Strawberry Creek Retreat: Refined A-Frame Cabin W/AC
Our cabin is the perfect pet-friendly getaway with new central air conditioning. The open A-Frame cabin is tucked away on a quiet street yet is just minutes away from the picturesque shops and restaurants in the center of town. Humber Park trailhead is within walking distance of the cabin providing easy access to the Ernie Maxwell and Devils Slide trails. Strawberry Creek runs through the back yard creating a peaceful atmosphere and a lovely sensory experience when the creek is running. The space Inside you will find high ceilings and windows that show off the beautiful scenery and create plenty of light. The downstairs features open architecture that A-frame cabins are known for and include a gas stove, chef’s kitchen, and wine fridge for making unforgettable meals. Our favorite spot in the cabin is a cozy reading nook that sits next to the wood-burning fireplace and looks out onto the creek. You’ll often see deer outside sipping from the creek or running through the snow.
The Outside offers a spacious fenced-in deck off the kitchen with a natural gas Weber BBQ, and a large table for entertaining and enjoying alfresco dining. The deck is the perfect spot to enjoy the scenery and the quiet of the surrounding woods with views of both the creek and the mountains in the distance.

Great location
Within a half mile of Ernie Maxwell and Devil's Slide trails so you can walk to the trailhead or use the house Parking Pass. Beautiful, moderate hikes. House has large windows that fill the A-frame roofline with gorgeous tree views. Open floor plan with long dining table, couch, chairs, kitchen island and slider to deck all in one big space was perfect for our group of 5.

Lovely cabin
We spent Thanksgiving weekend with our three adult kids at the Strawberry Creek Retreat and loved it! The kitchen was well equipped, allowing us to make a Thanksgiving meal. The open living room/dining room was a wonderfully comfortable place to hang out. Two private bedrooms and the loft each have their own bathrooms, which worked out perfectly for all of us. Parking was easy, and it's a very short drive into town. Communication with our hosts was smooth, and they were responsive. Excellent cabin and owners, I highly recommend it!

What a great view!
We loved staying here. The view was amazing! The windows in the living room gave you front row seats to watching the deer go up and down the creek. The cabin was beautiful and spacious! It was also so close to the town. I would highly recommend this cabin to anyone looking for a cabin in Idyllwild.

Not a premium property
I regret to say that this wasn't the premium property expected, especially based on the pictures. While Alex was quick to respond to our inquiries and booking, the high cost of the property didn't seem justified. Additionally, the recommended insurance added to the expenses was unreasonable. We were also surprised by the substantial cleaning fee, especially since we noticed several areas that needed attention. The checkout instructions were also disappointing. It felt unnecessary to pay a cleaning fee and still be required to do the cleaning ourselves before leaving. This included us having to strip the beds and loading the wash with the towels and bed linen. Also, there were some missing essentials like Ziploc bags, aluminum foil, napkins, salt, pepper, and extra towels in the cabinets and such. This lack of attention to detail was frustrating.
Although Alex mentioned letting him know if anything was missing for future guests, we couldn't help but feel overlooked. The beds were not very comfortable and they felt like hammocks with no support, so we had to sleep on the couch. When we informed Alex his reply was, "we've never had a complaint before."
The cleanliness of the property was also not up to our standards (see pics), which was the most disappointing aspect of our stay. The location was great as well as the view.

Great, but lots of dog hair
Great place and space. Only downside? Lots of dog hair. If you are going to charge $100 extra cleaning fee for those who have brought pets in the past, then there shouldn't be so much dog hair. Whoever cleans it might be taking your money without providing the extra cleaning for pets.

Beautiful Place and Great Hosts
This location is beautiful and close to town. The host was so accommodating and responsive. He solved any issues we had and was really nice. The only bummer was the cleanliness. It sounds like it was an anomaly because it was a one time different cleaning crew. There were dishes in the dishwasher, bedding and towels in the dryer, dead bugs everywhere, and the door was filthy and made our feet black. Thankfully the host sent their normal cleaning lady and she mopped. But I had to put stuff away and wipe up bugs on vacation! But overall it was a great place and nice hosts.

Family Getaway and Spiderwebs
Spider webs inside and outside. There were a disappointing amount of spider webs in and out of the property. Checkout Instructions were detailed. Strip the beds of all linens, wash all used towels, and take any extra trash to the dump 10 minutes away. We did not have extra garbage bags, the pantry did not include amenities such as coffee, ketchup, or syrup.
The outside was disappointing cared for. We could not use the hammock swings on the front porch due to an overwhelming amount of spiders. Had to sweep out the back patio and table to use the space.
The property seems to be only cleaned inside and the upper rafters were also full of spiders.
The property is as advertised but the outdoors is not kept up. All of the windows had several webs in each window sill.
We are aware of the rural location but the property was obviously not kept up when it comes to cleaning the webs in and out the house.

Weekend Getaway and Camp Pick-up
We stayed here over a weekend to spend time with family and to be close to Idyllwild Arts for a camp pick-up. The house was gorgeous and a great fit for our family. It was nice to be a quick drive into the village and up to Humber Park. The house location is wonderful with views of Suicide Rock and Tahquitz Rock from the front and the beautiful babbling Strawberry Creek in the back. Also, Alex was very responsive with a couple of minor issues we had.

Exactly what we were hoping for
This property was the perfect winter escape we were looking for. Excellent upgrades through the house and excellent views of the creek running behind the house. There was enough room in the back for a little sledding and there were some great areas to hike nearby. When heading back into the area we will definitely be looking for this listing again.

Cute cabin
The cabin was exactly as shown in the listing. We had tons of fun playing in the snow and exploring the town and hanging out in the great room. Because we were coming in and out from the snow, there did not seem to be enough tour mats and rugs for us to clean our feet on. Also, we felt the kitchen was severely under stocked. Pots and pans desperately need to be replaced, and basic items like a can opener were missing.

5+ Star Stay
Our weekend getaway at the Strawberry Creek Retreat couldn't have been more perfect for our family with kids and a dog. Stepping into the cabin instantly exceeded my expectations. The open-concept design was great and was easy to keep an eye on all the kiddos. Plus the breathtaking snow and creek view was a great bonus. It was also a nice surprise that the two bedrooms and loft area, all had full size bathrooms. The hosts were amazing answering all our questions and making my family feel more than welcomed. Would definitely come again!
