This is a lovely place to stay, quiet, meticulously clean, well appointed, peaceful, sprinkled with local art, tastefully decorated. The location is perfect at the end of the street looking out over the valley with twinkling lights, a cozy cloud blanket at times and an abundance of sparkling bird chirps nestled in a lovely neighborhood. This property feels very secluded the way it is situated. Highly recommend, you will not be disappointed.

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.
