Sierra Hot Springs | Resort & Retreat
Sierra Hot Springs Resort & Retreat In Sierraville, CA
Marketing description
This is a rare opportunity to own one of the very few operational hot springs properties in the United States. This offering blends historical charm with development potential. Commercial use has been grandfathered in since the 1800s, allowing the existing operations to continue as-is, while zoning amendments and master planning present a clear path for growth. Ideally located just minutes from Sierraville’s county airport, and 35 minutes to Truckee, this is a legacy property ready for its next chapter.
The heart of the offering is the renowned Sierra Hot Springs, a breathtaking 682-acre property featuring water rights to three geothermal springs—two surface springs and one drilled well. The property includes a rustic 8-room lodge with a restaurant, full kitchen, banquet room, lobby, and nine bathrooms. Additional amenities include two standalone cabins, a yoga room, sauna, bathhouse, multiple hot spring soaking areas, an outdoor pool, and numerous outbuildings and sheds. The on-site campground remains a key revenue stream. The property is serviced by a registered artesian well and offers over 50 parking spaces.
In downtown Sierraville, the Globe Hotel offers 11 guest rooms, five bathrooms, a full kitchen, and a cozy common area. This separate parcel is connected to city water, features an updated septic system, and includes 12 parking spots. With a full remodel completed in 1994, it offers a more modern feel while maintaining its character.
Just 15 minutes down the road in Calpine sits the Sierra Valley Lodge, a versatile venue situated on three acres. The lodge includes a bunkhouse with 13 guest rooms and two apartments, as well as a main building that houses a large bar, entertainment hall, and full commercial kitchen. This property offers a unique opportunity for group retreats, events, or future expansion—and could also serve as an excellent employee housing area given its layout and amenities.
Altogether, this portfolio presents a compelling blend of wellness, hospitality, and investment potential—perfect for visionary developers, hospitality groups, or individuals seeking a truly unique retreat in the Sierra Nevada.
