bedrooms, two bathrooms, a kitchen, dining room, and a floating deck high in the treetops. There is also a fully-enclosed side yard where your pup can run and play. Nearby, visitors and their pets can enjoy hiking at scenic Idyllwild Regional Park.

Everything about this place was perfect for our long weekend getaway with our pups. The beautiful balcony was perfect for morning coffees and evening drinks. The wood stove was easy to use and kept the place warm and cozy. The enclosed dog run was perfect for letting our pups outside without worry of him chasing a squirrel into the wild:). If you are considering this place for your trip then do yourself a favor and book it, you will love it. Definitely going to be our first choice for future trips to the area.

Me, my wife and our dog stayed at Ridgeway Hideaway for a month and cannot recommend it highly enough! Great location close to town but walkable to a market, serene neighborhood, excellent trail access and ample outdoor space made it the perfect work from home getaway. Our dog especially enjoyed the fenced in, hillside backyard.

My stay with Fireside was much more than I expected! The pictures don’t do this place justice. It’s so charming and cozy! I loved having a fireplace in the room, we definitely took advantage of that! The heaters all worked great as well. To my surprise, our room also included a little gated area on the side, it works out perfectly if you’re bringing your pet. The room also included a little kitchenette, coffee maker, and all the basics. The staff was very friendly and accommodating. This place was very affordable and and just what we wanted.
