Has any one stayed at the Moutain view hotel or the Best western creekside?

FINALLY, a motel I've stayed at...we usually stay in our motorhome...LOL! DH had a conference and we stayed at the Best Western Hotel in Biship. It's been a few years ago, but it was really nice. I really like Bishop too.

OK, Melissa...I see all your post asking all kinds of questions about the area...what is your itinerary?

When we pass through Bishop, we always look forward to lunch at Whiskey Creek.

Best Western Creekside is the better choice. It's right on the main street. You can walk to dining. Breakfast item at Schats bakery.

This is what I have come up with.
I am open to suggestions and ideas

From all your posts, here’s what I surmise:

2 adults, 2 teens going on a driving vacation through eastern CA southern Oregon and then western CA.

A convenient way to see these sights while limiting your driving would be to do eastern Sierra which includes Yosemite, Bodie, Carson City, Virginia City, Tahoe, Lassen. Then it appears you want to do southern OR around Crater Lake. To do this you should head toward Mt Shasta or Klamath Falls – you can see the Lava Beds if you do this route. You can end up at Crater Lake and the surrounding area. From here you should go to Crescent City and then Eureka. For your last 4 days head south along the northern CA Coast. It will be a relief from the August heat. End up in San Francisco and fly home.

This route is much better than heading over to Eureka from Lassen/Susanville and then going to Crater Lake.

Don't miss Erik Schat's Bakery. Great place for lunch, wonderful baked goods.
