WHERE TO STAY in MAMMOTH

There are many many options to stay in Mammoth and many reasons to make a weekend of it.

Both the Mammoth Mountain Inn and The Village will be offering a reduced rate when you call and mention the Oberon/Hallada wedding. For both of these, call 1(800)MAMMOTH or 1(800)626-6684
(But I believe you have to book by April 12th to get the reduced rates)

Accommodations: The "Mammoth Mountain Inn"
http://www.mammothmountain.com/plan/lodging/mmi/index.cfm
(this is where the reception will be)
as well as "The Village"
http://www.mammothmountain.com/plan/lodging/village/index.cfm
(this is where the informal post-reception party will be)


The "Swiss Chalet" is in town, walking distance to the Village, and is offering an even further reduced rate for those that mention our wedding. This is not part of a "package" The Swiss Chalet is where Dan and I practically live, in the summertime. The manager, Cary, knows us and adores us. Their summer rates are usually $75 weekdays/ $85 weekends, but she said she will honor a $65 weekday/ $75 weekend rate for our friends/family that call in and say they’re coming up for our wedding! This place isn’t fancy, but it’s quaint and is the BEST location for the weekend’s events. WALKING distance to the Village, where we’ll be partying…

(When booking your room, consider this. The Mammoth Mountain Inn is a short drive up a mountain road to the base of the Gondola. It’s not a far drive by any means, but you do have to drive / or cab it from there to the Village. The reception will most likely end by 4pm or so… then we’ll regroup again after some craziness for a casual dinner around 6-7pm and continue partying at Hennessy’s in the Village. The Mammoth Mountain Inn is a great place to stay especially if you have families, but please consider that if you plan to drink at the Village party you still need someone to drive back up the hill. The Village rooms are also great, just pricier.)

If you are thinking more of a longer getaway, and would like to rent a condo, there are multiple of off season rentals. I know of this one in particular.
Summer rates tend to be pretty reasonable!
