Food scene
Italian food that’s really good and you can eat outside with your dogs. If it’s warm-ish there are also two old dudes who sing jazz standards. It’s pretty fun. Beer and wine only.

Italian again! Sit outside with your dog again. They have an outdoor pizza oven/bar. Pizza is amazing. Fresh made crust. This is more like a restaurant you’d find in San Diego or LA. Full bar.

This is an interesting place. You can sit outside with your dogs again, but I would go at night. It’s a real throwback with roaring fires on inside and waitresses who have been there for years. Surprisingly great fish! (Who knew!) Full bar.

We love this place because of all the hand made, bespoke chocolates. They also do a hand dipped ice cream that is to die for. We like to indulge ourselves here every time we visit.

This is just a normal market. That said, the veggies here taste so fresh. I haven’t bought veggies from Idyllwild Village Market because they’re always so good here! I think they’re a little cheaper than the Village Market as well.

Hiking
This is the jumping off point for several great hikes. You'll need an Adventure Pass to park your car here (can buy them anywhere in town) or it's a 20 min walk up the hill from our cabin.
We like the Ernie Maxwell Trail which is a 5 mile out and back trail that is pretty easy but gorgeous views.
