This cabin feels like home. All the necessities have been provided. The only plus would be a dishwasher. Otherwise, it’s close to perfect.

This cabin is amazing. So clean and had all the amenities you need. Very close to town, but far enough away to have some peace and quit. We will definitely book here again.

Mountain cabin perfect for rest and relaxation
We stayed close to Idyllwild Pines Camp so we could visit with campers and friends during day and retreat to alone time at the cabin for restful sleep. Cabin was perfect for 4 of us adults.

Lovely Cabin
We had a wonderful time at Elk Horn Retreat. We stayed 5 nights and loved every minute of it. The cabin is beautifully decorated, well furnished, and extremely comfortable. The location is very private and an easy drive to town. Highly recommend this cabin for a stay in Idyllwild.

Thank you for such a beautiful cabin. And the location is amazing. My family and I enjoyed our short time there. The stairs are a bit much if you have elderly or people who don’t do stairs, but worth it!!

Christmas Getaway
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay during the Christmas holiday. The cabin was charming and had everything we needed. The kitchen was well-stocked so that we were able to cook a festive Christmas dinner and other meals during our stay. Please note there was no grill outside, but the host provided a small "Foreman" type grill for inside use. Quite a few trails were able to be accessed directly from the property which we loved! Another note: A pack of cayote walked close to the house one afternoon. We were very glad our dogs were inside at the time.We would gladly book another stay at this adorable dog-friendly cabin!

Cabin in the woods
We had lots of wildlife, enough trees and space between the road and other neighbors that we had great privacy. A great hiking trail just off the property. Loved it!

Great cabin
The cabin is lovely. Well laid out & nicely appointed. The central heat was nice- we kept it at 65/66 & it was perfect. I brougt wood, but am leaving it for the next guest. As, check in is not until 4pm and we arrived at 4:30 almost dark, a better exterior lighting would have been appreciated. Your flashlights all need batteries. Otherwise, we really enjoyed our stay hre. This was a Christmas present to my mom, who used to live here in Idyllwild.w

Cozy family cabin next to trails
Loved the books for the kids, so thoughtful! Perfect for our family of 4, with everything we needed in the kitchen. Wonderful location along hillside trail leading to the perimeter trail, the nature center, and a river. The secret tree swing was a super bonus.

Idyllwild Cabin
We loved the rustic mountain look and feel of the cabin, the beds and furniture were very nice, and the kitchen was well stocked with amenities. No air conditioning, so in hot weather the cabin gets extremely warn and the fans provided are ineffective. We would like to try to stay there in cooler weather.

Great location
House is located within a neighborhood but being on the property felt like being out in the woods with no neighbors--a great relaxing spot, very quiet. Yet, it was close enough to the Idyllwild shops and restaurants.

A peaceful retreat!
We enjoyed our stay so much at this lovely cabin: it was perfectly appointed with everything we needed! A fully stocked kitchen, tons of extra blankets and pillows, comfy beds and an excellent heating system for chilly nights. The deck was nestled in the trees and was so peaceful. We will definitely be coming back.
