About this House

Turnkey private cabin in the woods! This upgraded 2 bedroom/2.25 bath furnished home is not to be missed. The property sale includes the vacant lot next door, for a total of .26 acres. The home has 3 decks -- out front with a propane table sitting area and a separate dining table with umbrella, a deck off the living with amazing views and outdoor furniture and umbrellas for entertaining (as well as a storage shed), and a private lower deck off the primary bedroom suite. The flat entrance from the ample flat parking area on a semi-circle driveway takes you into the bright and airy living room with vaulted ceiling, a wood burning stove, beautiful wood paneling, and is open to the kitchen. With windows all around, you'll experience the beautiful forest wherever you look. The main floor also includes a .25 bathroom for convenience, and a ladder hatch to reach the cute little open loft space above the kitchen. Downstairs you will find the primary and guest bedrooms (both with queen beds), as well as a third bonus/office room with a double bed futon and shelving. The large primary bedroom has its own fireplace and private deck, and includes a full en suite bath with spa tub. There is also a separate .75 guest bath with a shower off the guest bedroom, as well as the laundry area with washer and dryer. The home, which has a newer roof, comes fully furnished, including a sofa bed in the living room. Located in Pine Cove on a dirt road, you're just 3 miles from downtown Idyllwild . . . while also owning your own quiet and secluded piece of heaven in the mountains.

    "There are many dog-friendly people in the neighborhood, and there are great trails and hiking areas where leashed dogs are welcome; however not all dogs in idyllwild are socialized, and there are not many enclosed public spaces where dogs can safely play together off-leash."

  • Cedarnpinelodge
    "It’s a very small village of About 1,800 full time residents. It’s a resort mountain town with no skiing. It’s known for rock climbing & hiking. Perched above the low desert of Palm Desert people escape here from the high heat there. No fast food and Mom and pop shops. Dogs as Mayors for the village. It’s like living back when everyone knew your name, kids could ride their bikes, and they were safe. It’s a secret, not many people even know we are up here. So shhh we like it that way! It’s Magical!"
  • Michael W.
    "Great place to get away to. Quiet, cozy, well maintained and easy to keep that way."
