I love the historic charm, with an updated bed. Got to take a soak in a real bathtub, one of my great pleasures. The dinner/restaurant recommendation was excellent.

The breakfast was better than I expected. They had hot food and cereal and yogurt. It was nice that there was a mini fridge in the room

Well located and appointed motel in the middle of a town known for its many movie locations, and access the back sides of the Sierra Nevadas.
Located in Lone Pine, California, just 2 miles from Alabama Hills, this motel offers a seasonal outdoor pool. All comfortably furnished rooms include free Wi-Fi.

This is not a luxury hotel and should not be rated as such. It is an old style motel and in that criteria I had no complaints. The key thing was that my room was quiet, the bed was very comfortable and the place felt clean. There were not any real amenities to the property but I was not looking for that. I checked in late and the staff was quite nice. As to be expected, the decor is older and put together by a color blind decorator but that really does not matter in a motel in this class. I would stay there again.
Mt Williamson Motel and Basecamp is offering accommodations in Independence. The motel also provides free WiFi and free private parking.

We had an amazing stay at Basecamp! We were passing through town and stayed the night. Arrival was smooth, the suite was clean and had everything we needed. I wanted to make a special shoutout to the property manager. I though I had lost an item in the room and he helped me try to track it down. Then, when my car battery died, he offered to come from the next town over to give me a jump (which I, thankfully, didn't end up needing). Great place and great people!

Lone Pine is a quaint town, catered to outdoorsy people who love hiking, rock climbing, off roading, etc. We loved Alabama Hills and Whitney Portal (although we didn't get all the way to the trailhead due to a rock slide). The Alabama Hills Cafe was amazing, and the Museum of Film History was a must before you go out and hike!

What an amazing surprise to find this small town.
What an amazing surprise to find this small town. The ideal place to stay after visiting the Death Valley and if you are a cinema fan. The Western Film History Museum is a must, and also, if you are looking for a quiet old-day town with quite a picturesque atmosphere surrounded by mountains, this is the place!

Loads of fun! Great "base camp" for hiking. Loved the motion picture museum and it was fun going to movie road and hiking some of the sites of movies.
The Mt. Whitney Portal hike was wonderful.
Enjoyed the town, especially the restaurants.

I'm traveling on a tight schedule; this was just an overnight stop. The town is small and eclectic, at the foot of Mt. Whitney, the tallest mountain in the lower 48. The town draws many hikers and climbers and caters to their needs. For a town of its size, there are an unusual number of dining options. There's a very nice museum housing western movie memorabilia. Nearby are the Alabama Hills, where many movies and TV programs were filmed. Just north of town is Manzanar, a WWII internment camp for Americans of Japanese heritage; the National Park Service has done an admirable job presenting the facility. Death Valley, and the ghost towns of Panamint Valley, are nearby.

We love Lone Pine.
We love Lone Pine. We stay overnight on our trips to Lake Tahoe.
The Eastern Sierras are my favorite mountain range. Have taken many backpack trips in them.
Lone Pine is known for having the road to Mt. Whitney Portal. Has many places to stay when getting ready and finishing the hike. Fits most budgets.
Be sure to check out Alabama Hills. The geological formations are amazing and many westerns were filmed around the Hills.
Our favorite place to stay is the historic Dow hotel. Many actors stayed there while filming their westerns.
Alabama Hills Cafe is our favorite place for breakfast. It's across from the Dow Hotel. Could go on and on but, I'll stop here.

Lone Pine has several nice restaurants within walking distance of the Dow Villa hotel. We ate at the "Mt. Whitney Restaurant", they really do have the best burgers in Lone Pine! The "Alabama Hills bakery" is also within walking distance with wonderful cakes and baked goods. And for coffee make sure you visit the "Lone Star Bistro" great coffee, breakfast and gifts. We tried "The Grill" but we probably won't be back, we didn't enjoy the food very much there.
I was in Lone Pine to climb Mount Whitney. As a "base camp", the hotel is well-located as it is close to the road to the trailhead. I could also walk the main street of Lone Pine to find a restaurant. Room amenities were just fine. Comfortable bed. Very clean. Fridge was cold and AC worked. WiFi reception in the room was excellent. A very fast and secure network. Plenty of ice in the ice making machine also!
This is one of the few hotels in the area that allows dogs. The dog friendly room we stayed in has a second door with quick access to grass which made taking our dog outside really easy. The designated dog area was quite large and very tidy. Would love if they would fence it off completely (it’s 3/4 fenced off) to allow dog to run a bit, but overall we were quite happy with our experience there.
The location of the the hotel was great and very central. The room was clean, beds were comfortable, A/C and shower worked well. It was a big bonus to be able to lie out by the pool. Make sure to drop by Alabama Hills cafe & bakery for breakfast - delicious. We also ate at a Chinese restaurant just down the road from the motel which was surprisingly good.
The lady at the front desk was very friendly and helpful. Our stat was last minute, dye to changes to our Road trip. The town of Lone Pine was a pleasant surprise. Mount Whitney, which is a shirt drive was fantastic and if you're a movie fan, especially of westerns then this town has been featured in many.
Right near all the main shops and restaurants of Lone Pine — for a one night stopover this place is perfect. Nothing particularly fancy but if you need a decent, clean place to stay for a night or two this is a great option.
Obviously the choices in Lone Pine are limited, but the beds were comfortable, rooms were quiet and clean, and owner/staff were super friendly and helpful. That is really all you can ask for when booking a motel.
Within walking distance of pretty much everything in Lone Pine - such a lovely small town! Really comfy bed, great wifi and TV system, good shower and lots of space. Loved the neon sign too.
The house was very clean and well equipped. All our questions were answered quickly and in a friendly manner. Would definitely use again for a hiking trip up to lone pines.
Very nice hotel located at the southern part of Lone Pine. Easy base for heading toward Mt. Whitney or towards Death Valley. The breakfast was good and diverse.
