Terrible Experience
I’d like to start off by emphasizing that this cabin is beautiful inside and out. We arrived and the neighborhood was not great, but the cabin made up for it. However, this feeling did not last long. Our stay was of three nights. On the second night, we had gone out for food pretty late at night. My fiancée mistakenly left the car keys in the car and the car alarm went off for a few minutes because he had to pop the hood open so that he could disconnect the battery so that the alarm would stop sounding. We tried to do this as quickly as possible as we were aware of how late it was. The following morning, the owner, Jeff, sent me a message essentially threatening to kick us out because we were “honking horns” and doing “car repairs”. He told me his cleaning lady made this complaint because she lived across the street. This, unfortunately, made our stay quite uncomfortable as we were far from home and unsure if we would be able to stay at the cabin for the remainder of our stay. After this message, we basically tiptoed around the cabin worried we would have a complaint. When we left, we made sure leave everything the way we found it so that we would not be an inconvenience again. To our surprise, a few hours after we left, we received a charge request of 250 for “damaged locks” which we in fact, did NOT damage. I then demanded the charge be removed because the locks were not damaged, to which Jeff agreed to remove because he knew they weren’t damaged. Don’t recommend here!

Heber Cabin Getaway
Adorable cabin! Cozy, charming, super clean, smelled great, and every necessity provided. Super quiet neighborhood that was great for relaxing. Loved the coffee bar and how adorable the cabin looked decorated for Christmas! Jeff, the host, was so friendly and had awesome communication. The neighbors across the street looked like they lived in a trash dump but every other aspect of this stay was amazing!

Cabin with everything
Nicely appointed cabin with everything you want for a comfortable stay. The description is accurate and the
there are plenty of linens, towels, and everyday items you want in a kitchen that makes the stay a home away from home. Communication with owner was easy and there were good instructions to make sure we were comfortable. The property has multiple outdoor areas to enjoy time in nature. Heber-Overgaard has many places to eat and relax and the people are very nice. We look forward to returning for a longer stay.

Perfect Cabin Getaway
We greatly enjoyed our stay. The cabin was extremely clean and smelled wonderful when we walked in. The cabin was perfectly stocked with necessary amenities, great parking and security for our trailer and SXS. Loved the special touches and decor. Our only regret was we did not allow enough days in our trip to just relax on the deck and enjoy an evening fire with the provided fire pit. Jeff was easy to contact and communicated with us promptly. We arrived earlier than expected and were pleasantly please that Jeff had offered to let us check in early. If you are in the area, I would definite encourage a stay at the Life is Better in a Cabin!! Thank you so much for your hospitality Jeff!!

Amazing
We absolutely loved this cabin in the woods. It is tucked away in a quiet friendly neighborhood.
If you want to enjoy the outdoor weather, this is the place. It has 3 patio’s and a huge side yard the kids can play and run around.
The cabin is clean and it has everything a home needs and some extras. We enjoyed the neighborhood. Everyone was so friendly when we were taking our walks or they were walking by.
You won’t be disappointed.
