The Atomic AFrame was constructed in 1962 and is an iconic symbol of that space age era. This is a rare and true architectural A-Frame . The great thing about an A-Frame is that feeling of enormous vaulted space inside which seems to mimic the shape of the massive pine trees seen just out side the walls of glass. You are one with nature, yet cozy and protected. The massive beams show off the simple structure that is the A, while the bright interior colors were meant to be in juxtaposition of the browns and greens that are the forest beyond. The furnishings (many of which are available) reflect the look of the era. Located in the desirable Fern Canyon area of Idyllwild, the cabin is moments a way from town and great hiking trails. The extra large deck is perfect for relaxing and watching the squirrels and mountain birds play among the trees. There is also a spa for soaking after an invigorating hike. One bedroom and the bath are downstairs, the second - a sleeping loft - is up a ship-like ladder as was original. The loft features a wall of glass so that time spent here is truly like sleeping in a tree house. There are also an abundance of openable skylights throughout. Downstairs is a large heated/air conditioned basement where the laundry is located as well as an abundance of storage.
