Welcome to Lake Front Cabins! Nestled in the heart of June Lake, we’re a short walk from downtown, next door to the marina, and a quick drive to Yosemite’s eastern gates (seasonal).
Our mountain town roots stretch back over the property’s 100 years of operation, the feel here is laid back and communal. Join us for bluebird skies, winter powder days, backcountry access, basin and range expanses, friendly folks, and some of the best trout fishing in CA.
The Loop Cabin is a private, standalone cabin (~620 sq. ft.) equipped with two bedrooms (1 queen, 2 twin beds), living room (with a sofa bed that can sleep 2 more guests), 3/4 bath (including a small shower, toilet, and sink), kitchen, and dining space. The cabin is adjacent to the motel-style units on the property. Enjoy a communal courtyard perfect for exchanging trail stories over a bonfire and BBQ meal (gas or charcoal, dealer’s choice).
Give us a holler any time with questions about trip planning, area recommendations, or anything you may need during your stay. Beyond that, we give you the space to enjoy your cabin and the surrounding nature in peace.
We're just a stone’s throw from downtown June Lake’s shops and restaurants, with easy access to the June Lake Loop, June Lake and Gull Lake, June Mountain, the Owens River Valley, Reversed Peak, Carson Peak, and beyond. Also in the neighborhood, you’ll find:
Yosemite National Park (Eastern entrance): 30 minutes
Mammoth & Mammoth Mountain: 35 minutes
Devils Postpile National Monument: 55 minutes
Mono Lake: 20 minutes
Wild Willy’s Hot Springs: 35 minutes
Given June Lake’s remote location, we encourage guests to reach us by car (and remember to bring those snow chains and roadside emergency supplies for the ride up!). Many of our guests enjoy walking downtown (a stone’s throw from the property) or riding bikes around the area.
Before you book, read on to learn about a couple of property quirks to make sure we’re the right fit for your outdoor adventure:
We love hosting dogs, so let us know if you plan to bring your furry friend(s) along and we'll send some extra info your way. Our pet fee is $20 per dog per night (for up to the first 3 nights, then after your third night, dogs stay free!). We can accommodate a maximum of two dogs (and dogs only at this time), but get in touch with us if you have a special circumstance.
While we’re just over 500 feet from the edge of June Lake, we do not have beach or lakefront access despite what our name suggests (we're new owners in the process of renaming the property). We’re separated by a buffer zone that’s operated by the National Forest, which means it’s public land and yours to traverse, though it’s typically marshy or snowy depending on the season.
When we say "historic,” we mean historic. Our digs stretch back a century, and sometimes, our “old-school” shows--winter nights can get chilly, and you may see an occasional four-to-eight-legged friend around the property or grounds. We like to think of ourselves as an extension of the greater Eastern Sierra ecosystem, so it’s all part of the fun.
While we do offer WiFi, the speed of our Internet *may* take twenty years off your life (although we promise the restorative power of nature will put those years right back on). While we can assure you we’ve spent countless hours with every single ISP in the area and offer up the best we possibly can, don’t expect to Zoom into meetings or (or much of anything, internet-wise) while you enjoy your stay in the great outdoors.
For the safety of our guests, we maintain outdoor security cameras to monitor wildlife visits, fire risk, hazardous elements, and other safety protocols.
Tioga Pass closes seasonally from mid-November through mid-May, during which time the only access to June Lake from the western Sierras is through the I-80 pass around Lake Tahoe or south of the Sierras near Los Angeles. You’ll want to build in extra driving time for fall, winter, and spring visits.
Occasionally, Highways 395 (North-South route from LA to Reno) and 158 (June Lake Loop) will close due to heavy snowfall.
During winter, please be advised to carry snow chains in your vehicle to comply with CalTrans chain requirements and potential inclement weather.
Fire season typically falls between summer and early fall in the area, so air quality may be unhealthy during this time, particularly among sensitive groups.
We hope you enjoy this neck of the woods as much as we do. Welcome to June Lake!
