Architectural Idyllwild Retreat | Views, Hot Tub, Koi Pond, Dog Friendly

Welcome to Quail Ridge, your private mountain retreat in Idyllwild — a luxury 3-bedroom, 2-bath cabin perched above the treetops in the sought-after Pine Cove neighborhood. With sweeping panoramic views of Tahquitz Peak, elevated privacy, and resort-style outdoor living, this is the kind of place you book when you want something truly special — not just a cabin, but an experience. Set on over a third of an acre with an additional adjacent lot, this property offers a rare sense of space, serenity, and connection to nature — all just minutes from town. Beds: K, Q, Q

INDOOR LIVING SPACES
Step through the striking Frank Lloyd Wright–inspired entry and into a dramatic great room where architecture and nature come together beautifully. Open-truss ceilings soar overhead while walls of windows flood the space with natural light and frame breathtaking mountain views. The living area is anchored by a massive native stone wood-burning fireplace — the perfect place to gather after a day of hiking or exploring. Knotty pine walls add warmth and authenticity, creating the elevated “modern mountain” aesthetic that today's travelers are seeking.

The fully upgraded kitchen is designed for both everyday ease and elevated entertaining, featuring cherry-style cabinetry, granite countertops, a copper sink, and a premium six-burner double oven range. Whether you're preparing a quiet breakfast or hosting a full dinner, this space delivers. Central heating and air conditioning ensure year-round comfort — cool in the summer, cozy in the winter.

OUTDOOR LIVING SPACES
This is where the home truly shines. The expansive view deck is designed for lingering — morning coffee with mountain views, afternoon lounging, and evenings under the stars. The private hot tub is perfectly positioned to take in the iconic backdrop of Tahquitz Peak, creating a true spa-like experience. Enjoy multiple outdoor living zones, including comfortable lounge seating, alfresco dining, and a large propane grill for outdoor cooking. Gather around the fire pit as the sun sets or unwind beneath shaded awnings during the day.

Just below the deck, a tranquil koi pond with dual waterfalls adds a peaceful soundtrack of flowing water — elevating the entire outdoor experience. The fenced yard (with dog ramp access from the deck) makes this home especially ideal for guests traveling with dogs, while the rare 2-car attached garage adds convenience you won't often find in Idyllwild.

SLEEPING QUARTERS
All three bedrooms are thoughtfully designed to deliver comfort, privacy, and a restful night's sleep after a day in the mountains. The primary suite features a King bed and a calm, serene ambiance that mirrors the natural surroundings. Two additional guest bedrooms each offer Queen beds, making this home ideal for families, couples, or small groups traveling together. Two full bathrooms are well-appointed and conveniently located to serve both shared and private spaces.

PET POLICY
Dog-friendly home (maximum of 2 dogs). The fenced yard and direct deck access make this an easy and comfortable stay for guests traveling with their pets.

THE LOCATION
Located in Pine Cove — one of Idyllwild's most peaceful and scenic enclaves — this home sits approximately 1,000 feet above town, offering cooler temperatures, incredible views, and a true sense of escape.
Despite the privacy, you're just a short 6-minute drive to the heart of Idyllwild Village, where you'll find charming restaurants, local coffee shops, art galleries, live music, and boutique shopping. Outdoor adventure is right outside your door. Explore nearby hiking trails, including Devil's Slide Trail, Humber Park, and Marion Mountain Trail, leading toward Mount San Jacinto. Spend a relaxing afternoon at Lake Fulmor, or venture into Mount San Jacinto State Park for miles of pristine wilderness. In the winter months, the area transforms into a quiet alpine escape — perfect for snow play, hiking, and cozy fireside evenings.
