Dog friendly mountain getaway

Dog friendly home in a great location walking distance to town. Our dogs loved sniffing around the large fenced in back yard and we enjoyed watching them from the patio with the mountain views. The fireplace was great for warming up and relaxing after a day out hiking. The kitchen was fully stocked with everything needed for meals at home. We will definitely stay here again the next time we visit Idyllwild.

A trip not soon forgotten...

Trekked out to the Honey Bear cottage for our daughters birthday, and to get out of LA. We were battling traffic for well over 5 hours, but were greeted with a warm home on a cold night. The place was just great! Huge backyard to play ball/horseshoe, all the amenities needed, centrally located to everything, and the decor. Bears everywhere! The family loved finding bear easter eggs/hidden gems throughout. Would highly recommend. The hosts, Elena and Harold, were super communicative and helpful. Also acidentally left my wedding ring in the bathroom and they reached out to let me know they found it and are mailing it back. How awesome is that?! Really impressed by the kindness and thoughtfulness of Elena and Harold

Great stay

We had a great time at the cabin. My parents went for their 50th anniversary. We had champagne waiting for them and cute flowers on the bed. Cabin was in excellent condition. Only negative would be that the bathroom was much smaller than I had expected. Which made it difficult since my mom needs help when using the restroom. However we made it work and had a great weekend in Idyllwild.

Cozy and Rustic

We enjoyed our stay at Honey Bear. Highlights: gated deck and fenced yard to enjoy with our dog, nice towels and sheets, close enough to town to walk yet not too close. Elena and Harold were effective and prompt communicators which we greatly appreciated.

We loved Honey Bear Cottage!

The check in process was very easy! We got there Friday night and the heater was on and the fire built ready to light was a very nice touch along with chocolates! The cottage is very cozy, clean and comfortable! The backyard is completely fenced in which was nice for our furry babies. The EV charger was also awesome! We've stayed at several different cottages in Idyllwild and this is our new favorite!!

A Cozy Stay at the Honey Bear

Even more charming than the nice photos can show. So nice to open a door and see big smiles and hear wow’s from the family. The fun bear themed cottage was perfect for small family or two couples to enjoy. Great kitchen and supplies for morning coffee on the deck to enjoy the quiet morning and fresh mountain air. Our little Havanese dog took to the provided dog bed in an instant and now has his own back home. Quiet comfort in the woods we can recommend with 5-stars and big smiles.

Our stay at Honeybear cottage

It was a great stay. I my wife and I had a great time. The backyard was amazing to just relax underneath the oak tree. The location is a short stay to town for all the activities. We thank you again for making our stay the best that I can be. Will be staying here again in the future.

Nice and cozy place. Everything was great, enough heaters to keep us warm. My dogs had fun and they were safe. I recommend it for a couple or 2 people and a dog.

Thank you so much for your hospitality! Easy to check in, great area, sweet house that was clean and cozy. Also, friendly neighbors (which isn’t a given with rental properties and is always reassuring to me when staying solo)!

Great stay

We spent the weekend at Honey Bear Cottage in Idlwylld, CA. Great location - just a few minutes walk to the town where there are a number of wonderful restaurants, bakeries, shopping, music, etc. Cottage was lovely and as described. Enjoyed coffee on deck in the morning and stargazing in the evening. Hosts Elena and Harold were welcoming and thoughtful and ensured our stay was as comfortable as possible.
