Description

Not another cabin in sight. Shrouded by towering pines, scented cedars, the winding drive leads to this captivating, almost century old, caringly restore habitat. The meandering stacked rock retaining walls lead to the red brick and gray granite steps and walkway. The owner, an artisan of wood and masonry, has spent the last 25 years crafting this enchanting abode. The chimney, each stone stacked with an eye for rhythm and composition, houses an older, dependable wood stove for chilly nights. The living area and dining nook meld into one surround by dual pane windows for light and awesome forest views. Two custom bedrooms, a 3/4 bath, provide rest and hygiene. The kitchen is artistically utilitarian. Natural edge, pine planked breakfast bar, granite stone countertops, stainless steel sink, just enough cabinets. This is the getaway to step back in time and restore your soul.
This property is off market, which means it's not currently listed for sale or rent on Trulia. This may be different from what's available on other websites or public sources. This description is from March 25, 2026

    "We are a small mountain community of 3,000. We have Town Hall meetings and talk about problems that the community faces or has. "
  • KK C.
    "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."

    "We are a small town where everyone knows everyone and we all say hi to each other. Not only that we have a dog as mayor "
  • 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."
  • Michael W.
    "Very peaceful area for anyone that likes the mountain areas and appreciates getting away from all the hustle & bustle of the city."
