About the host
Hosted by Melissa Wilson
WELCOME HOME! My homes are homes, not your typical vacation rental. I pride myself in making sure all homes are stocked and your needs are met and then some. In addition to being a 20+ year local and an artist/designer, I worked for the Hotel Del Coronado for years so I know five-star hospitality well. Everything you need is waiting for you and anything else you may want, just ask.
***MY HOMES ARE ALL PROFESSIONALLY CLEANED by my amazing cleaning crew. I pay my crew a living wage and tip them often to save you extra fees.
Please take a look at all nine of my listings (Inquire about my other listings not shown), read the reviews and choose the home that fits your needs www.vrbo.com/968530, www.vrbo.com/1106622, www.vrbo.com/1992097 and www.vrbo.com/1134743
I have been living in Idyllwild, working as an artist and teaching art at the local boarding high school, Idyllwild Arts Academy, for over 20 years. I started my renovation projects with my own 1955 total redesign and then wanted to share it with all of you. I love remodeling, designing and hospitality so much I decided to help others create their dream vacation rentals. I keep my business small so I can guarantee each guest gets the personal five-star treatment that you all deserve. I hope you feel the passion and love that went into all of these places and fall in love with their charismatic, cozy charm as much as I have. Relax, put your feet up, pour a glass of your favorite beverage and feel “home”.
