Idyllwild Hotels with Hot Tub

Idyllwild Inn was a great place to stay during a little nostalgia getaway to Idyllwild after a 35-year absence. A few changes in town and at the Inn but it is a nice as ever (we used to have a cabin in town in the 70s and early 80s). the Inn is in a great location right in the middle of town close to everything and has been there for over 100 years. There is a mixture of the old original cabins with additional cabins and rooms added over time. Terry at the front desk was very welcoming at check in, a wealth of knowledge and fun to compare notes with from our previous times in town. “Some new things, a lot the same, still the quaint Idyllwild town.” We were in one of the newer theme rooms, Ponderosa, right behind the office, it was large, comfortable, very clean with a king sized bed, electric stove, patio, small refrigerator and microwave. We look forward to a return visit.

We had a great birthday weekend getaway! Pro’s: House was updated and had plenty of towels and amenities. There was a nice large private patio with tables and chairs. Three rooms (2 bunk, 1 queen, 1 king) were plenty big for our group of 6 (3 adults, 3 teens). The pool was refreshing and pool towels were provided. Food delivery to the pool was quick and delicious. My kids had a blast in the rec room playing pool and other games. It was in the high 80’s low 90’s while we were there and we were SOO grateful for the air conditioning-which is not an easy thing to find in mountain community lodging! The not-so-pro’s: While the pool was refreshing and nice, the addition of a jacuzzi would have provided more of the resort feeling. The house was clean and spacious, but is in desperate need of a second bathroom or even half bath. There were 6 of us staying plus an additional 2 family members who came to visit. An en-suite in the primary would have been more useful than a massive walk-in closet. It’s loud! A few area rugs and art to absorb some of the echo would benefit the space. A few of the doors stuck pretty bad opening and closing them even while trying to be careful was impossible. All in all we would definitely stay here again. Just know you are a bit far from the town center but I think the trade off is worth it!
