About the host

Hosted by Spencer MacDonald

Host profile image
We’re Spencer and Trish — husband and wife and parents to two toddlers who love discovering new places, good food, and local charm. After years of exploring, we decided to create spaces where others can do the same: relax, recharge, and make lasting memories. We enjoy sharing our favorite local experiences and hidden gems with guests, and we take pride in creating comfortable, thoughtful stays that feel like a true home away from home. Whether you’re visiting for adventure, a quiet getaway, or just to enjoy the scenery, we look forward to welcoming you and helping you feel at ease the moment you arrive.

We also offer a neighboring cabin here in Idyllwild (https://www.vrbo.com/4864466), perfect if you’re traveling with friends or family who’d like their own space with a peaceful creekside setting.

We also host homes in Park City (https://www.vrbo.com/4898367) and San Diego (https://www.vrbo.com/4896604) chosen for their own unique beauty, local spirit, and year-round appeal.

Why they chose this property

We chose this spot because it’s surrounded by nature yet just a short walk to town. Our family loves exploring the trails, wandering along Strawberry Creek, and visiting the local restaurants and shops that give Idyllwild its creative, mountain-town charm. It’s the perfect blend of seclusion and community warmth — a place where you can slow down, explore, and feel part of the landscape. We’re always happy to share our favorite local spots to help you make the most of your stay.

What makes this property unique

Our cabins offer rare privacy along Strawberry Creek while still being walkable to shops and restaurants. Each combines rustic mountain charm with modern comfort — warm wood interiors, cozy fireplaces, and peaceful forest views. Thoughtful details like plush linens, fully equipped kitchens, and open, inviting spaces make them true retreats where you can unwind, connect with nature, and feel right at home.
