This is a family owned lodge, and yes it feels like home, the owner is always helpful and friendly and run the business with hearts and effort!
Visited there last weekend! During the winter storm, wow it's been a long time since last time I saw this much snow, so fun, but almost got stuck in Tahoe LOL, 50/88/80 were all closed and waited 3 hour to get out.
And yes the experience was exceptional. (isn't S'more in heavy snow exceptional? Dig my car out of snow is so fun)
some fun facts: There was a power outage following the storm, so the coffee machine was not working in that morning, but the owner bought a ton of Starbucks for all the guests.
There was a dog named Leo and my son are missing him so much when back home.
Would definitely recommend it!
