About This Home

As of April 2025

Dolly Parton's Former Idyllwild Retreat! If walls could sing, this charming 3-story mountain retreat would be humming a country tune. Recently owned by the one and only Dolly Parton, this home is as full of character as the Queen of Country herself. Nearly every piece of decor was placed by Dolly, making this a rare opportunity to own a home that reflects her warmth, charm, and signature style. Master suite, guest bedroom, and spacious loft that sleeps 5 and was Dolly's favorite spot to write and play her music! Nestled along a peaceful seasonal creek and just a short stroll to town, this private escape offers the perfect mix of tranquility and convenience. Locals still share fond memories of Dolly's time in Idyllwild, where she was known for her kindness and down-to-earth spirit. Designed with chalet-style flair, this home features soaring wood-beamed ceilings, woodsy details, and a spacious deck where you can soak in the forest views. A brand-new roof ensures it's ready for its next chapter, while the serene creekside setting adds to its magic. This is more than a home-it's a piece of music history, a true mountain retreat, and a dream getaway waiting for its next storyteller.
