Sherwin Villas

For the price, this cabin was reasonable, though it wasn't the cleanest one we've stayed in. The kitchen and living space were adequate, but felt a little cramped for the number of people the bedrooms could sleep. The bathrooms are tiny, and the showers make it almost hard to turn around. Being so close to restaurants, the supermarket, and ski rentals was a big plus.

After a slight accident on the slopes, I was glad to get back and relax at this Sherwin Villas cabin in the village. We hadn't known what to expect, but the place had lots of character and was in good condition. The fireplace was ready to use, with plenty of wood on the patio. There was even a family room with two lazy couches and a reading lamp. The location was perfect: within a mile of the slopes and right across from the small shopping center with Jimmy's Taverna. I was so impressed that I filmed a tour and shared it with friends, something I've never done before. I'd certainly stay here again.

Unit 67 is ours to operate in this well-maintained complex. There's a pool that's great in summer, plus hot tubs and a sauna for winter, and on-site laundry. Vons is right across the street, with plenty of good places to eat within walking distance. Free shuttles meet at Meridian and Old Mammoth and can get you around town in about 15 minutes. Eagle Lodge is a five-minute ride, and a good way onto the mountain without the Main or Canyon crowds. Find us at Vacation Rentals By Aaron.

Trying Airbnb for the first time had me skeptical, but checking into unit 53 changed that. Everything we needed for the kitchen, bathroom, and bedroom was included. My kids were fascinated by Alexa and the XBOX, and the place was close to the parking lot. Most restaurants and entertainment were an easy walk away. It was an excellent choice, and I can't wait to stay again.
