About this lodge

Escape to Shadow Pine Lodge (RivCo STR# 71-352), our majestic 1925 former hunting lodge set high in the San Jacintos. Tree top expansive views as far as the eye can see. The main sleeping loft features a charming atmosphere with half bath and a deck in the trees. Enjoy morning coffee/tea or an afternoon glass of wine. The downstairs living room is anchored by a grand fireplace. There is a bunk room with two beds and a smaller open space with a daybed. Full kitchen and full bath complete the interior.

Rustic open floor plan allows for easy family entertaining or romantic getaway. Sunny nook off of living room with indoor hammock is perfect for afternoon reading or napping. Wood burning stove is the perfect touch for those cold mountain nights. Lodge also has A/C and heating via mini splits. Well stocked kitchen for whatever your tastebuds desire. Huge deck with stunning views features outdoor dining, BBQ, lounge chairs and inviting hot tub. Quick 10 minute run down the hill and you are in village of Idyllwild.

Guests will have the full access to the entire property. Please be aware this is the forest and there are critters that live here that may wander inside the fences.

We have tried to think of everything to make your stay as carefree and easy as possible. Contactless check in with keypad door lock. Host is available via text to assist you. In the unlikely event you do require onsite assistance we have a local representative available to help.

We're located in Pine Cove which is just over 3 miles up the road from the mountain hamlet of Idyllwild. Restaurants, bars shops and a movie theatre are a 10 minute run down the hill. World class hiking is minutes away. From an easy out and back stroll to linking up with the Pacific Coast Trail or getting to the peak of San Jacinto there is a hike for every skill level.

The cabin is located on a privately maintained road. During the winter the snow plows do not run on a regular schedule.

Access to the Lodge is via a trail/pathway that winds up from the parking area. Folks with mobility issues may find it challenging to navigate (especially during winter months if there is snow) and we strongly recommend checking with us if you have any questions or concerns prior to booking.

PineCove Water District requires the water to be shut off when the property is not being occupied. You will receive detailed instructions in your check in email regarding how to turn the water on and off at completion of your stay.

There is no curbside trash pick up in Idyllwild/PineCove. We ask that guests take all trash generated during their stay to the County Transfer Station for disposal. You will be given detailed instruction in your check-out memo. Transfer Station is located about 15 minutes from the lodge. Please ask if you have any questions or concerns.

The hosts were friendly, welcoming, and accommodating. The home is situated in a beautiful location, well-decorated among the treetops, with a jacuzzi on the deck. My family of three, including our dog, had an amazing trip, enjoying this lovely home, hiking, exploring the town, and spending quality time together. I would highly recommend this property.One thing to note: the cabin can get chilly. It might be wise to bring firewood, as the town was sold out during our trip over a busy holiday weekend.

Great cabin at the top of a hill with amazing views over the valley. Well appointed with comfortable chairs, full kitchen, patio seating, and hot tub. Hard to ask for more.

The cabin is such a wonderful retreat in tucked in the woods. The kitchen was great to cook in and the views were incredible. I also want to take a moment to highlight the responsiveness of the hosts to anything we needed. They were great hosts. I'd stay here again!
6 / 10Average·Jul 2025
The place was nice. The Hot Tub was great. Good kitchen with good amenities. Everything was good, but… getting to the house one a one way street, you have to go down and turn around to get up the hill to park. Then there is a hike 200 feet and up 30 ft elevation that’s winding, gravel, and dirt. I had to make 6 trips up and down with my food and suitcases. If this was a place you would park and take your things in 20 feet on the same level, I would stay again. I’m older so this was hard for me. If you’re younger and don’t mind the hike up to it, I think you will like it.
