Mountain Center

Travel Guide

Sometimes, when we allow our grip on reality to loosen, even just a little, our imagination can run wild. It can be accentuated even more when it’s a dark, damp day and the fog rolls in around an already creepy tree. #scourchedeath #forestfires #idyllwild #mysticalforest #burnedwood #mysterioustrees #cranstonfire #mountaincenter #lonecoyotestudio #lostinfog #burnedtrees #ent #mtsanjacinto #thomasmountain #hauntedtrees #nealdodson #lakehemet #wonderingphotographies #destinationphotography #fireart #creativeeye #rebirth #regeneration #lifefromdeath #californiafires #californiafires2018 #thrivingchristianartists #walkinginthewoods #roadsidephotographies #walkingwithgod

Drove up to Mt. San Jacinto looking for images of burned oaks from last years fire. Found inspiration in the clouds. #deadoaks #burnedoak #mysticaltrees #hauntedtrees #hauntedoaks #hauntedoak #mystictrees #oaksinthefog #mountaincenter #mtsanjacinto #hemetvalley #cranstonfires #ribbonwood #ribbonfire #idyllwild #thomasmountain #pinestopalmshighway #hurkeycreekpark #lakehemet #lonecoyotestudio #nealdodson
This tree grabbed my attention when I was driving through a recently burned area. It reminded me that even when things are ravaged by fire, new life can still grow. While the exterior was scorched, the tree was still alive. In life the same is true. Even in the darkest of moments we can still find hope. #scourchedeath #forestfires #idyllwild #mysticalforest #burnedwood #mysterioustrees #cranstonfire #mountaincenter #lonecoyotestudio #lostinfog #burnedtrees #ent #mtsanjacinto #thomasmountain #hauntedtrees #nealdodson #lakehemet #wonderingphotographies #destinationphotography #fireart #creativeeye #rebirth #regeneration #lifefromdeath #californiafires #californiafires2018 #thrivingchristianartists #walkinginthewoods #roadsidephotographies #walkingwithgod

The room was very clean. The location was amazing. The pool and courtyard are a really nice spot to soak up some sun or enjoy a hot tub at the end of the day. Would definitely stay here again.

The poolside double queen rooms were clean and comfortable. The hotel was fun with friendly staff who were very accommodating, including Romero who served us in our cabana, the front desk staff and lifeguards. The lazy river was clutch during a relatively chilly school vacation week in February. ...
