Magical stay
My family and I had a wonderful stay at this magical cabin over the Easter weekend! We arrived to a surprise of heavy snowfall, which made it even more beautiful. I can’t even describe the landscape of this little hidden gem. The beautiful creek with waterfalls running right behind the house. We spent hours playing in the snow, gazing at the creek, having cozy fires and enjoying the hot tub. The house was clean and comfortable, the location was close to town, but secluded away in a quiet neighborhood. The perfect place to relax, getaway, and get your nature fix. We will definitely be coming back.

Beautiful location. Needs cleanliness
Deers playing in the creek, great location. Dead rat under pillow in bed upon bedtime. Hot tub had a very bad scent, and wasn’t clean. It needed a full cleaning of filter and chemicals (we own a hot tub at home). Contacted owner regarding this and response wasn’t accommodating.

Idyllwild trip
The house is located in a beautiful area and has been remodeled. It is next to the river which makes the view from the deck very nice. The deck however was not clean and had spider webs all over. The BBQ grill was dirty. The jacuzzi cover was dusty and had not been cleaned in a long time. Jacuzzi was lick warm and did not work well at all. Inside, was old but nice. However the living room has low ceiling and not good lighting at all. The bedrooms were nice but mattresses were not comfortable. There were wet towels and sheets in the dryer. I don’t think the house is worth the nightly cost.

Weekend Wonderland
A quiet getaway with charm and simplicity. Only complaint was excess dust all over the place. Water was HOT and plentiful. Kitchen fully stocked with pots, pans, dishes and silverware. Restful waterfall adjacent to the property. The sound was tranquil House big enough to share with another couple. Lots of Private Spaces

Dreamy Cabin
This home and the property was an absolute dream! The grounds were so peaceful and beautifully landscaped, I could have sat on the front porch all day! It was just the peaceful, relaxing getaway that my family needed! The home was also very clean and exceeded my expectations. We will absolutely be back!

Cozy cabin in the forest
We very much enjoyed our stay. The cabin is set in a mixed conifer & deciduous forest just a short drive from the Idyllwild town square., and is well-appointed with a fine kitchen and comfortable beds. We enjoyed sitting on the the front porch and communing with nature. Highly recommended.

Almost Heaven
If there was water running in the creek, the place would have been heaven. Unfortunately due to drought of 2022, there was no water. Despite that, the place has beautiful landscape on front & treed on wrap around back deck (owner had irrigation pipes placed). We spend most time in outside large patio, which has dining table & chairs. Inside is not very large, but it is comfy with open connection between areas. Decoration has nice character. Mark was very quick to help us when we locked out ourself. Also, we left a large item there, he was nice enough to put it away for us. .

beautiful house, lack of instruction
The house is lovely and comfortable. But they never informed me that we needed to provide our own logs. Since it's a real drive back to town, it's a disappointment not to be able to arrive prepared. Second, there are no instructions or visitor guide, so I never could figure out how to use the hot tub jets. Finally, the property manager never responded to my phone call. So easy, but so sloppy.

Perfecto!
Property is as advertised. Perfect getaway for the family. If anyone is interested the fridge does have an ice maker and the coffee machine options are both drip and Keurig. Peaceful setting so close to gorgeous hikes and wildlife. The hot tub was big and a nice relief for the sore hiking muscles. We will be back!
