The property is beautiful and well kept. The walls between rooms are not insulated and you can hear every sound and even conversations.

Couples get away
The Pines is a great place to stay. The scenery and if you get a cabin that’s backed up to the woods is awesome on the grounds. Have a lot of great amenities. Also been there twice in the last month and we are looking to go back here shortly again for another short, stay close to town and little town of idyllwild is a great little place to walk around

Gem in the mountains
Enjoyable from start to finish. Check in was a breeze. Received text communication before checking in and reminder for checkout. Cabin was roomy and clean. Restaurant was nice with an inviting atmosphere. Activities for all ages. Great escape to be in nature but with all amenities needed for a comfortable stay.
