The Space:
**Important** To be able to access this property during the Winter/Skiing months, a 4 Wheel Drive vehicle is essential.

Escape the hustle and bustle of daily life for a while by staying at our Aspen Tops Cabin in the Timber Lake community near Heber City, Utah.
The cabin and its location offers you solitude and relaxation, the opportunity to experience the great outdoors, as well as being extremely close to nature.

You enter into a beautifully decorated living room, looking straight on to a large open fireplace which is open to the living room and kitchen, it is a full kitchen including a laundry area, a downstairs bathroom, with a dining area situated under the window in the living room.

There is a spiral staircase leading up to the loft area. where you will find three queen size beds, (there are no segregated bedrooms), plus a pellet stove for if you need extra heat. Downstairs in the living room there is also a sleeper sofa.

The unit has a Smart TV that can be used to stream any streaming company you have an account with, eg, Roku, Netflix, Disney, Hulu, etc. There is also an antenna installed to allow tenants to watch local channels, and the internet network is connected and has great reception.
There is free parking on the upper driveway that fits two smaller cars, or one larger SUV or truck, a tighter fit but works.

There are many things to do within a 30 miles radius of the cabin including some of the major skiing destinations such as Park City, Sundance, Snowbird etc., so it's very convenient for those looking for winter activities like, skiing, sledging, snowmobiling, tubing etc., and then in the summer months its offer several activities like Brown Trout fishing, river rafting, and tubing on the Provo River.

There is a small rowboat for rent that can be used in Jones Lake, just southwest of Witt’s Lake which is the large private lake you saw driving in, (we do not have permission to fish on Witt’s Lake) and so much more.

Guest Access:
*IMPORTANT* To be able to access this property during the Winter/Skiing months, a 4 WHEEL DRIVE Car is essential, sometimes snow chains are needed too! This is mandatory by the Timber Lakes Community. Roads are plowed regularly.

Your check in information and keypad code will be sent to your in your App messaging the day before you are due to arrive.

The Neighborhood:
The neighborhood holds everything one could imagine from lakes (several) to thousands of Aspens, Pines, Scrub Oak and wildflowers to lots of hiking, ATV and Snowmobile trails. Not to mention the occasional Moose, Mule Deer, Sandhill Crane, Mountain Lions, Marmot, skunks, Pot Gut, Pack Rat, Squirrels, Chipmunks and many other species of birds and other mammals. Please drive the speed limit of 35 mph throughout the community to keep the animals, yourselves, and your vehicles safe.

This is the perfect spot for a fun relaxing mountain retreat. There are deer ticks in the Summer which you will want to watch out for. Please plan to bring 'Deet' to wash your clothes with. This will help, but be sure to thoroughly check all bodies, especially children for ticks after they explore the trails and acreage this property has to offer.

Getting Around:
The only entrance and exit is via the Guard Shack and Lake Creek Rd. This is truly mountain living and the elements can make it hard to travel in and out of the cabin at times. Please also be advised that there are many species of wildlife crossing the roads all the time from Moose, Mule Deer and Mountain Lions to Pot Guts, Marmots and Skunks.

Some residents and guard's have had poor experiences with disrespectful and unruly guests and they might not respond very kindly if you tell them you are Airbnb, VRBO or other short term rental guests, so it's best to just let them know you're friends of the owners (The Healey's) and you won't have any trouble.

Other Things to Note:
The owners reserve the right to have security cameras installed on the exterior walls of some of the homes pointing away to watch properties.

Interaction with Guests:
We won't be available during your stay, but do have boots on the ground for emergencies between 9am and 5pm. Any after hours calls will require an emergency fee of $50. If it's not an emergency, please wait until operating hours.

Great for a getaway!

We had a wonderful time here and really enjoyed this fun cabin. It’s in a beautiful location! My wife and I were able to escape the heat of the SLC valley, and life and work for a few days. The hosts were great and responsive too.

Cabin in a beautiful location

Staying in the mountain retreat cabin was amazing! I was there for the trees changing to fall colors and saw a bull moose from my bed. The cabin was missing a few house-hold necessities but that's mountain living.

Darling Cabin

We really enjoyed our stay at Aspen Tops. The cabin was darling and had everything we needed. The Timber Lakes area is a beautiful retreat, and we loved sitting on the balcony to soak up the views. The cabin is nestled into the side of a slope, so there wasn’t a whole lot of yard that was good play space for our children, but it made a good base for seeking out other rec spots.

Wonderful Mountain Property

What a cozy, comfortable cabin to visit! The neighborhood is remote enough to feel like you're deep in the woods, but close enough to civilization to make it easy to run into town for dinner and fun. The cabin has tons of amenities, and we were able to relax, and cook, and sleep in comfort the whole time. There are some unpaved roads around the area, but I was able to safely and easily make it to the property in my little Honda HRV in August. The outdoors are beautiful, and the woods were full of deer and rabbits and lots of fun wildlife to enjoy. This was a great place to stay!

Wonderful cozy stay

My son and his new wife stayed at this charming cabin for their honeymoon. The property was so cozy and the views of the fall leaves were incredible. They had a fun selection of records and a record player available. My son noticed that one of the albums the host had contained their wedding song and contacted the host to ask if he could buy it from them as a souvenir. The host was incredibly gracious and gifted it to them as a wedding gift. What a fabulous act of customer service that made their stay all the more special. Thanks so much!

Cute and comfy

The property is great and cozy. A little difficult to maneuver in the dark, as the stairs could use some repair work, a couple are damaged and not super safe. Loved the stay and the host is very helpful and communicates well. We enjoyed the stay very much and would recommend this property to others.
