It was a wonderful 4-night stay with my 80-year old dad. The cabin is roomy yet cozy and had everything we needed…full kitchen with cookware and utensils, bathroom towels and toiletries, extra blankets, and lots of outdoor seating areas. Picked up firewood in Idyllwild (1-mile easy drive) for the fireplace. It was a magical visit in the mountains!

Cozy, quiet cabin with all of the amenities. The floor plan layout is great and enjoying a fire in the main room was a plus. So close to town but yet with the feel of solitude. The host was extremely accommodating. We will be back!

This little cabin is so darling and is exactly what we were hoping for. From the wood panel walls, to the cozy furniture, soft bed and the sweetest little dining room, we loved it all. The location was great and it’s just about a mile from the center of town.It’s vintage so you can’t expect a new property, but it had a really great heater and the water pressure was excellent with really hot water.There were lots of nice little extras like soap, shampoo, and a kitchen, full of pretty much everything you need to never have to leave. But if you wanted to, you are not far away excellent restaurants.Host was extremely communicative as well.Can’t wait to go back again

Great home and location!

We only were able to stay for a couple of nights, but we really enjoyed the visit. VERY clean and definitely larger than we expected, including two furnished outdoor decks, a large dining area and a good-sized kitchen. Great to find an affordable, VERY pet-friendly place in Idyllwild.

What an awesome cabin!

We were looking for a weekend getaway in a cozy cabin, and this is exactly what it was! Wood paneled Wild West feel, but had modern appointments like dishwasher, toaster, etc. Heat was easy to use, BBQ worked great, and the beds were very comfortable. We are looking forward to returning here.

Why they chose this property

As a realtor I've seen a lot of homes on the mountain. This property stood out the minute I saw it. It's from an era long gone. My first thought was Goldilocks and 3 cabins in the woods! I was so excited and couldn't wait to start my projects to make this place beautiful. I wanted to create the warm cabin feel and invite my guests to enjoy old Idyllwild charm. Situated in a nice area but close to town. The home is new to VRBO as of June 2018.

What makes this property unique

Gorgeous hardwood floors and cedar walls/ceilings. My favorite thing is the pocket windows in the living room and the rock fireplace. The home is roomy and comfortable.
