Fully modernized inside and out, the kitchen features everything you will need. The A/C will keep you cozy/cool as needed, as will our modern bathroom with heated floors and Yanxuan toilet seat! The private hot tub and yoga deck are all designed with comfort in mind--there is no better way to experience Idyllwild, Pine Cove & Fern Valley.

Idyhaven is an eco-friendly luxury cabin nestled in the San Jacinto Mountains of Idyllwild, California, and a few minutes away from Idyllwild-Pine Cove, and Fern Valley. Embracing a carbon-neutral approach, we recently added solar power, energy-saving appliances, and implemented a drinking water filtration system. It is our intention to give back to the area of outstanding natural beauty by focusing on sustainable, eco-conscious choices. The cabin is cleaned with only biodegradable products and laundry detergent which is in alignment with our greywater reuse and recycle system. We also provide vegan, cruelty-free amenities for our guests.
Through hospitality, we aim to inspire our guests to seek out a socially and environmentally responsible lifestyle. Leaving the mountain as they found her.

About the host

Hosted by Sascha Breuer

Host profile image
Welcome! Hi, we’re Kate & Sascha, the owners of Idyhaven. We're passionate about eco-friendly living and designed and built Idyhaven to introduce our guests to the magic of Idyllwild and inspire others to adopt clean building & living practices at home.

Why they chose this property

We first fell in love with the town of Idyllwild and its community back in 2018 when we rented a cabin for our wedding anniversary. Idyhaven, is truly our haven. When we first found our cabin, we were flabbergasted by its spectacular view of Marion Mountain. Earlier that year we had taken a late honeymoon in Japan, where we were lucky enough to experience a fantastic hotel in Mt. Fuji - all of the cabins there were arranged to have a private view of the volcano. The experience of having a private view gave us the inspiration to recreate the feeling of our own private mountain. Idyhaven was born.


One mile high, Idyllwild is a micro-climate, making all who visit distinctly aware of Mother Nature and her many gifts to us. Located in the San Bernardino National Forest, set amongst tall pines and sweet-smelling cedars, it was the perfect place to rest and retreat. Our stay was so unforgettable that we kept thinking about Idyllwild and found ourselves wanting our very own cabin.

The search began, and after looking at many beautiful cabins in the area, we settled on Double View Drive

This cabin has been a labor of love for us, and it is now a sanctuary where we rest and reconnect with nature. We hope you will enjoy the peace and fresh air of the San Jacinto mountains, just as we did on our memorable first visit, and come back often.

What makes this property unique

An eco-friendly, luxury cabin nestled in the mountains of Idyllwild, California. Sit back and enjoy the incredible views, take a breath of fresh air, and relax in an eco-utopia

We fell in love with Idyllwild on our first visit, as do most people who visit this special town. Nature is abundant here and having witnessed so many visitors enjoying this unique environment over the years, we are determined to give back by embracing a carbon-neutral approach. Our cabin has solar panels and energy-saving appliances. All our used water flows to a grey-water system where it is used to water our garden and grounds. We installed a drinking-water filtration system to actively encourage our guests to avoid bringing single-use plastic to the mountains. In line with this approach, our housekeeping crew uses only biodegradable products and laundry detergent, We also provide vegan, cruelty-free amenities for our guests during their stay.

Idyhaven is not just a luxury retreat, but an ecological project. We are continually working to make our cabin as sustainable as possible.
— Solar Powered
We installed our Solar Panels and are about to install Tesla power walls making the cabin energy efficient and able to run off-grid when needed.
— Filtered Water
Our Reverse Osmosis System provides drinking water for our guests and the wildlife on our property. We hope to inspire our guests to avoid bringing single-use plastic bottles to the mountain and our Idyhaven.
— Reverse Osmosis Water Filtration System
— Water Recycling
By reclaiming and recycling our water we provide a cost-effective way to upkeep our garden, whilst keeping our trees happy and helping to prevent wildfires.
— Upgrading Idyhaven
Renovating the cabin took two years. During that time we worked closely with the local community to find the best solutions to protect our environment.
