We rented a large unit, and it was perfect for us. The Inn is rustic, like you'd expect in the mountains, but everything worked well. And we had our own parking space! Another plus was the location -- close to the town center and across the street from the little Catholic Church.
We had a wonderful stay at this very cosy cabin and truly enjoyed every moment. The location was lovely and convenient, the amenities were excellent, and everything was thoughtfully maintained. The staff were friendly and helpful throughout our stay, making us feel very welcome and comfortable. We would definitely recommend this place to anyone looking for a relaxing and enjoyable getaway!
We were in the Manzanita room. The room was better in person, than it was in pictures. Wasn't sure what would be all entailed with a kitchenette (as there were no pictures listed). It was a small bar size fridge, a microwave, keurig, toaster, kitchen sink, and stove top. The cupboards were supplied with plates/bowls/mugs/silverware/kitchen utensils/pots/pans.
The cabin is bigger than it looks in the pictures.
My only suggestion for improvement is to get some blackout curtains next to the bed. I had a hard time sleeping it was so bright in the room.
The cabin is in a great, very walkable location.
The property was safe for pets and the parking was easy. Adorable little cabin that was very cozy - great shower head, great bed - and right the center of town.

Bring your own firewood. Easy walk to town. Rustic but affordable. We would of liked a table and two chairs, we stayed in the redwood. The bed was comfortable.
Every time we stay, I’m reluctant to review online - the Fireside Inn feels like such a well kept secret. We love the Fireside Inn’s mix of location, accessibility, rustic charm, and ease of access. It’s all the benefits of a hotel with the privacy of an Airbnb. Will definitely be back next year
Everything is going to be falling in love with this place. Cozy, warm, comfortable and relaxed, you are enjoying the place like your own home. Thank you for your hospitality and services, for sure I will be back
It was just what we needed after our cabin in Idyllwild had a plumbing issue on Sunday that we couldn’t address until Monday. We made that decision late in the day and Fireside’s ABnB style self check in and clean comfortable rooms with a kitchenette allowed us to order food, relax a bit and sleep comfortably then get going the next morning to attack our cabin issue. Can’t say we’ll be back (hope not) but it’s a quiet yet close mountain spot if you want to spend time in Idyllwild.
Such a cozy cabin and attentive hosts. We loved our stay. The bed was incredibly soft and cozy… it was nearly impossible to get up the next day haha. Thanks so much! ♥️
