Travelled with family and small children, Travelled with pets
Beautiful house with all the amenities. Well equipped kitchen. Very cozy and comfy place. Loved the outside dinning area.
Jacuzzi and bathrooms are little dated. Jacuzzi only two people can sit and takes a while to heat up.

Great place for family and friends
Great place to stay, we found it very comfortable for our group (4 adults, 2 teens, and 2 dogs) and we would consider staying here again if/when we return to idyllwild. Cabin had all the conveniences we needed, and having A/C was a nice bonus. Loved having breakfast and dinners on the patio and hot tub in the evenings. Nice that cabin was set back from the road and had lots of trees, which made the property feel fairly private. Plenty of shady areas out in the yard to enjoy. Short drive to town center and various hiking trails. A few minor maintenance items noticed but nothing that impacted our enjoyment of the cabin and property.

Recommend passing; choose better option
Generally as described in listing but house smells strongly of cigarette smoke inside. Would not recommend to folks sensitive to smoke or smells. Property managers also have a pretty large list of disclaimers they ask you to sign and items they want to upcharge for, so it’s not the friendliest vibe.

Good overall
The location was a little less isolated than we'd hoped, but still nice and quiet. Check-in snafus due to short staff were well handled and everyone we dealt with was kind and professional. The house itself was pretty funky (old blinds, cobwebs on the windowsills etc,) but was cozy and well appointed. And it snowed!

Nice & quiet getaway
Rustic and quiet. Quirky is a nice way to describe the property. It has all the amenities, but sadly the drive way is difficult with the trees making the turn difficult especially for anything larger than a sedan.
Overall though you’ll enjoy the property once you’re out of the car.

Great weekend getaway
We had a wonderful time and enjoyed the peace and quiet. The little hot tub was perfect on a cool night, and we were within walking distance of two great restaurants. Although, be prepared for the altitude to kick your butt on the walk back to the house, which is decidedly more uphill. Would definitely stay here again, or look at some of the other properties offered by New Spirit.

Great cabin in Fern Valley
This cabin has everything we needed for our stay in Idyllwild. The hot tub was a great amenity. The cabin was a decent walk to town. Everything about the stay was easy and stress free.

Wonderful experience
It was a great experience living at "Sky Rock lodge", the cabin is fully stocked. Lots of utensils, cookware, dinneware and all the appliances. Its a super comfy cabin, with hot tub and BBQ on deck. The bathrooms also were clean and had essentials, ton of towels of towels for use. We faced some difficulty with hot water once, but the Lydia was kind enough to offer an extended 2 hour check out at no additional cost.

Nightmare go to another site !!!
The property was never prepped and the hillside driveway was covered in ice from the street to the door. All of the people in my party fell a minimum of three times. I've been to the ER and follow up appointments for shoulder pain because one fall I put my arm out and strained my shoulder. All they care about is getting the rental and they don't care about any safety concerns. I'm glad I didn't bring my wife's Eighty your old mother. I would have given five stars if some kind of safety prep work was done. Check out the listing thoroughly!!! Because after you sign everything is on you. I'm in pain still two weeks later and my weekend sucked no one was happy because they spent all weekend addressing their bruises and helping each other up and down the frozen driveway. Take my advice if you want to stay out of the ER don't rent a home from here!!!
