Charming, Dog-Friendly Two-Story Cabin Lodge with Deck - Great for Families
It's about time you treated yourself to an escape, and this dog-friendly Idyllwild vacation rental is the perfect place to do it! Relax and rejuvenate in this gorgeous log cabin, enjoying the warm wood-burning fireplace, evergreen tree surroundings, and restorative atmosphere all around you.
Located in peaceful Idyllwild, CA, voted L.A.'s Best Mountain Getaway, this quiet cabin will give you some much-needed rest and seclusion from your busy life. Take a breather and take it easy. Here in Idyllwild we have you covered, and you don't need to worry about a thing. More adventurous travelers will also love the proximity to the Suicide Rock trailhead and Tahquitz Rock for hiking and rock climbing.
Everyone in your group will want to spend their time in the living room, curled up on one of two couches as the fire crackles merrily from the wood-burning fireplace. During the day, you'll love looking out the large, floor-to-ceiling windows at the trees, reading a book or watching a show on the flatscreen. The TV also has a DVD player, so remind the kids to bring their favorites from home! If they forget, there's a selection of movies provided for your use.
Calling all aspiring chefs! If you love to cook, the fully equipped kitchen is the perfect place for you to prepare and enjoy a delectable meal. Complete with modern appliances, cookware, and a small dining table when it's time to eat, you'll be more than comfortable dining here.
At bedtime, you'll have your choice between two spacious bedrooms, each with intricate wood detailing and a queen-size bed, and one master with a queen-size bed, an en suite bathroom with a jetted tub, and private deck access. There is also one more full bathroom for your use. A double futon right in the living room is also available to sleep a couple more guests, for a total of eight. Dogs are also welcome to come along for an additional nightly pet fee.
Worried about missing out on work back home? Bring your laptop along, connect to the free WiFi, and never miss a thing! You'll have so many amenities here to make sure you're comfortable and feeling right at home, from the WiFi and cable to keep you connected to the washer/dryer to ensure your things are nice and clean. You'll even have a library of books and selection of games to choose from.
In the summertime, step outside to the deck where you'll find a dining table, your very own gas grill, and gorgeous views of the surrounding forests. You'll love spending time out here, enjoying your meal in the great outdoors or reading a book as you breathe in the fresh mountain air.
In Idyllwild, Shakespeare fans will love checking out 'Will in the Woods,' an annual production each fall which features selections from the Bard's plays and sonnets. Besides this famous festival, there is also an annual international film festival and plenty more arts-focused events throughout the year.
If you're less about the arts and more about exploring the great outdoors, Idyllwild has that too! Climb over rugged landscapes, doing your best 'Wild' impression as you hike part of the infamous Pacific Crest Trail, or play it safer and explore one of the many trails and rock climbing sites closer to your home away from home.

Cabin is absolutely wonderful, clean well furnished beautiful kitchen, beautiful views many stairs, but we were able to navigate them. Just everything about the cabin is perfect.
It was exactly what we were looking for! Excellent stay. Love the feeling of the cabin, huge windows and gorgeous views. Kitchen is nicely equipped. The layout was ideal for us. Our 132lb dog stayed comfortably downstairs. The covers for the couch downstairs were so thoughtful. The place is within walking distance to our favorite Ernie Maxwell trail.

Great mountain house
Terrific views in all directions from the wraparound deck. Clean and comfy. Nice open layout in kitchen, dining and family room. Good lighting. Quiet but close to town. We had a great time.
Wonderful two story cabin with a great kitchen and deck, perfect for lounging and entertaining. Bedrooms are very nice and up to date, with a marvelous soaker tub in the master. Perfect for a stay amongst the trees!
This house was a great place to relax with friends for a holiday weekend. My dog is very reactive to fireworks, and this area is super calm and quiet. The spiral stairs up to the main level can be a bit of a challenge for some canine companions, but if they’re small it’s easy to carry them up. Overall it was a beautiful place to stay and we would return!

Thank you so much for sharing your wonderful feedback. We're delighted to hear that you found our home to be a great place to relax with friends over the holiday weekend. It’s fantastic that the calm and quiet neighborhood was a good fit for your dog, especially with fireworks being a concern. We appreciate your note about the spiral stairs. Your thoughtful insights will surely assist future guests. We're so glad you enjoyed the beauty of the home and that you’re already thinking about returning. We can’t wait to welcome you back for another memorable stay.
Clean, comfy, quiet. Close to town. Well appointed kitchen. Good beds. We all felt right at home. Good lighting over dining room table for playing games. The deck and barbecue were perfect for summer meals outdoors. I’d stay at this home again!
Our family from Europe was visiting and we wanted to give them a taste of cabin living in Idyllwild - this cabin and location was perfect. We relaxed, hiked, laughed and caught up in this beautiful space. The views from the wrap around porch were stunning!

Very spacious rooms! Great views! Wrap around deck on upper level really cool. Great cooking kitchen and tools available.
No one mentioned the steep long stairs to front door or the spiral staircase to main floor- only a problem with heavy luggage or coolers for a longer stay... Still worth it!
The house is very pretty and clean. Very conveniently located to both the town of Idlewild and also to fantastic hiking. Just what we were looking for.

Relaxing weekend getaway.
This house was perfect for our family getaway. I loved the huge windows and wrap around deck that provided a great view of the outdoors. The spiral stairs were a little tricky for the dog, but he figured it out after the first day.

We had 3 adults and 2 dogs. This property was perfect. Our favorite feature was the wrap around deck and giant windows. It’s just a few minutes from town and very quiet and relaxing.
