My family and I were a massive group of two cars— driving from Irvine, CA to Mammoth Mountain on a Friday evening in July at 8pm —it goes without saying, there were VERY sparse sites available. We called the recreation coordinator at Twin Lakes to figure out where to go and Trudy was absolutely wonderful. She helped us with finding a space last minute with very minimal availability. We were all stressed because we had come so far and it was late, but she did not let us down! She contacted various camp hosts for us, despite poor phone connection, and figured out which site had space to accommodate our group. She gave us very clear instructions including how to pay for the site and how to get there, . There’s no way to reserve a spot that late, and it is first come first serve, so she also gave us some backup options if all else failed. We would have been completely lost without her. Thank you Trudy @ Inyo Recreation. As for the campground, we had an AMAZING weekend!! We took our inflatable boat out on the water, and barbecued by the lake. There was even a free trolley ride with a historic story-time on the way to the lake it was very fun for kids and adults. The campground was spacious. We enjoyed the gorgeous trees and beautiful trails. Clean bathrooms and a nice convenience store on site. I would definitely recommend. A great place for families, and everyone else!

Great camp sites. Friendly host and friendly people at the convenience store located within walking distance from all the sites. Shower price is a bit steep, but convenience is always pricey. Bathrooms were cleaned daily.

The rooms at the lodge are comfortable but small and don't have attached bathrooms/toilets. The cottages are a better option for a family. The lodge itself is a 100 years old and quaint. Love the atmosphere and ambiance, and you couldn't beat the location or the views of mammoth mountain and the surrounding areas.

Bathrooms where very clean and well kept, trash taken out twice a day. The camp host came by often and asked how we where doing, their black lab Buddy was super friendly and they walked him by having him off leash walking/trotting next to the golf cart. He was very cute. Very dog friendly and very nice. Cheap sites for weekend, honor policy with firewood, $8 or $30 for 4 bundles. Wood lasted all weekend with extra.

Stayed here two nights with friends & family in our tents. The waterfall generates enough white noise that you feel that you are the only ones camping. Even though it was booked solid we never heard a single sound from another campsite. USE THE BEAR BOXES!! Our first night we were woken up to the sound of one trying to break a bear 🐻 box open. Although you may not see them, they are EVERYWHERE & are pretty good are being very quiet. The water is nice & clear as no motorized watercraft is allowed. My kids really enjoyed the freedom of being able to pop their Paddleboards in the water & cruise around exploring. We will definitely be back again.

Amazing campground! Great views, clean and spacious campsites, bathrooms are well maintained, perfect location to opt outside and walk around, fish, and enjoy the beautiful outdoors! Views from the bridge at dawn and dusk are absolutely surreal and breathtaking...definitely would return here!

Awesome campground with beautiful waterfall and a ton of birding opportunities. I had 2 different campsites here and there were in great condition. I really liked that there is flushing toilets and running water spigots nearby. The sites were well spaced apart and I had a lot of privacy between my neighbors. The general offers canoe and kayak rentals and there is plenty of opportunities to hike within near the campground and fish. I would highly recommend to anyone wanting to camp in the Mammoth Lakes area. Got some great star photography in too. Surprisingly not too buggy given the proximity to the lake.
