Cabin in the Woods "Sky Rock Lodge" with Hot Tub, walk to town with a/c units

Sky Rock Lodge is nestled in the peaceful Fern Valley area of Idyllwild, just a short walk to Strawberry Creek and the heart of town, where you'll find shops, gourmet restaurants, cafes, galleries, and a movie theater. The lodge is also minutes from the Humber Park hiking trails and the iconic Tahquitz Rock, atop the San Jacinto Mountains.

This beautifully decorated mountain retreat sleeps 8 and offers an open, airy layout with two bedrooms, a spacious loft, and two full bathrooms, all outfitted with high-quality linens and towels. The Living Room/Dining Area and well-equipped galley kitchen are perfect for both entertaining and intimate getaways. Outside, the deck with a spa overlooks one-third of an acre, featuring mountain wildflowers, Pine and Black Oak trees, and comfortable seating areas with Appalachian Bentwood furniture, Adirondack chairs, and a Log Circle. The gentle front slope provides the perfect spot for a beginner's toboggan run and a fun play area for all ages!

Idyllwild is a charming haven for artists, nature lovers, families, spiritualists, and even squirrels! Immerse yourself in the fresh mountain air, just two hours from LA, Orange, and San Diego counties, and only 50 minutes from Palm Springs.

Beautiful house with all the amenities. Well equipped kitchen. Very cozy and comfy place. Loved the outside dinning area. Jacuzzi and bathrooms are little dated. Jacuzzi only two people can sit and takes a while to heat up.

Good overall
The location was a little less isolated than we'd hoped, but still nice and quiet. Check-in snafus due to short staff were well handled and everyone we dealt with was kind and professional. The house itself was pretty funky (old blinds, cobwebs on the windowsills etc,) but was cozy and well appointed. And it snowed!

Great place for family and friends
Great place to stay, we found it very comfortable for our group (4 adults, 2 teens, and 2 dogs) and we would consider staying here again if/when we return to idyllwild. Cabin had all the conveniences we needed, and having A/C was a nice bonus. Loved having breakfast and dinners on the patio and hot tub in the evenings. Nice that cabin was set back from the road and had lots of trees, which made the property feel fairly private. Plenty of shady areas out in the yard to enjoy. Short drive to town center and various hiking trails. A few minor maintenance items noticed but nothing that impacted our enjoyment of the cabin and property.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was clean. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Location was great, we were a few minutes walking distance from the town. Home was nice, they had everything you needed to cook, plenty of games for the family, and lots of space in each room. The only bad things were the coffee maker took 1.5 hours to get the coffee brewed and we found a couple of things from the previous guests, so not sure how well it was cleaned.

Better Than Expected!
Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Sky Rock Lodge was a delightful and cozy cabin retreat. Ample space for the four of us, lovely fireplace, windows to enjoy the outside snow, space for games, great kitchen, private master bedrooms and an unbeatable loft bedroom. Although we had extra beds and could have taken one of the masters, three of us chose to share the cozy loft! Management went above and beyond servicing us... kudos to each of them, thank you!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We had a positive experience overall. Would have rated it higher, but the rental polity left a bad taste, and will probably won't return because of it. $25-50/hr for early check-in/out is a little aggressive, especially if the are unreasonably at at 4PM and 10 AM. Also, no cell signals on the property and wifi is spotty at best.

Disappointment!
Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was clean. I was happy with the location. I was very dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The property is very run down and old. The pictures do not comport with the reality. Screens are torn and tattered, chairs and tables outside in disrepair and it's generally an old property that needs a big refresher.

Disliked: Cleanliness, check-in
Recommend passing; choose better option
Generally as described in listing but house smells strongly of cigarette smoke inside. Would not recommend to folks sensitive to smoke or smells. Property managers also have a pretty large list of disclaimers they ask you to sign and items they want to upcharge for, so it’s not the friendliest vibe.

Perfect Stay!
Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The cabin was quiet, relaxing, and had everything that we needed for a short getaway. I loved that this property was back away from the street. My kids and dogs loved exploring around the property and my dogs loved the fenced yard. We were able to relax in the spa and had everything that we could possibly need provided by the cabin- including beach towels! Every single person that I spoke with between the booking, check-in, and check-out process was friendly, helpful, and very welcoming.

Comfortable Stay
Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We had an overall comfortable stay. We liked the open layout of the cabin and location. The house is a bit worn and could use a few improvements, i.e. tiles in the bathroom and squeaky bedroom doors. Otherwise, it fit our needs and had plenty of kitchen items to cook.

Nice & quiet getaway
Rustic and quiet. Quirky is a nice way to describe the property. It has all the amenities, but sadly the drive way is difficult with the trees making the turn difficult especially for anything larger than a sedan. Overall though you’ll enjoy the property once you’re out of the car.

The kitchen was easy to use, the bedrooms private and nice, and the deck was lovely to have breakfast outside. We were lucky and saw live music every day of the 3 days in town and experienced a short thunderstorm!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: My family had a pleasant stay during our short gateway to Idyllwild. Kitchen was fully stocked, hot tub was working great, plenty of towels and overall a very a nice place. Convenient to Idyllwild hiking trails and easy to check in and out. Yard sitting area looks to be in a need of a maintenance. We didn’t use it so it did not affect our stay. Plus there is a dinning table on the patio.

Great weekend getaway
We had a wonderful time and enjoyed the peace and quiet. The little hot tub was perfect on a cool night, and we were within walking distance of two great restaurants. Although, be prepared for the altitude to kick your butt on the walk back to the house, which is decidedly more uphill. Would definitely stay here again, or look at some of the other properties offered by New Spirit.

Wonderful experience
It was a great experience living at "Sky Rock lodge", the cabin is fully stocked. Lots of utensils, cookware, dinneware and all the appliances. Its a super comfy cabin, with hot tub and BBQ on deck. The bathrooms also were clean and had essentials, ton of towels of towels for use. We faced some difficulty with hot water once, but the Lydia was kind enough to offer an extended 2 hour check out at no additional cost.
