    Cabin 9 bedroom
    Kim K.

    Well we came back and are still so happy with this amazing family owned place! David, the owner, greeted us upon arrival. Gave us keys to our little cabin and sent us on our way. We stayed in cabin 9. We love this cabin as it's nestled in the back of the property amongst the tall evergreens and it feels just a little more private than the other cabins. A small stream runs just behind it and flows into Reverse Creek just a short walk across the meadow. There are several lovely sitting areas along the creek. It's exactly as we remembered. This time the weather was cooler so we appreciated the fireplace (heater). We stocked our fridge. Unpacked our belongings and settled in for our week long anniversary getaway. The cabin is well stocked with everything you could ever imagine. Pots, pans, dishes, utensils, baking sheets, towels, soap, cleaning supplies, extra blankets, etc. They even have a BBQ out on the small private deck of each cabin, which we love!! If you don't see it, ask. We needed an extension cord for our phones and David had us covered. You do need to bring your own shampoo and conditioner. Of course food is a must and I highly recommend bringing a cooler and shopping in your home town and bringing it up as the store in June is pricey. This is definitely one of the best lodging options in the loop for the price. Located in between June/Gull Lake and Silver Lake. If you haven't read my previous review, check it out.

    We weren't able to stay at the cabins this year, this picture was taken at Virginia Lakes next to the store.

    We have stayed at Reverse Creek Lodge Many times because it's just absolutely beautiful , the back of the loop, cabins are very old, but fun to stay in, you are in cabins, for God sakes ,in the woods with lots of deer ,wild turkey, and such .right around the corner is waterfalls during the spring, which are absolutely stunning, it's been family owned by a beautiful and wonderful family, notice the picture on the website,- it's 15 minutes either direction from the cabins to hit the whole loop, perfect location, it's in the colder part of the loop so make sure you bring warm clothing. but in my opinion, it's the best part you're in the trees lots of trees. Sincerely, Chris Deets.

    We love coming to the Reverse Creek Lodge! The A frame cabins are so cozy and have the best views! You can hear the creek from the balcony which is so nice! This time we went with a couple of friends and we all stayed in the A Frame cabins making this trip even more memorable! David and his family are always so kind and attentive. The rooms are not remodeled but I think it's what I love most abut them! Can't wait to come back!

    My girlfriend and I booked a last minute cabin at reverse creek. Upon finding the website we had the expectation of it being a good rate for the area but were not expecting much since the website and photos were outdated. We were pleasantly surprised to find our cabin to be everything we could possibly need in a very cute and quaint setting. From the time of our arrival we were treated warmly by the staff, they were all nice and accommodating. The room was very clean and was supplied with lots of fresh towels, dishes, toiletries and even a bbq. A cozy fireplace kept the place warm at night and we always had hot water on demand. It's very close to June lake resort, a couple miles from downtown June and about 30min drive to mammoth ski resort. The only downfall we had was when it came to finding rides into town or to mammoth. There is no Uber/Lyft and Taxis were about $100 each way to mammoth. Also, there is no longer a shuttle service in town so that was not an option. Be prepared to have your own car and have a DD! We had an awesome stay and would recommend to friends and family looking for accommodations in the greater Mammoth area. Thanks Reverse Creek for a great stay. -Thomas & Allison

    Such a fun trip this last weekend at Reverse Creek Lodge. My family and I stayed four nights and five days. The cabin is really nice and has everything you would need at home. Even cable and WiFi if your into that. David is a great host and tells you "if you need anything just ask. " Some tips would be to get a shower mat for the tub it's pretty slippery when soapy. The stair case on the cabin was very sketchy, so easy when waking up or having the kids run around. Don't forget your shampoo! There is a store within walking distance just in case.

    Reverse Creek Lodge IS the place to stay when in the June Lake/ Yosemite area. It is the perfect spot! Our cabin was roomy and clean. The grounds are well maintained and the creek is made extra dreamy with the beautiful benches placed adjacent to it. The beds are comfortable and the kitchen being fully stocked with everything you need to prepare and store food was a true bonus! Definitely will be staying here again. David and his family have put their heart into this place and it shows.

    3 1/2. I like this place. The cabins are rustic and small, maybe just a little cramped depending on your level of comfort. We stayed in one of the single cabins. We weren't sure before we left how stocked the cabins would be; they say on the website, cabins come with a full kitchen and bath, no heat, but a gas fireplace. We packed light and in couple ways we were up a "reverse" creek (Har Har, I know). So I am writing this to help the next person know what to bring. Kitchen is well-stocked. Unlike some cabins, though, there are no condiments or spices, only salt and pepper. So bring sugar for coffee (There is a coffee machine with filters). Everything for basic dinner is included: measuring cups, knives, toaster, and tea kettle. There's also a small grill on the porch. Bathroom - only bar soap. No shampoo, etc. It was stocked with towels and had a good bathtub. Because the place is small, the gas fireplace provides plenty of heat; however, there was only one big electric blanket. I'm not a fan of wires in my blanket. I would suggest bringing a blanket if you want to wrap up with the cocoa. The staff was very kind and helpful. And the price was pretty typical ($100 night in fall 09). I would suggest this as a nice place for a small getaway for a couple or family (in the bigger cabins), but not a place for a special trip like a honeymoon or romantic vacation. The grounds were a little unkempt, but that's no big deal up in the mountain. The scenery around is quiet and peaceful. June Lake is a wonderful place to retreat to, the lakes and mountains, great people and skiing in the winter, make it one of my favorite all time places.

    wonderful experience, highly recommend this cute and cozy family owned lodge! Great Pricing! We will definitely be staying there again! TIP: Everything in town closes pretty early and options are limited so make sure and go grocery shopping before your trip or in Mammoth to supply the cabin with food, barbecue , snacks and wine etc. The cabin provides everything you need , Stove , Oven, utensils, China, gas barbecue ECT. Also I highly recommend calling reverse Creek Lodge directly for reservations ! They will most likely give you a better deal then you can get on hotel websites online and personally I prefer to make sure family owned businesses don't get cut on the profits. David the owner And Phillip the front desk guy were a please to work with , they seem like a wonderful family . I found this little gem on hotels.com then cross check them on yelp, my fiancé and I couldn't be happier with the experience. The cute little A-frame cabin faced the creek so we had the pleasure of the beautiful scenery and sounds of the water hitting the rocks down below. Personally I prefer staying in June Lake because it's only about 25 minutes from Mammoth snowboarding and it really makes you feel like you're away from all the hustle and bustle of the city. This lodge is so peaceful and serene. The owners also provide a beautiful equipped new gas barbecue on the deck of every Cabin/A frame home. They also supply fridge, coffee maker, utensils, plates, Cups, tons of white clean towels, soap , lots of blankets, hangers & dishwashing soap. To my surprise and delight The cabin also has flatscreen TV, DVD player, Netflix and cable channels with tons of options & YES WIFI !! FUN TIP: The double eagle resort and spa is just down the street and you can pay $20 for use of the spa amenities, pool, Jacuzzi!!!!

    This was our view this morning at Reverse Creek Lodge.

    I'm sitting in cabin 19 right now and it's a shame that we are leaving in the morning. My dad and I have come to the Sierras every May and October for over 20 years. We have stayed at many places up here and I'm sorry that we have only recently given Reverse Creek Lodge a try. We stayed here May 2014 and now 2015. We would have booked last October, but my wife and I had our first baby (Olive Maria Faustina)! These cabins are very clean, comfortable, and are welcoming after a day of fishing. The scenery is beautiful and the cabins aren't crammed too closely together. The fish cleaning facility is great. The family that owns and runs this place are very friendly and accommodating. They are top notch and this place wouldn't be what it is under any other management. Tomorrow, it is goodbye for us, but we'll be back.

    See all

    As someone who has fallen in love with June Lake and hopes to one day call this beautiful part of…read morethe Eastern Sierra home, it hurts to write this review. This was only my second stay at Double Eagle Resort & Spa, and the difference from my first visit is night and day. What was once a well-kept mountain retreat has clearly declined under current ownership, leaving us with one of the most disappointing and concerning lodging experiences we've had. The property shows serious neglect. Mouse droppings were everywhere outside our room and inside on the carpet too. We literally had to sweep them aside just to get comfortable. Add in prominent water stains on the ceilings, dirty baseboards and floors around the doors, stained towels with yellowish marks, and overall grime, and it crossed into health hazard territory. We booked specifically for the spa amenities. The indoor pool water was a murky green, the hot tub area was slimy and filthy, and both the pool/spa facilities and female sauna were closed with "maintenance" signs that had apparently been there for weeks or months. This is inexcusable at a resort that promotes these as key features with free guest access. Broken window screens also let in swarms of mosquitoes, making the room uncomfortable. We made multiple attempts to resolve these issues visiting the front desk repeatedly, trying to speak with the owner, and giving them time to call back. The response was poor. One employee, Martin at the front desk, seemed more annoyed by our complaints than interested in helping. Other staff seemed polite but stretched thin, which points to bigger problems with management and resources. Double Eagle was a highlight of June Lake. Charging premium rates while delivering filthy conditions, closed amenities, and unresponsive service isn't right. We've documented it all with photos and will be pursuing remedies. If you care about cleanliness, safety, and actually enjoying the spa/pool facilities, look elsewhere. We still love June Lake deeply and will be back to the area but not here until meaningful improvements are made. Strongly not recommended.

    I was a little nervous about staying due to the negative reviews... but we had fantastic time!

The creek that runs through the resort, as well as the little pond were beautiful. We never used the gym or spa, but briefly walked through and it looked very nice! It is for sure an older funkier place, that's part of the charm.

The rooms are actually very big and comfortable. We had a downstairs room, off in the corner, with windows and a large living space and kitchen area. We couldn't get over how spacious the bedroom was and how comfortable it was for two people. The bed was super soft. Bathroom was clean and had plenty of towels. Soft towels too! A nice little couch and a three person kitchen table. Truly a large room great for when you'll be staying a few days. It was all of the little touches that made this room great as well. The fan worked and didn't make any noise. The heater worked great. The kitchen was equipped with a large fridge, sink, microwave, Toaster, and four burner stove. It was nice that they had cups, plates, bowls, and silverware. Honestly, anything you would need to eat in. We ended up eating out pretty much every meal because we wanted to enjoy trying the local businesses, but should I ever come back I would definitely pack enough to be able to cook here because it was a great set up. Tyler made check in and check out a breeze. He was nice and didn't give us much hassle when we needed to extend our check out by 30 minutes. He was very friendly from the get and insured we had everything we needed. We appreciated his kind demeanor as we checked in after hours of traveling. The location is five stars itself because you're dead in the center of June Lake downtown with restaurants on each side of you and right behind this motel is the very popular June brewing company. The location was walkable to everything we needed. We also appreciated that they had about a 10 car parking lot. When parking spots fill up, you are welcome to park on the street no issues. We felt that the rooms were pretty soundproof from outside activity but when you are on the bottom floor, we were at the mercy of the people above us. Unfortunately, the people above us were pretty loud, but that's just the way the dicerolls sometimes. I'm sure had we went to the motel staff they maybe would've helped but it just seemed Like too much to ask because really guests should be more courteous that we don't have to tell on them or confront them. The only real negative about being on the bottom floor, but I do prefer the bottom floor as it is easy in and out/not having to carry your bags up the icy stairs etc. The good news is this downtown area is pretty quiet and most of the businesses are closed by 8/9 PM so even if there are loud people, everyone seems to be in their rooms and winding down earlier than if you were in a big city so it was still pretty comfortable and reasonable overall. I would definitely recommend this motel when staying in June Lake, and should I come back up here soon this would definitely be my #1 choice.

First the cons, the stairs up to the door are a bit…read morerickety.The hand rail needs replacing, it is not sturdy enough to use if you need to hold on to go up the stairs. The cabin is a nice size for a couple, or maybe a small family, but to sleep 10?, I think it would be cramped. The fridge is a very small dorm room sized one. We could only get the front burners on the electric stove to work, and we didn't try the oven. The heater in the bathroom does not stay on,which is not great, when you go to take a shower and it's a VERY cold morning. One of the provided towels seemed to have some hard, blue stuff stuck to it. The toilet is...tilted. This is a little disconcerting if you have to get up to pee during the night and almost fall off of it! The bed in the downstairs bedroom is soft. VERY soft....and sinks into the middle. My husband and I basically kept rolling into each other all night and had to fight for space. The futon in the living room did not make for a very comfortable couch at all, and would take a SOUND sleeper to be able to sleep on it. The heater in the living room area seems to work well, and we didn't need the one in the bedroom as it seems to stay pretty warm if you keep the door closed. We were unable to use the wood burning stove as they only provide wood during the winter months, and we didn't feel like buying any. It would be great if we could have used it though. It got down into the low 40's to high 30's at night. The whole place needs updating as it looks like it came straight out of the 50's, but not in a cool, kitchy way. The railing on the deck...we get that nobody is suppose to climb on it,but when we even touched it, the entire railing wobbled Also, the screen on one of the doors was off the track, and no matter how many times we fixed it, it was just difficult to use. The tiny TV, had a sound restrictor on it, or something, as it was very quiet and sometimes impossible to hear. The remote did not work to turn it off or on. Now, the pros. The view of the mountains, out the back is beautiful. The deck, provided with some VERY old, plastic chairs and one lounger, was ok. Would have been nice to have a little table as well, so we had a secure place to put our coffee cups, during breakfast in the morning. The kitchen, though dated, is well stocked with dishes, utensils, cookware and cleaning supplies. There are barbeques, but no shade or places to eat or sit while bbqing. There IS WiFi, and the code was provided right in the cabin. It worked pretty well the entire time. The bathtub was large enough for me to stretch out in and soak in. There is a microwave, coffee maker and toaster also provided. The place was clean, but very dated. In summary, this is a housekeeping cabin. If you are looking for maid service, room service or other hotel resort type ammenities, this is NOT the place for you. This is more basic. We will consider returning IF some things, such as the bed, stairs and railings are fixed.

Instead, when we arrived, we got a 10 minute lecture about how there is no maid service, we can't use the wood burning stove, there's no paper towels for the kitchen (at least there's East German surplus toilet paper on hand), there's a drought in California, leave your car unlocked because of bears (what?), keep the curtains closed basically always, sweep before you leave, and on and on and on. Oh, and the entry steps and landing (which is 6 feet up) - I had to pray they wouldn't crumble beneath me because the wood is so rotten - who inspects these places? Helen Keller at night? I was actually nervous every time I would enter and exit the place - what a relaxing resort-style vacation this turned out to be. Full kitchen? Look closely at the picture on the website - there is a tiny dorm-sized refrigerator that didn't freeze water after three days of it sitting in the freezer section - and that's after I spent two hours of my vacation defrosting it. There's hardly any room for one person in the kitchen, and if someone wants something, it's a total hassle to get it. And the luxurious bed - my wife would blink and the mattress bounced so much I nearly flew out of the bed. Add to that the 1960's blanket made of who knows how much polyester and you have resort-level romance in the making. Not to mention the boot-camp instructions on the wall which read, "on your last day don't strip your bed" - what? So they can see if the sheets really need to be changed or just straightened out for the next guest? Ewwww. The picture shows a comfortable looking couch, but ours was an unyielding uncomfortable futon covered with another nasty old blanket. I couldn't get comfortable while watching the 17 inch old-fashioned TV. Also, no Wi-Fi - lemme check. Yup. It's 2014. Need I say more. The entire "resort" is in disrepair and shabby. Weed growth between buildings. Parking area nothing but dirt and stones (not gravel). Solitary BBQ sitting across parking area with no seating or picnic table or anything. I like how Wikipedia puts it: "In North American English, the term "resort" is now also used for a self-contained commercial establishment which attempts to provide for most of a vacationer's wants while remaining on the premises, such as food, drink, lodging, sports, entertainment, and shopping. The term may be used to identify a hotel property that provides an array of amenities and typically includes entertainment and recreational activities". Now, take the opposite of Wiki's definition and you have The Four Season's June Lake.
