I know many from our area that go visit regularly, and go hiking. It was lots of fun to explore this small mountain town. Time for another visit I think.

One of the great things about California Jeff Dowler CRS  is that you can spend time at the beach, the mountains and the desert.  Have fun!

Hi Jeff Dowler CRS I'm not into rock climbing but I do want to go to Idyllwild. The bar there was featured on Bar Rescue a couple of years ago. I would like to see how it has turned out.

Hi Sheri Sperry - MCNE  - that is one of the neat things about SoCal. So much diversity within  just a few hours. Something for everyone

Paul S. Henderson, REALTOR®, Broker, Tacoma Washington  - I believe it comes from a legend similar to Romeo and Juliet - a Native American Princess supposedly committed suicide here with her lover rather than being separated from him as ordered by the Chief. Who knows.

I became a regular when my ex-husband and his then-wife lived there. Kids would go visit and I always loved driving them up and hanging out in the little town for a bit. Darling.

I'm not a rock climber either, but the bar sounds kinda neat. Could be worth an overnight trip! If you go let m eknow what you think!

We were there in the spring and it was beautiful. It's always fun exploring a new community. I was amazed at how many hikers there were.

I should write a longer post about it and include a few other photos. It's a neat place to escape to in the mountains not all that far from the coast

I thought it was a great little town, and one that you hope changes little over time. It's been 9 years - time to visit again!

Hi Jeff - this is really a rigourous looking moutain.  I guess that is why they call it Suicide Rock.

Very nice scenery at Idyllwind and I am with you I would rather enjoy the natural beauty than try climbing.

Hi Jeff -- I agree with Sheri Sperry - MCNE -- we are so fortunate to be able to have such relatively easy access to the mountains, the desert and the ocean -- it really is a dream location.   I know the Idyllwild Music Festival is a pretty big deal too.

Grant Schneider  - it was pretty impressive looking from our vantage point. My reearch shows the hike to be pretty steep and about 6.7 miles total. Beyond my experience and energy level

Belinda Spillman  - we did some short hikes, and the forests at this time of year (April) were beautiful.

I may have been through this area before seeing as VB has been traveling all through the state of California for the last 40 years.

Nice looking place and it looks very relaxing!

Larry Johnston  - perhaps if I were in a bit better shape and more sell versed in hiking!

Robert Bob Gilbert - the hiking in the woods was beautiful, but time was limited and exploring the town, at the time, seemed more interesting

Robert Vegas Bob Swetz  - we had a great time, and vowed to get back. Still waiting to do that. Our most recent haunt for getaways, other than LA and SF, has been the desert

Ed Silva  - well I can't disagree. Here's a little history about the name

I thought so. Without knowing what to expect, and realy not being prepared, it made no sense! But it sure was nice walking where we did
