Fun Mountain Home

Fun property for a guys getaway. Fully appointed open kitchen that gives way to a nice living room with fireplace. Had fun with the pool table. Each room has a queen bed. Third bed is a downgrade for that person because loft is difficult to get in and out of. Hottub is nice and where property is located is ideal. I would stay here again!

Quiet Cabin Getaway

Great Cabin fairly close to the center of town. Kitchen had everythig we needed, the extra board games, pool table and game table left plenty to do even if we stayed in. Host was very responsive and accomodating. Yard was great for the dogs to run around in.

Nice getaway for up to 6

We enjoyed this home as a group of 6 active adults. Overall kitchen was well stocked (but needed some silicone spatulas and hot mits), beds were comfortable. Loft is up a wall ladder. Futon was very comfortable, exposed outside the upstairs bedroom. Loved the game room area and hot tub in the cold at night. Stairs to/from are steep and upper drive was inaccessible due to snow drifts from previous plowing, but that isn't much less steep, and slippery. Main outdoor stairs and decking are going to need some repairs this summer... Parking below is on the street (one parking spot for the home). Will tow if need to plow for snow.

Great Host/Great Property

Incredibly comfortable house not far from the village. We spent the Thanksgiving holiday here and the kitchen was well stocked for cooking. Fantastic play room with a pool table that my 15 year old son loved. The host made the trip for us. He was highly communicative and offered us an early check in, which we greatly appreciated. I made a mistake on the initial booking and the host was really understanding and helpful in getting the booking corrected. Five star across the board.

Relaxing Weekend

We needed a place to unwind and feel relaxed and this property offered just what we needed for the extended weekend. Hot tub was perfect and a warm fire for the nights. Quiet and secluded area that was super close to town so we felt like we could really enjoy all the best of both worlds. Owner made great recommendation with Idyllwild Pizza Co. Thanks for a great refueling weekend.

Overall nice place with all necessities available

John’s place was overall a nice place to stay. There was plenty of space for the 4 of us with a nice dining and living area. The game room upstairs was a nice touch. The only thing was that the ac was not very good. We went during a heatwave which I know is pretty rare especially that affects the mountain area. We were not given the pin to control the ac to bring the temp down to a more comfortable range. We weren’t able to sleep in the upstairs room or den bed because of the heat. The place was also somewhat dusty with some cobwebs here and there. However we did have a nice time and the bottle of wine was a nice gesture.

Great place to stay in Idyllwild

3 couples stayed at John’s home & it was perfect for our group. The only issue we had was the loft area. We did not know it was a ladder that leads up to the loft. We ended up using the futon that’s on the 2nd floor. Pool table, jacuzzi & popcorn machine were definitely utilized! Had a great time!!

Roomy, fun but rustic

Chose this property for its closeness to town and trails AS WELL AS it’s jacuzzi. Upon arriving, was happy to see it was fully stocked with pots/pans/coffee maker, etc. Great TV and WI-FI. Large space for a big group and the game room was FUN!! Decor, condition of the house, and deep cleaning are underwhelming. Was disappointed that there was no hot water. Messaged the owner but didn’t get response. However, I did not call him as we had a busy weekend. We enjoyed our time there, however, for the cost, I would not return to this home.

A lovely trip with everything we needed

John’s home is extremely cozy and warm, with a great kitchen, and all the amenities you could imagine. The hot tub is great, the fireplace wonderful, the game room with so many games! We had a small group of friends go up for New Years and we were all able to relax, cook, and veg out on the couch. Close to town and a sledding area. The avocado green bathroom fixtures and the bathtub were my favorite! Will definitely book again!

Beautiful house and total seclusion

This was our second stay at this property. The place is awesome! Big house, looks even bigger in person. Very modern, great fireplace and kitchen. Really close to Deer springs which has great hikes. Endless fun to be had in the rental from games to pool table. The best part personally is the seclusion. The back yard is totally private and you feel alone with the starts while soaking in the hot tub. I would definitely stay here again. The owner John is great and very responsive. Good times!

Great mountain escape

My family and I had a great time in Idyllwild and this cabin. The kids loved climbing and exploring the fenced back yard as well as the dogs. Everything we needed was there at the cabin and the family can’t wait to go back. Hiking trails and nature center were literally a minute drive away. Pool table, dart board, card table and the spa were great and we had fun using all of them including some of the board games. John was very responsive and easy to get a hold of, we hope to go back soon.

Cozy and comfy

Went out to Idyllwild for the first time to climb with the family. Picked the spot for a multitude of reasons: number of beds, pet friendly vibes, location, HOT TUB (great after a long hike/rock climbing session) & open space. The home is super amazing. Everything looks well kept and it feels inviting upon entering. My dog felt at home and didn’t want to leave. The area feels safe and is super close to everything: trailheads, town, and mountains!!!! We drove in at night and didn’t find it difficult to find. Just be pack in a way to make trips easy to and from car to the entrance. Owner responded quickly to questions and inquiries making it super helpful. Made sure was easy and accommodating as possible. We appreciate the stay and will keep the listing always in mind for the next adventure.

Eagle’s Rest Earns Its Name!!!

This is a FANTASTIC property! Reading thru some of the past reviews that had criticisms, I think those folks should skip VRBO and stick with the Four Seasons because their expectations need some calibration. We found the place to be clean, convenient located, with great amenities. Yes, there are some stairs from parking to the front door, but these are very manageable and well worth the trade-off for seclusion. Our dogs loved the place as well, given they could roam the largely fenced-in back yard. If you are looking for a place to relax and unplug in comfort, this is the spot for you!

Great winter get-away

We had a wonderful time here. Location is great, it's a short walk to Deer Springs trailhead, close to Idyllwild Nature Center, and a short drive to restaurants downtown. Most of the time though we stayed at the cabin, enjoying the pool table, wood fireplace, backyard snow (still lot's on the ground from a previous week), jacuzzi, and general peace and beautiful views.

The photos don't do it justice!

The hosts have thought of everything. The kitchen was fully stocked with spices. A full set of sharpened Henkel knives. Great kitchen for easy cooking. 2 couples, we stayed for 3 nights. It snowed 10" one night, but the road was plowed constantly, and always driveable. Beautiful views from all windows. Heat works perfectly. Nice pool table - a lot of fun. A large, real fireplace that holds a beautiful fire. Comfortable couches and furniture - a real plus. John was immediately available, by phone and by text, to answer any questions. Well lit; well laid out. Plenty of private space for everyone. Everything is totally maintained and up-to-date. We live in L. A., and are looking forward to our return. This home is special in Idyllwild.
