Bluebird Cottage Inn

10/10 Excellent

"This cottage had all we needed for your weekend. If you’re looking for a place with comfy beds, quiet atmosphere, and friendly and helpful staff this is the place to be. There’s no pools or hot tubs or smart tvs but guess what? We didn’t need any of that. They have a little dvd rental area which we used while staying there and we loved that."

Pet friendly cabin-Fully fenced yard! Pets stay free!

10/10 Excellent

"Nice, excellent if you have pets."

Secluded 1 acre Mountain Home - Hot Tub, 3 Decks & Direct National Forest Access

10/10 Excellent

"We had a wonderful family week-end in this beautifully decorated, super well equipped and very comfortable house !Plenty of space to accommodate the 6 of us with common areas to share time together (with a lot of board games available) and enough separate spaces to respect each other privacy. The kitchen has all you need to cook any kind of food, the bathrooms are super clean, the beds are all comfortable, the spa is spacious and the decks very well furnished. The outdoor offers plenty of space for any activities and a direct access to the trails !The description on Vrbo is accurate and communication with the hosts was smooth.Lots of fond memories were made there, we will be back soon !"

3-Bedrooms in Idyllwild - AC, Jacuzzi, Sauna, Fitness-Game Room, Epic Views

8/10 Good

"Idyllwild is a glorious place! Our multigenerational family enjoyed our stay over a long weekend. Our family enjoyed the unique experience of sitting in the sauna--nice. The sunset from the deck as we ate dinner, was absolutely amazing! Thank you,"

Tiny Mountain Cabin under the pines. Close to town. Dogs ok.

10/10 Excellent

"Amazing weekend! The cabin is very cute! The host is very responsive and kind. We would absolutely stay there again!"

Mountain Cabin - Old Idyllwild Charm! Dog friendly. Minutes from the village.

10/10 Excellent

"Host was super responsive with questions. The property itself was adorable. We loved the vintage feel to the cabin. The decks were nice and it was nice that it was pet friendly! It was clean, cute and close to town. We had a very nice time and I would highly recommend for pet owners to stay here."

Cozy Idyllwild cabin near San Jacinto Mountains

10/10 Excellent

"We loved the space. We have a special diet so a working kitchen was a must and this rental delivered. Cabin was comfortable with AC in August. We are glad we booked it for our next trip too!"

Charming dog-friendly home with covered deck, W/D, & mountain view

8/10 Good

"We loved our stay in this cabin! It was perfect for our group of four adults. It was a great space to relax, work a puzzle, and play games. We enjoyed the outside patio and the nice breeze. We prepared several meals at home, and the kitchen was adequately equipped. There are also some great hiking trails nearby. We were there during a hot week with the highs in the 90s. I was concerned that we would be really uncomfortable and disappointed that there was no AC. But by opening up the house when it had cooled down every night, using the fans for airflow, and leaving it open until the morning, we were able to keep it cool enough.As others have stated, the driveway is steep. One of our low sitting cars scraped a little when pulling in or out of the driveway. There was a small issue with refrigerator leaking onto the floor. It didn’t seem to affect the performance fridge or freezer, although they were on the older side and had no water or ice dispenser. Customer service responded appropriately, and hopefully it is resolved now.I think it should also be noted that the entrance to the loft area is through the door of the master bedroom. So just beware of that if you’re planning to use that area as a sleeping area. We had an EV and a hybrid which we needed to charge. Using a long extension cord from the porch area down to the driveway, we were able to charge one vehicle at a time. We would stay here again, given the opportunity, especially in more moderate weather."
