Snowcreek Resort - Mammoth Lakes, California

Excellent resort with great amenities. We've stayed at Snowcreek numerous times and it's always been great. Quiet and family friendly. The views are fantastic and the grounds immaculate. We suggest you rent through Snowcreek in case there is an issue with your unit.

Fairly mediocre accommodations. Fireplace barely shows any flame (zero ambience). Poorly furnished kitchen (even for a rental). Despite the unit not being occupied the previous night, we weren’t offered access until 4:00 and with a 10:00 checkout the last morning (also not booked after us) we decided to leave the night before. Typically we’ve had a good experience with other Snow Creek properties, this was the exception. We will be more circumspect before renting at Snow Creek in the future.

Snowcreek Resort is a beautiful condo village. The neighborhood is conveniently located close to town but quiet and serene. The first condo we stayed in was #1302 Timber Creek Place. Just lovely and had all the amenities you could ask for including full kitchen stocked with plates, glassware, utensils, papertowels, dishwashing soap, etc. It did have 2 flights of stairs to walk up to get to the main floor, but that is typical of condos in Mammoth. ||We really enjoyed our stay except for an emergency which happened, prompting us to have to change condos. In the middle of the night, our neighbors woke us up in a panic that water was leaking through the roof of their condo, possibly from a shared pipe in our wall (our condo was above theirs). We did not see anything on our side. But we both reported it to the condo emergency line and no one showed up to help until 8 am the next day! It turned out they had a terrible leak and it flooded their condo and did a huge amount of damage. I was really surprised that even in a dire emergency like this, no one came for several hours.||However in the morning, I was contacted by the condo rental company and they offered to let us change condos and discount our stay by $200, since there would be plumbers and workers coming in and out of the condo for at least a few days, and water had been shut off. They let us choose from 2 available units, and we decided on #1441 Boulder Creek Road, and that condo was just as nice as the first one, with all the same amenities. It even had a fan over the bed, which was welcome since we were visiting during an extreme heat wave and the condos don't have air conditioning.||Both condos were in the new section # 7 which I believe is only a year or two old. If it weren't for the water flood I would give it 5 stars but I knocked a star off because of the delayed response to an emergency situation. I just expected better for such a luxury resort.

We just spent 4 nights at Snowcreek #625 and everything was excellent! The view from the patio is beautiful (mountains, trees, creek running through the property). The condo is spacious with modern upgrades. The kitchen is well-equipped with excellent appliances (we always cook on vacation and have rarely had a kitchen this nice in a rental). There is a nice desk area in the 2nd bedroom if you need to do work. The next-door neighbors are really nice. We felt very fortunate to stay in such a beautiful place, we hope to stay there again soon!

The description does NOT match the unit. It clearly stated 2 steps up and 2 steps down and ground level. This was not a ground level unit which was problematic for a few of us with disabilities. The twin loft beds were basically level with the railing of the loft so if you had little kids like we did it didn’t work well. We had to pull the mattresses off the bed frame. The overall quality of the unit was run down.

Great condo! Modern and clean. Huge kitchen and living area. Everything you need to cook meals. 2 bedrooms, each with a full bathroom. Loft with 3 beds also with a full bathroom. The loft was perfect for my teenage son and friends. The only thing is the condo is a bit of a walk to the shuttle stop that takes you to the mountain. We opted to drive to the mountain instead of walking to the stop with all our ski gear. We had no trouble finding parking though so it was easy. We would 100% stay here again. The layout was fantastic for 2 couples and 3 or 4 teenagers upstairs. Location in town was great too. 3 min drive to Vons and center of town.

I used to come here as a child in the 90s and 00s and have the best memories. We decided to return with our kids. We stayed in 776 Fairway. We found the place decent, although quite outdated. A lot of the decorations were not child friendly but easy to remove. The furniture had seen better days especially the couch and chair which were quite caved in and dingy. The washer and dryer were nice to have, but the dryer was not working so we had a pile of damp clothes.

We tried to go to the Athletic Center to check out the facilities and were met with rude staff and an overcrowded, smelly place of small children in martial arts. Never found the pool. We used the hot tub next to our place and it was decent. Construction was happening all over the complex and we were constantly listening to saws and smelling the Bobcat driving by throughout the day.

Not exactly the quiet, relaxing stay we were hoping for.

As a VRBO Property Owner (for 15+ years), I am fairly particular with any rental I choose for a stay away from home.

This Condo was very clean and ready for our arrival (ahead of scheduled check-in), which is a plus. It had plenty of room, providing personal space in separate bedrooms and a loft - each having it's own bathroom as well.

I would definitely stay here again, as there would be no question as to the standard of cleanliness and knowing it can accommodate two families easily and comfortably.

The only suggestion: Provide extra blankets and kitchen items like aluminum foil, storage baggies etc ...for the unexpected; which happens on vacations.

Otherwise this is a gem!
