Cute property but no AC or heat and no drinkable water. We’re not told beforehand and property manger never responded regarding there fact the super old fridge water dispenser and ice dispenser didn’t work. Stairs in and out of home seem fairly unsteady as well

Overall, this was a great property! Lots of room and very clean, except for a few things. Overall, I would totally recommend this property, however, the driveway is super steep so if you are coming in the winter that could be a problem.

Fully stocked house in great location

I really liked that the kitchen was fully stocked with everything you need . The location is great, in the woods but you have such a great little town down the hill. People around the area were very friendly.

The location was perfect and the home is exactly as described and listed. Close to town and in relative proximity to Lake Hemet. We’d definitely come back to this home. Sleeps 10 but there are only 4 of us. The driveway is incredibly steep…FOLKS SHOULD BACK IN for ease of departure!

Our immediate family of seven stayed for a few days to attend my daughter’s wedding in Idyllwild. The property was perfect for our needs, very clean with spacious seating areas. A few items showed some wear and tear, but nothing major. Be forewarned that the driveway and entry stairs are very steep, a challenge for anyone with mobility impairments.

There are a lot of stairs, the driveway tricky, no amenities such as tissue, blow dryers, so make sure to bring extra, other than that the cabin was clean, quiet, peaceful, safe, and can use a bedroom upgrade on furniture. Had a nice week there.

We loved our stay in this cabin! It was perfect for our group of four adults. It was a great space to relax, work a puzzle, and play games. We enjoyed the outside patio and the nice breeze. We prepared several meals at home, and the kitchen was adequately equipped. There are also some great hiking trails nearby. We were there during a hot week with the highs in the 90s. I was concerned that we would be really uncomfortable and disappointed that there was no AC. But by opening up the house when it had cooled down every night, using the fans for airflow, and leaving it open until the morning, we were able to keep it cool enough.As others have stated, the driveway is steep. One of our low sitting cars scraped a little when pulling in or out of the driveway. There was a small issue with refrigerator leaking onto the floor. It didn’t seem to affect the performance fridge or freezer, although they were on the older side and had no water or ice dispenser. Customer service responded appropriately, and hopefully it is resolved now.I think it should also be noted that the entrance to the loft area is through the door of the master bedroom. So just beware of that if you’re planning to use that area as a sleeping area. We had an EV and a hybrid which we needed to charge. Using a long extension cord from the porch area down to the driveway, we were able to charge one vehicle at a time. We would stay here again, given the opportunity, especially in more moderate weather.

Lil house in the woods.

Nice family get away. Cute house in woodsy area. We saw a large deer and very large coyote walk by the back porch in the evening. It's not walkable to the town but the drive is short and easy. Wifi worked well. Master bedroom is open to a balcony overlooking the entrance. Nice (but not a lot of acoustic privacy). Be aware that the driveway is very steep. We used rocks to prevent rolling. It has all the basics to have a nice family get together.

This property has inaccurate information on the listing they say it as amenities it does not. Also be very aware it has no air-conditioning and in the summer is impossible to get below 90°. When there’s an issue everybody points their Finger Expedia doesn’t take responsibility. The owner doesn’t take responsibility and VRBO doesn’t take responsibility. They’re a joke. I would stay as far away from this and any of their properties. It’s also important note that Expedia was terrible as well. They blamed VRBO and the owner. The owner blamed VRBO and Expedia and VRBO blamed Expedia and the owner. What a joke.

Charming Getaway

This property was the perfect getaway for our family. The downstairs area was spacious and open and perfect for our family of 7 to hang out. They had a variety of board games for the kids to play (teens -3 year old) and there is access to apps on the Smart TV. You can enjoy nature by sitting in the backyard on the comfy outdoor furniture and the kitchen has a nice big island for you to cook in. I love that it was open so that you can still enjoy the family while cooking. Rooms are a nice size and bathrooms have been updated. The beds could be improved. They aren’t the comfiest, but no one complained of a sore back on the trip. The driveway is very steep. We had a van and kept scratching the bottom of our car trying to get in and out. However, having said all that, we loved the property and would stay here again.

Oh DEER!

What a charming space with an incredible location! We brought my father in-law and mother in-law out along with my family for a long weekend to celebrate their birthday and what an amazing weekend! We had at least 25 deer run through the yard while we were in the fully stocked kitchen (that we saw)! We were able to cook our meals all together and go hiking up the road everyday. The hiking near by CANT be beat with a beautiful trail with tree coverage all along. The charming downtown area is maybe a 3-5 minute drive from the house and a great spot for shopping, baked goods or some seriously amazing food at FARROS if your looking for a great Italian dinner perfect to celebrate at! The master bedroom was a great space with tons of room and a sweet little deck. The 2 other bedrooms were nice and the bathrooms were clean. The sink in fireplace was so cool! My one thing you will definitely need to prepared for is there are a LOT of steps and a very steep driveway so be ready to get your steps in for the day!
