My husband and I really enjoyed staying at this quiet cabin with views of trees out all the windows. The kitchen is extremely well equipped which was great as we cooked all our meals in. The fireplace was warm and cozy. The cabin was very clean and all the appliances and toilet are new. Couch and bed were comfortable. We would stay here again. 😁

Very comfortable
The property was beautiful. The house was as advertised. The cookware was in good shape and there was plenty of it. The only thing I would change would be if they gave more direction on how to use the heater. The in floor heater went out at one point, mostly probably because we tried to turn it up too high, or the pilot went out. However, our host was able to help us the next day and the rest of our stay was perfect.

Secluded Cabin with all amenities
Cabin was spacious and fireplace was great. Heater worked great, especially with the cold weather outside. You do go through a patch of dirt road and it was hard to get the cars up the hilly ramp to park. Definitely recommend bringing chains roe that section or 4wd. We bought salt to spread on the ice and a shovel to clear some if the ice out. Other than that, ot was a great stay, everything worked great, grilled some meat outside.

Cozy Cabin.
Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was more than happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Half of the road to the cabin was washed out just below the turn off from the main road which was impossible to see when arriving in the dark. The bed was comfortable. The shower nozzle was short but there was decent water pressure. There was no soap in the shower. Also no tissues anywhere we could find. Once the heater was turned on, the cabin was warm in the bedroom and bathroom. The firepllace doesn’t work. Vrbo gives you no advance notice that the rental management company for this cabin has a very unreasonable, one-sided, 9 page rental agreement that has to be signed after you’ve already committed and paid VRBO for use of the cabin. VRBO should make renters aware of this additional document prior to the commitment to rent, especially if you are committing after the cancellation date. Vrbo will not return your payment if you don’t want to sign the document with the rental management company (because of all the liability you’re signing up for). I called Vrbo about this. Customer service reps there were sympathetic but unwilling to return our payment. We signed the document to get the key. We were only there for a weekend wedding and didn’t spend much time there. We didn’t use the kitchen. Fortunately, nothing went wrong. Had we read this particular rental agreement before committing to Vrbo we would have stayed in a hotel. This rental management company controls a lot of properties in Idyllwild. The management employee who checked us in was very nice and efficient.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: My son loved climbing to the loft. I enjoyed the location with a forest for a backyard. I think there is a deer trail that runs through it, two walked through the day we left. The carpet and some details were a bit dated, but that’s about the only thing I could say about the place. Loved having a wood burning fireplace.

It was very clean with exception of the loft which needed a little TLC to get rid of spiders and webs, but other than that it was tidy and clean. Location was very hard to find but when we called management they were attentive in helping us find it during after hours. The location was peaceful with large trees around. We enjoy sledding on the property too. Be sure to bring your our sleds.

2 wonderful nights at a wonderful “Cozy Cabin”
Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: My family decided on a peaceful weekend away in Idyllwild and I’m so grateful we did! It all begins when we found our Cozy Cabin rental. The property was set in a gorgeous setting in tall beautiful trees, with very rustic scenery which is exactly what my family was looking for. Cozy cabin was easy to find the description of the property was very accurate the layout of the cabin was simple and very functional, it was very clean & well-maintained. Property manager Niki was super sweet at the rental office when I completed signing papers and was given the keys, she assured me that anything I needed, all I needed to do was call anytime a day & anytime at night, nothing is too small to call over. Niki was super sweet and super professional. I would definitely recommend this property to my friends and relatives and plan on staying here again next time I visit Idyllwild California. My family enjoyed a short drive to Lake Hemet where we got on our bicycles and rode around the campsite looking at the beautiful views feeling the sunshine. My family also enjoyed homemade ice cream and delicious dinners lunches and breakfast out in town this Quaint town is very desirable when you’re looking for a peaceful getaway from something you are not used to when you live in a big city like we do. I recommend new spirit vacation rentals because they are so professional their properties are well-maintained and clean and Customer Service was above and beyond especially while corresponding with them through email they were writing me back within minutes. And were super accommodating to answering my questions and Managing our Cozy Cabin stay.

Just exhausting
We were contacted about an hour before we were supposed to leave for our check-in that the original cabin was not ready for us. They put us in a different cabin that was not ready for occupancy. When we arrived at the cabin, it was 50° with only one heater in a downstairs bedroom and space heaters for everywhere else. When you turned on the space heaters it tripped a breaker, and the power went out. This happened several times during our stay, several calls were made, it took hours for people to respond to us. we slept downstairs on the couch without proper linens or bedding just to stay warm. The management team that ran the cabins for the owners were horrible. They really had nothing to help or any proper plan in place for any kind of event like this. Interestingly enough, the owner lived on the site where we were at and she was very helpful. This was not her fault at all. She tried to facilitate everything she could, and even had wood delivered for us, so that we could sleep our second night in warmth. The only thing that the property management offered us was a late check out. I requested to have at least the first night refunded to us, and after many go arounds and several email attempts I was told that I would only be getting the actual rental rate which is about 30% of what we paid for the one night. Again, although the owners were actually very helpful, upset about the situation and were nice The management company was an absolute joke, and did nothing for us , I had to call VRBO just to get a response and even then the owner called me back not the management company. It felt like a waste of time because for the 48 hours we were there we were either cold trying to keep the power on or on the phone there was nothing relaxing about this. I was told I would have an answer from the management company in response to my email within 72 hours, they played a game for two weeks each time stating that my email had gone into a junk folder. The odd thing about that was I was replying to an email that was sent to me from the management company and even called them out on that, so how would or could my email go into a junk folder when it was sent from them directly initially? Not worth the time to go there again and have anything like this happen again as long as that management company is running things.

Beautiful property and very clean and comfortable home. We loved the spacious second-floor great room with large windows looking out into the trees and mountains. Both bedrooms open onto the large front deck where we enjoyed morning coffee. The jacuzzi tub was wonderful after some long days and we were very pleased with the good quality cooking ware and well-stocked kitchen. Definitely hope to come back again.
