10/10 Excellent

"Beautiful scenery"

High Sierra Condominium

8/10 Good

"The facility is dated and in need of repair. The surrounding area is littered with trash and discarded building materials. The views were mostly nice however we recommend checking with the property manager regarding room location. A lot of kids being loud staying in the room directly below. Not the most relaxing get away we had hoped for."
