Our family had another absolutely incredible stay! From the moment we arrived, everything was fantastic. We stayed in a 2 bedroom villa room and it was perfect. The rooms were spotless, beautifully maintained, and made for a comfortable and relaxing getaway. The large kitchen had a full size oven, stove, refrigerator, and included cutlery, plates, cups... everything you need! The location truly couldn't be better—close to everything while still feeling like the perfect escape. One highlight you definitely shouldn't miss is the pool area. Even though the weather was a bit chilly during our visit, the heated pools made it easy to jump right in and enjoy. The atmosphere was relaxing, fun, and one of our favorite parts of the trip. What keeps bringing us back, though, is the consistently outstanding experience. The staff was warm, welcoming, and always happy to help, making us feel right at home throughout our stay. This was our second year in a row visiting, and it only confirmed why we love this place so much. We're already counting down the days until we return next year!

“Relaxing Stay at Excellent Location”

We had an excellent 2-night stay at the Timber Lodge over the Easter weekend (closing date for skiing at Heavenly). Location is central right at the Heavenly Village and its scenic gondola. From the Village, there’s free shuttle to Heavenly’s California base. Target is just a 5-minute walk away, great for grabbing easy meals to make in the fully-equipped kitchen in-suite. The suite even has a dryer and washer unit, which we did not use but would be very useful for long stays. Our room was on the 4th floor facing the pool. I was worried about noise but even with lots of people at the pool and BBQ area, noise wasn’t a bother at all. We played bingo one evening at the lobby. Also borrowed a board game to play; can borrow 2 at a time. The only complaint was that we had late check-out at 11:30am from the front desk at check-in, but a staff still knocked on our door at 10am. It was unexpected that the hotel wanted guests to take out the trash and run the dishwasher before check-out. We did comply though. There’s only valet parking and it’s $45 per night charged to the room. Overall, it was a wonderful property to stay at. We would recommend to others and stay here again.

“Very nice visit!”

My family and I stayed at the Marriott’s Timberline Lodge for a week. This is our second visit at the resort. The first time we were evacuated after 4 nights due to the fires close by. We were in rooms 6535 (studio) & 6537 (1 bedroom with a full kitchen) in the Sierra Building on the 5th floor which is in the main building.This made it a 2 bedroom lock-off. Our rooms faced the pool and we never heard any pool noise. The rooms are very comfortable, spacious and clean. The kitchen has everything and more to cook in the room or at the grills. Although, a blender would be nice to have. There is a great option to text the front desk if you need housekeeping, maintenance or ask any other questions. Someone always got back to me right away. Valet parking is $45/day for non-owners (pricey) and it’s 24/7 access. Parking is included for Marriott owners. To get our car, we just had to text the valet 15 minutes before we wanted the car and it was always parked at the entrance. They will charge your car for $15. Everyone who worked at the resort was very friendly and helpful. I was disappointed to hear that a room tidy isn’t included in a week stay here. Now it’s only for a 9 night stay or longer. We did use the texting feature to get what we needed. The pool and hot tub are a great place to hang out during the day or evening. The hot tubs are super hot though. It would be nice if they were a few degrees cooler. There are plenty of towels, loungers and umbrellas while we were there. There are many grills surrounding the pool as well as a splash pad, ping pong tables and a fire pit. In the main building, there is a kid’s lounge, yoga/pilates room where classes are offered and a gym. Laundry rooms are in the hallways if you have a studio. There is a resort activity list for the week. Bingo is very popular. It’s great that the resort is located in Heavenly Village which offers many shops and restaurants within walking distance. Easy access out the back resort gate. Check out is precisely by 10:00am and check-in should start at 4:00pm. We arrived at 4:10pm and our 1 bedroom unit wasn’t ready but we could go into the studio. It was then ready within the half hour. There is a Safeway and Whole Foods for your grocery shopping needs. If you are a Marriott owner, ask the concierge for your 10% off card for various restaurants. Overall we had a great stay at the resort!
