A crazy winter storm showed up unexpectedly. I was so worried, but Jeff and Barb were so helpful. They shoveled us out, helped us drive onto the property. Always available to chat and checking in on us. It was wonderful having so much support. The property was beautiful! With the snow it was even more majestic. We arrived and the location was clean and tidy. We even got some beautiful welcome gifts.

Had a wonderful stay again at the Little Cabin. Jeff and Barb are the best. The communication with them is fantastic. Barb kept us informed throughout the process leading up to our stay and after. The Little Cabin is such a nice place to stay. It's quiet and relaxing just sitting outside enjoying nature. Great place to get away from it all.

This was our second time staying here and we will be back again. We love the giant gated yard for letting our dog roam around and chase squirrels. The location is perfect for getting into town or off to great trails. The space itself is very comfortable for us as well.

This was our fourth stay at the Little Cabin. As a couple with dogs, it is the perfect getaway for us. The Little Cabin has all the amenities we could need and a large fenced area for the dogs to play. It’s proximity to both hiking trails, neighborhood walks and downtown Idyllwild is ideal.

Thank you so much for an amazing stay at your cabin. It was cozy, clean and they outdid themselves on the attention to detail. They also left the most thoughtful gift of coffee mugs. Such a great touch! They were very responsive with any questions we had. We can’t wait until our next stay at The Little Cabin!

I had such a wonderful stay at The Little Cabin! I really appreciated how welcoming and attentive Jeff and Barb were. They’re truly Superhosts — they checked in before my arrival and made sure I had all the details I needed for an easy, stress-free check-in. The cabin was spotless, cozy, and had everything I could possibly need. Jeff and Barb even invited me to pick apples from their trees and left a thoughtful welcome gift. The location is peaceful and beautiful, yet still close enough to everything I wanted to explore. There’s plenty of space if you’re traveling with dogs, but it was also perfect for a solo retreat. I felt safe, comfortable, and completely relaxed. I’ll definitely be back!

Perfect for the 2 of us and our pet Chihuahua. If you like lots of trees, birds, and squirrels with high bushy tails, this is the place to stay. Very close to downtown Idyllwild and also close to Taquitz Peak and Humber Park. Take a stroll on Ernie Maxwell Trail if you want an easy hike. We went halfway from the north end in one day and halfway from the south end on another day. We drank coffee from our Little Cabin coffee mugs every morning...nice gifts to take home!
