Mammoth Lakes is a breathtaking display of natural wonders, from the snow-covered slopes of Mammoth Mountain to the sheer cliffs of Half Dome Rock in Yosemite National Park. But most folks know this beloved California region for its world-class ski and snowboard territory – no small feat for most, but relatively easy for a region that enjoys 400-plus inches of snow and close to 300 days of alpine sunshine each year. We can’t imagine a better location for a California ski resort and it’s clear that the properties on our list of Top 10 Mammoth Lakes Ski resorts agree. This scenic region has inspired more than its share of visitors – including famed American photographer, Ansel Adams – and we think it’s safe to assume you’ll find a little inspiration of your own when you stay at any one of the equally stunning properties featured below!

Not only does the Mammoth Lakes resort in our No. 5 spot overlook one of the many California lakes, its delectable culinary offerings give you further incentive (as if you need any) to ski the Mammoth Mountain slopes all day, every day. Your food and fun-fueled Mammoth Lakes vacation begins at Tamarack Lodge!

Mammoth Lodging – Tamarack Lodge’s management company – likes to say that nothing but a down comforter and a door comes between you and the Mammoth Lakes slopes. While we admit it’s a big of an exaggeration, we think you’ll forgive them for bragging once you lay eyes – and skis – on the pristine powder of the nearby Mammoth Mountain slopes. But don’t hit the slopes without taking us – or rather, Tamarack Lodge – up on the bountiful menu offerings we promised. The lodge’s Lakefront Restaurant serves up to-die-for dishes like smoked trout and pan-seared veal tenderloin. We recommend saving room for one of this Mammoth Lake eatery’s divine desserts, including wild blueberry tarts! Those looking for a year-round Mammoth Lakes mountain experience won’t be disappointed; Tamarack Lodge shines in every season. Education blends seamlessly with recreation in most of Tamarack Lodge’s daily offerings, from expert fly fishing and mountain biking instruction to laidback lodge staples like storytelling and s’mores around the campfire.

If we wanted to be practical, we could tell you that we chose the Mammoth Lakes resort in our No. 6 spot for its comfortable accommodations and convenient main street location. But we’re feeling a bit daring, so we’ll divulge a little secret: we chose Sierra Lodge for its ability to offer a thrill seeker’s paradise in every season!

Warning: The following may cause you to abandon your normally sensible nature, convince you to ignore your inner voice of reason and even persuade you to hop a flight and indulge in some borderline reckless behavior at Sierra Lodge. Since legally we can’t be held responsible for such actions, we give you the green light! Speaking of green, there’s plenty of it to be hiked, mountain biked and explored in area surrounding Sierra Lodge, but California adventures reach new heights inside Yosemite National Park. Half Dome, El Capitan and Yosemite Falls are just the few of the natural wonders waiting to be discovered within this world-famous park! California’s aptly-named Convict Lake was once the site of a standoff between trigger-happy escaped convicts and local law enforcement, but today this Mammoth Lakes beauty boasts rugged mountain scenery made for hiking, sheer cliffs meant to be climbed and even a lake, formed by receding glaciers, that’s brimming with freshwater fish.

Highlights

Your Sierra Lodge vacation includes a free shuttle service to jet you off to adventure in style and an outdoor Jacuzzi for relieving well-earned aches and pains.

Getting there

Sierra Lodge is conveniently located in downtown Mammoth Lakes on Main Street and just past the post office and Angel’s Restaurant. The lodge is within walking distance to shops, restaurants and nightlife, while the new village is less than a mile from its front door. Route 120 into Yosemite National Park is only 20 minutes away by car.

Fun facts

Sierra Lodge was the first non-smoking hotel in the Mammoth Lakes area for your health and to insure the freshest and cleanest hotel rooms in Mammoth.

Mammoth Lakes is primarily known as one of America’s top-rated ski towns, but the same factors that make it a delight to ski – fresh powder, crisp mountain air and breathtaking California scenery – also make it perfectly suited for romantic weekends, especially when you journey to the resort in our No. 7 spot, the Mammoth Creek Hotel.

When it comes to planning a romantic California getaway that’s simply unforgettable, Mammoth Creek Hotel’s deluxe romance packages – complete with chilled champagne, dipped strawberries from Rocky Mountain Chocolate Factory and an in-suite massage for two – let you enjoy the fruits of your romantic weekend without lifting a finger. As if that weren’t enough to satisfy your special someone, the Mammoth Lakes area is bursting at the seams with equally amorous activities. Scenic gondola rides, horseback riding and kayaking can all be enjoyed in tandem in summer months, while snowmobile excursions through the Mammoth wilderness are an excellent excuse to get close when the weather turns cold. Mammoth Creek’s lodge rooms, suites and lofts are outfitted with everything you could wish for when it’s time to take a break from Mammoth Mountain’s slopes. Down comforters, plush robes and private balconies with views of the Sherwin Mountains offer you and yours just the right blend of luxurious comfort and mountain ambiance!

Highlights

The Mammoth Creek Hotel offers free airport shuttle to and from the Mammoth Yosemite Airport for your convenience.

Fun facts

American photographer Ansel Adams was so inspired by this California mountain town that many of its peaks, valleys and pine forests are showcased throughout his work. But even a camera-wielding genius like Adams can’t do justice to what it’s like to actually experience Mammoth Mountain. For that, we recommend our No. 8 pick, Summit Condominiums.

Don’t worry, we still plan to give Summit’s spacious condos their dues. But first, we think a proper introduction to Mammoth Lakes is in order – in the form of a half-day trip to the Ansel Adams Gallery, that is. His black and white photographs are stunning, to be sure, but we didn’t fully appreciate them until we stepped outside the gallery’s doors and straight into a living version of his work. And we weren’t the only ones; someone at Summit was so impressed with Adams that an entire building at this Mammoth Lake ski resort bears his name! We may have moved on from Adams and into the accommodations, but we don’t know how we’re going to do justice to Summit’s Mammoth Lake condo rentals. It’s probably best to just stick to the facts. Like the fact that Summit condos come in an incredible variety of shapes and sizes, from pet-friendly one-bedroom lofts to sprawling three bedrooms at the foot of Eagle Lodge lifts.

Highlights

Mammoth Mountain offers hiking, biking and more in the Ansel Adams Wilderness in summer months.

Getting there

From Los Angeles, take State Route 14 north from Los Angeles to U.S. 395. Take U.S. 395 north to Bishop. Continue north on U.S. 395 to Hwy. 203. Take Hwy. 203 west to Mammoth. Mammoth Mountain is about 323 miles from Los Angeles.

Fun facts

Summit Condominiums offers numerous guest services such as the Sweetheart Special and Children's Package, restaurant recommendations and ski equipment rental vouchers.

Looking for an authentic Austrian experience without the expense of a lengthy across-the-pond flight? “Willkommen” to Austria Hof Lodge, the Mammoth Lake resort in our No. 9 spot. The Austria Hof may be inspired by the motherland, but you can forgo the traditional leiderhosen in favor of ski pants – this California mountain lodge is all about the slopes!

There’s a reason – or three, depending who you ask – that Austria Hof Lodge sells more Mammoth Mountain ski packages than their competition. It only makes sense given the lodge’s location a mere 200 yards from the Village gondola and Mammoth slopes. It definitely doesn’t hurt that the lodge offers some of California’s most luxurious ski accommodations, with granite countertops, premium down bedding and jetted tubs in most of its three diamond hotel rooms. And the lodge’s ability to offer complete and convenient ski packages at the best prices surely has something to do with it. But if you ask us, it’s Austria Hof Lodge’s dizzying array of après-ski activities that puts them out of reach of other Mammoth Lakes lodges. Like a lounge that serves up signature martinis and specialty coffees, an outdoor Jacuzzi with panoramic views of the Mammoth slopes and an endless list of nightlife options scattered about town, to name a few. We were especially impressed by the hot spiced wines and savory German specialties (think schnitzel, spaetzle and sauerkraut) offered up in the Austria Hof Restaurant – Mammoth’s only authentic German restaurant!

Getting there

Take Hwy. 203 to the Mammoth Lakes exit to Main Street. Continue up Main Street through three stoplights. Turn right at the third stoplight onto Canyon Boulevard. Follow Canyon Boulevard one mile to the Austria Hof Lodge, located at the top of the road on the right and next to Mammoth Mountain Ski Area at Canyon Lodge.

Fun facts

During the summer months, the Mammoth ski slopes transform into the Mammoth Mountain Bike Park with numerous trails converging right outside Austria Hof Lodge’s front doors.

Related Onsite Offerings

Mammoth Lakes condos, conveniently located near the slopes and the village, are also available through the Austria Hof Lodge.

We wish they all could be California gir...uhhh, Mammoth Lakes resorts. Suffice to say, since seeing our No. 1 pick, Westin Monache Resort in Mammoth Lakes, California, we are a bit more than obsessed with the astounding quality and class they deliver.

Westin Monache Resort has successfully harnessed their surroundings and molded a California destination flourishing with alpine character and modern sophistication. Seven large California River Rocks are suspended from the entrance of the resort and lead your goggling eyes to Whitebark Restaurant and Bar. The nature-influenced décor continues here with 375 of the same River Rocks hanging over the bar area. The restaurant is constructed with American chestnut wood that was gathered from barns in Pennsylvania, South Carolina and Virginia. But what about the outside, you ask? Beyond the heated outdoor pool that has almost weekly live entertainment, there is the towering Mammoth Mountain itself. Satiate your snow sports appetite. Rated #1 ski resort in North America in 2004 by TransWorld Magazine, the more than 3,500 skiable acres and 3,100 vertical feet prove that ranking tried and true. Or, trade the skis for a snowmobile, pair of skates or Huskies and a dog sled!

Related activities

Visit Westin in warm weather too! When the ice melts, pristine alpine lakes and cascading waterfalls accompanied by Orvis guides makes fly-fishing season a must. You can also drink up the scenery from the top – by mountain-climbing!

Fun facts

Westin Monache Resort wants to make your stay as stress-free as possible, so take advantage of their local shuttle service, onsite parking, pet services and more.

Related Onsite Offerings

Not every member of your party has to be a hard-core cold sport enthusiast. There is plenty of space to sled, build a snowman or make a snow angel! The skating rink also has hockey games to participate in if your thrill lies on frozen lakes instead of mountain slopes.

Some people were just born with skis on their feet and naturally slice up snowy slopes, which is why we’ve placed Juniper Springs Resort as our No. 11 pick. Mammoth’s premier ski in/ski out is now at your fingertips – or, should we say at your toe-tips?

A sweet mixture of peace and exhilaration awaits you at Juniper Springs Resort. Its proximity to Mammoth Village but secluded, elevated location in the mountains gives you a convenient and private California alpine vacation. It’s simple to see why Juniper Springs Resort was named in Conde Nast Traveler’s Top 50 Ski Resorts. Located at the Eagle Express chair lift and with an exclusive in-house ski and snowboard rental shop, you will have no trouble finding skis, snowboards, tickets, lessons or a hot cup of hot cocoa. Relax your exercised muscles in one of the outdoor hot tubs and don’t be afraid to do so while sticking out your tongue to catch a snowflake! However, if you are thirsty, stop by The Daily Grind for an invigorating espresso. Around the clock front desk service, a fitness center, gas fireplace and golf course nearby are the added bonuses to this already magnificent mountain getaway!

Getting there

From Hwy. 203, turn left at the first stoplight onto Old Mammoth Rd. Then turn right onto Meridian Blvd. and continue until the end of the boulevard until you reach the Juniper Springs and Eagle Lodge resort area.
