We were a little early for our reservation and I was letting the hostess know. She got kind of snotty with me like I was asking to be sat now! Which I wasn't. Server was overwhelmed which made service slow, but not her fault. Food was ok. I didn't see what everyone else thought was so special about this place.

Plumas Pines Bar and Grill offers a little piece of heaven right on beautiful Lake Almanor. We were seated outside on the deck and our drink order was taken and brought to us right away. My fish and chips were delicious...best fries ever! The Pene Pasta with chicken (or shrimp) was wonderful. The house made cheese cake was a nice topper with my coffee. The lake was a perfect backdrop to a great experience. Make a reservation!

Reserved an RV space for my husband's birthday a month in advance. We were anticipating arriving to what was depicted on the website. There are only 4 nightly spaces (pricey) and placed on the main road into the marina so there was traffic back and forth during the day. The RV park is full with seasonal and full time residents. Our RV is only 26 ft C class, yet we had to squeeze in between the deck on one side, a tree on the other and a huge boulder at one end. The spaces are very close together - approx. 10 feet from each other. Dogs off leash seemed to be the accepted norm which made for a stressful walk with our own each time we took them out. There is no camp host present. I had planned on a birthday dinner of prime rib for my husband only to be told on our arrival at the restaurant that reservations are recommended, especially on weekends, and they had nothing available until 8:30 p.m. Thankful to the hostess who saw my distress when I explained the occasion that made a table ready for us. The view of the lake is beautiful and we enjoyed sitting on the deck for coffee in the morning, however, the "resort" falls short and was disappointing.

Service was excellent; dining on the deck at 6-7pm was very comfortable, shaded, light breeze; casual with some diners coming in off the lake; salmon special with caper/lemon sauce excellent, cooked perfectly. Pleasant music in the background, not too loud.

We were there last month. It was perfect this month the rare prime rib was well done. Our drinks never came for forever, and our waitress, was oblivious to our cares. We didn't get horseradish this time, which is OK but she said well you should've asked for it if that's what you wanted.

Was a beautiful night out on the deck for dinner. I had the lemon herb chicken which I thought was mighty tasty and tender. My friends had the rib eyes and they were not impressed for the price of them, and they were not cooked to their liking... one ordered a side salad which was not brought out until the dinners were served ... she just had it boxed up to go at that point... I had to ask several times for a straw for my drink and a box to take left overs. It was early enough for dinner that a lot of bugs weren't out yet but as we were leaving the gnats started swarming... there was several screaming and crying babies so it wasn't a very peaceful dinner, but not the restaurants fault.... Just wish that people had consideration for others when bringing their children to restaurants, when they are worn out from being at the lake all day.

Made a last minute reservation. Love having that option here now! Perfect evening out on the patio. Great meal. Nice breeze. Great service. Tuesday night for the win! Just wish there was a dog friendly option. Saw lots of pups in vehicles in the parking lot.

We really like this spot! The best thing about it is that it's lakefront and has a free boat dock for patrons. They are very busy almost always, and even a morning reservation made for dinner the same day didn't score us an outdoor table. Indoor is dark and lackluster except at the bar, which wasn't appropriate for our kids. I was super happy to see that they accept Open Table reservations, but when we arrived at 4:15pm, the outdoor tables were only about 30% occupied and they wouldn't seat anyone because they all had 5pm reservations on them. They are well staffed and the staff is friendly, but we waited about 15 minutes to get water and order our drinks while servers walked right past us. Once our server arrived, she was wonderful and attentive. Our food was fantastic. Value is okay. They definitely use high quality ingredients and don't skimp on portions, but our bill for a party of 6 was about $250 including tip. ($40 of which was alcohol) Overall, we will continue to patronize Plumas Pines because it's so convenient when boating and the food is super tasty.... We just need to make sure to book a day or two in advance so we can sit lakefront and take in the beautiful view!!

Nothing like sitting outside on the PP deck for dining Mer with friends. Good was substandard:; bad presentation and very dry, over- cooked salmon. For the price of dinner, we expect better.

Service was very slow When do you get bread sticks and dessert at the same time?? Food was fair, poor service was the ultimate let down. Father's Day dinner was a total disappointment I won't go back for any reason

The room itself was OK. The TV only got two stations even though there was supposed to be twelve, contacted the person in charge,she said they would fix it. Never did. The pillows were about an inch thick and the towels were the worst quality I've ever seen in a motel.

We have been visiting Plumas Pines for years. We are most frequently there during peak holiday times. The staff always works extremely hard to please all of their patrons regardless of how busy they are. We love the food, ambience, view and staff.

We went out to dinner for our 31sr anniversary. I had the MahiMahi. Oh my it was perfect. As was my husband's prime rib. Such an enjoyable couple hours by the lake. Thank you.

The stables are a little hard to find but well worth it. On the West Shore, from Highway 89 take "Almanor Drive West" --near Plumas Pines Resort-- Owner's grandmother, Dee, started this stables over 50 years ago. Owner's mother, Deanna, passed away in 2021. Horses are well trained. I raised my kids on their pony ride and trail horses. Trails are shaded and beautiful. Helmets are available and optional.

The cabins are filthy dirty and the refrigerator didn't work. The window was opened, it would not close. We left after the first night. Complained to management about the refrigerator and window with no call back response. Filing another complaint with the local bbb. Finn
