Where to Stay in Mammoth, CA?

Planning a trip with wife, one adult son, one teenage son, and our small furry companion.

Towing an Outback 250RS.

A friend did not have a good experience last summer in a Bishop RV park, so we are reluctant about Bishop, so we are considering Mammoth which is not too far from Bishop.

Would like to go in June.

This trip is about 5-6 hours (300 miles) from our home in SoCal.

Needs:
Full hook ups, cell/wi-fi service, fishing nearby, sight seeing, etc.
Would like to visit Ancient Bristlecone Pine Forest near Bishop.

What can we expect in Mammoth/Bishop?
What RV Parks can you recommend?
Considerations?

Thanks!

    Very little choice in Mammoth for full hook up site....off hand, in the town is Mammoth Mtn. RV Park....I've never stayed there. There are a few places over on the June Lake loop, the only one I've stayed at was Golden Pine, tight spots but pretty central.

    I'm happy to get in anyplace up that way...which normally means Forest Service camps....have fun!

    Tri-County Fairgrounds isn't pretty but it is very close to downtown.
