A gem, and a good value for a short stay. Plenty of shopping and eating excursions within a short driving distance. Very quiet location away from the hub-bub and noise of the CA/Nevada border. The facilities were very clean and the staff was attentive, responsive and generous.

Location is great, right next to hwy-50. I was initially concerned about traffic noise, to my surprise i didn't hear much noise. Before we came i was also worried about late check-in. I called frontdest ahead of time, we checked-in around 10:30pm had no problem.

My stay was good. The hotel met my needs of a place to shower and sleep. It great that its right off the main road and that there are plenty of places to eat and shop nearby. The staff was great and the hotel is economical. The only issues i had were that one of the window curtains had what looked to be a red dried mucus and the bathroom had 2 or 3 stains/smears on the door of a bug being smashed and not wiped off. Also my phone reception (A Tea and Tea) did not work inside the room. I had to go across the parking lot, where the grass area is at to get service. But other than that, my stay was good.

We checked in and stayed in our room for just a few hours and ended up leaving the same night and checking into another hotel. The beds were the absolute worst, squeaky springs and rock hard beds with awful pillows. The a/c was not working properly and we could not cool the room off. Drove down the mountain from Tahoe to Minden and stayed there. The rooms were fairly updated and the surrounding were quite beautiful but would never stay here again.

A very nice stay!
High Country Lodge was a wonderful pivot from our horrible earlier experience at the Emerald Bay Lodge. The room was perfect for our needs. Traveling with my 5yr old granddaughter and son the King/double bed combo worked for us. We really enjoyed our stay.

Expensive for the quality of stay ($200/night). Dusty curtains and carpet, torn insect screen, broken coffee machine, paid for three people but only one coffee pouch was left… The place generally looked run down. Friendly staff though.

I did not stay here. I would like my money back. I work nights and was attempting to stay here but they would not have a room available till 4 pm which does me no good. I would only be in the room for a short time. So I understand their situation but If I only sleeping in there for 1.5 hours it does not help me.

We really liked the property overall. The rooms were a bit dated in a couple of things, but in general was surprisingly nice. The front desk manager was super friendly, and even brought Ice directly to us since the machine was down. He made us feel warm and welcome to the property, and we could tell took pride in what he did. If you're looking for a nice, pleasant place to stay (in walking distance of a few nice restaurants) , this may be the place for you.

Great value
I booked this place at the last minute due to road closures on my original planned route. Great price, hassle-free check-in and an immaculate, comfy and up to date room, recently renovated I'd say.
