We stayed here in May (2013) after spending a few hours in Bodie. The room and grounds were clean and well kept. I got to enjoy the patio sittiing area right outside our room, all while listening to the comforting sounds of the small stream/brook running in the back of the establishment. Please be aware that this hotel is 7... More

The food is excellent, and so is the atmosphere. The people who work there are very friendly and will give the a blow-by-blow historical tour of the place. Used to be an old Stage Stop. My husband and I were there on NUMEROUS occasions. We highly recommend it! Good if you like spooks too!

We stayed in Virginia Creek Settlement only for one night in September. The reason for choosing this place was its location – it was the nearest place to Bodie and we wanted to visit the ghost town early in the morning. The suite we stayed in was nice and cozy, overall feeling strongly reminded us of European bed and breakfast... More

We stayed in the room above the restaurant. It was small and had a private balcony. It had a shared bath and a cozy commons room w/ a small flat screen tv and refrigerator. Will the space was small it was very comfortable and clean. We had no neighbors to share the bath with and that might have made the... More

Stayed three nights here - two in a self catering cabin and one in a motel-style room. The site is quite small but well located next to a stream (our cabin was right beside it) and attracts a good variety of wildlife.The cabin and room were nice in a rustic way, although any elaborate cooking in the cabin would be...

This place is adorable. Nestled in the mountains, there is a beautiful creek on the property. The owners clearly take a great deal of pride in their establishment and have done everthing they can to make their rooms and property comfortable, cute and clean. The most important thing to know about this place is that the family who owns it,... More

The setting and layout of the Virginia Creek Settlement - beautiful and interesting - were a welcome change from the (relatively) characterless motel complexes we've stayed in before. We specifically asked for motel room one, which is the John Wayne room. He supposedly stayed here once and the wood-panelled room doesn't seem to have been updated since. Which we were... More

Just got back from this trip yesterday and had to write about it. My boyfriend had been wanting to expose me to the joys of camping and researched long and hard for a place close to both Bodie and Mono Lake. He came across this place and got us lot 3 for five us. 2 couples and a child for... More

We were looking forward to visiting Bodie State Park, and therefor decided to stay close to the state park for one night. After checking out the overpriced hotels in Lee Vining I was happy to stumble onto Virginia Creek Settlement. We stayed in room 1 (John Wayne room) and only experienced one drawback: no airconditioning - we knew this when... More
