Cute little place. Great value. Loved that you could walk to everything in town. Something to know going in, bring a smoke/carbon monoxide detector. I didn’t see any in the place and I would’ve slept a little better if I had brought one with. Otherwise, excellent affordable stay

This property suited what I needed for my visit to Death Valley because it was convenient. The view of Mt Whitney was beautiful too. I really appreciated the quietness and cleanliness as well.

I stayed here for a few days in order to trail run Mt. Whitney. The house is a good size for about 3 people, maybe 2 adults and 2 kids comfortably. The kitchen is a good size to whip up meals and the fridge is good as well. Shower felt great and the water pressure was solid. Everything in Lone Pine is within walking distance so you can park your car in front of the house and walk around town without issue. We were able to run from the house into the Alabama Hills to warm up before we did Mt. Whitney the following day. Alabama Hills has some of the coolest rock formations I've ever seen. The neighborhood is quiet and felt safe in my opinion. I will absolutely be staying here again and I am looking forward to the next trip there.

This property was very comfortable with one bedroom for two as well as a futon that could sleep two in the living/dining room area. The kitchen was bright and well equipped, the bathroom and shower were clean and there was the bonus of a washer and dryer in a back room. Enjoyed being able to walk to several good restaurants and a grocery store. Was our base for visits to Death Valley National Park and Alabama Hills. Not a fancy place but a homey one with comfortable seating and mattresses; would like to return!

Cozy Lone Pine Cottage
This little house in Lone Pine is perfectly located for all you want to do in the Owens Valley. It's walking distance to everything in Lone Pine and close driving distance to everything else. The owner responded helpfully to my phone call when I had a question about the house. Highly recommended!

Our 3rd stay @ our favorite cottage!
We love this cottage. Has all the amenities you need to make for a very comfortable stay. This was the first time staying during a summer month, so the wall cooler was excellent to combat the heat of the day. Very comfy bed with great pillows and linens. We always enjoy our stay at Mr. Bork's cottage and will be back!

Convenient house in downtown Lone Pine
The place has some quirks, but is a great location and good price. I loved being able to walk to all the restaurants and stores in downtown Lone Pine and easily drive out to hike in the Alabama Hills and visit the movie filming locations there. I especially loved the mountain view out the front windows of the house.

Small bungelow
The location was very central. We walked to stores and restaurants. The kitchen was well equipped with microwave, toaster oven, stove, coffee maker, new apartment size frig. and nice pots and pans. We discovered a private table and chairs when we took out the trash in a little patio out the back door. The patio was nice but it was too hot out to use. We happened to be there during the 108 degree heat wave. Some of the restaurants closed for 3-4 days because of heat. The swamp cooler worked but it was so hot outside that it was still 81-85 at 9:00 pm.. Other than the heat it was a very usable place we enjoyed.

Loved the adorable cottage. Loved the swamp cooler. Loved the fully stocked kitchen. Don’t know what that last guy’s problem was. The place was spotless. There was one dead palmetto bug on the floor? Shrug, it’s the desert. Very comfortable bed, and futons. Made my mom’s visit to California from Virginia magical. Highly recommend.

Cockroach Infestation!
I'll try to be fair. When I arrived I had to grab a broom and sweep at least a dozen large cockroaches out the back door. Owner said he'd send pest control then he went silent the rest of my stay. I think pest control came because I only had to sweep about 6 roaches out the door every day after that. There must be some poison hidden somewhere because they tend to be sitting half dead in the middle of the floor. On the plus side the bed is super comfortable, the backyard is nice and the fans (no AC) keep the place from boiling. Kitchen is well equipped and the location is perfect for Mt. Whitney. This was the last place available for my dates and I came to Lone Pine to summit Mt. Whitney - which I did successfully - so it wasn't all bad. The housekeeper, Ruth, is a sweetheart and this isn't her fault. This place needs serious work. It is essentially a small wood framed shack nestled between larger buildings. You've been warned - make an informed choice if this is the place for you.
