OTHER THINGS TO NOTE:
We strive to disclose everything about this home so that each guest can have accurate expectations. Below is a list of unique and unusual aspects of the property:
Upstairs Sauna
There is an enclosed sauna upstairs, located in the hallway outside the master bedroom. It’s a great amenity for relaxation.
Water
Our home boasts incredible-tasting water from our own well. It's cold and refreshing, and we believe it's some of the best water we've ever tasted. We have the largest well pump available to provide maximum water pressure. Running two showers simultaneously may result in a slight decrease in water pressure, but the well water's quality makes up for it.
Wildlife
You might often see deer and occasionally elk around the property. In the 8 years we've lived here, we have never had visits from predators such as mountain lions or bears. Occasionally, raccoons and skunks may come around if there’s food left outside.
Bugs and Pests
• The house is treated monthly for pests both inside and outside. During the summer, particularly after a few days of rain, there may be some mosquitoes. The proximity to the lake means there are almost always a few mosquitoes around during the warm months, but nothing that has ever caused significant problems at our house.
• Each fall, there is a large hatch of box elder bugs in the Heber Valley, typically starting in early October and lasting through most of November. They don’t bite but can be a nuisance. No amount of pest control can keep these bugs away if doors are left open. They are not dangerous but can be annoying for about 6 weeks. We see a few throughout the summer, but the big hatch comes every fall.
Wi-Fi:
Due to the location of the home, Utah Broadband is the only local internet service available. It’s decent—I worked from home for the last 6 years using it—but it’s not as fast as fiber or cable. DSL is not an option for us. We ran multiple TVs at once and I made countless Zoom calls using Utah Broadband. Currently, download speeds test at 50 Mbps and upload speed at 8 Mbps. Occasionally, speeds may slow, and a call to Utah Broadband usually resolves this. Please let me know if you have any issues with the internet.
HVAC
The heater runs on propane and heats the home very quickly. We have the largest A/C unit that the furnace can handle. It cools the house well but cannot run nonstop or it will freeze. We typically set the thermostat at 74°F; during the summer, it will kick on around noon. We let it run for 3-4 hours, turn it off for about 45 minutes, and then turn it back on. Heber is consistently hot in July and early August, so you’ll need it. There is a portable A/C unit upstairs because that area of the house stays warmer. It works very well and is needed only on really hot days.
Busy Road
The house is located next to a busy road. When we considered buying this house, we contemplated whether we would be comfortable living next to a busy road. The trade-off was an incredible view. We decided it was worth it and bought the home in 2015. One of the first improvements we made was replacing the older windows with new ones that greatly reduce the road noise inside the house. It made a tremendous difference, and you will find it much quieter inside. Despite the busy road, we felt fairly secluded in this home. It was nice not having close neighbors, and although there are constantly cars driving past, we always felt we had a lot of privacy.
We hope these details help you better understand our home and make your stay more enjoyable. If you have any questions or need further information, please don’t hesitate to reach out.
