The room was clean and updated. The supplied chairs and fire rings down by the river is an added bonus. A hidden gem, we would definitely stay again if passing through and very affordable.

Beautiful scenery. Outside and inside the room was clean. The only thing bad was the mattress was too soft. Back hurt the next day.

Good room size, relatively clean. Setting on the river is amazing. Mattresses are past end of life. I slept okay as they're foam topped but due to sag in middle my daughter elected for the floor so we wouldn't end up on top of each other. I'd stay again, but if 3 in party plan on snuggling or floor sleeping 1.

Beautiful room right on the river. Slept with the window open and enjoyed the sounds of the river. Basic room - Very clean, modern room. Will definitely return, especially in the winter when it snows. If you come in the summer, bring an inner tube to cruise down the lake. Highly recommend for a basic, inexpensive alternative to South Lake, which is only 30 min away.

Cute inn next to the river with campfire and BBQ pits for guests to use. Great location for access to Sierra-at-Tahoe. The only downside is the noise from upstairs if you happen to get a room on the first floor.
