Property details

Welcome to High Country Escape, your peaceful mountain retreat nestled against the national forest in Heber-Overgaard. Whether you're escaping the Phoenix heat, planning a romantic weekend, or exploring the Rim Lakes with your pup, this cozy-yet-spacious two-bedroom cabin is the perfect place to relax and recharge. Inside, you’ll find a warm open-concept layout with leather recliners, a wood-burning stove, and a fully stocked kitchen for cooking in. The fast WiFi makes it easy to stay connected or stream your favorite show. Outside, unwind by the propane fire table, grill up dinner, or watch for wildlife right from the deck — past guests have even spotted wild horses! The fenced backyard is ideal for pets and kids, and a jetted tub awaits after a long day of hiking, exploring, or simply soaking in the silence of the pines. 🌿ADVENTURE AWAITS Come here to get "away-from-it-all" while still being "close-to-everything". Perfect for all seasons, the high-country hometown of Heber-Overgaard offers access to several lakes in the region, numerous off-road trails and quaint small town shops. Enjoy hiking, fishing, and kayaking in the summer, or cozy up by the fire after a day of snow trekking in the winter. . Willow Springs and Woods Canyon Lake are a short drive away plus you don't want to miss the majestic views of the Mogollon Rim with a scenic drive to the Rim Vista Overlook Trail. 🛎️ CONSIDERATIONS We welcome your furry friends! Up to 2 dogs are allowed with a $100 pet fee. Considering this is a home, not a hotel, we kindly ask you to treat the space with care. While we strive to address any issues promptly, please note that there is no on-site staff available 24/7. However, we’re just a message away if you need assistance! To finalize your booking, a separate rental agreement is required. 🧳TRAVEL INSURANCE ADVISORY For a stress-free getaway, we highly recommend purchasing travel insurance—especially during winter months when unexpected weather or illness can disrupt travel plans. Reservations become non-refundable after a certain point, so having coverage ensures you’re protected from last-minute changes due to road closures, flight delays, or unforeseen circumstances. This property has special local compliance requirements which include a signed rental agreement, ID verification, and security deposit. We know security deposits are annoying, so to make it easier on you we have 2 options that you can choose between: Option 1: Damage Waiver ($47) - Have a worry-free stay with coverage for up to $1,500 for accidental damage (spills, breaks, mishaps) with no surprise charges. Just relax and enjoy your stay. Coverage up to 10 nights, +$5/day for longer stays, and provided by a third-party insurance company. Option 2: Security Deposit ($1,000) - Refundable temporary hold that releases after your stay. To make this process easy for you, we use a secure and very simple, app-free platform called Happy Guest. It is not an app, and you do not have to sign up for an account - it's a safe and secure website. It also gives you a guest portal with all the info about the home and all of my favorite local spots. Your guest portal includes advertisements with third-party upgrades that you may want to enhance your stay. These upgrades are optional and include: Early check in - $35/hr Late checkout - $35/hr maximum 2 hours If you have any questions, just message us anytime! Happy to help!

Went for a couple’s getaway in the mountains. Area was beautiful. Had a fenced in yard so our little dogs could run around without getting away. 😊 House was clean and comfortable. Owner was very responsive and friendly. We will come back to this home again!

Very nice. We enjoyed our time. Host was quick to respond with texting. Bed was very comfortable and bathroom was a very good size. Pups were very comfortable and having a fenced yard for them was great.

Overall a good stay. Living room is the main draw here. I do feel it can use a deep cleaning. Seems to be a little bit dusty more than the usual. Everything is functional. Everything is provided. The best thing is the peace and quiet. For sure the best part. I’d say the main bedroom and upstairs is a bit outdated. Felt a little dingy. Along with the bathroom. The “jetted” tub is def outdated and I choose not to use it after all. Main shower downstairs doesn’t have a light inside so the shower is definitely more on the darker side. I really wanted to love the place but I didn’t. It’s ok though and still worth a visit if the price is right. If you do a modern remodel here you’d truly have something special.
