About this property

Close to town & Newly Renovated, Large Gated Yard

Less than a half a mile away from Idyllwild's town center our very family friendly cabin will be a great place for your group to stay and explore the Idyllwild area. Our remodelled camping themed cabin has two bedrooms, two full bathrooms, a loft play area for the kids with their own tv and camping area, and a fully fenced in yard. You can pull into our driveway, close the gate and leave the car behind as you relax in our wooded yard and deck area or take the short walk into town.

This listing is for only the large cabin on the property. We have another smaller cabin on the property and you can book that cabin as well! If you would like to book the entire property (both cabins) you can book at this listing. We will never book out the property separate parties, so if you book through this listing and reserve only the large cabin, you will not have access to the smaller cabin but will still have the property to yourself.

The space
Our cozy, recently remodeled 1930's cabin is the perfect place for a small group to escape to the mountains while being close to the "action" in the town of Idyllwild. Vintage camping found items adorn the walls of our modernized cabin, so that you will have everything that present day humans require with the comforting nostalgia of years gone by.

Our cabin's interior, has two bedrooms, two full bathrooms, fully equipped kitchen with washer dryer, a large living area downstairs with a dining nook & reading areas and a two room lofted kid play area upstairs.

Our bedrooms & bathrooms have smaller footprints as the cabin was built in 1931 and everything was smaller back then, however they are cozy and we think you will find that they are fully equipped with everything you should need for your stay. We have window/wall air conditioning units in both bedrooms and central heat throughout the cabin.

The master bedroom has a rustic king size bed with an ensuite bathroom, & jet tub/shower combo. There are blackout shades and charging stations for all of your modern day electronics, reading lamps as well as mood lighting, along with a small closet and luggage racks for your luggage. We have an a/c unit in the bedroom that can be controlled separately.

The 2nd bedroom has a bunk bed with a twin size bed on top and a queen size bed on the bottom. There are also black out shades, charging stations, reading lamps, a clothes hanging area and small luggage racks. there is also an a/c unit in this room that can be controlled separately from the other bedroom.

Both of our bedrooms have TVs with Roku/firestick access to internet based streaming apps.

The 2nd bathroom has a tub/shower combo and both bathrooms come stocked with shampoo, conditioner, body wash, linens and storage/cabinet & shelves.

Our kitchen is a galley style kitchen with access to our back deck area. It is fully equipped and stocked with all the equipment you should need. We have a drip coffee maker and will provide some coffee packets, creamer and sugar. We also usually have cooking oils, salt & pepper and basic spices. We also have a propane BBQ for grilling on our back deck. There is a washer/dryer located at the far end of our kitchen. If you have any specific requests, please let me know and I will let you know if we have it available.


The living area has a small sectional as well as a nook dining area, rocking chair, game/puzzle/book cabinet, cushioned reading area and a small sidebar area for extra storage. We have strong wifi and a large television with cable and Roku. You will need to log into your own profiles to use the internet streaming apps. We also have a stone fireplace at the center of our living space, however it is non-functional at this time.

We have a very unique space in our loft upstairs which is stocked for fun and ready for the kids! Our unique, log-ladder-esque stairway leads to the upstairs area which has a bean bag and cushioned tv hangout area in the first room and a camping themed play area in the back room. The tv hangout area comes with a roku enabled tv and is ready for video game console hookups. The camping themed play area has a small tent, toy bins, faux lit campfire area with log shaped cushions, and a starry night sky projector with bluetooth speaker. **Please note that the upstairs has lower than normal ceilings. It's definitely meant for kids, as a lot of adults will not be able to stand up straight while walking up there.

Our entire yard (front & back) is fenced in so when you drive into our driveway, you can close the gate behind you and let the kids and dogs run free. We have a deck with dining area, propane grill, and adirondack chairs off of our kitchen. There are also rocking chairs on our front deck and cornhole equipment available. Our backyard area is wooded and fairly large, although it is slightly sloped and un-landscaped. We have garden gnomes hidden around and it's a great place to setup scavenger hunts.
Guest access
You will have access to the entire property and cabin. There is another small cabin on the property which will be locked up as it is not yet available. Check back in the future as we will have this smaller cabin available as part of the rental soon! We won't have separate guest groups on the property at the same time ever, so the entire property is yours. Our "Camp Malarki" is named after my long time furry companion, Barki Malarki. The two cabins on the property are named after my mom's pups Tallulah & Guilley. The "Camp" is just one yard with two separate cabins on it. It's a fun inspired property so we wanted to name it something fun too!
