Mono Hot Springs Cabins
There’s really no place quite like Mono Hot Springs. Tucked into the High Sierra between Yosemite and Kings Canyon, our cabins give adventurous guests a true wilderness getaway with the comfort of resort amenities nearby.
These are historic mountain cabins, so you won’t find TVs, luxury hotel features, or the usual distractions here. Instead, you’ll find a quieter kind of stay built around fresh air, natural hot springs, hiking, swimming, trout fishing, boating, horseback riding, and time in the mountains. At Mono Hot Springs, you’re right on the edge of the Ansel Adams and John Muir Wilderness, with access to trails that run along the San Joaquin River and that lead to alpine lakes, granite basins, quiet meadows, nearby hot springs, and connections to the John Muir Trail and Pacific Crest Trail.
Historic cabin rates start at $169 per night, with larger cabin options available up to $229 per night. All historic cabin stays include use of the Resort Hot Springs Bathhouse and Spa, and reservations are made by phone only. For availability, rates, and booking information, call 559-325-1710.
