What a wonderful place! My best friend and I had a girls' weekend away and we could not have been more pleased with this lovely cabin. It's cozy, comfortable and very well appointed. We did not lack for anything.Larry is a considerate and thoughtful host. Special shout out for the new sponge in the kitchen! My always pet peeve is a sponge that you don't know where it's been. I usually bring my own, but forgot it this time. What a great surprise to find that! I would add another star just for the new sponge.You will love this place-a perfect 10!

Quiet Getaway

This is a great spot for nature lovers. I enjoyed watching deer in the morning and watching the squirrels, chipmunks, and birds from the deck. It’s a beautiful place to recharge and enjoy the slower pace of Idyllwild. The property feels very private but it’s also close to everything.

Quiet and Private Location

We loved the secluded feeling of the location of the cabin. It was a short few minute drive to restaurants and hiking trails. The spacious deck was a nice relaxing bonus. The cabin had an updated kitchen and everything we needed. The only negative was the inefficiency and noise of the wall heater downstairs on two chilly days. The upstairs was always much warmer even when no heaters were on anywhere. The bathroom heater was also nice to have. We would certainly stay here again and highly recommend it.

Wonderful Retreat and Location

My wife and I stayed here to celebrate our 43rd wedding anniversary, and we were not disappointed. This lovely, warm, and welcoming cabin was everything we hoped for. The beautiful outdoor deck quickly became our favorite spot—perfect for greeting the morning, sharing quiet moments, enjoying meaningful conversations, and grilling some great BBQ.From the deck, we also enjoyed watching squirrels, chipmunks, and birds frolic around. The birds gathered at a well-stocked feeder, while the squirrels kept us entertained with their playful energy. It was peaceful, charming, and added so much to the experience.The cabin itself was cozy, comfortable, and had everything we needed for a relaxing stay. Communication from the owners was excellent, and we truly appreciated the thoughtful care they extended to us as welcomed guests.We highly recommend this special place and are already looking forward to returning!

We can’t express how much we enjoyed our stay at Boulder Creek! We had our annualMarch Madness getaway and it exceeded our expectations. The beautiful cabin was so comfortable and cozy. The wildlife of birds, chipmunks, and squirrels that entertained us was heartwarming. The swing and deck provided perfect places to relax! It also felt very private. A very special place. We will definitely be back!

Wonderful

Exactly what I was hoping for, and even better in several ways. House is welcoming, spacious for our family of 4, and cozy. Quiet at the end of a cul de sac backing the forest. Terrace is very pleasant with plenty of birds, squirrels and chipmunks visiting. Owner is very responsive. An adventure pass is provided (required to park at trailheads). All appliances work well, there are plenty of pots, pans and utensils for cooking, as well as coffee and filters. We loved the fireplace (high quality firewood is provided), reclining armchairs, heated blankets, board games, and all the nice touches around the house. That was our first time in Idyllwild and we'd probably try to rent the same place if we return!
