The Lodge at Blue Lakes

Managers children kept coming in room as we 4 seniors were celebrating Christmas to take away plates of food, manager charged us extra money for no reason after we left on our card and won't answer emails or phone, plus we're charged for 2 rooms we only reserve 1

I ordered room online 135 a night,for 2 nights but they charged me 4 nights I asked to stay a extra night and they charged 400 for that night so total for 3 nights was like 1200, they won't return money, the managers grandchildren come into our family Christmas party and eat lots of food and grabbed bottle water and whole bag of our Christmas chocolates, ive stayed there off n on for over 50 years and never had such a bad Christmas because of their shenanigans

We stayed at The Lodge at Blue Lakes from September 25–28, 2025, renting the Executive Suite with high expectations. The suite included a full kitchen, living room, dining room, and a bedroom with an ensuite jacuzzi tub. While the space itself was roomy and the setting picturesque, our experience was far from what you’d expect at this price point. On Day 2, the kitchen sink sprang a leak, causing water to pool beneath the sink. When we reported the issue, the onsite manager's only solution was to hand us two towels and suggest we use a plastic salad bowl to catch the leaking water. There was no offer to repair the problem, and no attempt to compensate us for the inconvenience. Even more alarming, there was a surge protector sitting in the pooling water under the sink—a serious electrical hazard that we had to manage ourselves. This posed a real danger, especially in a space meant for guests, and should have been addressed immediately by staff or maintenance. To add to our disappointment, the jacuzzi tub was unusable due to mold in the jets and hair visibly stuck in the filter, making it completely unappealing and unsanitary. This was part of a large family gathering, and moving locations wasn’t an option, or we would have left. For a total of $913 for three nights, we expected a safe, clean, and well-maintained space. Unfortunately, what could have been a relaxing stay turned into a frustrating experience. We won’t be returning, and we cannot recommend this property to others.

The lakeside rooms have a beautiful view of Upper Blue Lakes. There are porches with wooden chairs and a few tables to sit outside. It would have been perfect if not for the highway noise from Ca 20. No food is provided, but there are microwave, coffeemaker and coffee, Fridge. Its 6 miles to the nearest restaurant.
