About this property

Charming, Dog-Friendly Two-Story Cabin Lodge with Deck - Great for Families

It's about time you treated yourself to an escape, and this dog-friendly Idyllwild vacation rental is the perfect place to do it! Relax and rejuvenate in this gorgeous log cabin, enjoying the warm wood-burning fireplace, evergreen tree surroundings, and restorative atmosphere all around you.

Located in peaceful Idyllwild, CA, voted L.A.'s Best Mountain Getaway, this quiet cabin will give you some much-needed rest and seclusion from your busy life. Take a breather and take it easy. Here in Idyllwild we have you covered, and you don't need to worry about a thing. More adventurous travelers will also love the proximity to the Suicide Rock trailhead and Tahquitz Rock for hiking and rock climbing.

Everyone in your group will want to spend their time in the living room, curled up on one of two couches as the fire crackles merrily from the wood-burning fireplace. During the day, you'll love looking out the large, floor-to-ceiling windows at the trees, reading a book or watching a show on the flatscreen. The TV also has a DVD player, so remind the kids to bring their favorites from home! If they forget, there's a selection of movies provided for your use.

Calling all aspiring chefs! If you love to cook, the fully equipped kitchen is the perfect place for you to prepare and enjoy a delectable meal. Complete with modern appliances, cookware, and a small dining table when it's time to eat, you'll be more than comfortable dining here.

At bedtime, you'll have your choice between two spacious bedrooms, each with intricate wood detailing and a queen-size bed, and one master with a queen-size bed, an en suite bathroom with a jetted tub, and private deck access. There is also one more full bathroom for your use. A double futon right in the living room is also available to sleep a couple more guests, for a total of eight. Dogs are also welcome to come along for an additional nightly pet fee.

Worried about missing out on work back home? Bring your laptop along, connect to the free WiFi, and never miss a thing! You'll have so many amenities here to make sure you're comfortable and feeling right at home, from the WiFi and cable to keep you connected to the washer/dryer to ensure your things are nice and clean. You'll even have a library of books and selection of games to choose from.

In the summertime, step outside to the deck where you'll find a dining table, your very own gas grill, and gorgeous views of the surrounding forests. You'll love spending time out here, enjoying your meal in the great outdoors or reading a book as you breathe in the fresh mountain air.

In Idyllwild, Shakespeare fans will love checking out 'Will in the Woods,' an annual production each fall which features selections from the Bard's plays and sonnets. Besides this famous festival, there is also an annual international film festival and plenty more arts-focused events throughout the year.

If you're less about the arts and more about exploring the great outdoors, Idyllwild has that too! Climb over rugged landscapes, doing your best 'Wild' impression as you hike part of the infamous Pacific Crest Trail, or play it safer and explore one of the many trails and rock climbing sites closer to your home away from home.

Only caution for future guests is all the stairs needed to get to the home and inside, there is a spiral staircase that is narrow, steep and hard to negotiate, especially with luuggage or cooler. Seniors beware and those with canes, walkers or wheelchair will be unable to access this property.

The unique layout and multi-level design are features many guests enjoy, though we understand they may not be ideal for everyone, especially those with mobility concerns or when transporting heavier items. We truly appreciate your thoughtful feedback and thank you again for staying with us. Warm Regards, Casago Team

It was exactly what we were looking for! Excellent stay. Love the feeling of the cabin, huge windows and gorgeous views. Kitchen is nicely equipped. The layout was ideal for us. Our 132lb dog stayed comfortably downstairs. The covers for the couch downstairs were so thoughtful. The place is within walking distance to our favorite Ernie Maxwell trail.

We actually enjoyed our stay in October. We booked it again for this upcoming May. Unfortunately, our plans changed, and despite it being a fully refundable reservation, they canceled our reservation and kept our money. I have been calling them for weeks without any luck. I keep being told that I will get a call back and I do not. The cabin is nice, but the property managers are terrible and bordering on fraudulent. I highly recommend reserving elsewhere and avoiding this property until they change property managers. Current property managers are Casago

A great getaway for Fourth of July!

This house was a great place to relax with friends for a holiday weekend. My dog is very reactive to fireworks, and this area is super calm and quiet. The spiral stairs up to the main level can be a bit of a challenge for some canine companions, but if they’re small it’s easy to carry them up. Overall it was a beautiful place to stay and we would return!
