    Beautiful rustic cabin located in a beautiful quiet forest area. I would have rated this 5 stars except for the fact the bed and sofas were also rustic and extremely uncomfortable. A nice bed along with some comfortable places to sit would have made this the perfect vacation place.

    The setting was beautiful! The property needs work! The shower floods and hot water last about 4-5 minutes not enough time to wash yourself and hair before turning to cold water! The stairs to the loft are very steep and the railing is only half way up the stairs! Not very safe! The furniture needs updating especially the sofa!

    This very rustic,cute cabin is a gem for a perfect getaway in the mountains. Well-equipped with everything you need including a darling fireplace to enjoy during the cold nights. Evening walks boast an amazing star-filled sky! The town is a short walk or drive away and hikes galore that we really enjoyed. The stairs are indeed steep so you have to be very careful and we noticed the carpeting was coming up which can propose a hazard. The carpet could stand to be replaced and maybe an updated sofa as the futon style was not comfortable. A small tv in the main living area would be a nice addition for couples wanting to cozy up to watch a movie by the fire after a long day outdoors. Overall, we had a wonderful time and we will definitely be back! Thank you!

    I believe the written overview stated two queen beds. It seems that they are full size beds not queen beds. Also the beds are very soft.

    Very quiet area of town, super clean cabin. Make sure you have plenty of wood for the fireplace if you’re staying in the winter. The gas heat only warms enough to keep the pipes from freezing.

    We loved the real experience of a wooden cabin in the woods. However, there were some issues with our stay, the stairs are really steep, not kids friendly.

    If you have a fear of spiders this is not your place. We killed ten Wolf spiders the size of a quarter (I have the pics to prove). The refrigerator is extremely old and very loud and sounds like a motorcycling idling when running and woke me up all night long. Also the decor is very mystical and creepy. This stay was anything but peaceful and was my worst rental EVER!!!

    This cabin was perfect! We stayed for the Thanksgiving holiday and it was an awesome experience. We were able to warm up by the fireplace and visit the local tree lighting ceremony. The cabin had a nice thanksgiving gift package for us when we arrived. Check in was easy and the cabin had everything we needed. Would definitely visit again.

    We loved our overnight stay here! It's a simple, charming, mountain classic that looks like it hasn't changed in decades -- which I love. Really enjoyed using the fireplace (it got down in the 40s at night, even in September)! Super-convenient to town and gave us the mountain vibes we needed for this last-minute visit to Idyllwild.

    The area and the cabin was very nice and enjoyable. Great neighborhood, short walk to the center of town (about 20 minutes). If you are tall like myself (I’m 6’3”), you will need to be careful going up and down the stairs - there is a light fixture you will likely run into on the second floor. Otherwise, the place is just the right size for a cabin in the woods.

    Great fireplace. Comfortable furniture. A few suggestions: draughts around entrance doors. Big ole dead tick stuck in screen above sink. No bulb in bedroom small lamp. Put bird seed out. What? No birds? Bottom line. A wonderful 4 days together!
