Dec 29, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Christmas Cabin Moonlight retreat was beautiful! It was already decorated for Christmas with a tree and all! The layout is quirky, in a good way! So much woodwork, really felt like we were in a cabin! We were super close to town, but you wouldn’t know it. Lots of hikes within a few minutes. The deck was incredible, comfy, and the views were great! Hot tub was wonderful and stayed hot! It was so peaceful and relaxing all around.A couple things to note, no curtains on most windows, so it’s bright, but beautiful to wake up to Mountain Views. Cabin road was steep and windy so we were grateful there was no ice or snow, otherwise it could have been tricky getting to the cabin. Overall, we would definitely recommend this cabin! We loved our time here! ##### natalie f. Stayed 5 nights in Dec 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Pam P. Nov 26, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, location, listing accuracy Disliked: Communication #### Gorgeous Mountain Setting for Large Families We had a large family with 5 children. Everyone had a place to sleep and plenty of area to play. We cooked almost all meals and the kitchen, breakfast nook, and large dining room table were great. The property was fun -- climbing, hiking opportunities everywhere! We set up a telescope on the deck for the moon at night and the acorn woodpeckers during the day. We would definitely come back! Negatives: We tried to contact the property owner 3 times with questions and only got a response once. Also, we ran out of toilet paper on day 2 because no extra was stocked. We were reassured that some would be delivered, it wasn't, and we had to go to the store and buy some. ##### Pam P.

It had everything you need for a lovely weekend getaway with friends. The hot tub was perfect for the cold wintry weather. The beds were super comfortable. And the abundance of games, pool table and shuffleboard added some much needed competition amongst friends. We would definitely recommend. ##### Bradley J.

The slippery Ivey road at the top of the hill was the only issue we experienced. ##### Cindy G. Stayed 2 nights in Dec 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### frances h.

Our group of 10 had plenty of room to share meals and hang out on the deck with more than enough seating. The kitchen had everything we needed to make full meals, even the pots and pans were really nice. Most of the time in Rentals the pots are horrible. We had a great time at the property, would definitely return. ##### frances h.

Great views. A lot of space. Interesting layout but great with 3 living spaces for everyone to spread out. Love the deck and hot tub. Finding the house is a challenge. They almost need to have a map included in directions. ##### Nikki C.

Plenty of bedding and towels, and i was pleasantly surprised to find even the mattress cover on the pull out couches were clean! Kitchen was well stocked. It was quiet, peaceful, and really a beautiful setting, yet just a few minutes drive to town so it was easy to make as many trips as we wanted. We had lots of fun with the pool table and shuffle board, and the multiple TV’s were great. The house is so unique and all of the wood working is gorgeous. Even though it was extra hot weather and the house doesn’t have AC, the rental provided fans, there is actually quite a bit of shade over some areas of the house, and at night the temp was perfect for sleeping with the windows open. We would definitely stay here again. ##### Marina O. ### 2/10 Terrible #### Jason H. Jul 22, 2024 Liked: Check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy Disliked: Cleanliness #### Very disappointed!!! I hate to leave this review but I hope it will help other people when booking in Idyllwild. Due to windows and doors not sealing, we had an issue with mice starting the evening we checked in. New Spirit was very helpful by bringing traps to help take care of the problem. However, even with the additional traps, we continued to see mice throughout our stay. On the day before we checked out, there were baby mice in blanket used by our grandson. On top of the problem with mice, the house was extremely warm due to not being able to open all the windows. Most of the windows were missing screens so they could not be used without letting bugs getting in the house. We were not able to utilize the upstairs bedroom with single beds. It was too hot to sleep in that room. We were in communication with New Spirit Vacations throughout our stay. They were extremely helpful. The last night they moved us to a different house that was much nicer. I would not hesitate to rent one of their houses due to them making up for the issues during our stay. However, I would not stay in this house until they address the mice, screens, and a few other maintenance items. ##### Jason H.
