This was an easy off-season getaway from Los Angeles. Our cabin was quiet and comfortable with a nice outdoor seating area under the stars. We took advantage of the onsite restaurant twice in our weekend stay as well as the firepit. We had limited interaction with the front desk staff but they were helpful and friendly. Our first trip to beautiful Idyllwild was made better by our stay at Tahquiz Pines.

Great place to stay!!!

We loved this place! It was so beautiful, mostly quiet, cozy and super comfortable. We brought our 13 and 10 y/o grandsons and they loved it also. We spent a lot of time in the rec room and by the fireplace in our cabin as the weather was colder than expected and we actually had snow 2 days in a row. We will try to come back in the summer to enjoy more of the outdoor facilities and do more hiking. The on-site restaurant - The Peak is very nice also but had limited hours due to slow business and we weren't able to dine there as much as we hoped. However, that did allow us to go into the little village area and try some of the restaurants there and they were all great!

I have stayed at Tahquitz Pines Retreat quite a few times now and have always had a great experience. With a big dog, there is plenty of space to walk her and get her exercised on the hotel grounds, making it super convenient. When I first stayed here, I noted that the lack of peep holes and deadbolts on the doors made me uncomfortable as a solo traveler, but this time I had an issue that those things would have helped with. At about 11pm, someone started knocking on my door, and then I could hear them going to other rooms and knocking as well. The second time they knocked I called out, and someone started mumbling on the outside. They continued knocking on other doors, and the third time they came to my door I yelled and let my dog bark like crazy. I called the hotel office, but there are no overnight staff, so left a message. I know this isn't the hotel staff's fault, but had I had a deadbolt and the ability to see who was actually at my door without opening it, I would have felt much more comfortable. I will continue staying at the hotel for the grounds and price, but will be a bit more wary and alert when I walk my dog at night.

A really great place to stay in Idyllwild

Honestly this place is pretty amazing. As a fully sufficient property, there is so much to do: on site delicious dining, sports, a gym, walking trails, fire pits, etc. It is only a 5 minute drive into the heart of Idyllwild. The cabin seems to be recently renovated, very clean and comfortable. Modern heating/cooling system as well as a gas powered fireplace, and the king bed was very comfortable. The room was spacious and well put together. My only downside was that our cabin shared one wall with our neighbors, and the walls are pretty thin. I think some insulation or sound proofing would really help. I also was surprised that, while there was a beautiful pool, there was no hot tub. I actually thought I read there was one but I guess not. On a day after hiking, soaking in a hot tub was something I would have really enjoyed. I will definitely be back and I'll just make sure to book one of the stand alone cabins next time.
