We had a great stay, the amenities and staff were great and the restaurant was delicious! They had a Memorial day barbeque buffett that so good as well, kids and parents enjoyed the game room with pool, ping pong, and air hockey. I personally enjoy staying in different places, but we will be back here with more family next time!!

Rooms were clean. Whoever designed the property site did a great job. However, whoever designed the rooms didn’t make them feel like you’re in the mountains or feel warm. They sort of dropped the ball on the interior of the rooms. It is a very clean property. We appreciated that.

The property is very nice. Keep in mind that your cabin may not look anything like what the pictures show. The set up for our two bedroom cabin was awkward but still nice. Check in was the only issue, we got there 8 minutes early and the room wasn’t ready yet, which ok I was a few minutes early, but they couldn’t give me a time frame for the room to be ready. So I didn’t know if I should leave or wait somewhere on the property. They called around 30 minutes later telling me the room was ready. So we went back to check in they told me where the cabin was, we go to the cabin and they’re still cleaning it. So we waited on the little patio for a few more minutes. Staff was friendly but could have handled the room not being ready a little better. Like giving me an estimate for how much longer so I know if I should go back in to town or wait on the property. Also the room actually being done when the guest gets to it. Y

Fun, family camp vibes. Our cabin was cute and cozy - our only complaint were the small (full size) beds and honestly I had a hard time getting comfortable but definitely not a deal breaker for us. All the amenities the property offers is just so much fun for the whole family (we have a 16, 14, 12 year olds). The onsite restaurant has good food. The staff was friendly. The community of Idyllwild is a very cute mountain community. Lots of trails and exploring to do. We really did enjoy our stay here and hope to be back soon.
