I am a teacher and I am always looking for ways to release tension. This retreat space was full of positive energy. The atmosphere was conducive to release of negative energy. I was completely rejuvenated. It was quiet, enjoyable and serene. So much so that when my blood pressure was taken it was normal. I absolutely recommend this place.

Everything about this property was excellent from the easy check in to the checkout. Reina who assisted us with check in was very welcoming and made us feel like VIP. The continental breakfast was good and had a great selection. We will definitely stay here again in the fall.

The Quiet Mind Mountain Lodge was a perfect getaway to unwind. The staff was friendly, we had a beautiful view of Lake Cuyamaca, we enjoyed sitting in the private patio relaxing. The rooms were clean, the AC kept the room nice and cool. Julian is very close nearby, the lodge offers several amenities to unwind. We enjoyed the lodge very much, we’d stay here again, it was very peaceful.

I liked the serenity of the property . However , it’s an older property which is outdated . Found several spiders & bugs . The views are nice from the Lake side . Beds were comfy and recommend the suites. Parking near the facility is limited.

A bit overpriced
This is an interesting “resort” to say the least. What you will quickly realize besides the unbelievable staff, is that this is essentially a giant ranch-style house that the owner tried to turn into a resort. This means that a lot of what you expect to see from aesthetics to amenities, are rather lacking. Now there’s nothing wrong with it, but the price doesn’t quite justify the quality. A lot of things that were at an additional cost (reiki, yoga, meditation) should have been included. Overall we enjoyed our stay, and the area is beautiful, but costs would need to come down for us to consider staying here again.
