My wife and I just returned from a quick weekend getaway. The cabin was perfect!! Very cozy in a quiet area of Idyllwild. Kitchen was well stocked and bed was very comfortable. We also utilized the front deck quite a bit to enjoy the weather and wildlife. Can’t wait to come back!

I was attending a birthday party for a friend of mine that lived nearby. I arrived late in the evening and there wasn’t much of a moon, so it was a little difficult to find at first, but once I found it, the check-in instructions were accurate and I settled right in. This cabin has a lot of charm and is very comfortable. , perfect for a secluded cabin getaway.., The only thing I would like to change about it would be a quieter refrigerator, and the strong scent of Final Net hairspeay in the bathroom. Again, just minor nuance items. Nothing that should keep any bloody from renting this wonderful little slice of heaven. Thank you so much for making it available to us!

My partner and I stayed at this charming gnome cabin for a week and our experience was beyond our already high expectations. The cabin is so cozy and charming. It has a rustic, mountain feel along with all of the comforts of home. Tim and Karen have thought of everything that one might need. We found the wood bucket stocked so we could make a fire right away. It was so lovely, we made a fire almost every night while we snuggled with our glasses of wine on the couch. The kitchen has everything you need to cook whatever you want. The bed was comfortable with plenty of warm blankets if needed. It is not far from Idyllwild, where we explored, met the Mayor (a dog!!) and enjoyed dinner at elegant restaurants 2 nights. Tim was easily accessible when I needed help with connecting to Netflix, although we only watched it once! We took walks along the winding roads and met a couple of friendly residents getting ready for the summer. I highly recommend this little hide away and would definitely stay there again if we go to Idyllwild.
Even though the driveway is steep, backing in, as Tim suggested, worked well and we had no difficulty with it.
Also, there is a loft above the main floor with two beds and plenty of space for children to have their own space while still being close enough to be well supervised.

We enjoy the place. It was nice that they helped us to shovel the snow from our parking space and walk way made it easy for us. Since we were only woman staying in the cabin. Felt nice and secure. We all enjoyed it a lot especially because we got to see snow falling down. Thanks for having such a great place for relaxing.

This cute little cabin is PERFECT if you're looking for a peaceful getaway with all the comforts and amenities of home. Loved the private location and proximity to town and the fact it was dog friendly! Very accommodating as were the hosts. Great communication from start to finish.

My husband and I wanted a quick getaway from the city for a couple nights, and this cabin was just what we needed! The check-in/out process was easy (they even let us know the cabin was cleaned early and offered us early check-in), we loved sitting on the deck with our dog and feeling the storm breezes, and capping off the night with a fire in the fireplace. Tim and Karen made it a hassle-free last minute trip and we hope to book again in the future!

First of all, I stayed a week and don't think you'll ever find better hosts than Tim and Karen. They are very attentive to detail, and responsive to any and every concern. The only condition I feel obligated to mention is the driveway. Not being paved, it does have some rather deep loose gravel spots (enough to catch your wheel) and in my experience can be deceptively steep. So listen to the comments and know your vehicle. (Just personally, mine is a bit too large for me to maneuver easily). But if you can back down successfully, park next to the house, and get a running start - you really will be fine! Or, if you prefer walking/hauling down and up, there's a dedicated parking space at the top. Now, with that being said... I really want to emphasize that Tim and Karen have made sure this lovely little cottage has all the warm comforts of home, with every need met to one's heart's content. The forest surroundings inside and out are charming and delightful. And it truly is a treasure of peaceful tranquility, nestled in the beauty of Creation.

We took our kids to AstroCamp and needed a place to stay while they were there. This cabin did not disappoint, it had everything you could possibly need plus some. Supper clean and cozy! Close to city center where there is food and a ton of really cool shops. Our kids are already talking about going to AstroCamp again next year and we really hope we can stay here again!! Absolutely perfect!!

Took the family of five up to the mountains for a quick getaway. The owners were wonderful about making sure the cabin was warm when we arrived. The cabin comfortably slept the five of us and had everything we needed to unwind and relax for a few days. We had a great time and the kids can’t wait to come back!

We had a lovely time at the cottage . The location is located on a quiet lane, with plenty of privacy . We had a relaxing time, enjoying the fireplace and movies .
The outdoor area was peaceful for reading and relaxing.
The deck was perfect for our little dog, as it had a gate to keep her contained.
The owner was very responsive,and helpful in our planning.
We will be returning for another visit the next time we visit Idyllwild .

This is the cutest and funkiest 50's style Idyllwild cabin. It has been upgraded with nice amenities, you have it simple but very comfortable spending the weekend surrounded by nostalgia. It's seen a lot of use and wears it like a badge of honor.
I do wish that the outdoor deck area was set up for sitting awhile because I didn't want to spend the entire time in the cabin. It is classic dark inside with the knotty pine board walls and ceilings during the day. I can't see sitting inside all day, didn't want to play tourist and leave to shop, didn't want to eat out, too old to hike Taquitz! We got some really nice doggie walks in but had to keep the dogs in the car or in the cabin while we were outside as the deck fencing doesn't go down to the deck and our little dogs both jumped and bolted so we had fun chasing them down when they discovered they could escape. All in all it was a nice weekend. Loved the general area but you better be ready to drive down a very steep hill to park next to the cabin. I don't think it's a good choice for people who aren't real ambulatory. But most of those cabins are like that with crazy steep stairways etc.
Not much a view but you are in the mountains surrounded by trees and the ambiance of nature out of the hustle bustle of town. It is a very peaceful location.

Me and my husband and are dog loved it . I was up to recover from throat cancer and to beat the heat of Palm desert we had a nice relaxing time here. The owners our management of the property were good in answering and questions we had and also very helpful
.Everything you need is there just like home the front patio has a little gate for your small ones our a small dogs . The only thing I could say if your a senior with a cane it can be a little bit of a challenge for everyday walking. And the parking is steep for most cars to park near the cabin . but there is parking up a little hill just becareful of loose gravel when going up our down . Happy trails .

Cabin was cozy, comfortable and stocked with everything I needed, such as cookware, bedding and towels. The tv was easy to use and I liked the location away from the weekend hubbub and crowds. Backing down the driveway was a bit of a challenge initially, but once I did it I knew the layout.
It was a lovely weekend! TY!

Cabin with tree house
We really enjoyed our stay here. My littles especially loved the loft area they called their tree house! So much so they decided to sleep up there leaving Mama and Papa the bed to themselves..a real treat 😉. It was five minute drive to the most idyllic little village where we enjoyed delicious food. We really just enjoyed lounging about the cabin or sitting on the porch watching my girls play outside. Everything was labeled and clean. We had everything we could possibly need. Except for the key safe not opening in the beginning…. Host got back to us right away about the spare and our car getting stuck on the driveway. I strongly suggest everyone just park up top of the driveway we had an absolutely awesome time!

This cabin was absolutely perfect for me and my boyfriend’s romantic getaway. Every little detail is so thoroughly thought through by the hosts to make your stay wonderful and cozy. The cabin was the perfect size, had a full kitchen, laundry, very comfortable bed, beautiful front deck- all the amenities you can wish for. The location of it was also perfect- just a 5 min drive from the town. We went on hikes (plenty of those around), had our morning coffee on the deck watching the squirrels and the birds, watched Netflix in the evenings-super relaxing times. Could not have imagined a more perfect place for a getaway. Thank you so much, Tim and Karen. (We reaaaally didn’t want to leave)

Cabin was great overall. Steep dirt driveway was difficult to navigate. Smelly plug in air freshener wasn’t needed. I didn’t pay attention when the description stated smart TV with apps and Netflix. I assumed it included actual TV stations but it doesn’t. No cable so if someone wants TV this is not the cabin for you. Bed was very comfortable and cabin was very clean. Nice private location.

We so enjoyed our 2 day stay at the Lazy Gnome! Although small, or family of three had plenty of space. We loved the retro appliances, everything worked great.
