1849 Mountain Rentals is the official vacation rental agency for 1849 Condos, and Snowbird Condos, plus Sierra Megeve Condos. Staying at an 1849 property is not a generic mountain hotel booking. Since 1985, guests have the opportunity for a Mammoth experience that is a step closer to the local, the authentic, the genuine. Our group still contains a number of ‘original’ owners, and our legacy of sharing mountain homes with good people is one we cherish. We pride ourselves on our connection with owners and their properties, and our front desk service means we can keep a closer eye on their treasured resort homes. The 1849 team is proud to offer our clients’ homes to more conscientious, caring mountain guests and families, and we never forget the responsibility we share to make that experience as close to perfect as possible for everyone.
