Beautiful property and amazing hospitality. The Enos family welcomes you like you were a part of theirs. Cozy, comfortable rooms, breathtaking scenery and very peaceful. The nightly campfires for all of the guests are a perfect ending to your day in the Sierras.

A clean but very dated hotel room. Friendly and accommodating check in person - easy for us to get the soap and shampoo not in the room. Right on the highway but set back a bit and not much traffic at night. Considerate and quiet fellow guests. Good choice if you're on the road and need a place here.

Enjoyable stay
Older motel style, but updated and very nice. We were in a kitchen suite which was well appointed with everything we needed. Centrally located to visiting Bodie, various lakes and Mono Lake. The nightly campfire was a fun way to meet others and get info about the area. The folks running the place were all friendly and helpful…no complaints.

A great place to stay when passing through the area, we wish we could have stayed longer. We had a cabin with a full kitchen and it exceeded our expectations in size, cleanliness, and amenities. A welcome place to cook a meal while on the road and even though we arrived 10 minutes after the office closed, they left me a note on the door and a kind voicemail inviting us to join them around the community fire pit that evening. It's a gem and we're so glad we found this place.

Amazing gem to stop by
Great location close to Bridgeport downtown on the way to the Sierras. The place is between a motel and an organized campground. They have space for RVs and a few cabins. Nothing fancy but definitely clean and with all the needs for a rest along the way. Nice people very friendly and well maintained. During summer they have a fireplace pit on going in the front so people in the weekend tends to be a bit noisy if you want to go to sleep early. Still, very friendly attitude from everybody. Also watch out for mosquitos from the close creek.

What a cute place! Our motel room is clean and roomy. It has a nice seating area outside and the people are so kind and helpful. When I asked about a soda machine (which they don’t have) the owner offered to see what she had in her fridge. When she heard we were looking for ginger ale because my son was carsick, she brought over ginger candies! I wish we were staying for more than one night to have more time to enjoy it here.

Not again
It is over priced.... but a nice place. We go to Bridgeport often and 1st time we have tried this place. Over $200 a night ... nice beds but very cheap towels and no window coverings on most of the windows. (This was the last night on our huge adventure of over 70 nights away!)

Thank you for your response! We are so happy you liked our beds and we appreciate your feedback regarding our window coverings (which are brand new this year). With respect to our prices on our kitchenette rooms, we have finally raised them so that we are not priced way below all other establishments in our area as we have been in previous years. Again thank you!

The property is very charming. When I checked in they told me since there was no cell service but ‘excellent’ wifi’ I should use wifi calling. The wifi was excellent the first day but didn’t work at all the next morning. As I was packing up my car the next morning before 8:00 am the biker guy next door was sitting outside smoking pot. I’m not making judgments, I was just surprised.

We are sorry for your experience and wished we had been informed as both situations would have been easy fixes. We do not allow smoking in any form near our RV sites or structures and pride ourselves on our Wi-Fi as we have many customers who rely on it to work remotely. We hope you will stay with us again and enjoy our smoke-free property and excellent Wi-Fi.

Simply the best place we stayed at during our road trip. A mix of motel and RV parking.....not unusual and available elsewhere.....so read on.... What makes Willow Springs special is the family that have run it for several generations. Welcoming, flexible and proud of their business. But it doesn't feel like a business. When you're sat round the daily 7pm camp fire chatting to John your host and new arrivals or making smores or wine tasting with long stayers and even passersby you feel truly immersed in the experience.....like being at your local pub with your mates and a few regulars. Located 5 minutes outside Bridgeport, consider here if you’re going east out of Yosemite, fancy a stroll round Bodie or are visiting the lakes.

I really had the best time during my single night stay. I wish I would have stayed longer and can guarantee I will be coming back again! The facilities were very well kept, my room was perfectly clean and cozy. John was working the front desk and was just as nice and welcoming as could be. I joined in for the community campfire during my one evening on the property and had an incredible time meeting other guests and talking with the staff. I'm a solo female traveler and sometimes it's hard for me to feel safe and relaxed in my surroundings. But not here! I had the best time at Willow Springs and will recommend it to anyone traveling along the 395.
