Location: Snowcreek, Mammoth Lakes, Mammoth Mountain, Gold Country & High Sierra, California, USA (Near Los Angeles) View Map
Accommodations: Condominium, 3 Bedrooms + Loft, 3 Baths (Sleeps 8-11)
Mammoth Lakes is a little slice of paradise that has something for everyone, every day of the year. The large ski resort that produces more fresh powder than other neighboring resorts year after year often attracts people initially, but the small town charm, excellent dining, fishing, hiking, climbing, biking, sledding, shopping and natural hot springs is what makes people feel at home and fall in love with Mammoth Lakes.
This 3+ bedroom with loft is happily situated in a low density complex surrounded by meadows and mountains. The property has a large meadow and creek for walking/hiking. The condo boasts views of Mammoth Mountain from the bedroom windows so you can check out the weather in the morning on the mountain without even leaving the bed. On the days when you choose to go to the mountain you can use the free and fast shuttle service to the mountain with a stop conveniently located out in front.
For the little ones and adults that don't want to grow up yet, there is sledding directly across from the condo in peak conditions. Although the ski season is sublime, they often say that people come to Mammoth for the winters and stay for the summers. The summers are filled with fun family activities: hikes to Rainbow Falls and Devil's Postpile, fishing, rock climbing and bouldering, swimming, visiting the natural hot springs, golfing, biking, shopping, relaxing, canoeing, picnicking, backpacking, camping, fine dining, and viewing wildlife. Come and enjoy the beauty and splendor of Mammoth Lakes in our condo, the best kept secret that our family has been enjoying for decades.

Why the Owner Chose Snowcreek
Snowcreek is the best complex happily situated in the best ski resort area, Mammoth Lakes.
The Unique Benefits at this Condominium
While staying at this property I enjoy taking long walks in the neighboring meadow and creek at this low density complex, enjoying evening soaks in the jacuzzi and sauna after a long day on Mammoth Mountain, using the free shuttle system to and from the town/mountain, riding bikes with my family on the bike way, and lounging with friends and family by the fire.
Mammoth's FREE shuttle service almost is close enough to be considered door to door, but it's far enough to never hear the sounds of shuttles on Minaret Rd. The shuttle service is also easy to use!
Mono Lake is gradually being refilled to return it back to it's level in the middle of the 1900s. The lovely tufas that you can visit now will soon be covered. Be sure to check out this beautiful ge
The "Happies" and the "Sads" are bouldering sites that are excellent for beginners and great in the Fall, Winter and Spring. Ask the owner if you'd like to check out these areas.
Another excellent, world class bouldering location. Best in the Fall, Winter and Spring.
An excellent bouldering destination in the late Spring, Summer and early Fall
A great natural hot creek that is best in the late spring, summer, and early fall.
