About this property

Storybook Mt Lemmon Log Cabin

Beautiful spacious storybook log cabin off Carter Canyon Rd, which has year round access. This is a true Log Cabin with a touch of luxury throughout with easy access & ample space to park 3 or 4 cars on the lower portion of the lot and space for 2 more cars to access the middle level main floor of the cabin “weather depending” off Miami Street. There are two full baths and two spacious bedrooms with King size beds plus a very large loft that has two bunk beds & a private balcony. Middle level main floor is an open floor plan with smart TV and limited Handicap access to that floor only from Miami Street unless there is snow present. It also has the master bedroom located on that floor with a smart TV. The bottom floor family room has Large smart TV with a full bath and a large bedroom with a smart TV, King size Bed and a washer/dryer room. Downstairs has separate entrance that is used as the main entrance off of Carter Rd. There is convenient parking on our lot next to the cabin for 3 or 4 cars to park. The cabin is located within walking distance to the Cookie Cabin, General Store, Saw Mill Restaurant and multiple trails. I look forward to you booking and working with you so you and your family have a memorable vacation getaway in the mountains of Summerhaven.

*** Directions: Drive through the town of Summerhaven and take your first right after the Cookie Cabin on Carter Canyon and follow the road over the hill to the left. You will see our cabin on the left shortly after you pass Miami Street. Parking is the big flat area just before our cabin.

*** Warning this cabin is located on the top of a mountain and some cell providers may have limited coverage. Please make sure you know how to turn on your Internet WIFI calling through your phone and connect it to the wireless network at the cabin for reliable phone service during your stay.

***Warning this cabin is located at 8k elevation. If you book in the wintertime plan on having access to a vehicle with 4x4 and chains to access the property during snowy conditions.

Accommodating and Convenient

We have rented this property a couple of times for our construction crew working at the Fire Station at Mt. Lemmon. The location is convenient and the property is able to accomodate the heavy duty work trucks that our employees drive. It's spacious and comfortable. We will continue to rent as needed during the duration of our project. Owner is very accomodating allowing early check in after a days work. Thank you!

Home Away From Home

Great place to stay while working on the construction site at the Mt. Lemmon Fire Station. The home had all the basic amenities to make us feel at home while away from home. Beds were comfortable, night were quiet, property was clean and tidy. Highly recommend for business or pleasure!

Vacation Trip

The property was as advertised. We love both access points to the cabin front and back parking spots. The three floor allowed for tons of space, however the cleanliness of the third floor was not up to standard as there was old orange peels under a cabinet the kids found. Overall, great stay the host provided plenty of amenities for us to use if needed. Had no issues with electricity going out.

The Best Getaway

We LOVED staying here! This was one of the cleanest and most well-kept places we have stayed in. Everything was so well stocked! Our daughter loved the loft and Pac-Man was a huge hit. The board games, VHS and DVD selection took us back to our childhood. Such a nice variety of things for our daughter and us to enjoy. The host was very quick to respond and kept me informed of Mt.Lemmon road issues prior to our arrival. The location was on a quiet street, only a quick walk into town. The Sawmill was our favorite lunch spot and the General Store has amazing fudge! We definitely will stay here again. Thanks for the amazing accomodations!

Danny's birthday

Danny's birthday last year we went camping and got rained out while on the mountain. This year we went with The Storybook Cabin and our experience meet and exceeded all of our expectations! This is a WONDERFUL property! There are 14 in our party ranging from ages 76 to 1yr! The kids love the upstairs loft with games, grandpa loved easy accses to the kitchen, and all of us loved the multiple decks. We had our own space along with space for our entire family. Morning hike with my grandson was so special. I would and will hughly reccomend this to freinds and family. Thank you for making this a birthday filled with loving memeories. Danny will remember his whole life. ☆☆☆☆☆

Mt. Lemmon cabin

We did not spend too much time in the cabin other than sleeping. The front entrance was was a bit hard leading up to the house. We had a person with us using a walker. The back deck was very small and not well kept up. Inside was clean and and overall met our needs. The host was attentive which was important.

Great relief from the heat of the valley

My wife and kids are Tucsonans. I am a native Tucsonan. We had family visiting from South Texas and thought it would be nice to get away from the heat. This was a great idea and a great cabin for it. We enjoyed the cabin and will likely use it again.

About the host

Hosted by Daniel Reichardt

Host profile image
I'm a Licensed Realtor and designated Broker of Genesis Real Estate & Management in Tucson AZ. I'm married with two daughters. We also own a home in Pinetop AZ that we VRBO out too so we have learned over the years what's needed to operate a successful vacation rental residence.

Why they chose this property

We bought this specific cabin after several years of searching for an "all year access cabin" with easy access and space for plenty of cars to park. We also wanted a cabin with a true log home construction.

What makes this property unique

This cabin is unique due to its easy access and even limited access for handicap to the main floor from Miami Street "weather depending" to the main floor of the cabin that includes the Master bedroom.
