I was assigned to a cottage that was not cleaned from the previous visitors. I had to return back to the Mammoth Lodge to get a new cottage. There is a lack of attention to detail and communication with cleaning staff and administrative staff. The new cottage was acceptable and clean.

Great property! Clean and tidy cabins. Our family of seven fit into the larger cabin really well. I loved that there wasn’t any WiFi or televisions. The trails near by were lovely. And I was honestly shocked at how close the cabin was to the historic entrance. Still really thankful for the short commute. Great place to stay!
