    Have you ever been somewhere where you swear everyone who works there must be related because they all have the same cheerful demeanor and attitude? Well, Plumpjack exudes family-style hospitality. If you're there to ski, you're less than a three-minute walk to the lifts and the village, maybe five minutes if you're wearing ski boots. I was there for a friend's wedding. They did a tremendous job on all fronts. The rooms were adequate, the food was good, and again, the staff was fantastic. They go the extra mile if you have any requests. They could write to book on creating a great customer experience! There are no elevators so keep that in mind. Also, I could hear the people above me clomping around throughout the day. I think they must have kept their ski boots on all the time, and spent the rest of their time dropping their luggage on the floor. Talk about harshing one's mellow!! Anyway, even the noisy clodhoppers above me couldn't sway my opinion of loving my stay at PlumpJack Inn!

    My husband and I got married at the end of September and still can't stop talking about how incredible our wedding was at PlumpJack. Not only was the venue in the most stunning location with beautiful views (especially with the fall colors), the team we worked with at PJ were absolutely wonderful. I firmly believe the group of people who are tasked with organizing and executing your wedding day can make or break the day, and we couldn't have been happier. We owe a HUGE thank you to Sarah, Bonnie, Rob and the rest of their team who made our wedding day perfect and far better than anything we could have expected. From the initial venue tour, to the many emails to ensure every detail was perfect, the accommodations made, and executing everything seamlessly on our wedding, I can say with full confidence we would do it all over again in a heartbeat. We are so happy with our decision to have our wedding at PlumpJack. Not only was the staff wonderful, and the location super dreamy, but the food was AMAZING. We chose to serve our guests fish and steak, and we were so impressed with how it turned out! We also really enjoyed the drink selections and know our guests did too! If you are looking for a venue that has it all, PlumpJack is the place- you will not be disappointed!

    First time ever visiting Squaw Valley/Tahoe area and could not have asked for a better experience! I was immediately charmed by the cozy aesthetic and the incredibly attentive staff as soon as we arrived. We were welcomed with a bottle of wine and bowl of popcorn (that was actually incredible!) and were ready to start exploring. When we spoke to the gentleman at the front desk, we were recommended one of the most beautiful trails I've ever hiked and were taken with how gorgeous the entire area is. Upon our return back to the hotel, we ended up renting a few bikes and doing some more exploring. The fact that you can rent a bike WITH a basket and ride around the grounds is one of the most charming and whimsical ideas and it really added to our experience. We loved our room, it had everything we needed and it took everything in me not to take every single bottle of soap/shampoo/conditioner because they all smelled incredible! Overall, it was an amazing experience that I definitely plan on repeating. The entire staff was a pleasure, everyone was more than friendly and attentive and were quick to offer some great ideas to enhance our stay and visit in the area. Thank you for a wonderful time!

    WARNING: First thing when you check in, check if your fireplace is leaking gas!…read more I would love to give this beautiful hotel a 5 star review but a traumatic experience with my friends last summer is preventing me from doing so. Specifically with the night shift front desk person. Our fireplace was leaking gas and we were told several times that it wasn't a big deal because "it was designed to smell bad at times" and to just "let the room air out". We tried that but the gas smell got worse to the point where we were nauseous, gagging, and dizzy. We got to the hotel at 10pm and were up until 2am asking to be moved to another room, having our calls ignored, having other guests helped before us, being told there were no rooms available, and there was nothing they could do. We were finally moved to a section of the hotel that was being remodeled and smelled very heavily of paint. By the time I was refunded for this completely unacceptable service we had moved rooms 3 times. I know this story sounds so dramatic but I can't make this up. We just had to spread the word so that this doesn't happen to anyone else. Please do NOT listen to anyone that tells you a gas leak is no big deal as prolonged exposure can be lethal. Demand a new room or go to a different hotel if you have to. We could have died had we not stood up for ourselves!

We stayed in a studio which had a full kitchen (including a microwave, electric kettle, dishwasher, and stove), a fireplace, and a pullout couch which slept an additional two people. The wifi comes with the room and was fast enough for me to be able to WFH. The bathroom has a tub and there were plenty of towels. Parking is also included and is in a garage. The check-in process was easy (starts at 4pm) and the front desk was very friendly. When we checked out, the front desk was closed (it was before 9am) but we were able to leave the gratuity envelope at the desk along with the key cards. They do recycle the cards and there's a receptacle indicating such. There is a small "gym" with a treadmill and stationary bike (no weights). There are hot tubs available by reservation. Overall, the location is good as it's right next to Olympic Village and the slopes of Squaw Valley. The decor was wolf-themed as befits the name and it's a cozy, homey stay.

Consequently,…read morethere was a significant amount of updating and construction occurring, with many amenities closed. I acknowledge that my experience would likely differ during the winter season. During my stay, the low number of guests meant I did not need to make reservations at restaurants or wait anywhere, which was a positive aspect despite the overall quietness. I am rating this place 3 stars for the following reasons: Pros: -Convenient location for transit to Tahoe City or Truckee, with free and direct routes. -Excellent sales at clothing shops due to clearance of winter inventory. Outstanding customer service; the team was exceptionally friendly and welcoming. -Very affordable pricing; I paid approximately $170 per night for a one-bedroom studio. -Rooms were equipped with a fridge and microwave. -Several food options in the village, although availability varied by day. -The sauna was excellent. Cons: -The gym was subpar, with free weights only up to 40 lbs and both the stationary bike and treadmill out of service. The only notable equipment was the cable machine and elliptical. -The hot tub was closed. -The tram was closed. -Several restaurants were closed for renovation. -Rideshare services to Tahoe City or Truckee were expensive, costing around $30+ each way. Overall, the emptiness during this period was a highlight. However, the timing of my stay coincided with the off-season, during which the facility undertook extensive renovations. This undoubtedly influenced my experience.

We figured the kitchens would make this easy, which still allowing the family to geta change a scenery in an area with a lot more hiking and outdoors fun than staying at home. Reserved a two-bedroom suite through the hotel - but you can also get similar rooms via other websites directly from private owners. The prices seemed to be similar. The room was great. Decent kitchen. Bunk beds in the kids room. Two decent sized bathrooms. Great little balcony that was shaded more of the afternoon. The rooms come with underground parking that lets you park really close to an elevator and have quick and easy access to your room wherever you are in the Village. We didn't use it, but they also a locked bike storage area in the garage that you can access with your key. We will be bringing the bikes next time for sure. This is great perk. The room was clean and we definitely felt safe there despite the ongoing pandemic. The only two hiccups were the lack of any bath mats in the restrooms (but they brought us some when we called and asked for them) and the phone in the main bedroom had a flashing red light indicating a message, but there was no message, meaning the light would not turn off. I had to hide it in the nightstand drawer to sleep. Strange, but not a big deal. We will absolutely go again. So convenient to be able to walk to everything, order takeout and take it back to the room and enjoy a nice large room.

The whole weekend we were there, it was 84 degrees and it takes forever for the condo to cool back down at night, so we had to use a VERY LOUD fan that was provided in the closet. According to front desk, it is a winter destination so not all have AC. But I asked if the ones with AC is more expensive, she said it's all the same price. So I guess we just got discriminated and placed in one that had no AC. 2. The fan was very dusty and dirty and we had to put it together as it wasn't readily operational. The bedroom was very small so the air was very dry with the fan blowing right at us we never got to sleep more than 4 hours. Every night. Couldn't leave windows open because the neighboring room's patio is very reachable so anyone can just jump over to the next unit. 3.The bed is hard. The pillows are flat! This is the worst bed set I have encountered. The pillows are of no use. 4. The bathroom sink faucet is broken. Everything that could go wrong in this place. 5. The WIFI NEVER WORKED. They gave us a password for the WIFI, tried in all different devices, in different days, called them and said it should work but never did. And we never got to finish important work on the computer All in all, for convenience of walking distance to restaurants and shops, this place is good. But if you came here to relax and be able to rest and sleep after a long day of activities, you won't be able to as it is not comfortable. Unfortunately never staying here again.

The pillows were also very cheap and flat, which can sometimes be the case in hotels, but this property claims to be a four star hotel. The pillows could not be folded in half without trapping air, making for an uncomfortable sleeping experience. This, combined with the poor level of cleanliness, made us feel uneasy throughout our stay. Despite the name, this is actually a motel. For the price, it felt very overpriced.
