My uncle has a cabin in Idyllwild and we visited several years ago -- it's really a lovely place -- sort of like Yosemite Lite (not nearly as scenic as Yosemite, mind you, but with a bit of that feel). I should think it would be a lovely place to live while in lockdown.
A couple of things from our visit that might be relevant: -When we were there (in the summer) it was pretty hot. Not as hot as LA, I imagine, but it was on the uncomfortable side without air conditioning (which we didn't have). It did get pleasantly cooler in the evenings, and there was usually a breeze which also cooled things down. -The cellular service was really spotty and often nonexistent. Though this was several years ago, so it's very possible the cellular service is better now. Anyhow, you'd want to make sure that the place you were staying at had good reliable internet (which I imagine you were going to make sure of in any case)
