Pine Mountain Inn

We stayed in the wildflower room. We really enjoyed our stay! Beautiful tree and mountain views. We were greeted in the morning by cute birds on our private patio. Coffee maker, mini fridge and microwave in the room. Very friendly staff that showed us to our room and recommended places to eat nearby. (See my review of Café Silva Bella!)

This place is wonderful! Diana is a very cordial non-​intrusive host, welcoming and kind! The rooms are super comfortable and cozy, and most importantly, very clean. We stayed at the Club room and my brother at the Pine room — loved them! Nature around is breathtaking! Easy access to hiking trails. Café Bella next door is a cute restaurant to have a homey meal. We got snowed in, so if you are visiting during snow, make sure to drive a 4×4 or at least put chains on. Great experience, definitely coming back!

My family really enjoyed our stay at the pine mountain inn. Clean and cozy rooms and Diana couldn’t have been more accommodating or friendly! We loved everything about this small town and the inn. We will be back!

Quiet and cozy, Pine Mountain Inn was the perfect lil getaway for our NYE celebration. We live in LA and the drive was much quicker than we though and the directions Diana gives you is specific and super helpful! It’s nestled in the cutest and sleepiest little mountain town and upon our arrival, Diana came out and greeted us, walked us around, and showed us to our room — which btw was the most comfortable suite ever with it’s fire place, vaulted ceilings, and wood pillar framed bed. My boyfriend and I just got engaged and Diana was so thoughtful she brought us up a bottle of champagne along with sweets and treats. We rang in the new year across the street at the country club with their live band and we enjoyed the inn’s complimentary breakfast the morning after. A really perfect getaway, I highly recommend the Pine Mountain Inn if you’re looking for a nice getaway that feels like home!

Quaint and nestled in the trees of Pine Mountain, this little place was great for a few nights of relaxation and getaway. Just an hour north of LA, we were welcomed by fresh air, a tiny blanket of snow on the ground and Diana, the innkeeper, who is the nicest and sweetest woman ever.
The rooms are immaculately clean and cozy. A couple of local restaurants are within walking distance including pizza and Mexican food. A general store and gas station are within walking as well. Diana is overly accommodating in making sure your stay here is perfect. She offers a light and easy breakfast for you each morning and is always full of smiles and friendliness. She makes you feel as though you have stayed over with family.
I will definitely visit her and pine mountain inn again :)

I cannot emphasize the following enough: if there were a sixth star, Pine Mountain Inn would receive it.
I’ve traveled in luxury. I’ve traveled ruggedly. I’ve slept in the most elegant of suites and I’ve slept on the ground. I don’t know how Dianna does it, but the atmosphere she has created at the Pine Mountain Inn, along with the understated and familial aura of the Pine Mountain Club as a whole, is the most welcoming, comfortable, and frankly kind of magical I’ve ever experienced.
The rooms are extremely comfortable, the TV easy to operate, the temperature fully controllable, the bathtub perfect for a soak, the decks cozy and beautifully framed by the view, the parking easy and close, and the isolation of the town more than anyone could hope for ninety minutes outside of Los Angeles.
I have to tell this part of the story because it may be my favorite: I was trying to find a place to go where my girlfriend and I could get out of town for a couple of days, go off the grid, and just relax before I went back on the road for work. We had talked about going to a beach, but since the weather had turned cold, we thought forests or mountains might be nicer. To find a hotel, I came here, to Unilocal,and began guiding the map over green patches and searching those map areas. When I found this one, something chimed in my head and I said, «yep. This is the one.»
Dianna made our experience so much more magical than I could have anticipated from the guidance on hiking trails, her bafflingly sincere and warm welcome, the conversations over bagels in the morning, and her genuine care for the experience her guests have.
I really, truly, cannot recommend this place enough.

Beautiful rooms. Exceeded my expectations. My kids stayed in the Star room and the Club room. They had a fireplace with logs, ready to light. Decorated with quality and elegance. Very clean, warm and inviting. Staff is friendly and accommodating. Highly recommended.

My wife and I have stayed twice and we really love it. First class accommodations at Motel Six prices. Diane is just an excellent host. The rooms are incredible (especially the Jordan Room… great fireplace, peak ceiling, private balcony, beautiful bathroom, large closet.) They are well appointed, flat screen TVs and DirecTv. Very nice breakfast.
This place fires on all cylinders and is only one hour from our door.
HIGHLY recommended!

Diane is the most gracious Inn Keeper I have ever met in my many years of global travel. The rooms are immaculate and very charming. A tremendous value. Pine Mountain Club is a very special place. I cant wait to revisit. Thanks Diane!

It’s not as if this place needs another 5-​star review. You probably get the idea: the Pine Mt. Inn rocks. I have been absolutely blown away by the generosity & real kindness of the folks who work here.
I am a spoiled rotten brat when it comes to accommodations — I don’t like noise; I’m fussy about smells and pillows and furniture not being crap, even though I don’t ever use the furniture. I’m currently staying in the Star room (2^nd night out of 3), and it leaves nothing to be desired. There’s a big fridge, a microwave, nice block-​out curtains, high quality bedding, sheets & pillows, a lovely, large fireplace, super high ceilings and a shower that gets hot way fast. (Seriously, there’s no wait time — at all.) What’s not to love when you’re a spoiled brat like me? When it’s cold outside (and it does get cold) there’s a bit of leakage from the doors overlooking the deck but … it’s winter!
But here’s the amazing part. I still haven’t paid a cent. I was shocked when I made my online reservation and they didn’t want to take my credit card. (Who does that?) On my drive here, Diana, the owner, called and left a voicemail so I would be aware that there was snow on the road — in case I might be a little freaked out & want to cancel, I think? And when I arrived, she again refused my credit card. She said «Some people are deterred by the cold. And if the snow makes you unhappy with your stay, who am I to take your money?» This actually happened.
It’s so important to the folks running this place that you be happy with your stay they will literally stop at nothing to ensure that’s the case. It’s a small town mentality I keep running into over and over again in Frazier Park. I remain totally bewildered, and totally determined to stay here again. I heart this town big time. There’s nowhere else like it. And until I finally pay my bill, a 5-​star review is the least I can do. 10 would be more like it.

My wife and I spent one night this weekend and couldn’t have been happier with the inn. The Star room was large, nicely appointed, comfy and very reasonably priced. I could live in it easily. The host, Diana, was lovely and welcoming. The inn sits in the middle of Pine Mountain Club, making it easy to walk most anywhere. You even have access the PMC clubhouse, which is just fine.
The inn is the perfect weekend getaway. From Ojai it’s just a two-​hour drive (through beautiful Lockwood Valley), making it very accessible for us. From downtown LA it’s just an hour and a half. In short, this place was a fantastic find for us, and we’ll be back.

My stay this weekend was amazing! My husband and I stayed in the wildflower room. The décor is cute and the attention to details was probably my favorite part. The gracious inn taker showed us to our room and gave us a tour and showed us how everything worked. The room was cozy and had a great deck. The bathroom was stocked with the large size Kirkland brand shampoo and conditioner. The location of this inn was perfect. We walked to all the restaurants and bar. We went to a festival and our deck was just across from the band. I can not wait to go back!

This was such an amazing find! The inn is great, room was very clean and Diana is a great host! We stayed in the wildflower room which is one of the best rooms with a big private deck, would highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a quiet getaway.

I’ve been meaning to write this review for months! But better late than never:)
I was up in Pine Mountain back in January and only stayed one night, but I wish I had stayed longer. Diana, the owner, is such a gracious hostess and was so nice and helpful. Initially, before booking, I had a couple of questions regarding my dog so I called and ended up having to leave a message. Diana called me back right away and I was very impressed on how much she was willing to work with me and accommodate my needs. The place is dog friendly which is a bonus for me! I stayed in the Star Room and the room was soooo clean! Not even a speck of dust anywhere. This is very important to me when I stay anywhere as I’m sure it is for a lot of people. I chose this room because of the fireplace and balcony, and I’m so glad I did. It was a chilly winter night and the fire made the room so toasty and cozy. There isn’t much to do in Pine Mountain Club especially during the week (in terms of restaurants, bars, nightlife in general) but that’s ok. I only went up there to check it out and relax. The restaurant behind the inn was good and the food they serve seemed very fresh, like made to order. I had a good time here and will definitely be going back with my pooch. Next time, I plan on checking out some of the hiking trails nearby and staying for more than a night.

We stayed for one night in the Wildflower room — absolutely gorgeous and cozy (cozy is not code for small room, it’s very spacious). Clean room, bathroom, and comfortable bed. The deck outside our room was the perfect place to pop a bottle of champagne surrounded by pine trees. Diana is an out of this world hostess — she answered any questions we had, very friendly, and provided a complementary breakfast. I am definitely coming back!

I highly recommend! We were here for a wedding but plan to come back on our own because it was so beautiful and this place superseded my expectations. The rooms were so nice and well put together. And Diana the owner was so sweet and welcoming. Can’t wait to come back!

I was almost brought to tears by the sweetness of the staff here. They literally bent over backwards to make sure we were comfortable, were always laughing and happy, and gave us information about local attractions. The quietest stay I’ve ever had, in the CENTER of everything (hikes are literally 4 minutes away driving) and filled with good vibes. The PERFECT escape from the hectic hell that is Los Angeles. Thank you ladies!!!

Go now… It’s cheaper than therapy, and more effective i’d bet… I so needed this little get away. I’ve traveled all over the globe and this was just the perfect little vacation from LA that I needed. Even though it was only for one night. We couldn’t find more time than that away from all our obligations. Luckily it’s only an hour and a half drive from the Valley.
We went up for my birthday. My wife and I had a stressful two weeks or so prior. However that all started to dissipate as soon as we arrived.
Diane the Inn Keeper was delightful, and such a generous hostess. This was my birthday so she brought up a bottle of bubbly (in this case non-​alcoholic at my wife’s request although Champagne was an option.) This made it fun to toast with the boys on the deck off the room.
The room was immaculate with a fireplace and logs ready to go. Water bottles free… There were extra cots for our kids. We felt like we had our own cabin in the woods. However it had the convenience of being in the middle of the cutest little town I think I’ve ever seen in the States. Great view of the mountain and town from our deck. We also liked the other people staying there. And found out that a couple of the rooms downstairs are pet friendly. I think we will bring our Lab next time.
Breakfast was a real treat. Much better than most of the hotel chains offer. She is not allowed to cook anything by code but she more than compensates with a wide variety of options that don’t require a kitchen.
We took all the doors and roof off our Jeep and left them temporarily at the Inn, while we went 4 Wheeling in nearby Frazier Park. This inn is 15 – 20 minutes from where the Miller Jeep Trail starts. My wife didn’t feel up for the heavy duty trails so we stuck to fire roads which led to spectacular view points. Great pines etc…
One word to the wise. You are at altitude. If you plan to drink have lots of water near the bed. Two beers with dinner, and I was parched all night. Other than that very comfortable.
Did I mention that this little town is awesome. Super nice people. Almost everyone on the street said Hi… To the point that we fell in love with a beautiful log home up the street, and seriously dreamed of buying it. I came up with twenty ways. But then decided it’s just so much easier to simply go back and let Diane spoil us at Pine Mountain Inn.
I can’t wait till the next trip back.

Still amazing! Before our stay, they deserved 5 stars; and now after our stay, I wish I could leave 6 or even more. Diana was so friendly and informative and helpful for our entire stay. She gave us a few spots to check out for finding some real snow (since it wasn’t falling too hard where we were) and we saw the most amazing views. Absolutely the most amazing snow we’ve ever been in. The trails themselves were so nice; but covered in snow, they were breathtaking. The a Woodland Waterfall and Enchanted Forest trails were where she sent us and they couldn’t have been more perfect. We didn’t completely hike both trails, but we didn’t need to. Just a small hike was enough. We were so happy with where she sent us, it was exactly what we were looking for.
No where else that we’ve stayed have we had such amazing hospitality shown towards us. Diana talked with us like we were old friends and gave us a tour of a few other rooms. We’ve already decided which one we want to stay in next time. And there definitely will be a next time; we’d be stupid not to make a trip up here again. It was too perfect. Thank you to the Pine Mountain Inn, and the surrounding area: Bakery, Café Silva Bella, La Lena, and Diana herself, for making our weekend so great!

What a lovely place! We stayed in the Rose Room and it exceeded our expectations. The weather was perfect, the room was cozy and clean, and we didn’t want to leave.
Highly recommend staying here for an evening getaway. Breakfast is very simple, basically a carb buffet. But, it suited our needs and Diana was very kind.
