There's trails, horses, Grant Lake, Silver Lake, Gull Lake, campgrounds, and a very nice drive. Our first stop is always to say hello to all of the horses and mules. We park on the side of the road and pet them. Next, we stop at silver lake since there's some parking spots. We like to walk across the street to the lake and watch the ducks. Some people like to pull up at reverse creek but stay safe crossing! It's just a great scenic route for something to do and see.

Make sure you stop at the beautiful (and historic) Mono County Courthouse on Main Street. Then walk behind it and check out the creepy old jail building (free/open to explore). Both are definitely worth the stop! We stayed at the Redwood Motel which was affordably priced and very clean and comfortable (with friendly service). Saw a few restaurant options in the area.

There's also a fantastic little downtown area that frequently holds events on the weekend. There's so much to do here and they always seem to be doing something fun. If you're planning on touring the Mammoth, Bodie or Twin Lakes area, this town is a must for stopping. The gas stations are equipped with RV dump sites and water fill-ups, and the downtown area has plenty of sporting goods stores where you can stock up on fishing and hunting supplies. Right in the heart of downtown is the CHP office. The people seem friendly, so you're in good hands here. I'm so glad I got to stop here myself and see it firsthand -- it has the most amazing views of the Sierra Nevada, with rolling fields that stretch for miles. It's a peaceful little town. I can't wait to come back and try some of their restaurants and maybe explore it a bit more.
