Cozy & Perfect
Absolutely love Fireside Inn! There was a storm in the area causing the shutdown of all power on the mountain but my room was still cozy warm due to their propane heat source! Also had hot water during the electricity shutdown. Highly recommend!

This was a very cozy cabin that was close to a lot in town making it easy to walk to and fro. The only complaint I have is the bathroom was small and I felt a bit cramped in there which is funny to me since I am only 5'5". I would come again but I might check out a different room.

The Fireside Inn is the coziest, most charming place I’ve ever stayed in Idyllwild. I was amazed by how close it is to downtown Idyllwild, the walkability was fantastic! We could easily stroll to all the shops, and the convenient parking was such a relief after a long drive. The interior was absolutely lovely. I couldn’t get enough of it.
