  Stayed at McGee Creek Lodge for the first time this week. The room was nice, spacious and clean. That being said, I did not see any staff the entire time we were there. I needed just a few basic things like toilet paper but no one to ask. Once at the Convict lake store I asked for them there. Then we were so looking forward to enjoying a cup of coffee/pastry at McGee Creek restaurant adjacent to our room. It was temporarily closed. I wished we would have known. We would have stopped and picked up some items from the market to have in room. The nearest place to get some food would be Convict lake. The room did have a Kuerig but only 4 coffee pods, a few creamer and sugar packets. No tea or hot cocoa.... It was approximately $825.00 for 4days/3nights. Considering how much we spent I expected more .... We wont stay here again or least not until they reopen the restaurant and some staff on sight. But if you're looking for a clean, updated place to stay this is it. Just don't forget your coffee/ warm drink essentials and extra toilet paper :) !

  We made our reservations about 4 weeks ago. We've never stayed at McGee before and wanted to try it out. We called to make our reservation it was supposed to be 3 adults and two service dogs. The lady on the phone was very pleasant. Told us the ice house would be perfect so we reserved it. I gave her my credit card information. 2 weeks later one of the family member that was coming, got very ill and was in the hospital all day. That evening I called and got Pete on the phone and asked if we could please cancel our reservation that was coming up in 12 days. He said you wil be charged. I said that we can't make it because my family member is in the hospital and this is almost two weeks notice. He said it has to be a month notice to cancel or we will be charged the full amount useless someone rents out the cabin. I said oh that shouldn't be a problem. You guys are usually pretty busy and booked out. You'll probably be able to get that rented . He said okay. I'll go ahead and cancel you and send you an email. About 2 days later. I checked online and they actually blocked off Saturday. Had Friday and Sunday open. So I called and said you guys have Saturday blocked. How can someone rent it? So we can get our money back. He said oh well they just have to call us. I said if someone goes online and sees that the Saturday is blocked, they're not going to call you because they are assuming it is not available and go elsewhere! I thought wow this is pretty sheisty!! So We waited another week and checked again, same status. We called back and told them we'll go ahead and reinstate, anyway. Just leave the one family member behind. Said okay. That'll be 75 additional dollars! Wow! We could not believe this. Before we came, I emailed and asked if they had a coffee pot, if not, we were going to bring our own. Pete said it is a full kitchen and they have coffee and a coffee pot! We got there around 9:00 on Friday night. The cabin was super cute. We settled in for the night. Got up first thing in the morning. I wanted to make coffee and low and behold. Their Keurig did not work. I put the coffee in closed it turned it on? It did not filter through to make coffee. Just hot water. I tried it several more times. Still didn't work. I tried to call the number posted on the door. No luck. I emailed convict Lake. Nothing. A few hours later I received a text message from someone that worked at McGee asking me how everything was? I told them our coffee pot does not work. Can we please get a different one? And we also wanted a second robe. There was only one available in the room. We left for the day when we came back. We had a robe in front of the door but still no coffee pot. I texted again. No answer until the next day telling me to go ahead and use the coffee pot in the room. Hello, it's broke so we had to buy $8 worth of offees both days even though we just paid over $360 per night. We will definitely never stay at McGee Lodge again. I would also not recommend anyone to stay there. We ran into two different people that also said they could not get a hold of anybody that works there. It also doesn't give you instructions of how to check out. Just tells you all about how many fines you will get if there's any damage or if you check out late . I again call the number and was only able to leave a message with the lady handling the phones and she didn't even know. Then I emailed convict and the guy that texted me the first day. Again, no answer. So we Cleaned, swept stripped the beds took out the garbage made the place look better than when we got there originally and left and then called convict Lake. Spoke to Pete and told him we did know how to check out. Do we just leave? He said yes. Thank you I told him about the coffee pot situation. He said the person we were communicating with said that we were all set. Bad service all around the cabin itself and the jacuzzi was very nice though. We also had a bad experience with the Convict lake boat rental place. The guy was so rude and emba

  We come to convict lake every year and when we heard they bought McGee Creek lodge decided to give it a try. Awesome stay! We stayed in the lake view cabin. Much larger cabin then the ones at convict. More secluded but we love that. We timed it, 7 min drive door to door to convict lake. So not far at all. We spent every night relaxing in the jacuzzi with a gorgeous lake view! Judy and Phil run the whole day to day on their own. I can't believe what these two power houses can do! My cabin was very clean more then any cabin we've stayed in before. These two deserve a raise. They literally do it all and with a smile! We will definitely be back. Kids and dog loved it!!!!!

  Definitely one of the more interesting hotels I have stayed at!! My son and I were fishing Lake Crowley and opted to choose McGee Creek Lodge due to the proximity. The lodge itself doesn't have a wow factor, but inside the rooms have some really nice touches. Towel warmers, faux fireplace, etc. really added to the ambiance. We had a portable AC unit in the room which helped keep things cool, but I am not sure if it would have done the trick on a really warm day. The cafe next door was REALLY good by the way! They are connected, but I am not sure if it is the same business.

  Delicious Bakery, lovely tunes on a Sunday afternoon, and delightful service from a brand new employee who did such a good job helping me despite not getting any assistance from coworkers or boss. Lovely woman with an accent, kept her cool while smiling the entire time — she’s perhaps visiting from another country? Anyway, SHE deserves kudos for sure…I will be back!

  The bakery is a hidden gem!! Just passed by stopped for a coffee and caught by the quality of the products. Owners should advertise the backary as a standalone hidden place and attract some of the unaware traffic on 395

  The manager was super nice and changed our upstairs room to lower room since my husband had just had knee surgery. Beautiful room. ComfyBut change desk to a dresser more useful. Wish coffee shop was open. Also a small microwave would be nice.

  Love staying in the Ice House Cabin! Clean and friendly staff. Love the sound of the creek when sitting outside. Great view of Crowley Lake

  Just 15 minutes to the town of Mammoth, Mc Gee brings the feeling of the old High Sierra. Modern rustic, the newly remodeled rooms are comfortable. Hiking and fishing right out your door. Grab a coffee and baked good downstairs at the Bake Shop.

  The lodge is nestled along McGee creek at the mouth of stunning McGee Canyon. It was an old ski lodge and has that feel. It's been renovated with some nice touches. The rooms are clean, comfortable beds, great views. Eat at the Eastside bakery downstairs-such great breakfast & lunch food. The lodge proprietors are friendly and helpful-made me feel welcome every time!

  Ownership has changed and they have done a great job of making this little mountain lodge a wonderful place to stay. We have always stayed here prior to the ownership stay and have been happy. We showed up this time to new beds, which were super comfortable, upgraded rooms and bathrooms. Showers had great pressure, heated towel racks and new tv's. Prior to check in, I received emails with our check in codes and was able to go straight to our room with no problem. During our stay we needed a couple of things and Lisa from the lodge was amazing! Called me, returned text messages and made our stay amazing.
