Birdsong has been one of Idyllwild's most popular getaways for over 20 years. Lovingly remodeled by the present owners, it offers your own parking space and complete privacy 100 feet back from a tree lined street, at the end of a lighted path, with a deck and private side yard overlooking the forest and seasonal creek. Centrally located on Scenic Drive in Fern Valley, midway between Village Center Drive and Fern Valley Corners
It's light, cheery and comfortable with many personal art items, and the cleaning staff has often commented that it's their favorite spot to care for of over 40 cabins.
The upstairs bedroom features a ceiling mural of the sky, color TV/DVD/VCR, 4 windows with views of the forest and rocky gorge, and 2 skylights from which you might awaken to a family of raccoons peeking in!
The first floor has a full kitchen, 3/4 bath with large shower, 2 comfortable sofas (one a fold-out that sleeps 1), a dining table and 4 chairs, a color TV/DVD/VCR, AM/FM radio, a glass faced woodstove (as well as electric heat), and twin French doors leading to the deck. At night there are small lights dotting the rocks all around.
Secure WiFi with password is provided free of charge.
There's a telephone for local calls, and AT&T cell phone reception is excellent.
Previous guests have left complimentary remarks in the guest books, and hopefully you'll enjoy browsing through them and leaving some thoughts of your own.
This cozy hideaway is not used part time by the owners but has been created just for those lucky enough to discover it.
Nestled in one of Fern Valley's prettiest neighborhoods, it's a pleasant walk to the village center of Idyllwild, Fern Valley corners, shops, restaurants, galleries, the Idyllwild Historical Society museum and the town's quaint Rustic Theatre. Just 10 minutes to Humber Park and Tahquitz Rock, A MUST SEE during your visit.

Why the Owner Chose Idyllwild
My wife and I purchased our summer home in 1983 and a few years later created our very private guest house, Birdsong. It has been a joy making improvements each year and wonderful to hear the appreciative comments of our guests.
