Idyllcreek A-Frame Vacation Cabin - Walk to Town! Call or Text with questions, Owner managed, quick response.Idyllcreek is Secluded on an acre at the end of Boulder Drive Idyllcreek -A-Frame Vacation Cabin is a short walk to town. A seasonal stream runs through the property. We invite you to share our family's special retreat.This original 1960's A-frame cabin is every bit as charming and serene as it looks. With 1250 square feet, Idyllcreek sleeps 4-6 people (1 King bed, 1 queen bed, and 1 inflatable areo bed). Inside the cabin, you'll love the wood burning fireplace, fun spiral staircase, and wireless internet (because even a rustic getaway should be convenient). Idyllcreek also features 1.5 baths, and has 2 patios so you can enjoy this beautiful wooded backdrop to the fullest. Idyllcreek gets is name from Idyllwild, California, which is just a short walk from the cabin, as well as the seasonal stream that runs on the property. Walk or drive into town and you'll find that Idyllwild is rich in small-town atmosphere and has something for everyone. Downtown Idyllwild offers excellent dining of all stripes and an assortment of fine shops, boutiques, and galleries—not to mentioning a thriving arts community full of music festivals, art shows, and movie theatre. If your ideal getaway involves unplugging and getting out into the fresh mountain air, just head “up the hill.” There are plenty of opportunities for activities like hiking and camping, rock climbing and mountain biking, all within close distance of Idyllcreek cabin. And vacation is, above all else, time to relax. Idyllcreek isn't just a charming Idyllwild rental cabin on a picturesque, secluded, woodsy lot—it's also a good 20-30 degrees cooler than the surrounding valleys during summer! Imagine sipping your morning coffee on the patio before you head out seeking fun activities and events. With daylight fading through the trees, enjoy good conversation, tired from a full day of hiking and browsing an art fair. Then settle into this quiet, peaceful cabin for a full night of deep sleep. With such a great combination of nature's beauty and peaceful seclusion, plus great outdoor activities and charming small-town discoveries and events, it's no surprise that Idyllcreek is a favorite of so many, some from California and some from across the country. Idyllwild, California, vacation rentals give families, couples, and friends the chance to get away, relax, and spend some great time together. And Idyllcreek is one of the best. So if you're ready to head down to the shaded A-frame cabin at the end of Boulder Drive for a day, weekend, or week of peace, Idyllcreek is ready to welcome you.Idyllcreek a-Frame - Walk to Town, Wifi, Secluded!

Response from the owner Hi Chuck, I want to start by sincerely thanking you for your honest feedback and let you know that your words have not gone unheard. We are owner-managed, family-run operation and we took your feedback straight to the heart. Joey and Erin just spent a good week giving our beloved Idyllcreek some TLC so I wanted to share the updates with you. After reading about your thoughts with our AC units, we have installed central, forced-air AC. The noisy AC floor units are gone and our new system is quiet as quiet can be. Being that you came on a busy holiday weekend, Fourth of July, we hope that the noisy neighbors was a one-off thing as we have not heard any complaints since. As for your feedback on the creaky floors, Idyllcreek was built in the 1960's so a little creak in the floors is just part of it's charm. I hope you were still able enjoy sleeping in the A-frame loft, despite the creaky floors and your height. We also hope your kids enjoyed sleeping in the second bedroom which actually contains a Standard Queen-sized bed. As for the deck, we just refinished it so no need to worry about splinters anymore. We also gave our interior fresh paint, specifically in the kitchen and bathroom. After inspection, we felt all the shelving was in near perfect shape so they remain as is and we gave the doors fresh paint as well. Regarding the outdoor furniture, we do our best to keep the outdoor furniture as clean as we can. Since Idyllcreek is hidden amongst the tall pines, falling sap and pine needles are a on-going battle to keep up with. Lastly, I'm so sorry to hear that your allergies were acting up while in our fresh mountain air. We are a non-smoking home so I assure that we had no chain-smokers in the house for weeks. What more than likely happened is the guests before you did not properly use the fireplace which caused some smoke to come into the house. The best way to avoid this is to make sure the fire is push all the way to the back of the fireplace and keeping a window or two open to ventilate always helps. We also have the chimney cleared throughout the year. We only wished you would have shared the feedback about smoke during your stay as we would have been happy to explain or show you the best way to ventilate the cabin. Thank you again for taking the time to share this review with us. I happy you found us communicative hosts and found your experience in our rustic A-frame unique. We would love to host you at another one of our Idyllwild retreats in the future. - The Halbeisen's
