About the host
Hosted by Tara Baldwin

Hi, I’m Tara, proud host of the Root Stone Lodge. I grew up in San Diego and we have had a home in Idyllwild since the mid 80’s. This lodge has been in our family since 1991 with the addition being completed in 2018. We designed the lodge to be a comforting, peaceful respite for family and travelers alike. Each room has a private bathroom and we treat each guest like family, while also respecting privacy. We love sharing this incredible space with others to come and enjoy!
Why they chose this property
We are located in an incredible area of Idyllwild with towering trees, open landscape along Strawberry creek and an easy walking trail along the creek into town! We have an outdoor amphitheater that is ideal for small weddings and events. Idyllwild is a hub for live music and arts, fine dining and world class hiking, rock climbing and mountain biking.
What makes this property unique
Our incredible manzanita spiral staircase is a unique design and guest favorite!
