We have fished Lake Cuyamaca for many years and wanted a view of the Lake to celebrate our 40th Anniversary. We had a beautiful view and a restful time. Our room was equipped with a bidet, clawfoot jacuzzi tub and a shower with so many settings that it was delightful showering and being spoiled.
The staff was amazing and helped make our stay special. Special thanks to Sarah, Uni and Adam for taking such good care of us. We are already planning our next visit.
The properties really interesting. It’s in a beautiful area. The bed was very comfortable. The atmosphere was serene had a beautiful lake view. The breakfast was communist but very good. I love the meditation room. I did a treatment which was very good and then a meditation in the morning which was lovely.
I booked this place over the concerns of both my sister and wife who were skeptical the place would be a bit too new-agey for their east coast sensibilities - but they both loved it. The view of the mountains and lake from our room and the common area were enough to make it worth staying there. Very short drive to nearby Stonewall Peak which is a great day hike. Not far from the Slot Canyon trail and Three Sisters Falls if you want more hiking. Staff was not just polite and courteous like you expect but warm and friendly, almost felt like family. If you don't care for lodge menu there is a nice pub right on the lake just a few minutes away. Only wish we had the time to stay an extra day.

Very quiet place to stay for couple days to recharge or reconnect with your partners.
Frinedly staffs. Onsite food limited options amd just ok. I would recommend go to julian town for more option.
The properties look fine. Not excellent but good enough for short stays. The property is older and do need some upkeep. I wouldnt expect a very nice room. It's small. I think 1-2 days stay is good. More than that not much to do there.
So majestic. Staff was none less than amazing. If you want spa use, plan ahead. Decor is original and beautiful. If you want just a quiet spot then this is your place.
Quiet and peaceful, beautiful view, and the furnishings are quaint. Excellent room service and a good selection of food. The bed was comfortable and made me feel like a princess.
Staff was very friendly and helpful. The area is beautiful. I will be back.
This place was very tranquil and quiet. Nice rooms, comfy bed. And did hear a dog barking in one of the rooms even though no pets allowed. Shower gel was almost empty. Not a big choice of dining options nearby.
The Quiet mind lodge was so cool! And a much needed getaway for me and my partner. We enjoyed the food, pool table, and beautiful views! Our room was cute and the bed was very comfortable. We are definitely coming back. Thank you Adam and Sarah for the hospitality and good vibes.
