Top choice in Mammoth Lakes
Warm and cozy, oozing traditional ski-lodge appeal, and only steps from the base of the Panorama Gondola, this is the best address for skiers and snowboarders. Though prices come down out of ski season, at 9000ft it's a spectacular location no matter the time of year. It's a low-slung complex with a pool and hot tubs to soothe aching limbs.
The Pinnacle Suite is the fanciest room, it has a private balcony with mountain views. It sleeps eight, with four bedrooms each with their own bathroom.
