Hip, Secluded 2BR/2BA Cabin Unmatched Panoramic Views and Charm Among the Pines

Permit #RVC-2240

Welcome to Mountain View Treehouse, a light-filled 2BR/2BA cabin perched in the treetops of Pine Cove, just 3 miles from Idyllwild town center. Offering total privacy—your nearest neighbors are 1,000 feet away—this isn’t your grandmother’s cabin! It’s a newly remodeled retreat that blends rustic mountain charm with modern luxury.

The Home

Soaring vaulted ceilings, wood beams, clerestory windows, and a beautiful rock fireplace create a cozy yet stylish mountain vibe. Large windows frame unmatched panoramic views, while three separate decks invite you to relax, birdwatch, or sip morning coffee surrounded by nature.

The home sits on over half an acre of explorable land with a private knoll, picnic spots, and a brand-new grill for outdoor dining. Despite the privacy, you’re just a 5-minute drive to town and a short walk to Pine Cove Market for wine, beer, and essentials.

Bedrooms & Baths

Master Suite: Spacious with its own sitting area, fireplace, flat-screen Roku TV, evaporative cooler, and a private deck with breathtaking views.

Second Bedroom: Comfortable and inviting, ideal for family or friends.
The cabin includes 1.5 newly remodeled bathrooms stocked with fluffy towels, shampoo, conditioner, and body wash.

Comfort & Amenities

Stay cool with a brand-new AC unit upstairs, or cozy up by the fireplace on chilly nights. Ultra-high-speed internet (400 Mbps) makes remote work or streaming easy, and both TVs are equipped with Roku plus a Blu-ray player with a DVD library.

The fully remodeled kitchen features stainless appliances, a Bosch dishwasher, and all the tools you’ll need to prepare a gourmet meal. Coffee maker, blender, and toaster included.

Why Guests Love It

Secluded setting with sweeping mountain views

Stylish, newly remodeled interiors with modern comforts

Three decks + half an acre of private land

Close to hiking, nature, and Idyllwild town center

Whether you’re planning a romantic getaway, a family trip, or simply need a private mountain escape, Mountain View Treehouse is the perfect Idyllwild retreat.
The cabin is air-conditioned and features a kitchen, 1.5 bathrooms, and a balcony, and there's space to spread out with 2 bedrooms. Guests can expect to find free WiFi and a Smart TV with a DVD player. Other standard amenities include a washing machine, a fireplace, and a coffee maker.

The host, Mark, was amazing to work with and patiently answered my many questions. The cabin was perfectly cleaned and supplied with everything we could have possibly needed. It was so convenient to the town of Idyllwild and the little shops and restaurants located there. What stood out most, were the incredible views and the peaceful surroundings. Watching the snow fall was awesome! We can’t wait to go back. Thank you, Mark!

Our three-night stay at the mountain cabin was fantastic! The cabin is cozy, well-equipped, and perfectly located with stunning views of the mountains and surrounding trees. The back deck was the highlight, offering a peaceful spot to enjoy the fresh air and feed the friendly birds and enjoy wildlife. It felt like a private retreat, with everything we needed to relax and unwind. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a cozy, nature-filled getaway!

Wonderful stay, perfectly appointed- nothing lacking. Views incredible. Bed comfortable ( only used 1 bedroom. Parking is a bit tricky if you have large vehicle. And the two story staircase is steep with shallow steps. However, if you’re capable navigating those issue - it is a peaceful & very satisfactory destination!

Spectacular view

The view alone made the trip worth it. We had all of our meals on the deck. The best part was to be able to enjoy the nature without having to give up any of the material comforts like a good kitchen, soft beds and good restrooms. The only suggestion from my end would be bring your own coffee pods because we couldn’t find the coffee carafe for the filter coffee and no pods for the Keurig. Which was fine for me because I am a tea person myself.
