Overall the stay was pleasant. Stayed 2 nights in the grand view room. The room could use a really good scrubbing. Fridge light was out. A few sticky spots in the floor that was missed. Some mold in the shower. Bed was very comfortable. The view was amazing. Breakfast in the morning was a great touch. The 2 ladies in the office were very nice and personable. Will stay again just need some TLC.

Wow! The bunkhouse isn’t fancy, but it is still my favorite place to stay when I visit Idyllwild. Debbie and Raj are simply the best! They are friendly and gracious hosts who went above and beyond to make it a nice stay. It is so sweet to get a little breakfast basket on my door each morning and the view from my room was lovely! Great value for a great stay!

Cute an quirky motel
I really enjoyed my stay! The Idyllwild was so cute with all the cedar walls and the little kitchen and balcony! I loved sitting on the balcony at night looking at the stars!. The hosts were awesome and I made two new friends. Also the home made scones in the cute breakfast basket were a great touch. There could be more attention to cleaning as I saw old grains of rice in the bed. I would stay there again!

I've been staying here for almost a decade, but prior to this trip it had been about 4 years since my last visit and it seems that the property has noticably fallen into disrepair. I will no longer be recommending this place to anyone or staying there myself.

Convenient location
The receptionist on site charged me for my service dog which is illegal. I called U.S. Service Animal agency the next day to report it. The manager soon came to my door and said she would reverse the charge, but I’ve yet to see it on my bank account. As for the room, the TV didn’t work. It took forever for the hot water to heat up in the shower. The lodge is next to the highway with nowhere but the side of the road next to traffic to walk a dog. The bed was comfortable. The lodge is only 3 minutes from town so the location is convenient. I’d probably stay there again, but I did have to drive my dog to a nearby field for her to go potty. Also, a picnic style breakfast is brought to your door in a basket in the morning. It had an apple, fruit juice, instant oatmeal, and a chocolate filled croissant in it. Nice touch. The whole place needs a better paint job. It wasn’t expensive, either.

A hidden gem
This was a wonderful stay. I rarely take the time to write a review but I felt it was necessary for this stay. The hotel is actually very cute. The appearance outside is of an adorable cottage like hotel in the pines. The insides are perfect little cabins. My three kids slept upstairs in the loft and they really liked it. The room has every comfort you could need whether it’s summer or winter. The back patio had gorgeous views of the forest you’re in. It was quiet and we enjoyed seeing the beautiful birds and the fluffy squirrels running around. Breakfast was also super cute. They leave a basket with different options at your door in the morning. My kids loved it. The only down side is we stayed one night. I would have liked to stay longer. -also, the owner was extremely nice and I would recommend this place to friends and family

Wonder filled cabin in the woods
We always have a wonderful time staying at the bunkhouse. The little naughty pine cabin with kitchen is very convenient. We love this stay in The pines of Idlewild. We have been there in the fall and now in the spring we will be ready visiting again in the fall before the snowflakes fall. wonderful place and of course Raj the owner is Super nice. If you like a funky fun weekend stay this is it.

Woodland Vista cabin
Staff were extremely friendly and accommodating, even giving us a ride to the local laundromat. The cabin was cute and had a wood stove, kitchenette, balcony and hide a bed sofa. However, things seemed unfinished: sloppy painting behind the toilet, doors had fairly wide gaps that let cold air in, and the heat was either full on or full off. Also, there was a mouse running around. There was one of those sticky mouse catchers under the fridge, which I really don't like. Use a snap trap and kill the mouse instantly; don't catch it alive in stickiness and let it starve to death.
