Good price/value
The lodge was overall okay. It was clean and had a great backyard space to relax in. There is also a restaurant barracked to the lodge which is convenient and a little postal office/convenience store. The bed was squeaky, the sound of the freeway was noticeable, and there was no AC (just fans) but good price/value.
Room was just what we needed, check in was quick and simple, everyone we encountered was super friendly and helpful, food at the rustic table was pretty good. The only thing was the no air conditioning, it was warm even at night and didn’t really cool off until about midnight or 1am. Will definitely be back but when it’s cooler 😜
Had a nice stay here over the weekend! The staff is very friendly and quickly accommodating to any needs. The lodge is tucked away in a quiet, but not too secluded spot, so it’s very easy to find, yet is in a safe area & away from any busy traffic. The highway is just up the road, but the road noise gets muffled a bit by the forest between - very nice! I’ll stay here again for sure if I’m in the area.
Expedia got 4/30/25 reservation wrong/ FAILED TO LIST MY TWO SMALL DOGS. Hotel staff were able to fix my need & put me in pet friendly room, thankfully since th e y had no vacancies yesterday! Pet area badly represented by add..down a very steep flight of stairs or by side of building down inclined slippery slope. Both dangerous at night for my 71 yr old self & my small dogs. Nice area when you finally reach area. Window by bed was open & i couldnt get it closed. Stuffed a pillow in it due to temp drop overnight. Couldnt find any way to turn on heat.
Convenient and cute lodge with restaurant attached
We've stayed here a few times and it's a cute lodge and convenient for our trip. Nothing special and low frills. The past 2 times we stayed, we were in a different room. This time the room was definitely older and needed repair. The ceiling fan had layers of dust on it and the paint and sheetrock was bubbled and needed painting badly.

Check in was a breeze. The gentleman at the front counter was friendly and professional, and was ready for us when we walked in the door. Could not have been easier or more efficient.
This lodge is close to the freeway, so you hear the trucks. and it is noisy. Running a fan and white noise on my phone helped. No air conditioner. The restaurant was great. Good food and service. The coffee bar was also excellent. The bed was not as firm as I would have liked, but we slept well. The shower was large and better than most. Very friendly staff!
I love coming to Sierra Woods Lodge! I have been coming here for a year now for business! I love the people. They treat me like family. The Restaurant is fantastic! The rooms are comfortable, the showers are large. I really enjoy staying there.
The office was closed early so we had to wait to check in for our reservation. It was an acceptable place to sleep. The room is tiny and cramped. The sink drain was clogged and there was no way to get help. That’s not acceptable because it was hard to use. The room was lacking some of the usual things that we normally expect like hair dryer, iron, coffee maker, refrigerator.
The attached restaurant closed earlier than the posted hour so we couldn’t get anything to eat.
