The facilities themselves were in good shape and castle like and had one feeling at home the moment you arrived. I stayed in a student dorm and found that the cleanliness and comfort level was better then that of the average hostel, closer to a comfortable hotel. Attending the silent retreat I was really touched by the participation of the... More

I tried to a save a little money by getting a dorm room for a 5 night silent retreat. I paid dearly the year before and it was like staying in a fairly up-scale hotel room. The dorms however were depressing. Single beds. One dresser for 8 beds. In a basement that felt cold and dark. Poor air circulation and... More

I attended a 250-300 person conference and stayed in a student dorm room which was sparse to say the least, with no hooks or racks to put belongings much less a dresser. You get what you pay for. But the rest of the experience of the resort: the staff and the food were excellent. The landscaping was appealing. The staff... More

As part of a group that used this facility for silent meditation practice I can unequivocally state that the result was wonderful. This facility was able to serve our unique requirements and they did so with grace. Special thanks to Max for finding my forgotten items and mailing them back to me.

I and my two sons stayed at Granlibakken Resort over Spring Break. We had a great time and enjoyed our time at Granlibakken. The breakfast buffet was awesome, the rooms were large and comfortable, the pool and hot tub were great to relax in after a day on the slopes. Most of all, the Granlibakken team were very friendly and... More

Tahoe region is a lovely place and for a conference or a family vacation in ski country, this place is excellent. The staff were exceptional in their helpfulness and politeness. The food in the dining hall was very good. And the location is excellent. It isn't right on the slopes of the major areas, so if you want to ski... More

We went to Lake Tahoe to ski February 19-22, 2013. Our room at the Pine Lodge at Granlibakken was spacious and comfortable. Two queen beds, a refrigerator, and plenty of room. They don't mind if you bring skis/snowboards into the room. A full buffet breakfast was included with our package, which had fruit, cereal, yogurt, and eggs and bacon/sausage. Good... More
