Hear from our guests about their experiences with New Spirit Vacation Homes.
We ad a great relaxing weekend.We went to celebrate my husbands 70th birthday with my family It was fully stocked with everything.The stairs was a little much but we managed fine
We stayed at the Lily Rock Lodge for two nights, and it was everything we wanted and more. Perfect location, but close enough to town to get anything we'd need. The hot tub and pool table were wonderful additions. The layout is unconventional, but it worked for us. Very easy check in/ check out process, and the management was quick to respond to any questions. Stay here!
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.
This is our second time staying here. We love it! The jacuzzi is so nice, already warm when we arrived. The house is clean and had everything we needed. Lidia was a great help!
We would stay here again for sure!!
Sunset Perch was the perfect location for our recent getaway. What a view!! Gorgeous sunrise and sunset. The cabin had everything to make our stay pleasant. Kitchen was equipped for all our cooking/baking needs. The bbq and hot tub was a big plus. Very peaceful location and cabin was very cozy and inviting. Love all the big windows. Overall, a very enjoyable stay. Thank you.
Second time staying in this house and absolutely love it!!!!
Great Cabin - Lots of room and easy walk to town / big yard. Only thing I'd note is while the backyard is fenced in, if you have a smaller dog, not sure the fence would keep them in, and there was one place we had to move some stuff to block a missing section of fence. Not an issue with our St. Bernard though (who liked the cabin and yard as well) and is just way too big and clumsy to escape.
Went up during the snow storm. Had a great time. The yard is awesome. I will rent it in the summer so we can use the back yard and bbq. Loved the old stove.
Clean and available when they said. Close to town. Plenty of room. Butcher block peninsula was perfect for making Christmas cookies. We will definitely come back.
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!
it was perfect plenty of room, beautiful views, clean and useable. We all loved it.
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!
Perfect home for large families with pets. This is our 3rd time staying here and have loved it each time.Large hime with plenty of kitchen seating for dinners and game nights. Beds are comfortable. Fenced in yard allows you to safely let your dogs out to play. Short walk to town. Will be back.
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!
Our family stayed in "Three Gazing Stars" for 8 days. We had a lovely experience. My 2 year old was loving just walking in the woods and throwing sticks in Lake Hemet and Lake Fulmor. The hosts were attentive and gracious. We were extremely pleased and the time away from the city was just what we all needed. We will be back for sure! The only quibble I had was that there are rattlesnakes on the compound. I know, of course there are! But it would have been nice to see a reminder note in the welcome folder to keep it on our mind. We found this out the hard way as our dog got bit by a rattlesnake. Not anyone's fault of course but it was an unexpected bill. He's better by the way.
The view is awesome. Close enough to walk to downtown. The house is really nice - I wish I owned it. Plenty of bedrooms, bathrooms, and a nice big living room and patio... We could not have had a better time. And a big thanks to New Spirit - I consider myself lucky to be a return customer.
The house is cozy, clean and has everything needed for a perfect stay. We felt welcome and comfortable. Highly recommended!
We wanted a safe social distancing vacation and found the peace and family time we were looking for in thus delightful cabin. Even the older kids fell in love. Everyone had their own room and bed and the main room with gorgeous views was perfect for game nights.
Overall, I would describe our stay at the Lilac House as magical. The home has a cabin in the woods rustic feel that made us feel that we were alone in the woods despite being in the middle of a neighborhood. We spent mornings with Campfyre Coffee on the deck and evenings in the hot-tub watching the stars. My only complaints were the lack of curtains on the front windows, and some windows didn't open or needed to be propped to stay open but, added to the rustic charm.
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 Dairy Farm was so lovey and well appointed. The uniqueness and charm added so much to our stay.
Easy booking. We loved staying is this cute and cozy cottage. Comfy bed and just the right size for a romantic getaway. Roomy fenced backyard with a relaxing spa. Perfect for 2. Within walking distance to town, but not too close to be bothered by traffic noise.
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 loved our long weekend in Idyllwild at Golden Sunshine. This is a very charming, welcoming home with everything you need for a relaxing weekend in the woods. The kitchen was well-equipped for cooking great meals, the living spaces were great for playing games, watching movies and hanging out with friends. We spent some time playing games on the deck and would have loved a few more adirondack chairs for watching the sunset, but other than that we had the best time. Would recommend for couples and families looking for a spacious home in a relaxing environment with excellent views. Also, an easy 7 min drive to town for food and amenities.
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.
We enjoyed our stay here very much. The home very spacious and the bedrooms were very comfortable. The master bath with big tub and skylight was awesome. After a long day outdoors, we like to get cozy and the fireplace was so nice. The main living room furniture could use some updating with a larger sofa and bigger TV. The blinds were a bit difficult to put up and down. The bedding seemed old and could use new duvets, comforters and blankets. Overall, this place was great.
This is my second time staying in this house and I plan to keep up the tradition! I absolutely love this house, it is amazing.
Amazing stay! Beautiful place. Fast walk to town. Lovely to sit outside and watch the creek.
This rental made for a perfect weekend getaway. It was a cozy cabin with plenty of room for our guests. The deck and view in the photos do not disappoint. We had bright sunrise for coffee each morning and cool sky colors each evening.
I had a great and peaceful time at the residence. Location and views are phenomenal. The property is well kept and has many amenities which includes a jacuzzi.
My friends and I stayed at this house for one night. Everything was absolutely gorgeous. The house was immaculately clean, the kitchen was well equipped and oh my God what a beautiful view!!!
Great experience , very relaxing. Home was amazing very comfortable and clean. Very quiet location. We had local places to go eat and to the store . Overall amazing experience. Loved the home.
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.
The cabin was huge and had plenty of up to date amenities. Plenty of room for our family of 5. Close enough to the main village area and the property had plenty of parking for our two vehicles. The heater and fireplace worked great at keeping the cabin warm even with the snow outside. Beds were comfortable and tons of room to lounge around.
Our time in the Bears Den Cabin was exceptional. Plenty of room and the kitchen was fully stocked with pots, pans and flatware. We did have a you bird stuck in the fireplace when we arrived but we got him out safely.
We had 5 wonderful days to spend with our 2 dogs and older kids. They delivered wood for us and the home provided all necessary needs to stay in the best comfort. The balcony view was amazing! Watched the hawks screech and soar right over our heads. The home doorways was blessed and we felt warm and protected. The tub is in the floor which was weird but cool! The loft bedroom again wake up to a beautiful sunrise over looking the mountain trees and some snow. This is our 2nd time with Spirit. Love love love it!!
Stayed here for a quick weekend getaway. The moment you walk in you are blown away by the view. It gets even better when you walk up to the master bedroom. Definitely coming back. The house is a little old, but everything works great.
Two small families and two dogs were the perfect size for this home. We all loved the big beautiful backyard and the hot tub was super clean. The house had a homey feel it was very updated and clean and decorated in great taste. It’s super close to town and the nature center so we enjoyed our daily excursions
We got lost because we didnt follow staff instructions ��♀️ but after finding the home we were over the moon with this house!! Has a well stocked game room which served us well as I have children, I HARDLY SAW THEM ALL WEEKEND!!!! Talk about a VACATION ��. The upstairs living area has a beautiful LARGE sectional and VIDEO GAMES!!! Hardly saw my husband all weekend: SCORE!!! jk, the house is well stocked and beautiful. The views were amazing, although finding it was a bit of a mission but totally worth it! One thing though, on our last day my daughter found herself face to face with a small mouse. I spoke with the management company and suggested they move the location on their trashcans as it came in through where those cans are. Overall, AWESOME HOUSE, would consider going back if the EXTRA guest isnt occupying it, ha ha ha.
The house was great, views were lovely. Felt isolated despite some audible street noise (from 243) when out on the deck. Kitchen remarkably well stocked. Hot tub was private enough to skinny dip. Lots of trouble getting TV streaming to work, staff came next day to address.
Very well kept rental. I was pleased by the well stocked kitchen for cooking!!!
We were looking for the color changes in the trees and we were pleasantly pleased. Walking distance from the coffee shop : ), nestled among the trees, clean and warm. Suggestion: need reading lamps in the living room.
New Spirit staff extremely helpful. Thank you Gabby and Maintenance Man. Yes, I would stay here again.
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!
First time in Idyllwild, friends made the accommodations for us. We loved how rustic the feel of being there. First time to Idyllwild and enjoyed it very much. Thank you
Everything was amazing!!! The staff super nice, the cabin had a beautiful view!! It’s great for having a good time with family and friends... thank you New spirit cabin for everything.... We’ll go back again!!!
