Olancha RV Park and Motel

since there is not alot of places to stay 1/2 way between s. Tahoe and San diego, we decided to stay here at Olancha RV Park. They allow Pets to stay in TeePees or remodeled mobile homes or Rvs on site. You can also come with RV/camper or tent and stay. Beautifully and humbly decorated inside the 1 bdrm /kitchenette/FBath. This place is great! with restaurant beer/wine and homemade food at reasonable prices. breakfast lunch and dinner. The woman who runs it is phenomenal! I watched her get people in and cook dinner for 8 people all at once and serve it with a smile. The grounds are desert and mountain views, quiet and 395 was an amazingly smoothe and beautiful drive.

Surroundings were beautiful! Truly! And staff were super friendly and nice. The heaters in the beds in the tipi worked great and we had a great nights sleep even if the tent was a bit cold when we arrived. The food in the cafe was great and restrooms and showers clean! A very nice place to stay on your way to see Alabama hills / mammoth / Death Valley.

Family 10 home, which we received was new or renovated. It has salon with a fully equipped kitchen and two bad rooms, one of them we are not used. The location was perfect, between Fossil Dry falls and Mount Whitney. The pool with clean and cold water was perfect.

The cottage was clean and cool. Two separate bedrooms was great to have. And the kitchen was nice and big, with a big fridge and full stove. Nice to be able to cook a meal after a long time on the road! Oh and the pool was very refreshing!

Unique experience of staying in a tipi. Although it was a very hot day we slept well and outside pool was very refreshing after long journey. Yes, it's close to the road and therefore noisy, but was no problem for us. Restrooms were clean.
