I LOVED the Saddleback Inn! Honestly, I didn't want to leave. The cozy cabin-style cottages were amazing! Mine had very nice furnishings, a gas fireplace, AC, heater, refrigerator, TV, a beautiful, gigantic spa tub in the large bathroom, and a deck-style patio with chairs to relax in on the outside. Many of the cabins were stand-alone and nestled under tall evergreen trees and lush landscaped greenery between cabins to give a homey and private feel. Everything was within walking distance. I could walk to the front desk and the exquisite restaurant/bar in less than two minutes. There was the nicest mountain cabin-style 7-11 I have ever seen right next door stocked with cool snacks, good wines, readymade foods, gifts, needs, ice, and super friendly staff. Robin was awesome! It was conveniently open 24/7 too. I walked to the main tourist attraction in the area, Lake Arrowhead with all the shops and restaurants, and the Lake Tour Ferry in 5 minutes. The town was full of friendly people, a nice slowed-down vibe, and a palatable feeling of safety. The Saddleback Inn was very reasonably priced for the experience. I had the honor of speaking at length with Michael at the front desk who was very sweet and personable, as well as the General Manager herself, Heather, who was so sweet, kind, friendly, and relaxed, I wanted to talk with her all day. She runs a very good business there and I cannot wait to go back again. They told me that business slows down in the wintertime but that's when I'd want to go back there. Evidently, they have some amazing Octoberfest happenings going on in October that sounds fun, and I can't even imagine how Christmas will be in that magical mountain wonderland.
