Our take

I recommend Clair Tappaan Lodge to travellers who prefer a rustic, sociable lodge to a standard hotel: private rooms and dorms, family-style meals, a game room and a hot tub, plus free parking and Wi-Fi. Sugar Bowl Resort is a short taxi ride away, which makes it a practical base for winter sports. Comfort is simple and shared spaces are part of the experience, but a 9.0 score from 133 reviews shows guests love it.

  • Take advantage of the family-style meals for a social dining experience and good value.
  • If you're driving, the free parking is a major benefit, so plan your transport accordingly.
  • Utilize the hot tub after a day of exploring or skiing for ultimate relaxation.

Why we love it

  • Budget-friendly accommodation with free parking
  • Family-style meals and a communal atmosphere
  • Relaxing hot tub and a fun game room
  • Kitchens available in some rooms for flexibility
Why guests love it

Clair Tappaan Lodge is a rustic, budget-friendly lodge a short taxi ride from Sugar Bowl Resort, with private rooms and dorms, so families can take a room of their own. Family-style meals are served, some rooms have kitchens, and the game room and hot tub keep children and parents busy after a day outdoors. Parking and Wi-Fi are free. Guests rate it 9.0 from 133 reviews, and I would book it for a simple mountain stay with children.
