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.

🛎️ 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
