10/10 Excellent

It’s a perfect stop on the way to the mountains. Very home like & comfortable. Laid back & clean!
Paige, 1-night trip

10/10 Excellent

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.

Best Stay in Emigrant Gap Ca

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.
Albert, 1-night trip

10/10 Excellent

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!

Great choice to be striking distance to Truckee and Tahoe without the congestion.
Mark, 1-night trip

10/10 Excellent

The only thing I would suggest would be clear signage for the office for check-in but otherwise, it was a great place to stay for the price. It was clean, plenty of towels, and the staff was friendly. And my kids got to play in the snow right outside our room. Hope to return in the summer to enjoy the firepit and outdoor areas. The restaurant was also super convenient.

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.

Amit, 2-night trip

8/10 Good

perfect for a quick winter getaway, just 12 miles down the mtns from Royal gorge xc. Simple, quiet, clean, warm room. decent snow in the vicinity too, if only there was access for snowshoeing etc. very good american food at the on site restaurant, The Rustic Table - helping breakfasts too. No liquor but good coffee.
Kyle, 1-night trip

8/10 Good

Perfectly nice for what it is

I needed a place to crash after a ski day. This is essentially a motel. It's not at all fancy but the beds are clean and comfortable, the small shower was hot and had good pressure and the attached restaurant makes a very good burger and milkshake (and breakfast). One warning - no liquor license. If you are looking for a quaint mountain retreat this is not the place. If you are looking for a comfortable base while skiing or exploring this places is solid.
