Loved this place! Would stay again! We stayed in one of the themed rooms, specifically the summer room The rustic decor is lovely, and each room has a fireplace with a gorgeous hand-carved mantle They provide a complimentary bundle of wood for the first night

And then it’s $8 for an additional bundle, that they will deliver to your door if you request it The rooms were clean and comfortable The weather was great so we enjoyed sitting out in the deck under the umbrella for awhileAlso, we arrived late at night on our first night We indicated a 10pm arrival when we made our reservation The night of, the Inn called to confirm our arrival time and since the office would be closed, they left a key, map, and info for us in a specified location for when we arrived It was incredibly thoughtful and helpful!Each member of the staff we talked to was so friendly and helpful We would love to stay here again!

Elisa Flores

We love the cabins and rooms, very cozy, very clean, the staff including cleaning staff very friendly and attentive, the cabins are very complete with everything you need, the only thing I think is needed is a little more furniture in the bathrooms, sometimes it is difficult for us to store our things, they could put some shelves for example and it would be easier to put things Other than that we love to stay at this place!

Comfortable with a few little issues The room phone wasn’t working We were trying to call the front desk to report that the toilet (which we hadn’t used yet) was clogged

Also, the mini fridge was frosted over & stopped working, until we thawed it outI still gave it 4 stars though because they include a nice continental breakfast, the beds were comfortable, the room was clean, the staff was nice, & it’s a nice area to stay

Mitchell R

I’d like to start this review with the best part of our experience, Lindsey (the receptionist) was extremely helpful, kind, and accommodating helping to rectify a booking mistake on my part The room is beautiful, large, very clean, and easily accessible The room came stocked with a variety of quality Neutrogena products

We will definitely be staying here again First choice of hotels near the Morongo casino!***NEXT DAY EDIT***Best continental breakfast I’ve ever had, and they accommodated a late checkout!

It’s Mr. Frank

Nice facility Casino is clean and well managed Payouts on slots seem slim but table games can get you back on track with a basic knowledge of the games

Food choices are decent and there is no bad food to be had Floor staff are always present and helpfulValet or Self Parking with easeWorth a visit or stay Outlet Stores are very close and everything is freeway adjacentI look forward to staying in the hotel for a 3 day weekend to give an expanded review

Chuck Wood

We are not regulars here just passing throughI thought it was very clean, And definitely a lively casino with a lot of patrons Look like it had some good dining choices

Never made it past the casino floor to any of the rooms Security wouldn’t let us view the pool area Staff at the store we stopped in was very nice

Roy Steele

I went to the Morongo Casino and Spa with friends and had a great time This hotel, casino, and spa, is a world class destination in a beautiful setting in the California desert The hotel tower rises like a Phoenix in the desert, and there’s a gorgeous pool and spa

It was snowing in the mountains the day I visited and it was cold outside while it was warm in the casinoThe gaming floor is huge and a high tech wonder! All the slot machines are video based with colorful displays that are amazing You can gamble a penny, a nickel, quarter, dollar, a ten, or twenty on up In other words, there is something for everyoneThere’s plenty to do! With slots and table games including blackjack, video poker, and several bars and a multitude of restaurants, you never have to leave If you do want to explore, one of the largest outlet malls in the United States is right next door, and there’s a Starbucks right there too Plus Palm Springs/Hollywood East is just 20 minutes away by carAdmittedly, I’m not a gambler, though me and my gambling friends had fun at the Morongo Casino! Be sure to visit and tell them Roy sent you! Cheers!

Erin Channis

Very cute, a short walk to town so you can leave the car and not worry about parking Staff was friendly and social but we had plenty of privacy Great little deck overlooking the hills and forest

Interior was rustic but very clean, shower looks to have been re-tiled fairly recently as it’s in great shape Great, charming place with flowering vines hanging off the roof and fat little bumblebees bumping around

Kristen

Adorable rustic lodging but for the cost, there were a bigger expectations for the quality of linens, appliances and overall cleanliness Upon entry we began to notice the dust on the ceiling, the extremely worn curtains, then the holes and wear on the bed sheets Having a pet friendly room was a delight but became concerning when our pet began smelling the linens as though they weren’t thoroughly cleaned

Only booking for a night, we decided to give it a go and tried to stay positive We wound up having a restless, sleepless night We all struggled with allergies by morning and fought to get a comfortable on the mattress that are placed on simple temporary mattress frames The only real positive was the how closely it is located to everything and the provided breakfast

Lisa Pacheco / Telles

I rate a 4 because the pool was not open When Every other motel had thier’s open The lady stated the reason it’s closed was because the city has not approved them to open

I was so disappointed I called other motels to check That’s how I knew other pools where openOther then that the service was great Location was fine Housekeeper was awesome ✌️&❤️

Andrea Garcia

Nina, not sure correct spelling of name but she was pleasant I called in and requested early check in and she got our room ready within thirty mins and the extra towels and pillows in the room were in the room as requested when booked The beds were some of the most comfortable we’ve ever experienced and we’ve stayed at higher end hotels but this was sleeping on a cloud

The room was clean and the water pressure in the shower was wonderful!! The tv is direct tv and had all the channels and the pool was enjoyable and it’s 6ft deep and the jacuzzi was hot Didn’t get to enjoy breakfast decided to sleep in a little longer but nonetheless we will be staying here again Really pleased

Jahnae Johnson

HORRIBLE experience Missed a wedding and weekend in the area because I was charged three times which placed me negative Heed the reviews and steer clear of this place

This is one of the few occasions where I wished I listened to my fellow commenters and DIDNT give this place a chance Ruined three month old plans Management lacks compassion and instead of trying to remedy the issue, they questioned my intelligence Spare your bad experience and book some place else I’m really considering suing this establishment for the experience I had my 6 month old son and husband with me Stranded in an unfamiliar city without funding due to incompetence and lack of compassion

We had an amazing time in this cozy cabin Bed is super comfy, couches are comfy, it had everything we needed Wish I’d known there was a full on kitchen and a Keurig I would have definitely made more use of it

Close walk to the town Overall we loved it Management was in constant communication with us and we really appreciated it We will definitely be returning Thank you!!

Mia J

Nice place to stay, beautifully decorated and good amenities however we couldn’t sleep at night because PINE CONE room does not have blockout curtains and it faces a street light, the room is terribly bright all night long Oddly, there’s only a single floor lamp to light the whole bedroom/lounge area also, making functional activities at night impossible The pictures show other lights by the bed and on the mantle but these are no longer in the room

If you’re going to stay I would recommend a different cabin

Matthew Stroud

We stayed in Cedar Den The room was clean as were the linens and the towels The kitchenette was well stocked for almost any kind of cooking

It was quiet (except for the frogs outside!) That said, there is some room for improvement In the bathroom, the toilet seat was loose, there was no toilet paper holder, there was no shelf or other horizontal surface to put things on other than half of the toilet tank lid, there was no soap available at the sink (one had to use the soap in the shower), there was no towel bar (only 2 garment hooks on the door) There were no bath towels, only bath sheets, which we found ungainly to use, and the shower curtain didn’t fit inside the shower unit so that there was a lot of water on the bathroom floor after each shower The lone electrical plug in the bathroom was loose and the bathroom window had no screen In the main bedroom, the ceiling fan appeared to be hanging by exposed wiring, the pillows were enormous and extremely hard In the smaller bedroom, both beds were wobbly and creaky, and there was only one outlet in the room There were ceiling fans in both bedrooms, but only one undersized AC unit in the living room (and it can get to 100 in Idyllwild); likewise the only heater was in the living room, with no heat source in the bedrooms We both suffered from allergic reactions to the strong disinfectant smell as well as the potpourri and decaying orange slices that were part of the decor Finally, the parking place for this unit is wedged in between a sharp drop-off and a large tree Most of these inconveniences could be easily fixed, thus making a night’s stay much more pleasant

If I could put negative stars I would! Our room had NO towels When we called down to ask for some, no answer on the phone When we walked downstairs, nobody was at the desk…we waited for 45 minutes for an employee

Nobody ever came! Our room had RAZOR BLADES on the floor Hair clumps LOTS of hair clumps in the bed! Nobody cared when we called to bring these items to their attention We were simply told “Oh yeah, this is common for our hotel Nothing unusual there!” Management will not call us back and bother to even try to make things right! We paid $300 for one night in the most DISGUSTING and FILTHY hotel ever I do NOT recommend this place at all!!!!! GROSS

J Califas

Room smelled wierd The pillows were missing pillow covers and the sheets looked kinda dirty There was a hair scrunchy in the shower from the prior guest

We had to make multiple trips to the front desk to address this Customer service was good but I wish they paid better attention to cleanliness so it would avoid the trouble of bothering them to fix Will most likely not be staying here again

D Haigler

Our stay started off by entering a room that wasn’t prepped for a stay, the couch and table were flipped as if someone just got done with sleeping in the room So we had to go back and show the front desk and they gave us a new room Got all tucked into bed when we woke up the AC had gone out in the room to another room move so we moved rooms in less then 24hr period very inconvenient

When we finally got settled in the 3rd floor was very very hot and it had an odor as smelled if they just did a carpet cleaning, and with 100degree heat it didn’t mix well I would truly say that The gentleman at the front desk his name was Felipe helped us with a friendly smile and felt like he was doing everything in his power to male us feel welcome But overall wasn’t satisfied with the hotel The last thing that was inconvenient, in the description they had a spa but when we went out to check it out it was cemented in which sucked

The rooms were nice, but not what we expected They were clean and looked wonderful, but we expected a bit more roomOverall great experience!

Nicholas Cox

Rented a small conference room here to film a deposition; so I don’t know what the actual rooms are like The lobby is beautiful Friendly staff

They only gave us access to the free/open “lobby” wifi It seems to be working well, I just wish we could have been given access to a more secure networkThe coffee in the breakfast area is fresh and tasty Which is important because I take it blackLots of options for food nearby Whatever you’re into, looks like they might have it

Had a horrible stay here last week, my wife and I should have known what we were in for when we arrived to an empty parking lot and all the doors were locked and the place was in shambles Long story short

when the hostess did arrive later after we called, she was very rude And that unfriendly attitude continued whenever we encountered her There is a reason this place was deserted when most the other spots in town were buzzing with guest I’m sure they don’t get repeat guest at this inn

Chiara Leroy

I did a solo weekend getaway trip to Idyllwild so that I could disconnect and have some much-needed R&R Strawberry Creek delivered on that and thensome Everyone was warm and friendly and very hospitable

The breakfast was delicious The room was cozy and impeccably clean I really enjoyed my little escape and am looking forward to returning again soon!

Someshree Rampersad

Rude as hell We booked this room and drove 3 hours to get there only to be told by the most unfriendly front desk person that they have cancelled our reservation because I did not have a billing address listed, and that the roomWould not allow for 2 adults and a child She was mean to my kid, and unhelpful

She had shut and locked their doors When my husband went back to clarify, she wouldn’t even open the door Luckily We got our money back

We loved our stay here! My husband and I traveled with our daughter from Northern Indiana so he could put on their inter company fishing tournament at Lake Hemet The cabin was clean and perfect for our stay, the grounds were beautiful and the staff was helpful and accommodating Adam came up with the last of the peanuts much to my daughters delight so she could feed the squirrels on our deck

We hit a little snafu with the limited parking and our cargo trailer but Adam was able to suggest a solution that worked perfectly
