Hear from our guests about their experiences with New Spirit Vacation Homes.
Had a great time exploring trails and playing in the snow. Cabin was roomy and great.
We had a wonderful time even though it was really hot. We enjoyed two long hikes and lots of great meals out.
Lovely and clean and well stocked for a rental cabin. Easy to get to and a perfect get-away for anyone looking for a quality place.
The New Spirit Team - just simply amazing. Made it so easy for us.
The house was extremely clean, well appointed and well maintained! The house's amenities - furniture, windows, blinds, heat and air, appliances, wood stove, spa, etc. were all near top of the line and in very good repair. We prepared and ate all our meals there and found everything we needed. The one working television in the living room was a little small but came programed with everything! We spent a great deal of time on the beautiful deck, and yes, there was some minor road noise but nothing intrusive. It was a great weekend, and we will definitely be back!
Our family stayed 6 years ago at Lily Rock Lodge and our experience was fantastic, very memorable and enjoyable. This year our stay was once again an awesome, memorable and a fantastic stay. The home location, layout and amenities are great. We will definitely be back very soon.
We celebrated a birthday here and it was perfect to escape into the trees. The cabin has incredible views that make the place feel very private, despite being so close to other cabins.
It is a bit of a ways from town if you are looking to walk, but otherwise just a quick drive. We found we had everything we needed at the cabin, and spent most of our time there, anyway.
Worth noting that the master bedroom is actually a loft open to the downstairs and you can hear everything - light sleepers be aware. Other than that (and an odd infestation of fly's outside) the cabin was wonderful and we would absolutely recommend to anyone looking for a relaxing weekend!
New Spirit was probably the most seamless management company I've ever rented from. Thank you to them for everything!
This is a beautiful cozy home with spectacular views from the master bedroom, kitchen, and spacious back deck. Great location within easy walking distance to hiking trails (Devil's Slide/Tahquitz Peak and Ernie Maxwell) & only a short drive to town. As always the New Spirit staff is friendly & helpful. Highly recommend.
We stayed for 3 nights at Sunset Perch and the setting could not have been more breathtaking. Most of our time was spent on the front deck overlooking the valley and mountains. We played Trivial Pursuit for hours as hawks and blue jays soared overhead and a family of quail meandered through the yard below. It was an unseasonably hot weekend, but the breeze from the valley kept us cool. The open living space was well appointed and had everything we need to cook 3 meals a day. We came with lots of groceries, but the market in town is just a short drive away if we needed additional supplies. Beds were comfy and there were plenty of areas to sprawl out in the living room. The view from the hot tub was also worth noting as it sits on the side of the hill overlooking majestic rock formations as well.
We stayed for two days recently and the location was truly amazing. Beautiful views, plenty of beds, and an open floor plan made it feel as if we were in a tree house. Staff was very friendly and answered any questions we had. Definitely will be back.
Our group had a really nice stay at Cozy Cottage. The check-in instructions were clear and simple. We stayed for a weekend and felt like it was very comfortable. There are a lot of entertainment options and we enjoyed having use of Roku.
My husband and I really enjoyed our 3 night stay in this quiet comfy cabin with views of cedar trees out all the windows. The bed and couch were comfortable and we slept great every night. The kitchen was fully equipped with lots of small appliances as well which we appreciate as we cooked a few times. The stove, toilet and refrigerator seemed quite new. The cabin was clean when we arrived and the heat was on so it felt welcoming right away. The cabin reminded me of a place I used to stay in as a kid with my family. The property management company kept us well informed and we had an easy check in and out. We would definitely consider staying here again in the future.
This was a great place for a getaway. Close to town, lots of space for 2-4 people and a lot of outdoor space. We will be back!
The cabin was quiet, relaxing, and had everything that we needed for a short getaway. I loved that this property was back away from the street. My kids and dogs loved exploring around the property and my dogs loved the fenced yard. We were able to relax in the spa and had everything that we could possibly need provided by the cabin- including beach towels! Every single person that I spoke with between the booking, check-in, and check-out process was friendly, helpful, and very welcoming.
Sky Rock Lodge is very comfortable. We loved the location, the property itself, and the layout of the house. The kitchen was easy to use, the bedrooms private and nice, and the deck was lovely to have breakfast outside. We were lucky and saw live music every day of the 3 days in town and experienced a short thunderstorm!
The whole process was fairly simple and straightforward upon check in. Everything was as the pictures showed. Great view of the golf course as the 3rd green is in your backyard. My family came and watched me the play the 3rd and tee off on the par 3, 4th. Amenities are great down to the really nice air mattresses. Would stay and recommend again.
This home was in a great location, beautiful home very nicely decorated with all necessary amenities! We love golf and were able to get out to play, enjoyed the pool and the patio in the evenings. Will definitely be returning, thank you Spirit Vacations and to the owners!
The house was clean and the house was well stocked in the kitchen which is always important to us. We loved that the front yard was fenced in for our dog to go out. Flat areas allowed us to play catch with tennis balls. Right on the stream with a nice walking path. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The beds were the only thing that I would improve. Not comfortable and very noisy with every move.
We loved three gazing stars because we could walk to town . The driveway was not too steep so we were able to walk up and down without problems. Looking forward to go back
The perfect retreat for a family and friends. Our daughter loved exploring the property and we all really enjoyed the layout of the space. Plenty of privacy with the separate upstairs and downstairs. An amazing library of books and games to enjoy and an absolutely beautiful deck with the most epic views of the mountains and rock formations surrounding Idyllwild. The hosts are so accommodating and friendly as well. Definitely will come back.
"one of the best VRBO's you have ever arrainged for us".... this is from my employee and his family that I rented the cabin for. they thoroughly enjoyed their time there and could not find anything to complain about.... they stated that everything was as pictured...the kitchen was fully stocked and everything worked. it was also close to the town square without the crowds.
We had a great time spending our weekend away from the city. The house was very nice and clean. Outside was very quite and beautiful. We really enjoyed our stay.
My wife and have stayed with New Spirit several times and this last time didn't disappoint. Lilac has plenty of room inside for two, a charming and comfortable living and dining area, all with wooded and scenic views. The fireplace is a must!
This was a great place to stay after having proposed to my new fiancee on top of Tahquitz. It was clean and cozy had a very nice master bedroom and bathroom arrangement. The fireplace and jacuzzi were both wonderful for relaxing after our climb. I would recommend this place to others.
My family and I had such a great stay at Dairy Manor. You can feel the love and inspiration of this home in every single room, there is so much charm and character everywhere you look. The home’s age gave it so much of its beautiful character, yet you still have all the modern essentials needed for your stay. I never thought my sons (ages 5 & 8) would enjoy a home as much as they did at the Dairy Manor. Our stay here in Idyllwild was exactly what we needed as a family, shutting out the world of 2021, connecting with each other, and with Mother Nature. I honestly couldn’t be happier then I was with The Dairy Manor!
The house was unique, big and very clean. Great location and 1/2 mile walk to town in the snow was fun!
Great location. Walking distance to town, yet tucked away in it's own neighborhood.
This little cottage was the PERFECT one-person-plus-dog getaway destination. We came up from LA for the 4th of July week to escape from the fireworks mayhem in the city, and I'm happy to say the loudest noise we heard the whole time was the tree frogs. This is a sweet little cottage, with all the amenities that were promised: total privacy, comfy bed, TV (once I figured out how to use it), good wifi, nice kitchen and bathroom, enough space to spread out a bit, a fine hot tub, and best of all, a private fenced yard for the dog to run around in. We hiked a little, went to town for coffee and groceries, and I had a wonderful massage down the road. I'm so happy to have found this little haven of peace and quiet.
We enjoyed our stay in this house, very good for a families with kids.
Our time at Golden Sunshine was magical. I t is a peaceful place perched on top of the mountainside. We sat on the wonderful wrap around deck and watched the sunset. We were there for a brief time but felt as if we got a lovely respite which renew and reentered us. Thank you for all that the New spirit star did to make our stay so great.
This house was perfect for our family of four with plenty of room to spare. The house is bigger than you would think with many balconies and outdoor seating areas to enjoy the views. Everything was in working order and immaculate. The management company was very responsive. They were even able to deliver an order of wood even though it was less than 3 days notice as required. They went above and beyond. We have told family and friends what a great home it was and the location was perfect. A 15 min walk to town and secluded from other neighbors. We will definitely book this place again.
Perfect secluded cabin for a family getaway. Beautiful views and spacious accommodations.
The cabin was all I hoped for. It was spotless and very comfortable. The management company was very courteous and informative. Will definately rent the cabin again soon.
this cabin is very nice and clean and the view from the balcony is beautiful. we spent most of our time out there is was great. my only complaint was the bed on the 1st floor but other than that it was great.
This property was clean and beautifully maintained. They had all the amenities you need to stay as your home away from home. The hot tub was a great way to relax and hang out after hiking too. The only thing we would say is that the mattresses need to be updated in all bedrooms. They were either to firm or soft.
We had a wonderful time at The Pinnacle for four nights in late June, and enjoyed some local hikes in the area and general relaxation. There were only five of us with two small dogs, so there was plenty of space to spread out. We’d come back again in a heartbeat!
Our party consisted of three brothers in our 70’s and 80’s. Two brothers are from out of state. The inside of the home was spotless. The rooms were expansive. We has some problems with. The TV (looking for local, live programming) but soon understood what you see is what you get. The bid selling point is the view. It is spectacular. All in all, it was great!
We had a really nice stay. Monica was extremely responsive when we needed something. The views from the deck were stunning. The kids also had so much fun and we would stay here again.
We loved our stay at Bear’s Den in Idyllwild for two nights for a quick getaway! We are a family of fine including three grown boys. We hiked the Ernie Maxwell trail one day for an easier hike and then we hiked Devil’s Slide the next day, which was a little longer and more strenuous. We loved relaxing on the deck among the beautiful trees before getting ready for dinner both nights. Then after dinner we loved the jacuzzi!!! We didn’t need the kitchen too much, but it was nice and clean. We had more than enough space for the five of us and we would definitely stay there again! We didn’t walk anywhere from the house. Everything was a which drive away.
Well awaited stay. This lovely cabin was clean, well-stocked, plenty of room for our girl's weekend. "Just what the Dr ordered". The staff at New Spirit were very friendly and helpful.
Everything was as presented. The deck was amazing. We spent a lot of time outside, but were perfectly content to stay at the house rather than sightseeing. We were out each night shooting photos of the Milky Way perfectly framed between the trees off the deck. The house was not for people with significant disabilities, but we were very content there. Thanks for a great stay!
Can’t wait to come back to this property - gorgeous views!
The property and amenities were as described. It was clean and well maintained. The property manger left me his number in case I ran into an issues. I would recommend this retreat to anyone wishing to get away for the weekend. The town was a quick drive down the road.
We loved this home. My husband and I both needed a getaway from the city, and it was so beautiful and serene. This house is an absolute dream home, beautiful architecture, stunning view, incredible deck, and still cozy and comfortable. We'd love to stay there again.
Our family had a great time @ Lily Rock over Thanksgiving. It was very clean and well stocked. You really do not need to bring any kitchen items or towels. Beds were comfortable. Wish there was more lighting and the upstairs needs to be properly explained. It is entirely an open loft. Two sides each have a Queen and 2 twins, the middle is a partially walled off room with door that has access to a shared bathroom upstairs. The floor is VERY creaky for those sleeping downstairs. I would definitely return with my family!
This was our second time staying at the Peaceful Pines, and we enjoyed it just as much as the first. The home is lovely, spacious, and so well appointed. We found the beds and linens wonderfully comfortable and the living room the perfect cozy gathering place. Our dogs loved exploring the fully fenced and flat backyard - such a rare find. We look forward to returning again soon!
Our family has been renting this house for the last 10 years! We love it & always look forward to it! Perfect location, walkable to town & very comfy accommodations! We would love a keypad entrance rather than picking up a key. Other than that... no complaints!
We had a wonderful stay at this cottage and wouldn't hesitate to stay here again! The cabin is comfortable and well-stocked. We also loved the backyard being fenced so our pup and toddler could roam around. The property is private, but it is very close to everything including the town center and the nature center. We look forward to our next stay!
