About this property

Architectural Idyllwild Retreat | Views, Hot Tub, Koi Pond, Dog Friendly

  • Welcome to Quail Ridge, your private mountain retreat in Idyllwild — a luxury 3-bedroom, 2-bath cabin perched above the treetops in the sought-after Pine Cove neighborhood. With sweeping panoramic views of Tahquitz Peak, elevated privacy, and resort-style outdoor living, this is the kind of place you book when you want something truly special — not just a cabin, but an experience. Set on over a third of an acre with an additional adjacent lot, this property offers a rare sense of space, serenity, and connection to nature — all just minutes from town. Beds: K, Q, Q

    INDOOR LIVING SPACES
    Step through the striking Frank Lloyd Wright–inspired entry and into a dramatic great room where architecture and nature come together beautifully. Open-truss ceilings soar overhead while walls of windows flood the space with natural light and frame breathtaking mountain views. The living area is anchored by a massive native stone wood-burning fireplace — the perfect place to gather after a day of hiking or exploring. Knotty pine walls add warmth and authenticity, creating the elevated “modern mountain” aesthetic that today's travelers are seeking.

    The fully upgraded kitchen is designed for both everyday ease and elevated entertaining, featuring cherry-style cabinetry, granite countertops, a copper sink, and a premium six-burner double oven range. Whether you're preparing a quiet breakfast or hosting a full dinner, this space delivers. Central heating and air conditioning ensure year-round comfort — cool in the summer, cozy in the winter.

    OUTDOOR LIVING SPACES
    This is where the home truly shines. The expansive view deck is designed for lingering — morning coffee with mountain views, afternoon lounging, and evenings under the stars. The private hot tub is perfectly positioned to take in the iconic backdrop of Tahquitz Peak, creating a true spa-like experience. Enjoy multiple outdoor living zones, including comfortable lounge seating, alfresco dining, and a large propane grill for outdoor cooking. Gather around the fire pit as the sun sets or unwind beneath shaded awnings during the day.

    Just below the deck, a tranquil koi pond with dual waterfalls adds a peaceful soundtrack of flowing water — elevating the entire outdoor experience. The fenced yard (with dog ramp access from the deck) makes this home especially ideal for guests traveling with dogs, while the rare 2-car attached garage adds convenience you won't often find in Idyllwild.

    SLEEPING QUARTERS
    All three bedrooms are thoughtfully designed to deliver comfort, privacy, and a restful night's sleep after a day in the mountains. The primary suite features a King bed and a calm, serene ambiance that mirrors the natural surroundings. Two additional guest bedrooms each offer Queen beds, making this home ideal for families, couples, or small groups traveling together. Two full bathrooms are well-appointed and conveniently located to serve both shared and private spaces.

    PET POLICY
    Dog-friendly home (maximum of 2 dogs). The fenced yard and direct deck access make this an easy and comfortable stay for guests traveling with their pets.

    THE LOCATION
    Located in Pine Cove — one of Idyllwild's most peaceful and scenic enclaves — this home sits approximately 1,000 feet above town, offering cooler temperatures, incredible views, and a true sense of escape.
    Despite the privacy, you're just a short 6-minute drive to the heart of Idyllwild Village, where you'll find charming restaurants, local coffee shops, art galleries, live music, and boutique shopping. Outdoor adventure is right outside your door. Explore nearby hiking trails, including Devil's Slide Trail, Humber Park, and Marion Mountain Trail, leading toward Mount San Jacinto. Spend a relaxing afternoon at Lake Fulmor, or venture into Mount San Jacinto State Park for miles of pristine wilderness. In the winter months, the area transforms into a quiet alpine escape — perfect for snow play, hiking, and cozy fireside evenings.

Sisters getaway

This beautiful home was the right place for our group of 6 sisters to laugh and reminisce. We moved away from our home town of Yucaipa 50 years ago and were back for a fabulous trip down memory lane. Loved the deck with room for all of us, hiking nearby and the shops, brewery and restaurants in Idyllwild were perfect for us.

Great Dog Vacation

We come to this area about once a year and travel with our dog. Very dog friendly place. Had fenced area for dog and the balcony was secure as well. Our friends came as well and this place was very spacious. We stayed downstairs with our own bathroom and our friends stayed upstairs. Highly recommend this property.

Great Cabin

Good location, quiet neighborhood. Cabin was easy to find. Everything was clean and in great shape. If interested in hot tub, let management know, it was turned off when we arrived. Kitchen was well stocked with pots, pans, plates and knives. Not many condiments. And "that" stove..................Bring your shampoo and body wash, there was none provided. Hot water in master shower was not hot enough for me.Great dog rental, bowls and bed provided and an awesome dog run.Definataly reccomend.

Beautiful Property Needs a Deep Clean

Rating Details: The property manager was more than helpful. The vacation rental was clean. I was very happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Overall, this property has a lot to offer. However, I would recommend the owners remove the carpet especially since they are a pet friendly home. Two of the bedrooms smelled strongly of pet urine and we had to sleep with the windows wide open. Fine for a summer night but not ideal if there had been inclemente weather.

Family time in the mountains

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Had a great stay! Our first time visiting Idyllwild, and we'll definitely be back.The house worked great for us - we had me in one bedroom, my brother and our two dogs in the second bedroom, and my daughter, son-in-law and their 2 babies in the third bedroom. The house is in a great location with a huge yard and lots of privacy. We loved that the dogs could go out in the fenced-in yard so we didn't need to watch them every second. We cooked plenty of meals in the kitchen and it was very comfortable for 2 or 3 of us to be in there at the same time. Found a couple of fun hikes nearby, and the Idyllwild Brewery was a highlight. Fun times!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: 4 of us so enjoyed this pet friendly, clean, mountain home. Beautifully appointed living areas with nice kitchen and large professional gas oven. Views, views, views from the large wrap around deck looking out to the long range mountains. We loved the myriad of beautiful birds!: Cheeky Stellar jays, orioles, nuthatches, chickadees, and beautiful acorn woodpeckers. Large, very clean, smoker/BBQ grill! A bonus was the ramp off deck for the dog to run down into fenced-in area. We anticipated going into town, but loved staying at the house! Management team and host were all very professional, courteous, and prompt!! Outstanding!

Cozy cabin in the mountains

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We truly enjoyed our family time over Christmas. The cabin was beautifully decorated for the occasion. There were 6 of us so there was not enough room for us all to sit comfortably in front of the TV. The 3rd bedroom and 2nd bathroom is downstairs off the garage. It is nice if someone wants privacy. We decided to do some baking in the beautiful oven but it was hard to figure out even with the given directions. We would return. The sunsets were amazing and the hot tub was perfect. You feel like you are in your own world. The cabin seemed newly renovated. Our dog was so happy to go down the doggie ramp to a fenced in area under the cabin.

Cozy cabin in a winter wonderland

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Six adults and one pup stayed at Quail's Ridge for two nights and it was the perfect wintertime getaway. Make sure to bring chains with you, the drive up in the snow can be tricky! You'll have everything you need for a cozy time with family once you arrive: fully stocked kitchen, hot tub with plenty of fresh linens, fireplace and gorgeous view of the valley.The property description was quite accurate. There were a few quirks to the house, such as a very tricky stovetop/oven appliance and an impossibly loud venting fan. This dampened the experience of cooking together, a real shame because the kitchen was gorgeous and spacious!Beds were comfortable with plenty of extra blankets. Once bedroom is separated from the rest with it's own amenities, great for extra privacy from the main house.Definitely bring wood for the fireplaces.We were initially given the wrong key to the house, and New Spirits Homes went above and beyond to correct the problem, even in a blizzard.

Great location and amenities

Mixed feelings about this property. Overall, our group had a great time so I’m giving it four stars. There are definitely some odd things though. This is posted on the listing (my fault for not reading it fully), but the day before arrival management contacted me to fill out/sign an extensive rental agreement along with sending a photo of my ID and credit card (only the last four showing). This hasn’t happened to me before & it was especially odd because they were contacting me from random google numbers. If they had a legitimate portal or something that probably would’ve weirded me out less. Regardless it wound up being fine. The check in and check out process are kind of annoying because it requires a physical key - you have to stop at a lock box in town on your way in and out. More inconvenient than I expect for a rental property. The common spaces are absolutely beautiful in this house - we loved using the kitchen and fireplace and spent a lot of time in the hot tub. The amenities were really great and we brought our dog who really enjoyed the fenced in yard. The place was also super clean - 10/10 for cleanliness. One of the bedrooms and bathrooms is pretty separate from the rest of the house - you have to go downstairs and through the garage to access it which was kind of odd and a little creepy at night. Overall I might book again just for the amenities, but if I found similar amenities somewhere else, this wouldn’t be my first choice.

Stayed at this lovely cabin for a long weekend getaway/ baby moon. Quiet, serene, and perfect for us dog parents since we were able to bring our two dogs who thoroughly enjoyed the dog run. Not too far away from the epicenter of Idyllwild, with plenty to explore nearby like the nature center. The wildlife and few of the mountains never failed to stun, and the property was clean and spacious. We'd definitely love to return sometime after our baby is born!

Bachelorette Weekend

We stayed here for a bachelorette weekend and had a wonderful time overall! The cabin was cozy, spacious, and perfect for our group. The kitchen was well-equipped, which made it easy to cook meals and enjoy time together. The common areas were just what we needed for a fun and relaxing getaway.The only downside was that the water heater wasn’t working during our stay. While that was definitely inconvenient, we appreciated that the host Adrian made an effort to address the issue and tried to resolve it as quickly as possible.Despite that hiccup, we enjoyed our stay and would consider coming back again. We were close to hiking trails and a market. We would love to explore the town some more. It’s a great spot for a group trip!

We had a great stay! Beautiful cabin and the porch is amazing. We really enjoyed the fireplace, living area and jacuzzi. I will say that the kitchen is not great. I would strongly advise people with larger parties to bring paper products because there is no dishwasher and we spent a lot of time doing the dishes. The oven is an absolute disaster and not user friendly. Took us over 3 hours to reheat a lasagna so I would not rely on home cooked meals. There was not a single seasoning in the kitchen- not even salt or pepper so make sure to bring that if you plan on eating in. Lastly, it should be noted that the third bedroom is in the garage and separate from the other bedroom which was a little odd. Overall we had a great time and the cabin was very clean and beautifully kept. Great for game nights and enjoying the outdoors!
