Welcome to Little Dairy Haven! This charming cottage is the perfect escape for a romantic weekend getaway, whether you're with a loved one or enjoying some peaceful solitude. As you step onto the property, you'll be captivated by its country charm, with each detail carefully crafted to reflect the history of the land as a former dairy farm.

Great stay with room for improvement

Good check in process, you go to the office location to pick up keys before heading to the property. Property was fairly clean, both inside and out but the floors were not fully swept, hot tub was completely dissassembled for 2/4 days, and only one heater worked slightly so the room was freezing the first night. Good for summer but probably not winter.

Dairy cottage

It was nice although we could have done without the trench on the middle of the yard. The bedspread and pillow cover smell of sweat and lastly the cable did not work.

Loved my stay!

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: My husband and I loved our stay. It was the perfect little cottage for two. The room was clean and had everything we needed. A mini fridge, hot plate, and utensils. Plenty of towels and an A/C unit inside. The hot tub was so great to have and made the stay extra special. The front desk service at check in and out was great too and they were very accommodating when we had trouble figuring out the outside lights for the hot tub. The place is also walking distance to the town which was an added bonus. Would come back for a quiet little get away again!

Definitely a studio

Rating Details: The property manager was adequately helpful. The vacation rental was somewhat dirty. I was more than happy with the location. I was somewhat dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The cottage was nice. Quaint, clean enough and had some charm. Small kitchen, but nice to have a BBQ grill to work with. The yard, however, was something else. Overgrown, unkempt, with a creek running through it which flooded most of the property. Granted, I know it's been a wet year and the water is everywhere, but maybe a raking and weed whack would make quite a but of difference. Overall, we didn't think it was worth the money we paid, but hey, you win some and lose some...

Reviewer Comments: My wife got covid and had a big fever the day before and I tried to reschedule but new spirit said they wouldn’t and charged me full price and I didn’t even get to stay. Pretty sad seeing I use them for all of my stays in idylwild. Not anymore. Stay away.

This is run by a 3rd party Management Company

I thought I was renting from the home owner when I booked this. But no… it’s some 3rd party management company with terrible reviews. They have 2 out of 5 stars. Search Google Reviews and Yelp for New Spirit Vacation Rentals before considering booking this.

Filthy and disgusting!

I was very dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The absolute worst place we've ever stayed in our lifes. Filthy! Spiders crawling on the walls, cob webs everywhere, shower that not only didn't drain, **** came up from the bottom, no TV or internet. They sent Amber over to fix it bit she couldn't so she told us to watch a "disk". Who travels with DVDs?? Fire hazard outlets, boards with nails sticking out, a **** heater that didn't get above 63 degrees in temperatures in the teens. You could get MERSA in that place. Absolutely should be closed down. Only one amenity worked.

This was absolutely, by far and away the most disgusting and terrible place I have ever stayed in my life. My husband and I wanted to get out of Los Angeles for a cozy, romantic ten year anniversary getaway. Check in isn't until 4pm and check out is at 10am. This place is around 100sqft and absolutely filthy! Why did we pay a cleaning fee?? Cob webs everywhere, spiders crawling on the walls, the fan blades are covered in thick dust, the "white" window curtains are stained and filthy and a dingy yellow color, the shower doesn't drain while you're using it and in fact, crap comes up from the drain. Other peoples, hair, fur etc... This place advertises soap and a TV. We had no soap in the bathroom and the TV is internet only. That was fine until it just shut off 10 minutes after we got there. We called and they sent someone named Amber over to fix it. After she she couldn't fix it she suggested we watch a "disk" for the night. My husband and I don't travel with DVDs nor should we have to when paying for this amenity. There was one DVD that someone had left which was "The Deer Hunter". I guess we were expected to have that on repeat until the following day. Amber said they'd send someone over the next day to fix it. No one came and no one called us. A heater that doesn't get over 63 degrees in overnight temps in the 20s and boards with nails sticking out. Plus fire hazard outlets! Close this place down!!

Usually when we go to Idyllwild we go tent camping, but we wanted a bit of warmth and comfort this time around - this cottage was perfect. It was cozy, clean, warm and the hot tub was fabulous. Location is great, quiet but easy walk into town center. Highly recommend.

Was mostly great. The cable worked the first day and went out after that and never came back. The shower doesn't drain well. Fills up when you shower and takes quite awhile to drain.
