I only came here to purchase aome items but I loved it. Had everything I needed for a day on the water with my family. I bought food to make lunch, fishing license, bait, snacks and ice.
I had to come back and bring my family to pick up a souvenir! There are a ton of stickers, shirts, sweatshirts, blankets, and magnets to check out! Loved it.
I'm a wedding photographer based in Mammoth and I've had the good fortune to shoot countless weddings at Convict Lake over the years and it's literally the quintessential California mountain wedding venue. The setting in that canyon is going to blow your guests away and it's no secret that the food at Convict is probably the best in the Eastern Sierra. It's great anytime between May-October, but my personal preference is the first few weeks in October when the weather is typically still pretty nice but the trees at the ceremony venue and at the lake have started to turn orange and there may be a touch of snow on the mountains above the lake. I can't recommend this place enough for your wedding.
We've stayed here both in the summer and winter. The cabins have all the amenities and even a bbq off the deck. It's a nice place as a home base for a few nights. They have a restaurant on the property, but we did our own cooking.
Great cabin, staff were friendly and helpful. Great location, lots to do in the area. Would definitely recommend.
Awesome resort feel with great access to the store, food and the lake. Make sure to take a walk at night at the lake it’s breathtaking.
We only hiked around half of the Lake until we could go no further because of snow melt off.... yes, even in August.
There was a fishing derby goings on and many people enjoying the lake.
They have a huge enclised facility Weddings and Dinner.
There are cabins to rent and a few Restaurants as well.
We stopped at the little store there and it was well stocked with many items.
I asked the elderly lady there why it was called "Convict Lake" and she told me the fascinating story of the 30 hardened prisoners that had over powered and escaped from a prison in Carson City Nevada and ended up here at Convict Lake, after making the matters worst by shooting and killing a young Pony Express Rider and taking his horse.
More people joined the possy, until there was a big shootout there, killing the Shariff and his Indian tracker.
The prisoners that were shot were hanged, but the leader escaped.
That’s when they Renamed Diablo Lake, the original name, to Convict Lake.
Note: if you are planning to check out Convict Lake, make sure that you do not miss "Hot Creek Geological Site" located on Hot Creek Hatchery Rd. Not Far.
Amazing
Great location and service but rooms need some updating. Especially the beds, pillows, bed sheets and carpet. Everything else was perfect.
Great resort, nice staff with a well stocked store. Cabin was great and the atmosphere was wonderful.
