Room was clean and comfortable. Staff were very courteous and helpful. Food was quite good. Everything met or exceeded expectations. Overall, it was a great stay. We'll definitely be coming back.

Very friendly host who made us feel comfortable and welcomed. Answered all our questions and let us check in early. Also many amenities in case we needed anything to snack on or if we forgot to bring something

Had a great time staying at Sierra Inn during a fishing trip. The rooms are renovated and everything was clean and working well. It's been very quiet and peaceful during the night and you can hear the river flowing outside. Behind the motel there's a beautiful patio area with grill and picnic tables right by the river which we gladly used during our stay. Would stay here next time I'm around the area.

Great property and staff is very communicative! Easy to check-in/check-out. We were late to check in and had an issue with the lock accessing our keys. We could reach out to them easily, and staff was there to help in 5-7mins. 10/10 recommend if you're looking for a group stay.

Nice Rooms, clean and neat. Beds are soft and comfy. Everything you need is there, including coffee for in the morning! A must for some. Staff is very friendly and helpful. Always watching out for your best interest. It is also very quiet and have had no problems with other guests making noise or being loud. Hotel is in walking distance to restaurants and shopping. Also close to skiing and winter fun. Sonora, Columbia State Park and Jamestown are just down the road. Plenty to see and do in...

Arline and Rich had thought of every little detail--a snack bar, snuggly socks, recommendations on best restaurants and things to do. Rich showed us his car collection. Grounds are beautiful. It's smack in the middle of town. Full breakfast upon awaking in the morning, coffee in the room as well as bottled water, and so much more. Hosts were there if you needed them, but very quiet and not at all "hovering" over us. A grand experience.

This little cabin was perfect! You can see the main house from the driveway and front door, but with the direction of the home and an umbrella, you feel like you're all by yourself in the woods. There are some pups, but they were well behaved and didn't come around often. This is a great little cabināperfect for a 2 person get-awayāwith all the amenities you will need. There was a coffee maker and tea, grill on the patio, and we were able to cook breakfast and dinner each day of our stay with...

Cozy and beautiful cabin. You will really need to have a suv or any high clearance car to park in the driveway due to the steepiness of the driveway(included in the instructions.)
No air conditioning except for masters bedroom. Might be better to have portable AC in all rooms during summer. Most of of us, unable to sleep because it was hot when we went. 90s weather.
Fans are provided if needed otherwise ceiling fans are installed.
Nice to have private hot tub and private pool, sauna and...
