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.

"LI had a fantastic stay at. The first thing you notice is how impeccably clean everything is. It really sets the tone for a comfortable visit. The location right on the river is breathtaking. It’s tucked away among the pine trees, making for a very quiet and picturesque atmosphere. The rooms feel fresh and recently renovated. A huge shoutout to the staff, who were incredibly friendly and accommodating. If you’re looking for a serene, well-managed getaway with beautiful views, I highly recommend this spot.

I ski bike and this location is perfect for Sierra at Tahoe, a quick 20 minute drive with no snow on the roads. The facilities are older but recently renovated. The staff is awesome and I really like supporting a local business owner over a big name motel. I have been using the Sierra Inn for the last 6+ years with no plans on staying elsewhere.
