Out back are several small areas tucked in the forest for you to relax and unwind.....or take a nap in the hammock!

Inside, newer contemporary furnishings and lighting give the cabin a rustic modern feeling, while the nicely equipped kitchen makes staying in a delight.

Naughty Pines is a quiet, private 2 bedroom, 1.5 bathroom cabin located on the edge of Pine Cove, CA, just a short drive and higher elevation from the town of Idyllwild.

Positioned at the end of the street, Naughty Pines is not only private, but quiet as well. The cabin features treetop and valley views and is next to a seasonal stream.

On the main floor, the cabin features a fully-equipped kitchen, laundry room, dining area, living room with fireplace and TV, WiFi, stereo with bluetooth streaming and iphone connection.

Also downstairs is the master bedroom with en suite bathroom and a powder room in the main hallway.

Upstairs, there is a loft with desk and an additional bedroom with a large, over-sized dormer window to take in the forever views.

Out back, there are several quiet sitting areas that overlook a small seasonal creek and treetop views.. where you can watch the squirrels and birds roam through the forest.

We Love Naughty Pines

We think this corner of Pine Cove is just about the best part of the Idyllwild area. The cabin is relatively new, and is perfect. Paul has always been a nice host, and we highly recommend this property.

Another great stay!

I was looking to book a stay last minute with my parents and was surprised to see Paul's place was available! It is our second time here and so worth it. The place is cozy, location is perfect, and overall a great experience. I have fond memories of staying here and look forward to staying again!

About the host

Hosted by Paul Zapala

Host profile image
We live in Palm Springs and love coming up to Idyllwild. We didn't intend on buying a cabin, but when we saw this one come on the market, we couldn't resist. Perfect combination of peace and quite, views and privacy.

Why they chose this property

This is an ideal location at the end of the street. It has great views, is very private, and isn't in a crowded area of cabins. Being the last house on the street and with a strong slope to the next lot, you don't have a house in the view's way.

What makes this property unique

This is the ultimate getaway for those that want to check out and just enjoy some peaceful mountain air and scenery. You relax the minute you step on the deck. Put some bird seed in the bird feeder and watch the wildlife around you.
