Moska’s Stay

We had a great weekend at Idyllcottage! We loved the location, easy to walk into town and close to great hiking! We enjoyed soaking in the jacuzzi and having some quiet time reading on the couch. Great suggestions on restaurants and activities! Loved that there were games, puzzles and tons of books too! Thank you for a great stay!

Girls weekend

I stayed 3 nights and really enjoyed it. We had all we needed with the kitchen stuff to cook a meal or two. Across the street was Cafe Aroma, where I had my last meal listening to a crooner. We walked down to the creek and it was lovely. Beds are comfy and air conditioning was just right. Only suggestion is to post your house number on street, as the sign by driveway listed innacurate number. I walked in to look around and saw the sign on cabin to let me know I was in the right place.

Cute, clean,well equipped, overall excellent. Just a couple of things: sofa cushions desperately need to be restuffed! And a throw blanket for sofa and coffee set up with coffee and creamers would be great additions. the hot tub was lovely , but it took a loooong time to heat up from 85, the temp it is set to on standby, so turn it up as soon as you arrive if you want an early’ish evening hot tub!

Charming cabin! We loved our stay here. Excellent, well-stocked kitchen and amenities. Super comfy beds, skylights to see the trees. Cozy and well-appointed. Great couch by the fireplace and nice gated patio surrounded by the trees - we’ll try the hot tub next time! And a few steps away from the Creek Trail - wonderful, peaceful trail along Strawberry Creek - easy and great with dogs. AND short walk to restaurants, shops, bars.

Great historic cabin/great location

We stayed here with our pups for a long weekend. It’s an older, quirky cabin. But it is maintained snd kept clean. The owners are very communicative. Cabin has everything you need including coffee grinder and Wilderness passes. Walking distance to downtown. Nice restaurant across the street. And quiet even though you’re right on a main street.

Perfect place for a family of four

The cabin is great, especially if you are looking for that vintage cabin feel! Everything is exactly as listed and it is in a great location. It has a great cabin/lodge/vintage feel while still having the conveniences and comforts of modern life. It’s an easy walk to town and a perfect place to chill and relax after nearby hiking.

An Adorable Cozy Stay

The cabin is exactly what we were looking for. It’s a vintage cabin with enough modern amenities, like a well stocked kitchen, fluffy towels, and great A/C that you get the cabin experience without the downsides. It’s close enough to town to drive in within minutes but doesn’t feel like you are crowded. It is a clearly loved cabin and one I appreciate that we had the opportunity to experience.

Charming historic cabin, thoughtfully appointed, in best part of town

The rustic wood interior is gorgeous. Great kitchen and bath. The hot tub is clean and the temperature was ready upon arrival, and worked perfectly. Kelly and Erin were nicely responsive. We’ve wanted to rent this cabin for a while; it finally worked out and was worth the wait. We’ll definitely try to rent Idyllcottage again!

Cute cottage close to town

Idyllcottage was the perfect cozy cabin that my family and I were looking for this winter! Besides warming up next to the charming gas fireplace, the space provided rustic charm and all the amenities (and more) that we needed! The kitchen was very well-stocked, beds were comfortable, and the natural lighting was fantastic. We also enjoyed playing in the freshly-fallen snow outside just as much as we enjoyed spending time in the cabin putting jigsaw puzzles and watching tv together. We can't wait to stay there again!

Wonderful location for our annual getaway

We choose to stay here during our 3rd annual trip to Idyllwild. This location is across the street from a lovely restaurant and only a 15 minute walk to the center of town. Kelly & Erin (Kelly's daughter) were extremely communicative, sending us a text a few days before our visit and also the morning we checked out. Our pup came with us and loved being able to hangout with us on the deck while we enjoyed the hot tub. The fireplace is connected to the thermostat, so it automatically turns on according to the settings. Very fun feature. Overall, we had a wonderful visit and look forward to checking out this cabin again in the future.

A relaxing getaway

This is a great place. I went with my husband, son and our dog. It was the first time we've traveled with our son (15 months) and dog so we were a little worried how they would do in an unfamiliar place. But to say they loved it would be an understatement! The cabin has everything you need and traveling as a new parent, we forgot a few things. Fortunately the cabin was stocked with the essentials (Ziploc bags, measuring cups, dog bowls) and also everyday items you may find you need unexpectedly (a screwdriver for a new toy we had to put together). Also, as we were packing up to leave I noticed that they had a Pack N Play/playpen in the closet. Seriously, they have EVERYTHING. I'm usually a little uncomfortable in vacation rentals but this place was so clean and comfy. We loved it. And the hot tub was the cherry on top. Highly recommended.
