Very quiet neighborhood with a beautiful backdrop of the mountain. It has a large back area where little kids can run around.
Rooms are clean and quiet, beds are comfy, shower is hot. The staff is super friendly. It isn’t the Riz but a solid, affordable option for a skiing weekend in Sugarbowl, about 20 min away.
We had a wonderful stay at the Sierra Woods Lodge. The place was clean, peaceful, and very comfortable. The staff were friendly and accommodating, and the location was perfect close to nature but still accessible. Highly recommend for families and couples looking for quiet getaway. Special mention to The Rustic Table Restaurant. They serve tasty food at reasonable price.

The room was clean, the bed was comfortable, and it was nice and warm, so we had a very comfortable stay. The attached restaurant was also quite good and the food was delicious. The only downsides were that the smell of the cleaning products in the bathroom was quite strong and the ventilation fan was very loud, but overall we had a good experience.
Great place, nice restaurant attached to hotel. Very peaceful and serene place. Very nice place to stay for a night or two, really good place.

The cleaning chemical smell in the room was extreme. Sometimes it's bad in a room, but this was just unbelievable. We booked another place for our second night and just bailed. My clothes still smell of it.
