Traveling can be tricky business, and oftentimes we get so caught up organizing that we forget about prioritizing! So here are some of the top 5 things to remember before you embark on your journey:
1) Did you purchase travel insurance?
Cancellation can be a painful process if you're not covered. Guidelines can be strict and refunds can be uncertain. It's not often that unforeseen circumstances cut your weekend short, but even the smallest issue can put a damper on your vacation, and you want to make sure you get your money back. Nomadness actually makes it easier by offering Cancel for Any Reason protection (read more about it below.)
2) Warm clothes!
A lot of us might be hanging out in SoCal where the daily highs hit past the 100's. However, in Mammoth, the temps are at a steady 75 and dropping (nighttime in the mountains is especially cool) so always make sure you have warm clothes and don't doubt the cooler temperatures!
3) Extra, extra, read all about it!
No, but seriously. Always bring extra. Although we stock all of our beautiful units with the amenities you need like fresh towels, soap, and cookware (because we're cool like that), you never know when you'll just need more. Especially if you've planned a long stay or have a large group.
4) Itineraries make the world go 'round
Seriously, save yourself the stress and make a schedule. we've already done part of the work for you by creating detailed check-in instructions for each listing and putting together an inventory list, but you need to make sure you read your instructions, map your route correctly, and plan accordingly. It's amazing how great it feels when all goes according to schedule.
5) Have FUN!
You're on vacation! So enjoy yourself. Take pictures, make s'mores, sing cheesy songs, and make traveling a priority. It can be so easy to forget the importance of a good getaway. But once you're there, it's so rewarding.

"DISCOUNTS?! SNOW?! WHAT?!"
*Wags tail*
Truth be told, it's that time of the year. It's turnaround time. Oh yeah, we said it. It's that time where summer's coming to a slow and solemn close, yet frosty hopes are picking up for the winter. At Nomadness, we're the most excited!
Snow looks promising this year, we've got great discounts going, and fall is actually a stunning time in Mammoth! We want everyone to join in on the fun by taking a peek at our discounts and thinking about their October plans (Oktoberfest at June Lake! Where'd I put my lederhosen?). Learn more about what great stuff is going on below:

Wishin' for some fishin'? No worries, we've got this week's fishing report ready for you: Temps will hover with highs in the mid-70s and lows in the upper 30s so the ideal time for catch will be early morning to late evening. Lakes have had a good turnout for fish so choose your fishing destinations carefully! And when you do hit the waters, remember to fish deep, the fish in Mammoth love the colder waters.
Here are some fishin' conditions:
Mammoth Lakes Basin: Fish are pretty deep. You can fish from the shore, but will have better luck out in the tube.
Crowley Lake: Some luck along the north arm and six bays, but stay away from McGee. No luck there.
Hot Creek: Creeks and streams have in generally slowed down in catch turnout, but you can surely find some hoppers.
Upper Owens River: Water here has cooled and is fairly clear, some big caddis hanging around before the winds start.
San Joaquin River: Waters have shallowed so fishing is week. Hoping for some better conditions in the winter!

Fine dining is an art. Both cooking and eating it! One must be in a meditative mindset in which the taste buds are wide open and the spirit is looking to be fed. So, without further ado, here are three of Mammoth's finest eating establishments:
1) Breakfast Club
Yes, like the movie. This quaint little establishment on Main St. is a gem. And don't be fooled by its subtlety, inside its doors waft the delectable smells of bacon and biscuits. And every dish is served in a hearty portion!
2) The Mogul
Log cabin on the inside, party on the inside. Not only does this joint have crazy good happy hour specials, but its got thick enough cuts of Porterhouse and filet to leave your mouth watering even once you're out of there!
3) Mountainside Bar & Grill
Perfect for family-friendly dining or for a casual date, this chalet-style dining establishment is located just at the base of the mountain and boasts a lovely deck where you can enjoy the fresh mountain temperatures.
