We had all we needed with the kitchen stuff to cook a meal or two. Across the street was Cafe Aroma, where I had my last meal listening to a crooner. We walked down to the creek and it was lovely. Beds are comfy and air conditioning was just right. Only suggestion is to post your house number on street, as the sign by driveway listed innacurate number. I walked in to look around and saw the sign on cabin to let me know I was in the right place. ##### Martha W. Stayed 3 nights in Jul 2023 Verified ### 8/10 Good #### Laura D.

Just a couple of things: sofa cushions desperately need to be restuffed! And a throw blanket for sofa and coffee set up with coffee and creamers would be great additions. the hot tub was lovely , but it took a loooong time to heat up from 85, the temp it is set to on standby, so turn it up as soon as you arrive if you want an earlyโ€™ish evening hot tub! ##### Laura D.

Itโ€™s an older, quirky cabin. But it is maintained snd kept clean. The owners are very communicative. Cabin has everything you need including coffee grinder and Wilderness passes. Walking distance to downtown. Nice restaurant across the street. And quiet even though youโ€™re right on a main street. ##### Dylan R.

Everything is exactly as listed and it is in a great location. It has a great cabin/lodge/vintage feel while still having the conveniences and comforts of modern life. Itโ€™s an easy walk to town and a perfect place to chill and relax after nearby hiking. ##### Meagan K. Stayed 4 nights in Aug 2022 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Victoria F.

Itโ€™s a vintage cabin with enough modern amenities, like a well stocked kitchen, fluffy towels, and great A/C that you get the cabin experience without the downsides. Itโ€™s close enough to town to drive in within minutes but doesnโ€™t feel like you are crowded. It is a clearly loved cabin and one I appreciate that we had the opportunity to experience. ##### Victoria F. Stayed 2 nights in Jul 2022 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Daniel L.

Great kitchen and bath. The hot tub is clean and the temperature was ready upon arrival, and worked perfectly. Kelly and Erin were nicely responsive. Weโ€™ve wanted to rent this cabin for a while; it finally worked out and was worth the wait. Weโ€™ll definitely try to rent Idyllcottage again! ##### Daniel L.

Besides warming up next to the charming gas fireplace, the space provided rustic charm and all the amenities (and more) that we needed! The kitchen was very well-stocked, beds were comfortable, and the natural lighting was fantastic. We also enjoyed playing in the freshly-fallen snow outside just as much as we enjoyed spending time in the cabin putting jigsaw puzzles and watching tv together. We can't wait to stay there again! ##### Keri C. Stayed 4 nights in Dec 2021 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Jolene V.

This location is across the street from a lovely restaurant and only a 15 minute walk to the center of town. Kelly & Erin (Kelly's daughter) were extremely communicative, sending us a text a few days before our visit and also the morning we checked out. Our pup came with us and loved being able to hangout with us on the deck while we enjoyed the hot tub. The fireplace is connected to the thermostat, so it automatically turns on according to the settings. Very fun feature. Overall, we had a wonderful visit and look forward to checking out this cabin again in the future. ##### Samantha S. Stayed 2 nights in Nov 2021 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Stephanie H. Aug 16, 2021 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### A relaxing getaway This is a great place. I went with my husband, son and our dog. It was the first time we've traveled with our son (15 months) and dog so we were a little worried how they would do in an unfamiliar place. But to say they loved it would be an understatement! The cabin has everything you need and traveling as a new parent, we forgot a few things. Fortunately the cabin was stocked with the essentials (Ziploc bags, measuring cups, dog bowls) and also everyday items you may find you need unexpectedly (a screwdriver for a new toy we had to put together). Also, as we were packing up to leave I noticed that they had a Pack N Play/playpen in the closet. Seriously, they have EVERYTHING. I'm usually a little uncomfortable in vacation rentals but this place was so clean and comfy. We loved it. And the hot tub was the cherry on top. Highly recommended. ##### Stephanie H. ### Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > - [Two Bunch Palms Spa Resort - Adults Only](https://www.expedia.ca/Palm-Springs-Hotels-Two-Bunch-Palms-Spa-Resort-Adults-Only.h1338988.Hotel-Information) > - [Miracle Springs Resort & Spa](https://www.expedia.ca/Palm-Springs-Hotels-Miracle-Springs-Resort-Spa.h22765.Hotel-Information) > - [ The Westin Mission Hills Resort & Villas for COACHELLA 2020 (1st weekend)](https://www.expedia.ca/Palm-Springs-Hotels-Cochella-Stay-At-The-Westin-Mission-Hills-Resort-Villas.h34078793.Hotel-Information) > - [DoubleTree by Hilton Hotel Golf Resort Palm Springs](https://www.expedia.ca/Palm-Springs-Hotels-DoubleTree-By-Hilton-Hotel-Golf-Resort-Palm-Springs.h351.Hotel-Information) > - [Marriott's Desert Springs Villas I](https://www.expedia.ca/Palm-Springs-Hotels-Marriotts-Desert-Springs-Villas-I.h661796.Hotel-Information) > - [Fantasy Springs Resort Casino](https://www.expedia.ca/Palm-Springs-Hotels-Fantasy-Springs-Resort-Casino.h1138282.Hotel-Information) > - [SeaCrest OceanFront Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/San-Luis-Obispo-Hotels-SeaCrest-OceanFront-Hotel.h1365352.Hotel-Information) > - [Azure Palm Hot Springs](https://www.expedia.ca/Palm-Springs-Hotels-Azure-Palm-Hot-Springs.h64615882.Hotel-Information) > - [JW Marriott Desert Springs Resort & Spa](https://www.expedia.ca/Palm-Springs-Hotels-JW-Marriott-Desert-Springs-Resort-Spa.h17123.Hotel-Information) > - [Renaissance Esmeralda Resort & Spa, Indian Wells](https://www.expedia.ca/Palm-Springs-Hotels-Renaissance-Esmeralda-Resort-Spa.h12274.Hotel-Information) > - [V Capri Palm Springs, a Dolce by Wyndham](https://www.expedia.ca/Palm-Springs-Hotels-V-Capri-Palm-Springs.h13065796.Hotel-Information) > - [Omni Rancho Las Palmas Resort & Spa](https://www.expedia.ca/Palm-Springs-Hotels-Omni-Rancho-Las-Palmas-Resort-Spa.h1703.Hotel-Information) > - [The Ritz-Carlton Bacara, Santa Barbara](https://www.expedia.ca/Santa-Barbara-Hotels-The-Ritz-Carlton-Bacara.h523758.Hotel-Information) > - [Residence Inn By Marriott Palm Desert](https://www.expedia.ca/Palm-Springs-Hotels-Residence-Inn-By-Marriott-Palm-Desert.h201084.Hotel-Information) > - [Desert Breezes Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Palm-Springs-Hotels-Desert-Breezes-Resort.h18709.Hotel-Information) > - [The Westin Desert Willow Villas, Palm Desert](https://www.expedia.ca/Palm-Springs-Hotels-The-Westin-Desert-Willow-Villas.h3304313.Hotel-Information) > - [The Ritz-Carlton, Rancho Mirage](https://www.expedia.ca/Palm-Springs-Hotels-The-Ritz-Carlton.h23876.Hotel-Information) > - [Hyatt Vacation Club at Desert Oasis](https://www.expedia.ca/Palm-Springs-Hotels-Welk-Resorts-Palm-Springs.h1140793.Hotel-Information) > - [Marriott's Desert Springs Villas II](https://www.expedia.ca/Palm-Springs-Hotels-Marriotts-Desert-Springs-Villas-II.h57218.Hotel-Information) > - [Tommy Bahama Miramonte Resort & Spa](https://www.expedia.ca/Palm-Springs-Hotels-Miramonte-Indian-Wells-Resort-Spa.h16768.Hotel-Information) > - [Ojai Valley Inn](https://www.expedia.ca/Santa-Barbara-Hotels-Ojai-Valley-Inn.h28098.Hotel-Information) > - [Agua Caliente Casino Rancho Mirage](https://www.expedia.ca/Palm-Springs-Hotels-Agua-Caliente-Resort-Casino-Spa-Rancho-Mirage.h2020169.Hotel-Information) > - [Marriott's Shadow Ridge I-The Villages](https://www.expedia.ca/Palm-Springs-Hotels-Marriotts-Shadow-Ridge.h853695.Hotel-Information) > - [La Quinta Resort & Club, Curio Collection by Hilton](https://www.expedia.ca/Palm-Springs-Hotels-La-Quinta-Resort-Club.h10916.Hotel-Information) > - [Indian Wells Resort Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Palm-Springs-Hotels-Indian-Wells-Resort-Hotel.h14026.Hotel-Information) > - [The Sandman Santa Rosa Sonoma, an Ascend Collection Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Santa-Rosa-Hotels-The-Sandman.h919721.Hotel-Information) > - [Sea Mountain Inn Nude Resort and Spa - Adults Only](https://www.expedia.ca/Palm-Springs-Hotels-Sea-Mountain-Inn-Nude-Resort-Adults-Only.h27490625.Hotel-Information) > - [Hilton Grand Vacations Club Palm Desert](https://www.expedia.ca/Palm-Springs-Hotels-Embarc-Palm-Desert.h328421.Hotel-Information) > - [The Westin Rancho Mirage Golf Resort & Spa](https://www.expedia.ca/Palm-Springs-Hotels-The-Westin-Mission-Hills-Golf-Resort-Spa.h4124.Hotel-Information)
