Secluded "Hidden Heaven" Vintage Cabin on Strawberry Creek, Walk to town

“Old Idyllwild” charm. Authentic mountain cabin built in 1923, right on the edge of Strawberry Creek (literally). You can open any window in the cabin and hear the seasonal creek running through Idyllwild. A short, lovely 10 minute walk (4/10 of a mile) from the center of town. Secluded location hidden from road, surrounded by beautiful grove of pines, redwoods, oaks and dogwoods. A perfect retreat to reconnect and rejuvenate. Home is also walking distance to the local creekside amphitheater. Stop by there on the weekend during the summer to enjoy concerts in the park. Or listen from the back deck the sound of music filtering through the trees.

- Kitchen had all typically needed items for breakfast, lunch, dinner.- Outdoor BBQ functional but flimsy / rickety feeling had a massive fat flare up as it hadn't been cleaned for a while. If they just replace the BBQ I couldn't fault the cooking facilities.- Very hot water throughout for shower and kitchen.- Super fast and strong WiFi.- Excellent location just a short walk into town- Enormous deck- Gorgeous trees and delightful burbling stream

Highly recommend! This is truly a little slice of heaven, you feel private and secluded but can easily walk to town along the creek trail. Clean and cozy accommodation and a great escape for some tree bathing and relaxation.

This was our first time to this lovely town. Upon arriving to Hidden Heaven and entering this very charming cabin we felt like wanting to sell our homes and settle in Idywild in a home like this. We plan to return again and again until that day comes.

Wonderful cabin. The cabin was fully stocked with amenities. The view of the creek and outdoors from the deck was amazing. You feel totally secluded, while still being a short walk into town. Would definitely stay again and recommend to friends.

Everything was so amazing. Location, cleanliness, so many things available. I just with we could have checked in early to enjoy a full day there. 4 pm check in is late compared to other places. But I loved it! We will definitely rebook.

Wonderful place!

Our stay was wonderful. The place is very comfortable and well maintained. Nestled in the trees with plenty of shade. A classic cabin in the woods. The kitchen is well stocked with cooking equipment and basic necessities. Having the creek within view behind the deck is wonderful.

Hidden Heaven Review

We wanted an older rustic style cabin with a great big stone fireplace. A cabin that felt like a trip backwards through time. Hidden Heaven is precisely that! Everything about this cabin was nostalgic. From the fresh smell to the warm thick blankets available for you to wrap yourself in during the cold nights. Also, it’s location! Less than a 10minute walk to the center of town via the trail path behind the cabin. We cannot wait to stay again!

Adorable

We stayed here for a wedding that took place at the Harvey House up the street and it was super easy to walk to and from the venue. The house is adorable and you feel like you’re staying at grandma’s house. Very cozy, very clean. I accidentally locked myself out of the house and they had someone there to let me back in within 15 min. The creek behind provided a beautiful background when out on the patio. Would definitely stay here again.

The cabin was a hidden haven.

This lovely cabin was tucked into the hillside overlooking a creek. It was a beautiful setting, secluded but close to town. There was a nice nature path behind the cabin that took you to town. There were 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms that allowed each couple their privacy. A good place to read by the fire and enjoy nature.

We really enjoyed our two weeks day in this charming vintage cabin. The creek location is perfect. The furnishings we’re very comfortable and the rental agency staff we’re excellent in helping to resolve a minor issue. Perfect place to read a book, bbq on the deck or explore the town.

Great cabin with terrific location!

We had a great stay at this great cabin next to the stunning creek. Four of us women got to reconnect and celebrate a friend’s birthday. The deck was absolutely perfect for enjoying our coffee in the morning and our wine and charcuterie in the afternoon. The sounds of the creek were so peaceful and the beds were so comfortable for a great way to recharge on our getaway! I would highly recommend this cabin as will be back!
