Kid-friendly holiday rentals in Strawberry Creek

As former residents of Idyllwild, we were so impressed with this little cabin! It is perfectly located- you’re close enough to town that you can walk, but far away enough for privacy and quiet. We were here during the spring and loved having the option to make a fire in the evening when it got chilly. The house itself is very minimalist, but tasteful. The only thing we wish we had was a washer/dryer because we stayed for a week and would’ve loved the option to clean our clothes during our stay. But overall, definitely recommend this location to anyone visiting the town.

This is our second time at Highrock House. Absolutely love the peacefulness and beautiful surroundings. Every amenity is available at the home - no need to leave unless you want to! This is our favorite place to stay in Idyllwild! We will definitely be back.

David’s place is even better than the photos. Charming, FULLY stocked with kitchen supplies, roomy and well cared for. We enjoyed using the fireplace and cooking in the kitchen, which has anything you could need, including spices.

Great place. Very bright and roomy. The soaking tub was super relaxing. Loved the deck and wandering around the property. It was close to the nature center and town. Great place and great host!

I absolutely loved my stay here and don’t think the photos did it justice! The surrounding views were great to wake up to and it felt like we had so much privacy. Everything was clean inside, the bed was comfy, and the vibe was very homey. The house was very cold when we arrived, but the loft area heated up quickly! We didn’t utilize the wood burner stove, but would definitely recommend for colder weather. We also used the hot tub which worked perfectly fine. Overall we had a great stay and will definitely be back, thanks Alexander 😊

We enjoyed our stay at Julee and Ross’ lodge. The place was very clean, even the floors were spotless. It’s toddler friendly with books and games to keep them entertained. Also had a few fun visitors like chipmunks and lizards to watch out the window. Area is quiet and peaceful and a quick drive into town. Kudos to Ross for being super responsive and sending us detailed instructions. Thank you!

Amazing and serene mountain getaway. Under 10 minutes drive to Idyllwild. Great communication with the host. We’ll surely be back.

Tara and Jim’s home is stunning! The views are beautiful and the surroundings are peaceful. The home was super clean and had plenty of amenities and comforts. We loved our stay!

Quiet and perfect for a small family.

Amanda was flexible and communicative with my last-minute request to stay as I was passing through the area. The place was just as described—cute, comfortable, safe, and just what I needed. Would certainly stay there again!

Karen is a great host and the listing was wonderful! My boyfriend and I stayed here with our dog and found it to be so peaceful! The outdoor amenities were great for hanging out and the Airbnb itself was more than enough space! We were very comfortable here and would recommend this to anyone visiting the area!

Loved our girls weekend at this amazing Palm Springs getaway. The house decor had all the mid century accents you love to see in Palm Springs. The pool and lounge area were great for during the day and then the bars/restaurants were a short drive away. Great price for a fantastic stay.

We had such a restful stay at Don's Casita! Very welcoming with all the snacks! Very close to wonderful restaurants. It was all perfect!

Chez Soleil was very accommodating to me . I only had a minor issue and they fixed it right away. Always there, always ready to communicate. The beds and linens are soooo good. Nice clean space and beautifully decorated too!! It's a WINNER

We had a great stay. The place was clean, mostly quiet, and just as described. We especially enjoyed the pool — it was a perfect way to relax and unwind. Overall, everything went smoothly and we’d definitely stay again.

This Airbnb is an absolute gem in the desert oasis—a perfect blend of enchanting charm and clever functionality. Every inch of the space has been thoughtfully designed, with a clear focus on creating a calm and welcoming environment for guests. It’s one of the best uses of space I’ve seen in any Airbnb, making it a little haven that invites you to relax, recharge, and soak in the unique desert ambiance. The host’s attention to detail and guest comfort truly sets this stay apart. I can’t recommend it enough!

This was just what I needed. It was clean, comfortable and well appointed. It provided a lovely respite in between the activities I had planned. I'd stay here again and recommend it to my friends.

This really is a great place to stay in Palm Springs - the apartment is lovely, super clean and with everything you could possibly need. Comfy bed, lovely furniture and linens. The swimming pool and hot tubs are fabulous with a very nice laid back atmosphere. All of the downtown bars and restaurants are a short walk away. I would definitely stay here again.

Very pleased with our stay here! This rental was exactly what we needed for a relaxing getaway to the desert! The outdoor space is quiet and super-private. We never saw or heard any neighbors, but watched hummingbirds spar overhead as we lounged by the pool. The pool is clean and perfect for floating all afternoon, looking out at the mountains. The spa is a great way to relax under the stars after dinner. The location was great. Close enough to downtown to be a quick drive when hot, or a reasonable stroll when it's cooler. And I appreciated being able to talk an early morning jog around the area. We didn't spend much time indoors, but it's a light, airy, and comfortable space. The kitchen is up-to-date and well-appointed. Communication with the hosts and their assistant was friendly, transparent, and proactive. Very nice people! We will gladly rent this place again when we return to PS for a desert getaway! Highly recommended!

Jerry and Craig have a wonderful, beautiful, and quiet place. As someone born and raised in Palm Springs, it was absolutely gorgeous getting to wake up to the view especially with such an inviting pool and backyard. It reminded me of when I was little. There’s a bunch of walkable places such as Koffi and an ice cream shop as well as clothing stores and a steakhouse. Jerry was an amazing communicator and checked in on multiple occasions to make sure we and our dogs had everything we needed. It was great to go and visit, and we are already looking by forward to our next stay!

We loved staying in this fabulous condo at the iconic Ocotillo Lodge, designed by famed midcentury modern architect William Krisel. Although the once spectacular public rooms at the Lodge are now shuttered, the grounds have been beautifully restored with cactus and succulents, and the large landmark champagne-cork shaped pool is beautifully maintained, serenaded (quietly) through the day with delightful recordings of classic Great American Songbook music of the 50's. The Brite Spot condo itself has been wonderfully decorated with handsome vintage furniture and lighting, a very comfortable bed, and beautiful terrazzo tile floors, and boasts a lovely little courtyard with a great old olive tree that throughout the day hosts various singing desert birds. The Lodge no longer has a working bar or restaurant, but coffee, cocktails, great food, and the sights and attractions of Palm Springs - including Krisel's justly famed Twin Palms community - are all just minutes away.

Jimmy and Iris were great hosts and provided a very clean and well equipped place to stay in a very quiet peaceful area of Palm Springs.

Thanks. Loved our stay

This is our second stay at Steve’s, and it’s always a pleasure. The welcoming atmosphere makes us feel right at home. Steve’s hospitality shines through with clear entry instructions and prompt responsiveness whenever we reach out. The hot tub, conveniently located right outside the door, adds to the charm. We always check the availability of his place before considering any other options.
