    The Idyllwild Fire Protection District is nestled in amongst the Strawberry Valley Region within…read morethe San Bernardino National Forest. It is paid and volunteer on call type of fire department which proudly holds an ISO Rating of Class 2, which must be real good considering the amount trees and wild vegetation throughout the community there. In addition to the latest in fire suppression equipment they are staffed with several paramedic and EMT ambulances to handle medical emergencies as they occur. Chief Patrick Reitz supervises and calls the shots making sure that everyone is safe on all the different calls that they respond on. It is in a community that is 26 miles the closest receiving hospital, yet they manage to get most of the ambulance runs there safely within the golden hour after onset of injury. Recently the Mountain Fire in Mountain Center came very close to the community but never reached it because the well planned strategies implemented by the Idyllwild Fire Department's leadership apart from the dismal performance by dispatchers with CalFire who forgot they were there to fight the fire as well. That's another story though. It's a beautiful well kept community lacking trash and graffiti with tall trees and streams. A lovely place to vacation knowing that if there is a fire or a medical emergency that the Idyllwild Fire Proection District is there for you 24-7-365. Check it out!

    I've been to this location for a couple of civic meetings. Very kind of them to open their "house"…read moreto strangers. Nothing really to base my rating on, other than the fact that they had plenty of parking. The room we were in was well lit, and it didn't have broken chairs or trash lying around.

    My heroes!!! Literally…read more On 6/28/18, I was experiencing severe dizziness and embarrassingly fainted on the floor of the front desk lobby. My co-worker who found me passed out called 911. They arrived in mere minutes and were quick to tend to me, asking me all the relevant questions, checked my vitals and gently prepared me for the trip to ER. They gave me nauseau medication and loaded me up in the ambulance quickly but with great care. On the ride to the ER, they did a chest CT scan to make sure all was good and got me to Pomerado Medical Center lightning fast. I am so thankful for these awesome guys and impressed by their professionalism and humor. They cracked jokes with me a few times and made me smile so I appreciated their kind disposition. I don't remember my last ambulance ride being so warm and fuzzy so this was a welcome change. Lastly, confession: My female co-workers love us some Firefighters/Firefighter EMTs so in a way, this whole incident was a dream come true for all of us. LOL!! I even joked with one of the EMTs that they were the only reason all the ladies came down to see what was going on was; that the team was easy on the eyes and that was the most excitement they were gonna have all week. HA! Can't say I blame them. He replied "Awwww, and we're the B Squad". Nope, definitely not the B squad! Thank you for all you do!
