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.

We had a wonderful stay at this cabin. It was spotless, peaceful, and fully equipped with everything we needed. Just a short drive to town, and the host was extremely responsive and helpful.

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.
This cabin was one of my all-time great VRBO finds. I loved everything about it (including its A/C, which is a rare feature in Idyllwild). I can't wait to stay here again.
This was a great place for four friends to get together to relax, play games and enjoy each others company. The cabin was modern and had beautiful views. I would definitely come back.
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!!!
It was a wonderful experience in every way. Booking was easy and all the information we needed was provided and easy to understand. The place exceeded our expectations. It was pristine and well appointed, We loved the kitchen and dining area. The views of the mountains were spectacular! The guests' every need was anticipated.We look forward to our next 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!
This property was excellent. It was well appointed, relaxing, and good communication with owner.
We will stay again.

About the host
Hosted by Mark E Dubas
I love buying truly special properties and enjoy the fact that I can share them with so many others. It is my eighth year with my own vacation rental business. I have taken such pride in our other properties that I am happy to say that we boast a five star rating on VRBO and countless incredible reviews from our valued VRBO customers. An avid vacation renter myself, I like to provide my guests with every amenity they could possibly need to make their stay a relaxing and memorable one.
Why they chose this property
I fell in love with the charming community of Idyllwild after my very first visit. After searching for the perfect property for over three years, I knew that this place was special from the minute I walked in the door. It was like nothing I had seen before- light and bright with windows boasting incredible views everywhere. With three separate decks, soaring wood ceilings, a flawless floor plan and charm to spare, I can truly say that this fully remodeled stunner is my dream mountain getaway. The home sits on a double lot totaling almost three-quarters of an acre of prime mountain land. I love exploring the property and collecting pine cones and manzanita branches. When you are at this property, you truly feel that you have gotten away from it all. Particularly when you come home from a fabulous meal at night and stand on the deck taking in the most incredible view of the stars I have ever seen. What can I say, the place really is magic.
What makes this property unique
Because this home sits on a mountainside nestled on a private road, it boasts incredible views and a peaceful environment. Sitting on the deck watching the birds come to feed at the birdhouse is one of my favorite pastimes. I even provide a bird watching book and binoculars so that you can identify your new friends. Because of the "windows everywhere" concept of this house, even on a cold day while nestled in front of the fire, you feel like you are outside in the middle of nature. This home is truly a luxury accommodation. High thread count sheets, soft fluffy towels and comfortable pillows all make for a relaxing stay. Because cooking is a passion of mine, the home is stocked with high quality pots and pans, beautiful dishes and glassware and every kitchen utensil you might need to cook a gourmet meal. The home also has a brand new chef's quality infrared grill. For those snow-filled wintry days, the home has a beautiful wood burning fireplace/stove and lots of items to entertain you - smart flat screen television, Blu-ray disk player, dvd's, board games and a large book collection. With all that it has to offer, this home truly is the perfect mountain getaway.
