This cabin is exceptionally clean and organized! Host very responsive. Location to town just two minutes away. The only caveat- we didn’t know the driveway was steep and rocky until we received checking in instructions. It is best to back down and then get a running start to head back up. Super tight parking at bottom if you head down. Not the best for two older ladies, but we did it. But really a great cabin. Lots of trees, birds, squirrels, rabbits. Pleasantly peaceful.

We had a great stay! The cabin is extremely cozy, warm, and comfortable. Everything was well cleaned and the bathroom was spacious and spotless which was important to me.The lazy gnome cottage is well-equipped, with clear instructions and thoughtful notes around the cabin, which made everything easy. The host was very responsive and helpful. With rainy days during our stay, this cozy cabin was the perfect place to relax. We stayed for 3 days with my husband and our fur baby and really enjoyed it. Would happily return again!
Very thankful Tim shared his ebleskiver pan for me to have an opportunity to make them! I brought a lot of flour and other panties for this😄

About the host

Hosted by Tim H

Host profile image
We are parents of two grown girls and two loving pups! We have lived in Southern California for 22 years. Our previous home was in Eugene, OR. We have always yearned to have a quiet place in the woods to take us back to the feelings of "getting into nature" that we used to enjoy when living in the Pacific Northwest. This year we were able to realize this dream by purchasing our cute little cabin. We so enjoy spending time here in the quiet and want to share this experience with others.

Why they chose this property

The proximity to the charming village of Idyllwild was our main reason for choosing this location. It's only about a mile from the village and has beautiful cedars as well as mountain views. We are also very close to many hiking trails. The sunny deck in front is a great place to relax as well as enjoy the sunset. While our little cabin is on a private unpaved road, access is easy as we are the first house on the road. Since the cabin is set lower than the main street, there is a feeling of privacy here.

What makes this property unique

The craftsmanship of the interior is unique and whimsical. There is actually a little house within the house where the wall between the kitchen and dining room was crafted as a little house with roof, chimney and other details, with a pass-through that can be closed with little shutters.
