I loved it, 5 stars and will certainly stay there again.
Pros:

Easy check in, very clean and well maintained

Cons:

Not their fault of course, but the town of Markleeville shuts down pretty early. Bring food or eat dinner before you get there.

After initial doubts we really enjoyed our stay.
Pros:

Todd the proprietor was most welcoming & helpful.It is great basic accommodation if you are an angler or want a base to explore the stunning country.

Cons:

One has to go across the road to get breakfast from a cafe and also to eat excellent evening meals at a restaurant. That is not a criticism of the lodge as it wasn’t intended to have such facilities.
