Every time we stay, I’m reluctant to review online - the Fireside Inn feels like such a well kept secret. We love the Fireside Inn’s mix of location, accessibility, rustic charm, and ease of access. It’s all the benefits of a hotel with the privacy of an Airbnb. Will definitely be back next year

Absolutely loved our 1 night stay in ‘Fern’. If you want a one bedroom room that’s really more of a private little lodge with a renovated bathroom and very cute kitchen, this is the place for you. Private but close to town. 21st C touches like automatic check-in with code (provided via text) was great. Room was spotless and retained charm of why one visits Idyllwild.

As travellers from Australia unfamiliar with the town of Idyllwild or the property, we were absolutely thrilled when we drove into the property and spotted our cute Sequoia cottage. Then we walked inside and were blown away by how amazing it was inside. The whole experience from first contact prior to checking in to checking out after our stay. Beautiful town and such a cute property with Squirrels, bunny rabbits and woodpeckers around the property. Highly recommend this property. Very well equipped with a full kitchen and everything you need, while being walking distance to the town square.
