About this property

Hip, Secluded 2BR/2BA Cabin Unmatched Panoramic Views and Charm Among the Pines

Permit #RVC-2240

Welcome to Mountain View Treehouse, a light-filled 2BR/2BA cabin perched in the treetops of Pine Cove, just 3 miles from Idyllwild town center. Offering total privacy—your nearest neighbors are 1,000 feet away—this isn’t your grandmother’s cabin! It’s a newly remodeled retreat that blends rustic mountain charm with modern luxury.

The Home

Soaring vaulted ceilings, wood beams, clerestory windows, and a beautiful rock fireplace create a cozy yet stylish mountain vibe. Large windows frame unmatched panoramic views, while three separate decks invite you to relax, birdwatch, or sip morning coffee surrounded by nature.

The home sits on over half an acre of explorable land with a private knoll, picnic spots, and a brand-new grill for outdoor dining. Despite the privacy, you’re just a 5-minute drive to town and a short walk to Pine Cove Market for wine, beer, and essentials.

Bedrooms & Baths

Master Suite: Spacious with its own sitting area, fireplace, flat-screen Roku TV, evaporative cooler, and a private deck with breathtaking views.

Second Bedroom: Comfortable and inviting, ideal for family or friends.
The cabin includes 1.5 newly remodeled bathrooms stocked with fluffy towels, shampoo, conditioner, and body wash.

Comfort & Amenities

Stay cool with a brand-new AC unit upstairs, or cozy up by the fireplace on chilly nights. Ultra-high-speed internet (400 Mbps) makes remote work or streaming easy, and both TVs are equipped with Roku plus a Blu-ray player with a DVD library.

The fully remodeled kitchen features stainless appliances, a Bosch dishwasher, and all the tools you’ll need to prepare a gourmet meal. Coffee maker, blender, and toaster included.

Why Guests Love It

This guest did not stay at our home. They were given a full refund in exchange for leaving immediately. We graciously granted this in light of guest behavior which raised safety concerns. We have requested that the review be removed.

The house was great with all amenities considered and provided. Different types of coffee machines, a kettle and good coffee were provided. The setting was gorgeous with outdoor seating and dining. There was an outdoor grill but we didn't use it. The WiFi was powerful and easy to use. Check-in and checkout were flawless.

The host, Mark, was amazing to work with and patiently answered my many questions. The cabin was perfectly cleaned and supplied with everything we could have possibly needed. It was so convenient to the town of Idyllwild and the little shops and restaurants located there. What stood out most, were the incredible views and the peaceful surroundings. Watching the snow fall was awesome! We can’t wait to go back. Thank you, Mark!

The VIEWS!!!! Sunrise and sunset!!!! We’ve been coming to Idyllwild multiple times a year for 29 years and those views are really hard to beat. And because we’ve been coming here for so long, our list of non-negotiables is lengthy. One of those is comfy seating to do all the lounging and game playing and cooking and viewing. This place had that on point. Swivel and rocking chairs out back. Large comfortable dining chairs on the deck. Swivel lounge chair with ottoman in livingroom. Round glass top table perfect for puzzles and games and dinners. Absolutely fantastic stay!!!

Our three-night stay at the mountain cabin was fantastic! The cabin is cozy, well-equipped, and perfectly located with stunning views of the mountains and surrounding trees. The back deck was the highlight, offering a peaceful spot to enjoy the fresh air and feed the friendly birds and enjoy wildlife. It felt like a private retreat, with everything we needed to relax and unwind. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a cozy, nature-filled getaway!
