Tahquitz Pines Retreat is beautiful and relaxing. The campus is beautifully illuminated at night and I enjoyed a nice walk around the entire retreat at night. There are even little walking trails throughout the perimeters. It really felt like a getaway and the energy of the place was soothing and awe inspiring.

The room was nice but could hear neighbors’ every word/conversation through adjoining door as if in the room. I would recommend a separated cottage if seeking quiet otherwise one room suite just be prepared to sleep light.

We really enjoyed our stay. The property was nicely kept and quiet. The staff was very kind and welcoming. In fact, the lady that checked us in and out had a beautiful smile on her face both times I saw her. It made us feel like they were actually happy we were there. The Peak had a good selection of ciders which I rarely get since coming to California. The electric fireplace heater worked very well, in fact, we had to turn it down since we were getting too warm. The room was very comfortable and nicely decorated. If there was any suggestions that I could give, I would say consider having stronger coffee in the rooms. That's it. We hope to visit again sometime.
