Overall, this is our first time using VRBO and it was a pleasant enjoyable experience. The condo at unit #57 is clean and well kept. Having a separate futon-bed in the den was a nice plus. The swimming pool was nice and warm. The covered garage parking was a plus. Our family really enjoyed our time here (except for not catching much fish which was the main point of coming to Mammoth Lakes. Thank you for your accommodations!!
I will mention a few inconveniences about this condo. There is no air conditioner. So it was warm during the night. There was a small portable fan in the master bedroom which helped. For the other room and the den, we opened the windows but it was partially noisy and inconvenient and still was warm for most of the night, especially for the futon-bed in the den. In the middle of the night it got cold for one of our family members (me), but there was no extra blanket (they were all wrapped up and sealed due to COVID 19 and if you opened it up, you would get charged an extra cleaning fee), so the sleep was unpleasant for me. So either, bring your own extra blanket if you tend to sleep warm, or wear long sleeves and sweatpants, or buy a cheap blanket at the convenience store when you get here, or break the seal and use the extra blankets in the bag and pay the extra cleaning fee. I used our large beach towels as the extra blanket which kept me warm. The hot spa was not working âdue to COVID 19â which did not make sense. Be careful when you open the window shades in the condo since they are quite old and fragile-looking. When we were opening the shade to the patio glass door, the rope broke, so the shade was kept half open. We notified the property manager expecting them to fix it right away, but they said they can only fix it once we check out of the condo since they are not allowed into the condo when someone is renting the place. So our family member sleeping in the den were inconvenienced with a half-open patio glass door shade.
But besides these minor inconveniences, we enjoyed the condo and surrounding environment. Our favorite events were the fast boat ride and fishing at Lake Crowley and the electric bicycle rental at Mammoth Lakes. The boats at Mammoth Lakes and Lake Convict were too slow (also there were no fish which was a drag).
