Property Description
Our cabin is the perfect pet-friendly getaway with new central air conditioning. The open A-Frame cabin is tucked away on a quiet street yet is just minutes away from the picturesque shops and restaurants in the center of town. Humber Park trailhead is within walking distance of the cabin providing easy access to the Ernie Maxwell and Devils Slide trails. Strawberry Creek runs through the back yard creating a peaceful atmosphere and a lovely sensory experience when the creek is running.
The space
Inside you will find high ceilings and windows that show off the beautiful scenery and create plenty of light. The downstairs features open architecture that A-frame cabins are known for and include a gas stove, chef’s kitchen, and wine fridge for making unforgettable meals. Our favorite spot in the cabin is a cozy reading nook that sits next to the wood-burning fireplace and looks out onto the creek. You’ll often see deer outside sipping from the creek or running through the snow.
The Outside offers a spacious fenced-in deck off the kitchen with a natural gas Weber BBQ, and a large table for entertaining and enjoying alfresco dining. The deck is the perfect spot to enjoy the scenery and the quiet of the surrounding woods with views of both the creek and the mountains in the distance.

Great location
Within a half mile of Ernie Maxwell and Devil's Slide trails so you can walk to the trailhead or use the house Parking Pass. Beautiful, moderate hikes. House has large windows that fill the A-frame roofline with gorgeous tree views. Open floor plan with long dining table, couch, chairs, kitchen island and slider to deck all in one big space was perfect for our group of 5.

Great cabin and location
This is the second time I’ve rented this cabin. It’s very comfortable and in a great location. Lots of deer sightings out the living room windows. We’ll definitely be back.

What a great view!
We loved staying here. The view was amazing! The windows in the living room gave you front row seats to watching the deer go up and down the creek. The cabin was beautiful and spacious! It was also so close to the town. I would highly recommend this cabin to anyone looking for a cabin in Idyllwild.

Lovely cabin
We spent Thanksgiving weekend with our three adult kids at the Strawberry Creek Retreat and loved it! The kitchen was well equipped, allowing us to make a Thanksgiving meal. The open living room/dining room was a wonderfully comfortable place to hang out. Two private bedrooms and the loft each have their own bathrooms, which worked out perfectly for all of us. Parking was easy, and it's a very short drive into town. Communication with our hosts was smooth, and they were responsive. Excellent cabin and owners, I highly recommend it!

Not a premium property
I regret to say that this wasn't the premium property expected, especially based on the pictures. While Alex was quick to respond to our inquiries and booking, the high cost of the property didn't seem justified. Additionally, the recommended insurance added to the expenses was unreasonable. We were also surprised by the substantial cleaning fee, especially since we noticed several areas that needed attention. The checkout instructions were also disappointing. It felt unnecessary to pay a cleaning fee and still be required to do the cleaning ourselves before leaving. This included us having to ***** the beds and loading the wash with the towels and bed linen. Also, there were some missing essentials like Ziploc bags, aluminum foil, napkins, salt, pepper, and extra towels in the cabinets and such. This lack of attention to detail was frustrating.
Although Alex mentioned letting him know if anything was missing for future guests, we couldn't help but feel overlooked. The beds were not very comfortable and they felt like hammocks with no support, so we had to sleep on the couch. When we informed Alex his reply was, "we've never had a complaint before."
The cleanliness of the property was also not up to our standards (see pics), which was the most disappointing aspect of our stay. The location was great as well as the view.
