Hear from our guests about their experiences with New Spirit Vacation Homes.
This place was perfect for our group of 8! Everything you need is in this cabin! The toaster oven is even a Breville brand! Also, there’s no point in leaving because the views are absolutely amazing & the hot tub while watching the sunset is very relaxing! My husband brought his Sky Light Projector, which looked really cool on the ceiling of the dome at night time! I would book with this company again because of how clean & attention to detail everything was!
Had a great time exploring trails and playing in the snow. Cabin was roomy and great.
This is our third time renting from Sprit and this place - once again - does not disappoint, The house is very nice and the deck is extremely comfortable. And I cannot say enough about the view. If possible, it is ever better than described. The house was clean and ready to go. They outfit it like a hotel! They even have robes! Six adults (my family) went up for Thanksgiving and there was everything we would need to cook our feast.
Finally - service is amazing. They are extremely responsive.
Will be back - and if you can't get this house, we can vouch for Spirit on any home.
We were all thrilled with this house and would absolutely stay here again. The house is even better in person and is spotless! Really unique property and that view is incredible. Everyone we spoke to, especially Michaela, was incredibly helpful. Best rental experience to date. Thank you all for ensuring that we had a stress free weekend. I can't wait to visit again!
Absolutely wonderful in every way possible. Location ambience clean fun and beyond our expectations. Would recommend to everyone!! New spirit vac staff more than helpful friendly and sincere and real.
This is our favorite cabin in Idyllwild. Spectacular architecture, views, and artwork. New Spirit Vacation Homes staff are always easy to work with, kind and fast.
Absolutely awesome stay. Wonderful deck with outstanding views. Inside, comfortable with everything well thought and working smoothly. Great heater, awesome chimney, comfy beds, flawless internet, great views from inside too, cool Jacuzzi, BBQ, games, etc. A very nice experience.
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.
Lovely quaint cabin just outside of town. Very clean and well laid out. And Nickie and Monica - always the best team to work with.
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!
Nana and Papa's place couldn't be more perfect! The layout of the home allows everyone space and with plenty of areas to sit outside it was tranquil.The location of the property was perfect as it is close to town and yet far enough away to enjoy the quiet of the night.
Fully stocked kitchen. The hot tub was perfect. We also loved the fireplace . 2 private bedrooms and 3rd room is up in the loft with 2 twin and 1 full beds. Would definitely stay here again.
Sky Rock Lodge was a delightful and cozy cabin retreat. Ample space for the four of us, lovely fireplace, windows to enjoy the outside snow, space for games, great kitchen, private master bedrooms and an unbeatable loft bedroom. Although we had extra beds and could have taken one of the masters, three of us chose to share the cozy loft! Management went above and beyond servicing us... kudos to each of them, thank you!
We were in town to visit family in nearby Indian Wells.Condo was very clean and well laid out and furnished. As it was end of April things were quiet in the transition from winter to summer heat. Pool was just across the very lightly traveled road and well maintained as was the whole property and the rental itself. We'd be happy to stay here 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!
Spent a 4-day weekend at the home with 3 adults and 4 active children (ages 5, 7, 7 and 8yo). The kids had a blast playing around the creek that runs just 10 yards from the back deck, and we walked along the trail to town (takes 5-30 mins depending on how distracted you get with the beautiful trees and playground!). The fireplace was toasty and kitchen was well-stocked, though one of the stove burners didn't work and it's a really old stove/oven and dishwasher. Everything else was wonderful and we will definitely return for a future visit!
What a beautiful home! The Tree House is right along the creek, close to town, beautiful large living room that was open to kitchen and dining areas. Many updates throughout the house that showed the owner cares about maintaining a nice property. Great for our large group with kids. The kids loved the loft, there were lots of games, and great creek exploration right outside. The scenery from the patio was lovely. We did lots of bird and squirrel watching and grilling out there. We even roasted marshmallows on the fire pit. We could stroll along the creek (considered a "hike" for our toddlers, but only a half mile) right into town. Easy access to the park for the kids and the great new brewery for the adults (though the kids loved bocce ball there too). Location and condition were amazing!
Other notes: There is one bedroom that is significantly smaller than others, so family room equity was a challenge (which it always seems to be). ALso, we had an incident where a glass lamp shade fell from the central ceiling fan. Monica from New Spirit was easily reached in the late evening. She sent out a maid to clean and a repair man to take a look at it first thing in the morning. Since we could not use this central fan, they brought us additional fans (this was a VERY hot weekend) and a lovely bottle of wine.
All the employees we worked with were friendly and helpful, excellent customer service. We would definitely recommend this company and the Tree House and will be back for future stays :-)
Thank you New Spirit!
The Leavitts and Company!
This home is a 24 hour delight. No matter the time of day as long as the moon is out, you can step out on the deck and enjoy the beauty and quiet of the Mountains. It is close enough to the center of town to hear the activities of the day waft over the pines but not close enough to become annoyed with traffic noise. Lots of stairs to help build your leg muscles through daily living. New appliances and the staff responded quickly to any of our concerns. Lovely visit.
"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.
As soon as approaching Crestview, front outlay of the cabin is very warm and welcoming. As soon as walking inside, your presented with ample wide living room that is very beautiful and esthetically pleasing and stress free. Big ample kitchen to cook and host friends and families and not to mention warm heating to counter the cold �� overall, my family and I were very pleased with crestview lodge!
I took my father on 3-night get-away in Idyllwild. We needed a one level home and a hot tub. This home was ideal. The beds were comfortable and the cabin was very cozy. The only complaint I have is the shower in the second bedroom. I could not adjust the water temperature and could not use it.
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!
I’ve been renting g from new spirit vacation rentals since 2021 and I love all their homes very clean accommodating the rentals this rental is very close to town we walked to town it’s just down the street about a 10 min walk very quiet and the home had air conditioning a plus it was very hot 4 th of July weekend very large home it says 4 bedroom but can easily be a 5 bedroom plenty of room and beds me and my family enjoyed our stay I’m never disappointed with new spirit rentals highly recommend
The house was unique, big and very clean. Great location and 1/2 mile walk to town in the snow was fun!
My daughter and I had a great experience and our cottage was really cute and the staff Was so helpful.
This cottage was perfect for a weekend stay for my partner, our dog, and me. Check-in was quick and the team was very responsive to any communication. The cottage was quaint with everything we needed. We enjoyed the hot tub and fenced-in yard. The place is a quick walk to lots of shops and restaurants in the center of town.
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.
We had a great time! Would definitely rent this house again.
We enjoyed our stay at Idyllwild. It is a beautiful village with lots of hiking trails around. The cabin was great – spacious, clean, and had more than we expected. The jacuzzi, after long hikes, was delightful. We liked that we could walk to the center of the village within 10 min. The village offers art galleries, gift shops, and excellent restaurants. Our kids loved the painting ceramics class. Two hours away from LA is an easy drive and a great place to visit.
One of our favorite places. Great vintage cabin on Strawberry Creek with charming decor and nice deck.
Wonderful experience. Quiet location with running stream behind cabin made for a peaceful and serene experience.
This house has a great view and was very comfortable for our family. It had everything we needed. It stayed warm with all the snow.
Place was beautiful and well kept. Only complaint would be that the hot tub did not fully heat up until the 2nd day. Otherwise, we fully enjoyed our stay.
Plenty of space for our family of five and super clean. Amazing views! Awesome location! Close to restaurants, shopping, snowboarding, and snow tubing! We’ll be back. Thanks!
We came here for a grief retreat with our therapist and the setting was absolutely everything we expected
Great place and very comfortable. I would like to add that the driveway is steep, the car port extremely small ( able to park a van but a real squeeze to get out) and the railroad ties are loose and uneven. Plenty of dishes, silverware and cooking utensils. I 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.
This is an amazing property. Thank you to Monica and the team for making this happen last minute!! Don’t use your GPS you will get lost. The deck is so nice we rarely spent time inside. Definitely recommend.
We enjoyed staying here during a winter storm. It was WONDERFUL! And what a beautiful cabin!
The cabin was perfect for family of nine (5 teens, 4 adults). The best feature was the beautiful view on the ample deck. After long day, it was nice to be able to relax in the Jacuzzi, play pool, and enjoy a hot meal that we cooked in the well-stocked kitchen. We would return here in a heartbeat. Bring sleep eye masks so the sun doesn't wake you in the morning. There are no windows coverings in the bedrooms.
This cabin provides a great reason to escape for a weekend and enjoy the town of Idyllwild. The cabin is equipped with sufficient basics to have an enjoyable weekend with stunning views.
We absolutely loved staying at the Lily rock Lodge!
The house is extremely spacious with an open concept downstairs. We enjoyed all the games that were available to us, including a pool table and a Magnetic dartboard, as well as organ to play. We had 4 children and it kept them occupied��
The house was very clean and fully stocked with everything you could think of in the kitchen and the bathrooms! They even had towel warming rack in the downstairs bathroom.
The Jacuzzi was very enjoyable and extremely clean. It stayed on the entire time which was nice. We did not have to worry about turning it on or off the temperature was perfect.
The cabin itself was beautiful, beautiful location, and gorgeous views! the driveway was extremely easy to get in and out of.
The Cons:
The upstairs floor creeks very loudly throughout the entire upstairs, if you are in the downstairs bedroom, it is extremely loud. there was a large leak in the downstairs bathroom from the upstairs shower and when we called the property management, they came out and dealt with it immediately.
The only other complaint that I would have is they charge $50 per hour for early check-in and late check out.
I do recommend this cabin to others. We had a lovely time..
