    "Great for hiking not always safe to leave a dog unattended due to other wild animals like coyotes or deer."
  • Cedarnpinelodge
    "We are a small mountain community of 3,000. We have Town Hall meetings and talk about problems that the community faces or has. "
  • KK C.
    "There are many dog-friendly people in the neighborhood, and there are great trails and hiking areas where leashed dogs are welcome; however not all dogs in idyllwild are socialized, and there are not many enclosed public spaces where dogs can safely play together off-leash."

    "We are a small town where everyone knows everyone and we all say hi to each other. Not only that we have a dog as mayor "
  • Cedarnpinelodge
    "It’s a very small village of About 1,800 full time residents. It’s a resort mountain town with no skiing. It’s known for rock climbing & hiking. Perched above the low desert of Palm Desert people escape here from the high heat there. No fast food and Mom and pop shops. Dogs as Mayors for the village. It’s like living back when everyone knew your name, kids could ride their bikes, and they were safe. It’s a secret, not many people even know we are up here. So shhh we like it that way! It’s Magical!"
  • Michael W.
    "Great place to get away to. Quiet, cozy, well maintained and easy to keep that way."
  • Michael W.
    "Very peaceful area for anyone that likes the mountain areas and appreciates getting away from all the hustle & bustle of the city."
