★☆☆☆☆ 1.0 Sean Sullivan · Feb 2026

Upon entering my room (after a mix up and me waiting an hour for my room) I noticed the floor was wet in front of the fridge. This being a very low budget motel I did not care too much and just put a towel down to soak up the water. Once the towel turned BLACK (mold) I reported it to the front desk. They accused me of causing it and kicked me out. Worst hotel/motel experience you will ever likely experience. Avoid this place.

We stayed in a room across from the beautiful pool with 2 beds.| All around us was stunning natural beauty.|Stayed here because the rest of our party had booked here as it was close to the venue .First off the carpet makes you not want to take a step without shoes on, the beds were made and appeared tidy but I couldn't get over the state of the carpet. The TV's picture was zoomed in and would only display the top 1/4 of any program or video that was playing. The Samsung TV option was scaled correctly however anything playing would only show the extremely zoomed in partial Pic. Even more disappointing, during our entirety of our visit the Internet that the TV was connected to was only showing 3-5 seconds before cutting out/buffering. The free wifi is a complete joke as it is not sufficient

★★★★★ 5.0 Vipul Singh · Oct 2024

Stayed here for a Saturday night in August on my way from Sacramento to Lake Tahoe. Booking was for Mother Lode, but the office was at Gold Trail, and when I got there, the owner moved me to a room at Gold Trail. That was nice too. Room was clean with enough space. No breakfast at the motel, but they did give me a lot of choices of sweet danishes and other packaged pastries. The motel is very easy to get to, right off of the highway.
