The Bodie Hotel Details

Just outside the eastern entrance to Yosemite, in the charming town of Bridgeport, stands The Bodie Hotel. This distinctive lodging offers a memorable base for exploring the Sierra Nevada's high country. More than 140 years ago, this very hotel was carefully moved from the nearby Bodie ghost town, making it a true historical artifact. Located across from the Mono County Courthouse, this boutique seven-room property is steeped in vintage character, from its velvet wallpapers to antique furnishings. Each of the seven rooms, like 'The Prospector's Room' or 'Rosa May's Boudoir,' offers unique personality. Guests can relax in the common saloon with its Western mural and tin ceiling, or enjoy Sawtooth Range views from the large communal back patio. From here, it's a short drive to the actual Bodie State Historic Park, or you can easily access hiking trails and fishing spots in the surrounding mountains. Bridgeport itself offers various dining options after a day of exploration.
