About this house rental
The Pinnacle is an extraordinary entertainer dream home set high in the San Jacinto Mountains in the artsy/music town of Idyllwild. Drive up your private driveway and prepare to be "wowed" by the incredible "Lily Rock" views and the beautiful untouched forest. You will feel inspired and relaxed as if you could touch the sky from one of (3) view decks and a master bath with your sunken tub. You will be greeted by not one but two beautiful waterfall features cascading from the hillside of your private fenced yard. Enter the leaded glass front door, and you will be drawn to the floor-to-ceiling windows framing the living room with high wood ceilings, a rock fireplace, and abundant natural light. This 4000 square foot home has plenty of room for the home group! The Pinnacle is perfect for those seeking top-of-the-line luxury.

The pluses: Gorgeous views and a great location. Bright and cheery spaces. Comfortable large beds for all. Nicely furnished common room and well-appointed kitchen. The elevator was a huge plus for a mobility challenged elder, and the hot tub was very nice after hiking. Sinks, ovens, and stovetop were fine for meal prep. The ping pong table saw some friendly competition.
The minuses: if you don't think mice are cute, this is not the house for you. The house is riddled with them as demonstrated by the droppings that appear overnight, the pitter patter of races in the walls overnight, the bright-eyed pinyon mouse who peeps out from behind the TV periodically, the frantic efforts of the one caught in a live trap hidden in my room, and the smell of decay from a downstairs storage space that must also be filled with traps and their victims. The appliances need attending to: dishwasher was impossible to load and run properly until we found rack wheels in a drawer and fixed it ourselves. The dryer took multiple cycles to dry even a small load. The freezer constantly leaked cold water on the floor. The decorative outdoor stream doesn't work (leaks through the liner) and there is an underground beehive across from the front door.
All that said, we are patient people and we had an excellent visit together. Please fix these items so others can enjoy the Pinnacle too.

There were 6 of us on the first night and 8 of us the next night and it was an absolute BLAST. Everyone had their own bed and most of us had their own room. What a luxury! The views were stunning. The kitchen was very well stocked which we used a lot! It was really easy to pick up and drop off the keys and people in the office were quick to respond to my questions and concerns despite me struggling to get the paperwork to them on time (I was working overtime the week prior and had no access to a printer or scanner). I will absolutely book with them again in the future.

Our group really enjoyed the property. There is some deferred maintenance, the exterior paint needs work, the decks are shaky in areas, the furniture is well-worn. We were there the weekend it stormed and it's clear that some of the exterior doors are missing weather stripping. Additionally, several of the kitchen cabinets need repair.

This house is in a great location, sits high above the city, and has excellent views. We had a great family time. Having said that, we won't return. It is worn down. Many of the beds are very uncomfortable. The dishwasher doesn't work. Having said this, if the price wasn't over $1,000/day, I wouldn't make these complaints. But at this price you expect better conditions.

We were a group of 12 adults on a work retreat. The house was perfect, spacious, well-appointed, and in a gorgeous location. We had everything we needed and it was clean and well maintained. Only downsides: The jacuzzi is very small and we would have liked a bigger one. Also, the smallest 'bedroom' is really like a closet with a rickety bunkbed in it.

Beautiful property close to town
Gorgeous and spacious property. The photos do not do it justice and I was pleasantly surprised when we arrived. Plenty of bedrooms and space for all 16 people in our party. We mostly enjoyed the outdoor spaces and played games in the garage and living room. Several people said they want to book the same property for a family holiday or another group setting. The driveway was STEEP and although it says close to town, I wouldn’t recommend walking because the house is uphill. Incredible views with multiple decks to enjoy

The house accommodated 9 of us very comfortably. Had a nice big kitchen. Elevator was wonderful as we had two handicap people. The ice maker & coffee machine did not work which was a bummer. I think the management company should have known that ahead of time so we could have been prepared. The house had way to many throw rugs & the bad part was all the corners that stood up. People kept tripping. Lucky we didn’t have a fall. Also seems strange to have 5 bedrooms downstairs & 1 bath. Overall we liked the house. A gorgeous setting.

The house is really big, stocked with anything you might need in the kitchen, plenty of towels, a working spa and good bedding. The check in process was easy and the checkout ( 1h late as previously talked with the management company ) was a breeze. I highly recommend for family or friends gathering

Great home for a large family or a big group. Big living room big kitchen and big dining table. Spacious bedrooms and bathrooms.
Very steep driveway but plenty of parking. Would be nice if they would fix the elevator since the kitchen is upstairs and difficult to lug all the groceries up there. All in all we had a wonderful time, and created lots of new memories.

Although this house has stunning views and is in a great neighborhood we had problem after problem with upkeep issues. I booked this home for two reasons, the spa and the elevator since we had an injured person with us. The spa was not working upon our arrival on Thursday, we were told someone would come Friday evening to look at it and we never heard from them so Saturday morning we had to call again only to find out that mice had chewed through the wires.
The elevator was also broken and has been but we were not told that prior to our arrival and only found out after we called to find out why it wasn't working,. All of the deck railings are really loose and we were nervous about them because we had small children and with a good shove, they could have easily broken. The deck chairs are uncomfortable, extremely worn and in need of replacing.
For paying a premium for this house, we were really dissatisfied with the disrepair of the amenities that it advertises. The spa was a huge disappointment because that was one of the primary reasons I selected this home. The refrigerator never stayed cold so we were constantly having to rotate through ice packs to ensure our food did not spoil.
It is a gorgeous home with great views in a nice neighborhood and we did get a very small refund for the issues that we encountered but with so many things wrong with this home and the price they are charging, I felt it wasn't equitable.

We had a group of 10 celebrating a bday and enjoyed our stay at this home! The deck was spectacular and all the king beds were really comfortable. Loved that we were walking distance to the downtown area. We did hear some mice, and one girl spotted one inside :( something to consider as you are truly in the mountains!! Overall would recommend the stay!!

The house is spacious and was very clean, and in COVID world that was great. We had the master bedroom which was wonderful but there is no AC downstairs (the only AC is in the kitchen and living room areas) and as it was a rather warm weekend our friends who were down there had a rather uncomfortable nights sleep, that being said when they opened the windows the second night they said it was a lot better. The kitchen is very well stocked (cooking utensil wise), and the management company even brought us a griddle when I had asked if the house had one. The views are amazing and there was enough space for people to go and have time to themselves if they needed it.

The Pinnacle turned out to be a perfect place for our family reunion held every Thanksgiving. There were beds for everyone, it was comfortable and well equipped. The large table was perfect for all our game playing, and the living room large enough for us to sit and chat. We loved using the hot tub while it was snowing, and the view was spectacular!!! We look forward to using it again next year.

Terrible company to deal with.
Overcharged us for alleged damages, stopped responding to any attempts to communicate in order to resolve the issue. Could not prove the damages to the credit card company, so they sent it to the collection agency for the WHOLE AMOUNT OF THE RENTAL that has already been paid for, not just the alleged damage.
Idyllwild is beautiful, you'd be wise to arrange your rental somewhere else.

Bad Customer Service
We booked our reservation and four days before we were going to leave, they called to say we were bumped off the booking because they double booked. The contact person was rude and didn’t give much explanation. We had to scramble for another booking and didn’t get to go to our destination of choice. I understand things happen, but waiting to inform us so late when the other people had reserved over two weeks prior is poor management/customer service. I don’t recommend working with them.

This will forever go down as the single best experience as I have *EVER* had with a rental company, and I travel constantly! Every single person on the New Spirit team was more kind, hospitable, and accommodating than the next, and they took care of us in every way they knew how... and then some! The house we stayed in, The Pinnacle, was just immaculate and I am already planning our family reunion back in Idyllwild because I left so happy. Thank you all for your generosity of spirit and hospitality, can't wait to book with you again!
