And it’s cold at night, probably because we never used such furnace before

It was nice enough and what we expected with one MAJOR issue. The bed was basically a futon cushion on a low wood platform. My wife and I did not sleep well at all. The pillows were awful. If you are expecting camping conditions then it would work for you. The bed was not acceptable for the hotel price I paid.

Rustic Luxury
This hotel consists of rustic cabins with a restaurant. My cabin could not have been more comfortable and cozy. With a king size bed, gas fireplace, full kitchen and nice bathroom, it felt very luxurious. It would have been nice to have a microwave and the bathroom sink was really small. I also had to learn how to use a French press and couldn’t use the coffee I brought, but the little inconveniences were minor. I would gladly stay here again.

I’ll be back
Loved this beautiful place. The area is gorgeous and although by a road you cannot hear the traffic. The cabins are so cute and clean. They provide wood for the fireplace on the property. We went for the summer so did not use the wood stove in the cabin. The restaurant has good food and drinks! Also loved the services they provided. Very friendly

The cabin was nice and cozy. A little tight for a week of stay. Kitchen was functional and had basic amenities. The road noise is quite loud all day and starts to quite down at maybe 8pm to 6am. Had dinner at Sorensens orderedd the beef stew which was only had 4 pieces of beef. A bit disappointing. They also had some construction which started at around 10am. More noise. Nice ambiance but overall disappointed. Will not be coming back.

Time to relax
When I booked this room at last minute I didn’t realize it didn’t have a tv or a fridge/microwave. Although not a huge problem. Wi-fi worked well in my room. I was checked by Grace she was so nice and helpful especially since I arrived late. I was greeted with a glass of wine and since I wasn’t drinking I was given other options and chose the apple juice. There was a complementary bottle of wine in the room. A nice coffee pot with great coffee. I loved the tub it has been awhile for a nice soak. Has thick and fluffy towels. Although the bed was closer to the floor than I like (cause I’m old and trouble getting up) it was very comfortable. Bedside table had a phone / watch charger which worked great. My room was next to the sauna which I didn’t use cause it was already in use by others. They do have wagons to take your items to your room so you don’t have to carry them. I did see some people working on other rooms so I can’t wait go back!!

We arrived about 2 hours early. There was no parking but one of the staff members gave us his parking spot, which was really nice. At check in, Tres was really nice and quick. The complimentary drinks upon arrival were a nice surprise. The Chapel cabin was perfect for the 2 of us. It was clean, cozy, and had amazing views. It was the perfect little getaway in September. We will definitely be coming again.
