About this property
Luxury Hilltop Log Cabin On 4.5 Acres. Panoramic Views and Pet Friendly
Welcome to our spacious luxury log cabin nestled in the heart of the mountains! The cabin can accommodate up to 12 guests with 4 bedrooms & 2 baths The interior is warm & inviting with rustic charm & features a stone fireplace & hardwood floors with plenty of natural light. The fully-equipped kitchen has everything you need to cook up a storm and the large dining table is perfect for family meals. The outdoor deck is the perfect spot to relax and take in the breathtaking views. Whether you wish to explore the great outdoors or simply enjoy a secluded getaway, our cabin has it all.
PET POLICY
The property is pet-friendly, allowing up to two small dogs (under 35 lbs each) or one large dog no heavier than 60 lbs. A non-refundable $100 pet fee per stay applies, so please include your pet in the booking under the number of guests.
Our cabin is short 10 minute drive to downtown Idyllwild, with access to many restaurants and shops, as well as a brand new amazing playground structure at the town’s community center. It is an even shorter drive to the Idyllwild Nature Center, which offers an indoor interactive area for kids, many great hikes and picnic areas in the summer and great sledding in the winter. Humber Park is also nearby, which has hiking in the summer and great sledding in the winter (it tends to be about 15 degrees colder here so always bring some warm clothing!). The Idyllwild community is known as an artist’s town. There is the annual Jazz in the Pines Festival the last weekend in August, as well as many other Art and Nature oriented events throughout the year.
Idyllwild is about an hour drive away from Palm Springs and Palm Desert, and 1.5-2.5 hours away from Orange County, Los Angeles and San Diego.

About the host
Hosted by Mark S Tettenburn
We are a family of four from San Diego who have always wanted a cabin in the mountains to call our own. We have two little girls who love to run and play outside and whom we look forward to raising to love the outdoors as we do. We enjoy the small town feel of Idyllwild and love to hike and play in the snow. We look forward to sharing our vacation home and this great 'on the hill' experience with others!
Why they chose this property
This log cabin was previously owned by a family who raised their children for over 20 years in Idyllwild. It was their home and very cherished and well cared for. We were honored to buy it from them and have a place for our little girls to enjoy and grow up going to as well. It is a spacious log home with a huge property to run, play, and hike on. There are breathtaking western views and it is in close proximity to town with a far-away feel.
What makes this property unique
We provide many amenities, including full kitchen supplies for cooking family dinners. We also offer two KING bedrooms, which is a rare find on the hill.
