Jay’s Place was awesome
Staying at Jay’s place was a great experience. It met our needs perfectly, from the comfortable recliner for enjoyable reading to the amazing shower with the smooth pebbled floor that felt like a foot massage. And right down the road to Idyllwild Arts, where we needed to be. We didn’t use the backyard but saw that it is large and fenced. The beds were comfortable and there were options with the queen bed and single bed in the bedroom and a single bed with trundle in the living room. I can’t think of any suggestions for improvement. All was great. Thank you.

Peaceful Triple Threat Getaway!
This long weekend getaway was originally for myself, my husband, and our wee little pup. It was our puppy’s first birthday and our wedding anniversary. Sadly, the weekend before we had to send our cat to the other side and so our adult child flew in to say goodbye and grieve with us. We alerted Jay and Darlene of our last minute extra guest which they were kind enough to allow along. This cabin is a dream! I feel we are so lucky to have found it. Plenty of quiet and space for the 3 of us adults and our dog (his crate, his food, his toys, lol!) Plus now my kid was with us for Mother’s Day. Very special. We loved hanging out in the deck and the yard and everything we needed to cook was there too. Plus a washer and dryer. Woohoo! It was easy to use the heaters and the shower water pressure was perfect. Highly recommend. Thanks again for a wonderful time!

Very Pet Friendly
The cabin is one of the biggest I've rented in Idyllwild. It has a lot of space and a very nice living room. The enclosed backyard was great for my dog I could just let her out back so she could watch for squirrels. The back patio was good to relax on and enjoy the afternoon sun. The heaters worked just fine as did the WiFi. This cabin has a very good VRBO rating and it's well deserved.

Exactly what I needed
I needed a quick get out of Palm Springs break and it was everything I needed. Rustic, basic, quiet, mountains, peaceful And after being a recent relocator from Vail Colorado, it even snowed a little bit and the dogs loved it. Like I said, it was exactly what I needed to clear my head.

Awesome Relaxation!
Thank you for the great hospitality. I have to say, this is the best stay I had so far from all the places we stayed at, and will be coming back. My pups loved it. The cabin was decorated in very positive a cozy fashion that gave everyone great vibes. Very clean and very spacious. The back yard for the pups is huge. Although, they did not venture too far as they were a bit shy. All the shopping and restaurants near by was a great convenience, with the most awesome sunsets, where the sun just hides itself over the mountain, while you sip on some tasty wine from the local winery. Overall, it was just what we needed. I hope others can appreciate this stay. Sincerely, Melanie, Efren, Dillon, and Pups (Pluto and Felix)

Little slice of heaven
We loved our stay here! Cabin was clean, had everything we needed for a weekend away from the city. We loved the gas fireplace but there is also a wood fire place in the kitchen (we didn’t get around to using it). Backyard was big and spacious but we didn’t use it much bc it was covered in snow during our trip. Thanks for a great stay jay!!

We had a great stay! We didn’t want to leave and will be looking to return soon. The cabin had plenty of comfortable places to sit, which is becoming increasingly rare in VRBOs for some reason, and equally good options for a comfortable night’s sleep. The kitchen was well stocked with necessities for cooking for a weekend away. The only thing we lacked was a blender for morning smoothies but we managed to come up with quieter things to eat just fine. We were warm in the cool temperatures and as I have trouble with asthma, it was nice not to have to burn wood for warmth- there are two electrical fireplaces that kept us warm. There is a charming wood burning fireplace in the kitchen though. I was tempted because it’s been a long time since I’ve had a fire burning in the kitchen. The other benefit was that the inside of the house did not smell of smoke, again for my asthma issue. Parking was easy and even though the house is close to the street, we didn’t hear any noise or neighbors for that matter. The house is like 3 minutes from downtown. Big fenced back yard too. We enjoyed having a washer and dryer handy to toss wet towels in to dry. Everything was easy from check in, the tvs, the heat instructions. All and all, we couldn’t have been happier. Thank you!

We loved it!
We had such a lovely stay. The house and property are so cozy, the bed is really comfortable and the backyard is very spacious which our pup loved! He sniffed every inch! Our only comment is the internet was incredibly slow so don’t expect to be able to watch much tv reliably or surf the internet quickly- but that’s also not why you go to Idyllwild! So it wasn’t a huge issue. We’d recommend the property in a heartbeat!
