Top Balancing Rock Hotel Reviews
Murphys Suites
10/10 Excellent
"Just wish the pool and sauna and fitness room were open before 9 AM"
Desolation Hotel Hope Valley
8/10 Good
"Isolated location but convenient for hiking, fishing, etc. Cottages are well constructed and comfortable. Try to get one a bit away from the restaurant. Good choice for younger travelers looking to enjoy the outdoors; not so much for older people with any mobility issues."
Mi Wuk Village Inn
10/10 Excellent
"A great alternative to trailers, camping, or the high prices at Pinecrest."
Winterfell - No Hidden Fee; Dog OK; King Bed
10/10 Excellent
"Lovely place, great hosts! I'll be planning some more trips to the area and will happily here. "
Strawberry Inn
10/10 Excellent
"Love this place!!! The rooms were very clean and had a beach view of the river. The food is great. If you run into Paul, say Hi from us. He was the star of the show and made sure every step of our trip was great. Traveling with a 2 year old is a blast but also a lot of work. Come here, eat the food and visit Pinecrest. It will take you back in time to small town summer vibes."
Timberline Lodge - Arnold - Bear Valley
10/10 Excellent
"We stayed for a few days and a family of five it accommodated all of us with beds and space. It was a wonderful stay,the staff was helpful to let us know places and things to do as well as getting extra towels or anything. The area is beautiful too! Definitely a must stay spot if you need a place to stay in the area! Oh and the fact it’s 5 mins from the Calaveras redwoods was awesome!"
Arnold Meadowmont Lodge
10/10 Excellent
"We only stayed one night but I would highly recommend this lodge. The staff was very helpful, the location was perfect and the room was great. Five stars for sure!"
Kirkwood Mountain Resort by Vail Resorts
10/10 Excellent
"Great place to get away in the Summer. It’s a place for hiking and reading. And a great restaurants near the Lake. Not a big party place, but deeply reflective. Take a date!"
Creekside Lodge
8/10 Good
"The Creekside Inn is basic, but in Alpine County, if that's where you want to be (and it offers incredible outdoor opportunities and natural beauty year-round!), basic is pretty good. It's quiet, and not at all as pricey as most of the alternatives (of which there are very few). Fabulous restaurant, Stonefly, across the street, is open for dinner Th-Sun. We haven't tried the hotel next door as an alternative for dinner M-W, but that's basically your only option. For decent coffee, there is Mad Dog Cafe in Woodford's, though it doesn't open till 9 a.m. We arrived about 5 p.m. and the room was quite warm. It does cool off at night, but be aware there is no air-conditioning (though we know from past experience, that the heat does work in the winter! Comfortable beds, clean bathroom, one sitting chair, and a TV -- do you need more?"
