Bright & Charming 1 Bedroom Cottage with lake view

DonRating, 5 stars4 months ago
I love going to Sky Valley and spending a relaxing weekend there. I’ve stayed at many of the different properties and this was as nice as any of them. It’s really only good for one or two people. The host were very responsive to the few questions I did have.

Hidden Passage Zeus Cottage • Summer Special!

JoryRating, 5 stars3 weeks ago
Diane was an incredible host! Her and the Hidden Passage crew have created such a beautiful and peaceful oasis and made mine and my partner’s anniversary vacation an absolute dream! It truly felt like we were removed from society for a small moment and that’s exactly what we needed. The property was so well managed and kept so pristine! Every staff member we met on site was so kind and extremely helpful! I could not recommend this place enough! Also the pool rocks, we spent every single day in it!

Cozy mountain getaway, private cottage studio

HannaRating, 5 stars4 months ago
Absolutely wonderful stay at Michelle’s with our pups for a little getaway to mama nature. Met and exceeded our expectations. The thoughtfulness and care is apparent in every corner of the cottage. Super friendly and quick to respond to any questions. Great location - close to Idyllwild’s downtown and trails, yet tucked away enough to feel like you have the woods to yourself. Can’t recommend enough and look forward to staying again in the future. Thank you so much you two!

PradRating, 5 stars7 months ago
Had a great time relaxing and enjoying the amenities available here. Local community very friendly. Calm and relaxing vibes, very quiet when we were there… I guess it depends on what time of year to visit as it could get very busy here. Would love to visit once more and stay for the whole weekend.

Hidden Passage Athena Cottage • Summer Special!

AmberRating, 5 stars1 week ago
This was the fifth time I’ve stayed here. Diane and the staff are always friendly and responsive. The location is perfect because it’s off the beaten path, but isn’t too rustic. The swimming pool is really one of the biggest selling points for me. This time Diane recommended visiting a couple local spots and I really enjoyed them. The fact that it is about 45 minutes from Joshua tree national Park. So you’re close but not too close. It’s such a peaceful place, it always make sure I have at least a day and a half where I don’t have to leave the ranch at all!

Hot Springs, Tiny House, Desert Retreat 718

JeanneRating, 5 stars2 months ago
Carolyn’s place is well-stocked with towels, sheets and blankets. The second bedroom is more like a second living room, without closets, shelves or mirror. The location, directly across from the hot pools and horseshoe arena, and a four-minute walk to pickleball courts, is fabulous with a lake view. Kitchen is well-stocked with everything. House is bright, and the skylight in the bathroom is a great touch

Hidden Passage Muse Cottage • Summer Special!

MasonRating, 5 stars4 days ago
This cottage is located privately in the canyons of Joshua Tree. You have to take a dirt road to get in that takes 10 minutes give or take and my Honda Accord was able to access. The ranch is so quiet and beautiful. Truly you will feel disconnected from the hustle and bustle of life and will feel refreshed here. Best part is there is a creek on the property! You have to hike to the back of the cottage. Diane was super responsive and accommodating! Terrific and beautiful place.
