Cabin holiday rentals in Desert Hot Springs

We had a wonderful stay at this very cute, charming, and peaceful cabin nestled in the heart of Idyllwild. The location was perfect — just a short walk to town, yet it still felt tucked away and off the grid, offering plenty of peace and quiet. The cabin was cozy and thoughtfully decorated, with all the comforts we needed for a relaxing mountain getaway. We especially loved how close it was to some of the best hiking trails in the area, making it easy to explore the outdoors without much driving. Whether you're looking to unwind or adventure, this cabin strikes the perfect balance. We would absolutely book again!

Excellent stay in this delightful cabin. The cabin was as described and was clean and very functional. What a treat to stay in a real log cabin! Only negative was that you are by windmills which means that there is a lot of WIND, which is not host's fault. The wind would howl at night so if you are a light sleeper, be sure to bring earplugs! The wind made everything harder, fire pit wouldn't stay lit, it was super cold getting to and from the hot tub, and even my luggage rolled off the deck! Overall we enjoyed our experience and felt the hosts were very communicative and kind.

My wife Labri and I loved Meri’s cabin. It was the perfect place for a nice relaxing weekend away. We felt right at hime from the second we arrived. The soaking tub is super nice and a perfect place to wind down at night. The square hammock is a great place for star gazing. We didn’t end up using the firepit due to high winds but I’m sure it would be nice. The cabin has everything you need for a romantic getaway. The dirt road up to the place is very bumpy and you have to go pretty slow so be prepared for that. I recommend you bring all the food and drinks you need so you don’t have to go out a lot. The cabin is only 30 minutes away from Joshua Tree National Park, which is a must see. All in all the place is perfect and highly recommend you stay here.

Great hosts. Very nice property. Super quiet neighborhood. Special vibe to the whole area

so many things to do, so peaceful! stayed here to spend time with s/o after long distance and it was an amazing stay with lots to do !! will definitely be coming back 🥹♥️ thank you for having us !

We had a wonderful stay. The fenced, MASSIVE backyard was fantastic for our dogs—they had the time of their lives. The interior was very spacious and perfect for our party. The game room with the ping pong table and projector were so much fun. Definitely would recommend!

Absolutely loved this home! Our dogs loved the fenced in yard and the home was exceptionally clean and cozy! Amenities for us and the dogs made it extra special. The hikes and the village were a quick drive from the home and very convenient for our spontaneous outings. The games and hot tub made it a relaxing night in after a long day hiking. Can’t wait to return soon! Thanks for everything!

My son and I have been visiting Idyllwild a few times a year since he was a young teen. We've stayed all over town, and we like Astrid's best so far. We came this time to lock ourselves in for the weekend of Alien Day (iykyk) to watch all of the movies. I chose this place because of the living room and TVs, and my son loved bringing his vinyl to spin. It was perfect for our niche trip. The photos don't do the place justice. It's cozy and interesting and filled with cool little details in each space. All of the instructions are clear, and Astrid is beyond helpful when answering ridiculous little questions. From the windows we saw deer families, chonky squirrels, and a very proud blue jay. At dusk, we heard the adorable clicks and commotion of resident bats. Astrid's place is perfect for families, couples, grown siblings. It's got great common areas and private rooms. A fantastic place that we will stay in again as soon as we have a chance.

My boyfriend and I, and our pup, needed a getaway from the daily grind and wanted to check out Idyllwild. This adorable A-frame provided us with the perfect spot to do so. Nestled in the mountains with an awesome deck surrounded by trees, jacuzzi, wood burning stove, it was just what we needed. I love the style of this cabin, modern but still homey. Great location too, easy 10 minute drive into town with some awesome restaurant options and cute galleries! Great hiking all over. The hosts were great, very communicative!! We would definitely stay again! Thank you 🙏🏼

Perfect place to land after backpacking! Easy to get to, close to town while feeling a million miles away! The place was cute and comfy

We had a wonderful stay at Peaceful Pines! The cozy cabin was perfect for us and our two dogs. The backyard is a huge blessing and allowed us to have some time together without our pups. Jay is a kind person and welcomed us when we arrived. We are hoping to make this an annual trip! Thank you Jay 🐾

We enjoyed a cozy place in a winter wonderland. It felt secluded but we were a short walk to town. Can’t wait to come back.

This place was a hidden treasure. We felt like we were staying in a tree house. Very beautiful surroundings, up in the trees. We had everything we needed in the house including many games to play and the host left us a bottle of wine, which was a thoughtful gesture. Would highly recommend this place if you want to enjoy hiking, going into Idyllwild, or just relaxing amongst the trees.

Lisa and Ryan were excellent hosts! A cozy and beautiful home in the mountains. The area was peaceful and it offered a nice view.

magical stay in the cabin. everything was perfect and cosy. really nice little touches throughout! Thank you Mario!

Thank you so much for letting my family and I make a home out of your cabin for a few days! We celebrated our youngest daughter’s 6th birthday while we were there. We didn’t expect snowfall so that was definitely a plus! The home was beautiful and our stay was more than pleasant! Thank you again for everything! Lots of love from my family to yours! 🩷

This was our second time at the Owl Pine and it was just as awesome as our first visit. The hosts are amazing, the space is perfect and is close to trails and town. We love the creek access and the peacefulness of the space. We hope to come back again!

Beautiful location, excellent cabin. Anita was very responsive, helpful and kind. Everything was exactly as described/pictured, all amenities were great, close to town and stores, provided items were perfect and thoughtful. Can not wait to visit again!!

Had a wonderful stay at Erin's Stargazing Boat Escape to Avalon. The name says it all. It was literally a stargazing escape on a boat to paradise. The place was so beautiful. From the awesome interior design of the house to the amazing backyard, you can tell Erin put a lot of thought and love in making this place special. I wish i had more time to enjoy everything. I will definitely be coming back. To top it all, I saw my first shooting star while laying on the boat. Wow!

Communication was clear, and Elena was always responsive. The home is beautiful and clean. The kitchen has all the amenities for a good morning coffee, or an eat-in dinner. Home temperature is easily controlled. The heated floors in the bathroom is a luxury touch. Thank you for sharing this wonderful home with us.

What a beautiful and peaceful home! We had the most relaxing week surrounded by nature and peace. Slow mornings on the sunny patio, bird watching, and beautiful walks. The WiFi is extremely fast and reliable. Highly recommend for anybody who has to be on nonstop video calls. This little cabin was like cream for our souls.

This was a great weekend getaway for my partner & I! This air bnb has everything you could need & is in such a great area! Near to downtown Idyllwild & lots to do. Highly recommend this place & we would come back in a heartbeat!

A unique place with history snd character! Kurt is an experienced host so everything went smoothly :)

The lot of land was perfect for snow play, and because of the proximity to the stream, we would love to come back and visit in spring/ summer.
