The Mission Inn - June 3, 2011

Friday, June 3rd Limo Man and I went out to spend a night at the historic Mission Inn in downtown Riverside. We went out there to see a concert at the Fox Theater. The concert was Pure Prairie League, Firefall, and Poco. We stopped at Lake Alice and had lunch then went to check in at the Inn. My birthday massage was first on the list while Limo Man relaxed by the pool. We had the most fabulous suite! Limo Man decided to do some exploring and this shot taken from the suite above us to the left. I think it must be the honeymoon suite because it was huge!

There are so many unique styles of architecture at the Inn. This dome was really interesting...I think that may be St. Francis of Assisi on top.

If you ever get the chance to stay at the Inn I would definitely suggest room 361. It was soooooooo nice! When you walked in the wooden front door opened to reveal a wood and glass door. If you left the second door open the breeze would come through the wooden front door and it was delightful.

Here is the other side of the door. The front door actually went into the bedroom. There was another identical door that went into the living room in the back of the suite. So nice!

Some of the furniture at the Inn was so beautiful. An antique lovers dream.

We even had our own table and chairs right outside of the front door of the suite. It overlooked the courtyard.

One of the most interesting parts of the room was the game room in the back of the suite. After the concert we walked back to the Inn, had a drink in the bar and decided that it was time to go upstairs and play a little checkers. We opened a bottle of wine and proceeded to play checkers until 2am.

What a great getaway!!!! Thank you Limo Man!
