5 STAR **STRAWBERRY CORNER** CLASSIC CABIN ON CREEK, 1 MINUTE WALK TO VILLAGE!

Hi Everyone!

Park-like setting on prime lot with trees! Best cabin and location in Idyllwild! Enchanting vintage one of a kind cabin!

IDEAL FOR COUPLES or even more fun with FRIENDS AND FAMILY!

Prime location next to village! You can walk everywhere in minutes!

Acclaimed Historical Vintage Property built in 1925! Almost 100 years old! Featured on historical home tours.

It's the ultimate Idyllwild vacation home! There is something about Strawberry Corner that brings back memories of a sweet life, of baking pies and sitting by the fire, of feeling a part of a little town. This home gives everyone a feeling of the 'way it used to be'.... it enchants, delights, relaxes and intrigues all visitors. It just feels like 'home sweet home'.

Places like this are priceless and it is our great joy to have our guests experience the same feelings we have every time we open the antique wood door with the stained glass strawberry window! This house is perfect for those who want healing, restoration, romance, quality family time with the kids of all ages, peace and quiet, creativity, and personal renewal!

Rustic two story Cabin plus guest "Cowboy Cabin" ! Huge rock fireplace, hardwood floors, paned windows, charming first class decor!

This has one of most authentic living rooms in Idyllwild..... full of charm and ambiance! Comfortable leather sofas to sink into and gather around the river rock fireplace. Open 'barn doors' and french doors to the deck and watch the birds and squirrels. Enjoy a cup of coffee on the deck watching the sun come up over the mountains.

Evening is perfect for a glass of wine with family and friends watching the sun go down over the creek. A lovely dining room has a formal table for six for family dinners.

After dinner settle in for reading, games or watching a video on the big screen flat tv.

Four bedrooms sleeps up to nine guests! Additional guests over double occupancy are $15 per person per night.

IDEAL FOR COUPLES: Large downstairs master bedroom with big wood paneled Kingsize bed, antique mirrored armoire, great looking bedding with lots of comfy pillows! Downstairs bath is done cowboy style and has a large red iron tub for relaxing baths. If it's just the two of you, you will enjoy everything being on one level!

EVEN BETTER FOR FRIENDS AND FAMILY: Upstairs there are two more bedrooms. The 'Treehouse' is a charming room with a queen bed in forest green and cream decor with sitting area and window overlooking creek.

The other 'Quilt Room' upstairs is a fabulous 'kids room' or 'family style room' with THREE twin beds, each in it's own darling alcove. This room is decorated in country blues & red with Strawberry touches! Vintage "Dick & Jane" art graces the walls. There are lots of toys to play with plus a secret closet decorated as a little living room for teddy bears! The two upstairs room share a private bathroom with great high pressure shower.

Perfect weekend getaway
We stayed here for two nights with our two children. It is the perfect location and a minute walk to town. The upstairs has 3 children’s beds and toys and was so cute! We had fun exploring outside and there is even a zip line in the yard. The property is completely enclosed, so we felt safe with our kids and dog running around outside. The owner is so nice and responded immediately when I had a few questions

Strawberry corner is a lovely cabin!
This was our second stay at strawberry corner cabin. We were surprised to see new carpet upstairs and in the cowboy suite. We had a family reunion with other members staying in different cabins up the road and in pine cove, but everyone always came back to strawberry corner cabin. The whole family was impressed with the decor and detail that went into this wonderful place. And don’t forget to bring unsalted peanuts for the the beautiful blue birds on the deck, they came around 8am for us, every morning. The kids loved the yard, the birds, & the fantastic kid suite upstairs. And everyone loved the wonderful cabin feeling. Loraine was quick to respond w/any questions and extremely helpful. We will be sure to come back. Everyone had a wonderful stay! Close to town, cozy feeling, and plenty of room inside and out. You can not beat this house or location. I would definitely recommend!

Hi! I'm Loraine!
We love Idyllwild! Being in the real estate field as brokers, developers and investors for over 40 years, my husband and I know a choice property when we see it... and this is one! It took us all of five minutes to decide we had to own this treasure for our personal enjoyment. Now it's available as the ultimate Idyllwild vacation home! There is something about Strawberry Corner that brings back memories of a sweet life, of baking pies and sitting by the fire, of feeling a part of a little town. This home gives everyone a feeling of the 'way it used to be'.... it enchants, delights, relaxes and intrigues all visitors. It just feels like 'home sweet home'. Places like this are priceless and it is our great joy to have our guests experience the same feelings we have every time we open the antique wood door with the stained glass strawberry window! This house is perfect for those who want healing, restoration, romance, quality family time with the kids of all ages, peace and quiet, creativity, and personal renewal!

Why they chose this property

We purchased this home in 1998 when our daughter was three so we could have an authentic vacation lifestyle far from the busy cities or glitzy resorts. Idyllwild was clearly the best choice since it's within easy driving distance from the desert, San Diego, Orange County and Los Angeles. We loved the 'Norman Rockwell' small town feeling and the darling stores, crafting, hiking and great restaurants. It's so picturesque there! We feel safe and secure being so close to the village and were blessed to find a home that reflects the history of Idyllwild. It's been wonderful here and we would like to share the experience with others. We love being on the creek, which is a prime location in Idyllwild. We felt this home had it all! Location! Creek! Charm! Condition!

What makes this property unique

We love all the seasons! In the winter it's a WINTER WONDERLAND and the snow makes for a magic we rarely get to experience. SPRING brings out the colors and the green, SUMMER is divine with sunshine and warmth! and of course the FALL is enchanting with the leaves turning and a crispness to the air. Many guests have said it's the most romantic place they've been and we've had one proposal! Just sitting around relaxing and talking after a hike or stroll into the village is so great. I have to say it's really super for afternoon naps on the comfy couch too!
