Saddleback Inn - Lake Arrowhead

We are full-time travelers so we always notice the little things. Overall more than OK; however, this is the first hotel that did not provide bedside reading lamps of any kind - you want to read your partner stays up! :-( Also, no clock/clock-radio. Walking distance to Lake Arrowhead village; nice restaurant.

We were very disappointed with the quality of the room. based on the rate and reviews we expected a lot more. we would not recommend this hotel. we have used hotels.com on many occassions and have never been this disappointed.

Despite a bit of a wait at the front desk without being greeted and acknowledged at check in, and at the lobby restaurant. The Hotel staff was polite when they got around to it. The rooms were very nice, but for valentines day they could have had at least a little gift or something available (even for a added fee for guest) The in room TV needed to […] be programmed to get rid of the extra empty channels and a channel guide included. The bath room needed a few more towels on hand due to the jacuzzi tub. Bubble gel would have been nice. And the staff should check the jets and vent knobs are easy to turn, when cleaning the room. The hotel has a nice restaurant but should have informed me of a special menu when I made that reservation. There was also no information on the website. Service was decent, took a while for the waitress to come buy the first time for drinks and to finally take our order. Nice dishes, good portions, good food. Overall, I would stay again. Its just across from the village. Dont rely on GPS in the mountains. Just be prepared for a little bit of lack of attention to detail. Read more

Very small room, made to feel even smaller by the sloped/gabled walls. Very imited space to put luggage. Onlyone gabled window coud be opened, stuffy. Two straight back chairs only, very uncomfortable. Dark burgundy rug and bed cover made room dingy and dark. Pedal sink in the bathroom, very little space to ut any tiolet articles. Rustic americana style, […] quaint but not impressed with quality except for bathroom fixtures. Bath room was update/remodeling that took up a corner of an already small room Read more

We have stayed athe The Saddleback Resort about 6 years ago with our kids and liked it. This time we were here for my husband to do business. I must say how surprised I was at how tired the interiors looked. Nothing has been updated in quite some time. The bed linens, the carpet and the furniture were all very dated. The blow dryer in the bathroom was […] ancient and it took me 3 times the amount of time to blow dry my hair as it usually does. The shower/ jetted tub had paint or stain drips on the bottom, yhe window crank was broken, the a/c unit onyl cooled to one temperature. The whole interior of the rooms need to be updated. The exteriors are quaint and charming. Read more

It was a very romantic getaway for me and my husband. It was karaoke Friday when we checked in and it was fun to hang out with other guests while listening to people sing. Defiantly going back when he comes home from Korea.

Wonderful. We enjoyed the restaurant and everthing within walking distance. The cottage was quaint and had a two person juquassi in the bathroom. We highly recommend this establishment and will be returning.

Clean, quaint and conveniently close to its own fine restaurant and a 5 minute walk to Mickey D's, Subway, Mexican Restaurant and a really nice Stater Brothers Market.

I was surprised by this hotel! It was a comfortable and clean hotel! I booked for a King bed and it was wonderful! The bed was comfortable and clean! The bathroom was clean, but the only issue was the bathtub. When I was filling the tub for a jet massage, the tub had hair all over the place. Besides that, I enjoyed my stay! The staff is friendly and […] that made me come back again! We also had free breakfast which was: Cereal, milk, orange juice, coffee or tea, scrambled eggs, chicken patties, and diced potatoes. No fruits at all, but it's complimentary! I RECOMMEND THIS HOTEL! Read more

Awesome. Great Experience. The rooms are themed too. Ask about it because it's not mentioned it the travel sites. The fire place is gas powered so it doesn't really warm the room. It's more for ambiance. The rooms have central heating and it works great and fast so don't worry about being cold. All in all it's a great time.

In this struggling economy, Saddleback Inn was painted, clean, beautiful. The bar area has old wood beautifully taken care of. The staff, very friendly, the owner was in the lobby/bar area, making sure all customers were taking good care of. You could see that the owner loves his property and takes very good care of it.

the staff was very nice and the hotel was clean. However, I was disappointed with the room. The sheets and the comforter on the bed looked old and the mattress was horrible to sleep in. Considering the nightly rate for the room, I expected alot more. The quality of the amenities, furniture, and decor in the room did not match the price.

Genuine Expedia guest review

We were staying there for the Xmas break and had a wonderfull time. Very nice and cosy warm cabins that defy any outside temperatures. great dinner service with the option to listen to some local live music with a drink at the bar. Only downside the really basic breakfast service, you're better off taking your breakfast at one of the places in front […] of the lake. Read more

Excelent location and the hotel staff is very nice. The restaurant for dinner is very good. Overall conditions of the hotel are acceptable, it needs more maintanance. Our room was spacious but a little bit run down. The breakfast was pretty bad.

We loved the attention to detail of our room, "Gen. Geo. Custard." A comfy bed! Pictures of historic scenes on the walls and classic solid wood furniture. Lighting was excellent in the bathroom w/circulating hot water. All at the front desk were friendly & so helpful, treating us like we were family. Delicious & uniquely presented food for dinner as […] well as the complimentary full breakfast. Great location with access to Lake Arrowhead Village and the private beach. We will definitely return soon and hope others will come check it out! Thanks to Kurt, Karen & Heather for such a great time! Read more

I booked here because it was rated a AAA Three Diamond Hotel. However this hotel had no upgrades, no added amenities; actually, the bare minimum. Upon entering my room, I was met with a smell of must mixed with cheap cleaning supplies. The wallpaper was peelied off the walls, the paint chipped off the walls, stains in the old "jacuzzi tub" that had […] spackling "repair" paste all over it, the light switches were filthy, the sheets and towels so thin and worn, and the carpet was old plush style that you wouldn't want to ever put your feet on. I rang down to the desk and asked if there were any updated rooms. The woman told me the place was built in the early 1900's but was remodeled 20 years ago. I said, "Yeah, I feel like I'm in the '80's". It was gross and I left a day early because it was so depressing. So unless you like a mix of Little House on the Prairie style mixed with bad baroque, do not stay here. Read more

I wish there was a 10 star option, because that is what this place deserves. The accomodations were way more than I had hoped for - the room was really comfortable and clean, the jacuzzi tub was awesome and sitting on the porch under the trees was so relaxing. The location is really convenient - it is only a short walk to the village and lake. The best […] thing about this place, though, was the customer service. I had messed up the date for our stay and the proprietors fixed the problem as if it had been their mistake instead of mine. They went out of their way to make sure we had an awesome room, even though we showed up on the wrong day. I cannot say enough good things about this place. Stay here and you will have the best time!

My wife and I stayed at the Saddleback Inn for the 4th of July. We love Lake Arrowhead for the summer concerts, excellent shopping, dinning, and of course the fireworks display. The Saddleback Inn is in a very good location, literally at the entrance to Lake Arrowhead Village. The staff are great. The hotel is clean, and quiet, but a bit old. Every […] room has a unique motif - ours was 'The Dodgers'. The room was on the second floor. It was nice but the floor was not quite level. Everything literally slanted to one side. That took a bit getting used to. If you are looking for a nice, clean, inexpensive weekend getaway, then The Saddleback Inn is an excellent choice. I'll definitely come back! Read more

I took my husband to Saddleback Inn for our Anniversary. We loved it! The price was right and the surroundings were beautiful.

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

The Location is beautiful. fast check in, and great complementary American breakfast. A group of teenage kids stayed in one of the larger cabins behind us the first night and were really loud especially when a fight broke out at their party. the second night was noisy as well when the couple on the side of us were making love with all of there winds […] open and lasted for 2 hours. the bed was caving in a little pretty uncomfortable, and the wall paper was pealing off, the room was rustic to say the least. shower and tub were not separate but the tub was a jacuzzi tub that is a small fit for two people. gas fireplace and a refrigerator in the room. Staff was nice, never asked how are stay was tho. the arrowhead village is in walking distance and was amazing i will go back because of the location and the wonderful food, shops, and music in the village. we had a great time.

I booked this hotel to celebrate my boyfriends birthday this past weekend and we both loved the hotel. I had read mixed reviews about the customer service at the hotel but I have to say that they exceeded my expectations. From the people working at the check in counter to the maintenance man who came to our rescue when we got wasps in our bathroom. […] They were all extremely friendly and helpful with anything we needed. The hotel grounds are beautiful, gorgeous pine trees and flowering trees/bushes. We had an amazing and relaxing time. And walking to the village only took about 2 mins. Can't ask for anything better. Their free breakfast was really good as well..Eggs, Sausage, Potatoes..drinks and cereal and bread..all Free!! Wonderful Place and Staff! Read more

It is not the Ritz, but We Loved it. really comfortable, the decoration was nice n simple, we stayed in a cabin with three rooms and a small patio. All three of us loved our rooms, the jacuzzi is a really nice size, very relaxing and we had no problems at all. A nice and simple breakfast of eggs, potatoes, toast and sausage patti with coffee, milk or […] orange juice and the kids can have cearel. Just loved the cabin the only bad thing we experienced was two employees who were a bit on the grump side but otherwise the staff was friendly and helpfull. The hotel is so close to arrowhead village that you can walk to it, there is shopping, feeding ducks and a ferri really beautifull. Overall we would recomend for our friends to stay there we had an awesome time and were given gift certificates for half off that are good any time. Can't wait to go back!!! Read more

We enjoyed our stay in one of the separate cabins. It was a little dated but very comfortable. The heater was on and off a lot but called and they came immedately. The grounds were well maintained. The ladies at the Front Desk Karen and Heather were very friendly and helpful. The breakfast was a little weak; eggs were pebble like and an upgrade on the […] bread would be nice. Overall we liked the hotel and location. Rates were within reason. Read more

The place was great overall, staff is excellent, rooms are very good but the bed mattresses suck a little. Right across the street from Arrowhead Village was a plus. I would stay here again, but maybe sleep on the floor.

The Saddleback Inn was a pleasant surprise! The proximity to the lake and shopping was outstanding! The ambiance is warm and welcoming from the moment you step into the place. There is a beautiful dining room and a full on breakfast is served each morning gratis! I liked the fireplace in the room and it just had a cozy, warm feeling to the room. I would […] love to go back again. Read more

Cozy room for a romantic getaway. You have the fireplace and two person jacuzzi. Very close to the shopping village with free concerts during the spring/summer months. The breakfast was yummy too. Only negative was the restaurant for dinner. Liked it better when it was the Raven's Nest as the food was better quality (choices like duck) and the service […] was quicker. But the staff at the hotel seemed to work very hard at making sure you enjoy your stay. Have stayed here several times and will come again; especially at these prices. Thanks Hotels.com Read more

I would recommend staying at this hotel. The rooms were small, but cozy, clean, and surround by trees and lots of greenery. Plus, the hotel was within walking distance of Lake Arrowhead downtown area which was really convenient. The only thing that I would NOT recommend is eating at the hotel. The food was pricey (like all the other places in town), […] but not somewhere I would ever want to eat at again. I enjoy fine dining, or at least good quality food, but this place was not worth the price. Stay for the room, but go somewhere else for dinner. Read more
