Sierra Sun Cloud Inn

Not much better. Secluded. No need for TV when you have such regal views and such wonderful hospitality.

Absolutely wonderful stay at the Sierra Sun Cloud Inn! Guy and the folks at the Inn are welcoming, kind and went above and BEYOND to make our stay extra special. The Inn is beautiful, quiet and remote. It’s a lovely get-​away from the city and was a perfect stop-​off on our way out to Tahoe (Squaw was an easy 1.5hr ride away). Huge rooms, hot tub, breakfast and wine upon arrival really made Sierra Sun Cloud a stand-​out for us. Thanks for your 5-​star hospitality. We will definitely be back!

Lovely place. Google maps went a little wonky once I got to Coyote Hill road, so I am very glad I followed the proprietor’s directions. Very clean, well maintained and just charming. I stayed in the Morning Glory room and it was very quiet. The ground were so pretty and the view was wonderful. I had to leave before breakfast was served but I saw what they were cooking and it looked terrific. fresh fruit, bacon and eggs… yum
Thanks for squeezing me in at the last minute. it made my trip to Colfax for a funeral a little nicer

My husband and I held our wedding ceremony and reception at the Sierra Sun Cloud Inn on 9÷19÷15 and it was exceptional. The scenery there is beautiful and the outdoor view is amazing. The photo opportunities on the grounds were abundant. The house itself is immaculately maintained and hosts several uniquely fantastic rooms. Guy was very accommodating and helpful. Our special day was a complete success! We highly recommend staying at the Sierra Sun Cloud Inn. It will always hold a special place in our hearts.

This large, beautiful home is immaculately maintained. The grounds are gorgeous, the views are expansive and there’s quiet to spare. The Victorian room we stayed in was overflowing with charm and little decorative details. Our bed was super comfortable. We didn’t hear a peep from anybody else in the house. The host is very chill, pleasant and helpful.
Unfortunately we only stayed overnight but I’d love to hang out here for a couple days and enjoy the grounds. I’ll recommend this place to my friends for sure.
Side Note:
I’m also impressed that Apple Maps was able to guide us here, given my earlier confidence in that app. This place is not easy to find in the dark, there are lots of turns once you get off the main road but man, Siri came through with flying colors.

My girlfriend and I just returned from the most wonderful stay at Sierra Sun Cloud Inn. This place is truly a hidden gem. Upon arriving, we were pleasantly met with beautifully landscaped grounds including a beautiful pond and flowers. We arrived just in time to watch the sunset in a hammock, followed by a dip in the hot tub! It was so quiet and serene.
We stayed in the Morning Glory Room which was adorable and cheaper than the other rooms due to a detached, private bathroom which we didn’t mind at all. Other amenities included an entertainment room with a pool table, free coffee, Red & White Wine and bottled water.
Breakfast was delicious the next morning and we highly enjoyed the conversation with the other guests. We will definitely return as this is my new favorite spot.

This place is phenomenal! It’s like a sanctuary. Very friendly helpful staff. Great breakfast. The grounds are gorgeous and quiet. One of the best experiences I’ve ever had staying somewhere. Cute Victorian house and rooms. Nice pool table and jacuzzi. Can’t say enough about this place.

The experience I had while staying here was very pleasant. After going to a wedding out of town and checking in far later than expected due to a fire in the area, I was greeted nicely upon arrival shown around briefly and told about breakfast and the gaming room. Since it was very late in the evening the paper work was held to be filled out in the morning which was greatly appreciated. The room was very clean and everything worked properly. Breakfast was quite good the following morning. There was also no rush in checking out which was fantastic I recommend this place to anyone going out of town and planning to stay over night in the area!

If you are ever in the area, stay here! If you are a local, stay here for a night! The sunsets from the views could be ranked with the word’s best. They are to be captured. The house and rooms were decorated with beautiful furniture and were very comfortable. The breakfasts were filling, creative and delicious. The hospitality is some of the best I have ever received. I am a world traveler and I like to travel in luxury. You get to be apart of country living in the most elegant way. I highly recommend this place to everyone. Very private

We stayed here for our wedding night in the Victorian room on 7÷27÷013. I have never spent so much on a room for a single night, but I also have not felt like I have gotten so much more than what I paid for.
The room was gorgeous! My wife absolutely loved the style and simplicity of the room. Guy and Alicia (the hosts) were friendly and welcoming. The atmosphere was warm and accommodating. Very relaxing place to stay. The breakfast was delicious as well.
And the views. The views were really nice. The property is very well maintained, and very beautifully decorated. We felt like we had just came home … never felt so good to stay away from home!
I’m sure we will stay again some time in the future. We highly recommend this place. The price is high, but you will leave feeling pampered and refreshed, and it is worth every penny, especially for a special occasion!

I just got back from the most relaxing and refreshing weekend at Sierra Sun Cloud Inn, and I am so thrilled that this gem is just 2 hours from me. A tip: Get directions directly from Guy or Alicia, the owners, as internet directions will lead you astray.
Everything was absolutely perfect; The large, gorgeous house on 18.5 acres of rolling green hills and wild flowers, the country style décor throughout every room, the millions of stars that come down close at night. Falling asleep to the sounds of bullfrogs (Added bonus: No mosquitoes because of these little guys), watching the sunset in the Hammock in the front yard.
They have two adorable puppies that stay out of the way unless you want to play with them outside. The breakfast that was served every morning was so, so delicious. The first morning was a fruit crêpe with a poached egg and bacon, (they are concerned and accommodating with any dietary restrictions) and the second breakfast was a baked egg dish with veggies in it and fruit on the side.
Guy and Alicia have an excellent business and very obviously love what they do as shown through their genuine interest in talking with their guests. I believe that I found something truly special in this place and cannot wait to return in the Autumn to watch the foliage change colors!

I needed a place to stay close to Lake of the Pines in Auburn, CA and luckily came across this little gem on
. I stayed here on July 15, 2011 with my 11 month old daughter. The grounds were beautiful with a spectacular, breathtaking view. The room was spacious, quiet and very clean. The owners were friendly and immediately made me feel totally comfortable. It was akin to staying at a distant relatives house. I took full advantage of the play/​entertainment room enjoying a complimentary glass of wine while my daughter played and then we watched a movie. We had a restful night’s sleep and awoke to a generous, and again, complimentary full breakfast. The proprietors were very accommodating to me and my hectic schedule. They also stayed flexible in their schedule allowing me to check-​in and check-​out at times that worked for me so that I was able to relax and enjoy my little getaway. The only reason I didn’t give five stars is because I would have preferred to have a curtain in my room. Not for privacy, since no one could humanly possible see in that room’s window, but because of the sun waking my babygirl at the crack of dawn. I absolutely will stay here again and again and again.

This place is great! We have been twice already and we will visit again. Spectacular views, lots of hiking trails, clean, comfortable rooms, and the food is awesome! A fantastic place to get away from it all. Or if you just want to explore the area, Guy and Alicia are a wealth of information.

We had a great time at Sierra Sun Cloud Inn. The inn is located at the top of a hill near Colfax and has beautiful views of the mountains in all directions. The setting is idyllic and the B&B itself is a beautiful, sprawling house with 4 guest bedrooms and 3 bathrooms.
Two of the rooms have private, in room bathrooms. The other two room share a bathroom that can be accessed by either room. If one couple occupies one of the rooms then the other room is left empty so that the bathroom can be private. However, if 2 couples wanted to occupy the two rooms they could share the bathroom on request.
The rooms are meticulously clean and well-​appointed. Each room has it’s own theme and all rooms have charming views. There is a great hot tub outdoors under the stars. It is always surprising how many stars you can see when you are not surrounded by light pollution!
The proprietors, Alicia and Guy, are very friendly and welcoming and make your stay just that much more enjoyable. Alicia is a fabulous cook and the breakfast is so good you will be talking about it for weeks.
Sierra Sun Cloud Inn is a great place to go on a honeymoon, anniversary, romantic retreat, or just for a fun night away!
