Top East County Hotel Reviews

Ayres Lodge Alpine

10/10 Excellent

"The lobby looks like a cozy hunting lodge, complete with fireplace and a dog (statue) by the door. Good breakfast options and good, strong coffee. Cookies in the evening. Spacious room, good bed, spotless floors and toilet/shower, absorbent towels, high end and generous toiletries. There was a comfy sofa with a table and a TV that swivels toward the sofa so you don't have to watch TV in bed (kills my neck). The plaza adjacent to the lodge provides Mexican food, coffee shops, pizza, ice cream, donuts, and a bank! We can't wait to come back to Ayers Lodge and the quaint town of Alpine."

Sycuan Casino Resort
