Cozy cabin retreat nestled among forest trees

The Marion Ridge Cabin is a two bedroom one bath gem tucked into the wooded forest of Pine Cove just outside of Idyllwild, California.

Cozy, and newly renovated, this 1930s cabin has the charm of old rustic cabin living with modern upgrades for all the comfort needed in a mountain retreat.

5 Minutes from the heart of Idyllwild, this cabin is close to countless hiking trails, great restaurants and art galleries while being far enough to feel like a proper nature retreat.

**The space**

LIVING ROOM

Our cozy living space is perfect for reading, snuggling in and ending a day of hiking in the forest. Books and games are available to help indulge in the comfort of the space and there is a Smart Roku TV and a Spotify Account with preset soundtracks for your cabin experience.

The living has both a wood burning stove and a wall furnace to help keep the house warm during our chilly Winter months.

BATHROOM

There is a newly renovated bathroom downstairs, equipped with a full shower, soap, shampoo and conditioner, and a heated floor to keep the chill away on those cool nights and mornings

KITCHEN/DINING ROOM

We provide a well stocked open kitchen made for cooking delicious meals. There is a dishwasher, microwave, stove top, oven and ample refrigerator. You'll also find several cookbooks to explore.

Morning coffee at the dining room table while looking out over the yard is a perfect way to start the day.

GUEST BEDROOM/OFFICE

We loved putting this room together! Light and airy, it's both cozy and spacious enough to sleep in and then use during the day to do remote work at the desk.

The bed is a new Queen hybrid foam mattress tucked into a wall frame that features two side cubbies that allow you to plug in phones or other small electronics bedside.

This room has a portable mini split that serves as both heater and airconditioner, extra blankets and pillows along with two small closets.

The L shaped desk provides you with ample room to work and aside from the high speed wifi in the house, this room also allows for an ethernet connection.

MASTER BEDROOM

The new Queen sized bed in this room is also a hybrid foam mattress nestled between two side tables and reader lamps for cozy nights and morning reading.

This is such a wonderful room to sleep long past early morning in.

There is a chair for dressing and a larger closet in this room, along with some storage cubbies for suitcases and the like.

This room also has a portable mini split that provides heating and air-conditioning when needed.


DECK AND PATIO YARD

The two wooden rocking chairs on the deck are the perfect place to sit at while the sun is setting. And our separate side deck provides you with comfortable seating and is a lovely space for dinner outside.

**Guest access**

The entire cabin is yours to use, along with the designated driveway as well as street parking.

NOTE: When there is snow, we have someone come and plow the snow away in order to keep parking accessible. There is also a shovel available that you can use in order to make the deck and walkway available for use.

**Other things to note**

Note that the property is about a 1/4 of an acre with two structures on it. The cabin you'll be staying in is on one side and the other structure is on the other half. Both structures are separated by a second long driveway and the quiet studio on the other side of the property is only used during daylight hours weekdays.

This was the most amazing stay for our anniversary/birthday get away. From the minute we walked in we were comfortable and at peace. All the extra touches were appreciated. The chocolates and note were a great surprise. We loved the binder with all the information and all the extras you had for anything we might have forgotten. The beds were comfortable and we felt so at home. We will definitely be coming back. I really appreciated all your great communication. Thank you so much for the wonderful stay.

Absolutely loved our stay at this cozy cabin in Idyllwild! From the moment we walked in, we felt welcomed. The thoughtful note and chocolate waiting for us were such a nice touch. The cabin was spotless, beautifully decorated, and incredibly well stocked with everything we could possibly need. It had the perfect balance of charm and comfort, and you can tell the hosts really care about the guest experience. We can’t wait to come back!
