There's an additional parking lot behind the building, which is free. Breakfast is included in the room rate of $136 per night. The room is decent-sized and has two double beds.

Fortunately, there are two 7-Eleven EV charging stalls across the street, but you'll need a CCS1 to NACS adapter for your Tesla.

Traffic can be heard as it's near the freeway but in my opinion is reminiscent of listening to the ocean at a distance. They do have a breakfast although we opted for a restaurant nearby. The signage in the office said breakfast started at 6:30. As we rolled out of the parking lot at 6:45 the office was still dark. The parking lot is surrounded by a fence for security. Possibly just to have everyone come by the front of the building (and cameras?). The whole building is nonsmoking. Quite nice. Only one keycard worked which seemed odd. We were just here overnight so no need to get that fixed. Check in process was pretty smooth. If I were in the area, I'd stay here again.

Stayed one night during the weekend and thought it was overall a convenient place to crash and fair value. Breakfast included: - cereal - oatmeal - scramble eggs - biscuits and gravy - turkey patties and pork sausage - assorted breads, packaged muffins and cinnamon rolls - juice fountain, milk in the refrigerator, and yogurt There was also a simple fitness center (has a water dispenser inside, cold and room temperature water) and a pool onsite with a hot tub. At night the staff got very busy cuz it seemed like only one person was covering everything. But they are friendly and helpful. Can ask the front desk for free toothpaste and toothbrush. One notable con is that there were no hot water kettles nor a hot water dispenser in the lobby (except during breakfast). (How do u drink the teas?) Hot coffee was available in the lobby and in the room using a Keurig machine. Ended up using the microwave to heat up water.

When we booked our spot, we also had a free round of golf included at the adjacent course. We hadn't planned on golfing, so we didn't have time during our stay to take advantage, but met a few families who come regularly just for that reason. The campsite was clean and quiet, and even though we had a spot (#4) that was adjacent to the main road that the Lakes is off of, we didn't have any issues with noise as I've seen some reviews mention. The staff was wonderful, from the lady over the phone that took our reservations to the young man working the front desk during our stay. We will definitely visit again... and go golfing this time too!

Review: Knights Inn Hotel - Discrimination Against Homeless Veteran and Service Animal…read moreMy recent experience at the Knights Inn hotel was deeply disturbing and frankly, unacceptable. As a homeless veteran accompanied by my legitimate service animal, I was met with blatant discrimination that violated both federal and state laws. Upon attempting to check in, I was subjected to questioning about my service animal that went far beyond what is legally permissible. The owner demanded "documentation" and seemed to imply my veteran status or homelessness somehow negated my right to have my service animal with me. This line of questioning is not only intrusive but directly contrary to the rights afforded to individuals with disabilities. Furthermore, the general attitude and treatment I received felt dismissive and prejudiced. It was clear that my circumstances were being judged, and this judgment extended to my service animal, who is a crucial part of my daily life and well-being. Regarding the law, it is imperative that the Knights Inn, and all public accommodations, understand and adhere to the following: * Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA): Under the ADA, service animals are not pets. Hotels cannot deny access to a person with a disability accompanied by a service animal, even if they have a "no pets" policy. They cannot charge extra fees or deposits for service animals. Hotels are generally only permitted to ask two questions: * Is the animal required because of a disability? * What work or task has the animal been trained to perform? They cannot ask for documentation, require the animal to demonstrate its task, or inquire about the nature of the person's disability. Service animals must be allowed in all areas where the public is permitted. * California Law: California law aligns with the ADA, further protecting individuals with disabilities and their service animals. California Civil Code sections, such as § 54.1 and § 54.2, explicitly grant individuals with disabilities the right to be accompanied by their service animals in public accommodations, including hotels. Additionally, California Penal Code sections like PC 365.5 make it a misdemeanor to prevent or interfere with a disabled person's rights to use their service animal. There are also protections under fair housing laws that extend to individuals in shelters and those who are homeless, recognizing the importance of assistance animals. The actions of the Knights Inn staff were a clear violation of these fundamental rights. Discrimination against a veteran, especially one experiencing homelessness, and denying access to a trained service animal is not just poor customer service; it is illegal and morally reprehensible. I hope this review serves as a warning to other potential guests and, more importantly, prompts the Knights Inn management to immediately educate their staff on disability rights and service animal laws to prevent such discriminatory incidents from happening again. Every individual, regardless of their housing status, deserves to be treated with dignity and respect, and their rights, particularly those related to service animals, must be upheld without question.

My family came here to visit not knowing what to expect. It was a great experience learning how Forestiere built these tunnels so intentionally and with innovation.

The tour ends in the grand ballroom which connects to the gift shop. There you can find citrus sorbet made from the fruits of this garden. I had to give that a taste and it was sweet and zesty.

Padded, forward facing seating and a private guide make it worth it. The price point is worth it when you consider dinner & dessert , beverages (including beer/wine), plus the train experience and campfire singers at the stop. We had an amazing 4 hours (5:30-9:30pm). Pre-dinner we strolled the grounds, gift shops & museums and watched some folks pan for gold. Dinner at 6:30 and then you're off by 7:15pm. The train ride and history lesson aboard the train plus a lively sing along at the campfire stop take you through to 9:30 return to the depot. Highly recommend!
