Creek & Ember

Barbecuing on a mountain-view deck with pine-backed Eastern Sierra peaks as your backdrop – that's the kind of evening this Mammoth Lakes townhome was made for. Inside, a stone fireplace anchors the living room and pulls the whole group together after a day on the slopes or trails. A private hot tub tucked among aspen trees, a children's reading nook, and easy access to Snowcreek Golf Course round out a home that earns its keep in every season.

Home truths:
* You'll find two sets of stairs here – one to reach the entrance and one inside the home – so it may not suit guests with limited mobility.
* Due to this home's location, we recommend hiring a car to get the most out of your stay. Snow tires or chains are required for winter months.
* There are two covered garage spaces plus an additional driveway spot, though the garage has a 7'6" height clearance, so taller vehicles or large SUVs may not fit inside.
*One well-behaved dog is welcome to join you upon request.
* The spa, pool, and sauna facilities are community-managed and their hours and availability can change without notice – worth checking with your host before you arrive if those are central to your plans.
* If you're bringing ski or snowboard boots, you'll need to leave them outside or in the garage – wearing them inside isn't permitted, as the home sits above neighbouring units.
* You'll have access to the spa and clubhouse sit a five-minute walk away.
