Step back in time and stay at Hidden Lodge—the iconic Idyllwild property where Elvis Presley filmed scenes from the 1962 classic Kid Galahad, widely considered one of his finest performances. That legendary front porch is still here, still standing, and now it's yours to enjoy. More than 60 years of history, mountain magic, and unforgettable moments await.
After a day exploring Idyllwild or hiking nearby trails, unwind in your private hot tub beneath the stars before settling in by the grand stone fireplace—an experience as timeless as the lodge itself.
The moment you arrive, you'll feel it.
Pull up the wide driveway and the entire front of the lodge comes into view. Climb the broad steps to the grand double front doors and step onto the covered front porch, lined with rustic log rocking chairs and framed by the pines of Idyllwild. This is the very porch where scenes were filmed, where Elvis performed, and where history was made.
Settle into a rocking chair, breathe in the crisp mountain air, and let that sink in.
We believe in Unreasonable Hospitality — going beyond what's expected to make your stay unforgettable. Tell us what brings you here, and we'll look for ways to surprise you.
