This our 2nd time staying here. Been visiting Idyllwild for many years. Nice quiet deck, large yard that our dogs love. Everything you need in the cabin if you like to cook like myself. And the bbq on the deck that we used nightly. We will be long term visitors, thank you so much Melissa for all you do. See you again soon!!

Just GO there!!!
I didn’t even know where Idyllwild was. I took a leap of faith on a sabbatical, trying to escape the hot Texas weather and ended up here at Melissa‘s house. The road leading to the home is one of the most gorgeous I have ever driven. The surroundings are absolutely incredible and majestic. You can physically see the elevation change with the foliage and it is spectacular. I traveled with my two dogs and of importance to me was having a safe, large, secure yard, and this place was absolutely perfection for that. The house is as it is listed, but honestly, was better than I expected. Melissa has thought of every single thing you will need from top to bottom left to right. You will be in want of nothing. She is incredibly gracious, and very communicative and helpful. I felt so peaceful at this place. The nights were silent, the trees were magnificent, my dogs loved the house, I felt so at home. The town was incredibly sweet with lots to do. Lots of shopping, a movie, theater, grocery stores, gas stations, and incredibly nice people. I want to trade my Vrbo with hers in the future! Hoping she’ll take me up on it! Oh, if there’s any reason at all, you are questioning this house, or this place, don’t do it. Just go!

Loved this home for a stay in Idyllwild!
The communication with the Manager, Melissa, was awesome. Very friendly and responsive. Really appreciate that. And the details . . . everything we needed to know and more about the home, checking in, checking out, etc. was stated in emails and in a binder in the home that made staying here so easy. The home itself was perfect for us and our dog. Very cozy and with so many homey touches that truly made it feel like we were at home. There were lots thoughtful touches included and it was fully stocked with everything we could possibly need. Our dog loved the huge yard to roam around and it was just a mile from the center of the village, enabling us to walk or drive in minutes. Thank you for making our stay in Idyllwild fun and comfortable!

Relaxing
The Little Cabin was adorable. My husband and our puppy stayed at the cabin. The cabin was a perfect size and well stocked if you needed anything. The property was perfect. The patio had a little firepit that made the evenings cozy. Our host Melissa was AMAZING. I higly recommend this property. We will be back and be staying at another property Melissa manages.

Little cabin was beautiful! My 3 dogs enjoyed the back yard and loved laying in the sun on the big front deck! We had perfect weather so we were able to eat our meals outside on the front deck! Had lots of squirrel & steller jay visitors. Can’t wait to come back!

Good location
Nice small home, lots of supplies and fully stocked kitchen. Convenient to town, 5 mins to anywhere. To be honest, we were not brave enough to use the loft since we both get up several times in the night, and the outside/extra room would also not have worked for the same reason-no bathroom-so whoever stayed out there would have to come through the master bedroom or go through the process of unlocking the front door just to get to the bathroom. But we were ok all together on the queen bed. We enjoyed our stay. Thank you.

Spring break vaca
Great place. Great communication as I can be annoying with lots of questions but they were very accommodating. Only concern was I didn’t consider the stairs was difficult even though it was just one small set. Would love to return but may need a ramp or assistance lifting multiple bags but we had a lovely stay. It was a great location -a lil walk to town and cute place. We enjoyed the yard the most with sledding n space to run around, even the Easter bunny stopped by for a bit with just toys no snacks. Even though there was snow it was still warm enough to hang out outside.

Cool little house with huge yard
Me and my wife and three dogs really enjoyed this property. The interior design was very unique and comfortable. Dogs loved the big yard. As we are not spring chickens, the ladder to the loft was a little challenging but we made it work. All in all, we would stay here again if we were to come to Idyllwild on another getaway.

I could not have asked for a better place to stay with my dog. Easy check in process. Beautiful property. Quiet. I was able to not only have my dog off leash on the front porch and back yard, but was also able to walk around the neighborhood with him. Easy to get into Idyllwild as well. Easy to communicate with the hosts! Everything was well maintained.

Serene Cabin w/Super Dog Backyard
Rented another place from Melissa previously, a definite plus, the location is excellent especially if you want a very quiet, peaceful and relaxing visit to Idyllwild. You don't have to worry about traffic walking your dog anytime of the day in that part of town. Our 20 month old puppy just loved zooming around in the backyard and we could put her out there without a worry. The WiFi worked just fine.

Private and Peaceful
We we booked this home for a last minute anniversary getaway with our little dog. It was perfect! It is a lovely property, feels very removed and private but is so close to town. The home is beautiful and comfortable. We spent a lot to time out on the deck and in the very spacious back yard. Our little dog had the best time running around in the fully fenced yard. Overall just a wonderful peaceful place.
