    Love the St. Bernard Lodge

    April 21, 2013

    We have stayed at the St. Bernard Lodge many times and we love it. Jim and Sharon are amazing Inn Keepers and always make you feel right at home. Food is great and the tavern is SUPER fun. Rooms take you back in time and are always clean and cozy. Our kids love it too. Perfect location for all the activities in the area and there are many. Can't wait for our next visit in July.

    Cozy and wonderful winter base for Lassen Park

    November 26, 2011

    My husband and I have come here for many years, as our winter base for exploring Lassen Park. We love it! The service and food are exceptional. The breakfast that is included is immense -- we pack the leftovers for lunch and then some. Great personal attention and accommodation of recipes as we are both gluten-free. The owners are kind, generous, and enjoyable to talk with; truly a delightful place!

    Wonderful place to go!

    October 31, 2011

    My husband surprised me for my birthday to goto the St. Bernard Lodge. We took our horses with us, and had a blast! The food was beyond wonderful, service & hospitality was great, and the rooms were very clean and tidy! The trails were nice and the lodge provided nice pipe corrals for the horses to stay in. We will DEFINITELY go back!

    Great for a weekend getaway

    October 27, 2011

    Nice room, quiet location in the woods, friendly and helpful innkeepers and wonderful food. The meals featured freshly-baked items, the breakfasts were ample and delicious...for dinner, we especially liked the fried chicken.

    Good location, but below average stay

    October 14, 2011

    The hardwood floors are loose and made noise every step you take. It's unsettling at night when you're trying to sleep and people are walking around or getting up to use the bathroom. The walls are paper thin, so you also hear everything from both sides of the room. The shared bathrooms don't have locks, just a chain, so expect strangers opening your door 1-2 inches several times before realizing someone is in there. It's almost impossible to get a night's rest and not the best shared bathroom experience. We also waited for the owner for 15-20 minutes to ask for a to-go box as she just ignored the entire dining room and chatted with a guest. We ended up walking up to her and apologizing for interrupting to ask for a box. Then 5 minutes later, when we had to check out, we once again had to go find her and interrupt her conversation. This put us 30minutes behind our schedule. She never apologized for or even acknowledged the fact that she was not attentive or let us wait. Truly the worst service we've ever gotten at a B&B. We stay at them often.

    Great Relaxing Get Away

    October 09, 2011

    My wife and I love this place! Jim and Sharon who are the Inn keepers were very friendly and gave us a lot of insight to the things to do in the local area. The lodge is close to Mt. Lassen Volcanic Park which is a beautiful scenic drive, great for pictures, hiking and picnics during the summer and fall. Jim and Sharon also told us about all the winter activities. We also visited Lake Almanor which is fifteen minutes away. What a beautiful lake! We drove around it and saw some great vistas with Mt. Lassen as the back drop. This would be great place for family's who enjoy boating, waterskiing, fishing etc... Sharon explained that there is a great hiking and biking trail that goes around the lake as well. Jim showed us the "Lightening Trout" that they have in their pond. A very unique breed of yellow trout with an orange strip, a fish you must see to believe. The rooms were very comfortable and even through you are close to the road there is very little traffic, especially at night. In the evening we had drinks on the deck and enjoyed the sunset and then went inside for a great dinner. My wife and I loved the Clam Chowder!! She had steak and I had Scampi, both were delicious. After dinner we relaxed in the lounge area where other guests sat at the bar and played pool. It was a very friendly and family oriented evening. We strongly recommend the St. Bernard Lodge and will return this winter to visit Lassen Park for the snow shoeing and cross country skiing. Maybe we will try the Snowmobiles, Jim and Sharon have a number of groups who come every year when the snow gets deep.
