Our Texas family of three stayed at the Sierra Sands Family Lodge a couple of weeks ago. This family run business is a shining example of how a business should be run. From our last minute trip planning call to inquire about room availability, where they promised to call us back and they did, to how friendly they were when we checked in or had questions about the area -where to eat, go fishing etc., there's simply a sincere desire to provide friendly service. Heck, they even offered to let my 10 year old son use their fishing equipment.
During our stay the hotel was packed, but the hotel facilities (pool, playground, noise etc) nor the staff providing the the service seemed to suffer from the load -call it right sized and run right. The rooms are NOT clean, they are IMMACULATE. For that matter, the entire place is clean -rooms, pool, hot tub, playground, parking lot. They've even got a nice patio/seating area in from of the hotel -a great place to have your morning coffee while watching 3 beautiful American flags wave in the wind. I could go on and on, but hopefully you get the picture. The Sierra Sands does it right and comes with our highest recommendation.
