My wife and I recently stayed their during a conference for my wife's work. While we were there, it snowed about 8"(an unusal mid April snow storm). Our cabin was nicely furnished (table, chairs, couch that made into a bed, referigerator, microwave and wood burning fireplace). The cabin was very clean and comfortable and the grounds were beautuful. We could... More

We've been staying at the Silver Pines for quite a few years and have our "favorite" seasonal cabins which are very familiar and comfortable as soon as we arrive. The owner, Chris, is friendly and cheerful and is either on the premises or has very attentive people who fill in for her if she is out or up at her... More

This place is one of our favorites. It's not the lap of luxury, there is no spa, no onsite bar or restaurant, but each of the cabins or rooms are set up for at least two and up to 5 or 6 (maybe more) people. Each one has a kitchen and there's coffee provided in case you didn't bring any.... More

The rooms are small, but clean and cute. Silver Pines Lodge is an older place; has been around since the 1920s, and is not "high luxury." Some reviewers complain that things like furnaces malfunction, but that was not our experience. Lovely, peaceful, restful. The huge koi pond in back with its multiple waterfalls is a dream. I sat there for... More

We had not been there in many years. It's a wonderful place to stay. We were in one of the cabins (Owl's Nest) which is cute, practical and warm. The beds were excellent! The owner (Chris) was as charming and helpful as the last time we saw her. Lovely location at a creek - and when the water is missing,... More

The cabins are not what they advertise. Very poor customer service--I stayed in a cabin and the heat and water didnt work, There was no firewood available. Extremely disappointed.

We stayed here for 3 nights during a rock climbing trip. This place is pretty cool. It was a great place to escape from LA. We stayed in the Old Idyllwild room. it was a fairly large room with one queen and one twin bed. The lodge was cool and they also had a koi pond in the back. The... More

I have stayed here several times recently with my dog and we both have always felt so welcome. It is a small collection of quirky cabins and lodge rooms located right on Strawberry Creek with good creek views and access. It is in town but just far enough away to feel rustic and quiet. The Lodge has been here forever;... More

We arrived in Idyllwild after all the inns and lodges had closed, and without a reservation. The staff at the Silver Pines Lodge not only helped us out after hours, they gave us a fantastic room at a great rate! The room was larger than we expected for the price we paid, and was very comfortable and had a great... More

We ended up in Idyllwild unexpectedly overnight, and the Silver Pines was the only place we could find that would let us have our dog with us. The dog even got her own Welcome Goodies! We were given a separate cabin with bedroom, living room w/2 futons, a full kitchen. We didn't have time, but the main lodge has books,... More
