Once known as "Big Meadows" for it's fertile and open grazing land, Bridgeport California today is the hub of a year round vacation paradise. It's historical, recreational, beautiful and affordable. Enjoy a great meal at the fine community restaurants. The local merchants provide a wide variety of services and really appreciate your patronage.

Surrounded by vast National Forest lands, this section of Mono County is an unspoiled recreational playground with pristine lakes, rivers, streams and hot springs. Naturally, there's great fishing, hunting, hiking, cross country skiing, snowmobile trails and horseback adventures. But, that's just the beginning. Find out more in the Bridgeport Recreation Guide.

Perhaps, best of all, this natural playground comes with a complete range of amenities travelers desire. For those that prefer a roof over their head, you'll find cozy cabins, historic bed and breakfast inns as well as resorts and comfortable motels. If camping out under the stars better suits you, a number of campgrounds and RV parks await your arrival.

The First Annual Meet and Greet Extravaganza, on October 23 - 25, was a great success. Everyone had a great time and $1,700 was raised for the Fourth of July committee. Plans for next year's event are already in progress.

If you have the opportunity to visit during July, join the community and it's many annual visitors for the Old Fashioned Fourth of July activities. Enjoy the "All American Small Town Experience". It's for kids of all ages! Bring your camera.
