Mixed Feelings

"We are regulars and thought the view from this property was absolutely breathtaking! Maybe one of the best views from anywhere we have ever stayed. The house was spacious and they had more than enough towels for the six of us to enjoy the hot tub and shower as needed. The kitchen was well stocked but we couldn’t find sheet pans! We ended up buying a couple of disposable ones at the nearby store and problem solved! Now for the downside of our stay. The microwave is unbelievably high up and was unusable for 5 foot me. I had to rely on the taller folks in our party.

There were ants upstairs and downstairs—-little tiny sugar ants. We sprayed for them ourselves and they honestly never went away. We had to be mindful to put things away pretty quickly or the ants would be on it. The other thing that was a big problem is at lease one mouse was in the home too. The property manager told us that when it’s hot like this, they’re bound to get in. They did offer to set a trap, but we only had one more day to go and a trap going off would be traumatic for the kids. We opted to just wait it out. They obviously knew about the mouse because we found a trap in the pantry that had been placed before we got there. There were some minor issues with cleanliness that we took care of ourselves with wipes we usually travel with anyway. I would have appreciated a discount from the property manager given the hassle of what we dealt with, but that was never offered. Overall, we had a nice stay, but we were a bit on edge. In its current condition, I would not recommend to a friend. With a bit more attention to cleanliness and removal of pests, I would happily return. "

Beautiful Frank Lloyd Wright Style Home

"This is a well-cared for home in the style of Frank Lloyd Wright. The master bedroom was spacious with a comfortable mattress (might have been a Tempur-Pedic) and high-quality bedding. The kitchen was well appointed. The view from the deck was spectacular with comfy seating for a group. There was so much attention to detail from this home from the stone paths from the carport to the front door to the thick bath towels next to the back door to obviously be used for the hot tub. This home seemed like a home. "

Great Family Celebration House!

"We came to Idyllwild with our daughter, son-in-law, son and our dogs to celebrate my 65th birthday. The home is well stocked and super homey. The view is everything, and the hot tub was delightful! Two of the bedrooms are more like lofts, and the property isn't fully fenced, but our dogs don't bolt and we were with family so it was all good. They need to remove "ping pong table" from the listing, as the table is in the carport, folded up. Super convenient location and excellent property management."

Comfortable for family of 7 with great view

"The rental was clean and comfortable and we enjoyed our stay. The capacity in this rental needs to be updated. There is a queen bed in the basement and a door to the basement room. There is another queen in a room with a curtain, but otherwise open to the living space and a loft bedroom with a queen and a futon and no curtain. Fine for a large family, but not a ton of privacy, otherwise. We enjoyed the Hot tub that worked great. Didn’t see a ping-pong table. "

Another amazing stay!

"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."

Fabulous Views

"Lovely time catching up with son once we all were vaccinated. Very open floor plan, upstairs bedrooms have permanant openings to main living area, so better suited to those folks who don't have privacy issues and all retire for evening around the same time. Deck is right above a main highway through town and traffic noise was notable, BUT THE View is astounding. Kitchen is very sparse in cooking utensils/serving pieces leading to unning dishwasher quite often. It is an easy walk to town square and all the eateries there, so if that is your prefered choice for meals that shouldn't be a problem. "
