Rainbow Tarns Bed & Breakfast is truly a unique experience. It has a rustic quality that is right out of the Old West, complete with wagon wheels and rawhide rockers on the porch. The great room, with its log walls, stone fireplace and vaulted log-trussed ceiling was the original log cabin built in 1940.
Brock & Diane Thoman the Owners, originally from La Canada in Southern California, had never planned on being innkeepers. Having vacationed in the Eastern Sierras since their youth, their love of the area only grew as their 3 sons learned to enjoy the beauty and diversity of the region. They had always admired the meadow in which Rainbow Tarns lies, and when by chance or destiny they found themselves the owners of this ""piece of heaven,"" they decided to keep it as a bed and breakfast so they could share its restful beauty with others. Since then, they have enjoyed the many visitors (now friends) who have been able to experience the uniqueness of Rainbow Tarns Bed and Breakfast.
The three ponds (tarns), shaded by Willows and Aspens are only a few steps from the front porch. The leather rockers will tempt even the most active person to sit and enjoy the quiet serenity of the Tarns. Rocky hillsides and open meadows invite exploration and the surrounding areas offer adventures galore. There are many outdoor activities including excellent trout fishing and hiking to keep you quite busy even into the fall. When winter comes there is world class downhill skiing at near by Mammoth Mountain and great cross country skiing throught the area.

Enjoy a complete gourmet breakfast each morning with complementary wine and snacks in the late afternoon. Picknic lunches available at nominal price with advance notice.
