Our two-bedroom home is perfect for up to 6 guests, be it young professionals, a group of friends or families. Urban Cabin has 2 deluxe bedrooms, a bath, a living area, a kitchen and a large backyard. A flat screen TV with Netflix and Cable are provided for your entertainment.
The Space:
Urban Cabin is perfect for a stay if you’re in town to attend a convention, see your kids off to University of Utah OR even if you’re visiting them there! Perhaps you’re on a vacation with family/friends to get in some skiing. Our location places you within 5 minutes of Downtown and the University of Utah and moreover, gives you world class skiing at a convenient 20 to 30 mile drive to the Utah Mountains.
The rental has a master bedroom and a guest bedroom, both furnished with queen sized beds. Our spacious living area includes two sleeper sofas to accommodate extra guests. Each bed has been carefully selected with comfort in mind and accessorized with luxury bedding.
Free WiFi, Cable and Netflix keeps you connected and entertained!
There’s our equipped kitchen should you want to cook your meals. However, if eating out is something you look forward to – and this being in a prime location - there are more than several restaurants just a few minutes away.
***** BREAKFAST*****
Our kitchen comes with the convenience of all the breakfast basics to get you off to a good start during your stay with us. Make yourself a cup of coffee, a refreshing glass of juice, and toss up a couple of eggs with your toast. Pancakes? Waffles? You’ll find the convenience of having them all within reach.
Keyless entry into the home relieves you of the inconvenience of keeping track of keys. A customized, easy- to- remember code will be provided specifically for your group.
Urban Cabin gives you every advantage of living in a prime spot (everything being a 5 minute drive away) and the luxury of chic and comfort. While the adventurous hit the slopes, the others can head Downtown to shop, eat and explore Temple Square. Is that convenient or what!
Guest Access:
If you are a larger group, we also offer additional accommodation at two of our other rentals – both less than 10 minutes away by car. 12 guests more can be accommodated if all units are available. If there are a few more (and they don’t mind sleeping on couches) we’re happy to accommodate them too!
Check out our floor plan to get a better sense of our property. It puts you right on the spot. ☺
Interaction with Guests:
We’re Jonah and Carmen, and we love to travel!
Not very long ago, we followed our impulses and bought one way tickets to Bali. The next few years were unforgettable! We travelled across South East Asia, Mexico, Central America and Peru. A lot of our stays were at vacation rentals and boutique hotels, giving us the advantage of knowing what goes into a comfortable stay (especially as we were really picky guests!)
(Our experiences are chronicled here: hereandtherewithoutacare)
We took advantage of our experience as guests across the globe and started our first vacation rental in Peru in 2010 (so yes, we’ve put a few years in!).
But more recently, we’ve been focusing on short term rentals in the Salt Lake City area. The success of managing our own rental properties has brought in requests from other owners to manage theirs as well.
The comfort of our guests is paramount to Jonah and me. To make everything from booking the rental to your actual stay here, we have made the process hassle free - from an easy check in/check out, comfortable beds, well equipped kitchens, efficient Wi-Fi, to Netflix for your entertainment.
And, oh yes, so you have an affordable stay!
We love getting to know our guests when possible and we’re on hand to chat and let you know about attractions in the area. Just give us a shout. ☺
We SO look forward to hearing from you!

Additional Fees
Fee for bringing pets: $200
I, Carmen, suffer from really bad allergies and many times I had to use my EPIPEN when my asthma rescue inhaler doesn’t open my lungs. If you know somebody with really bad allergies you know what I’m talking about. So for respect to allergic people, we ask you to not bring your pets into our property.
We advertise as a pet-free, allergy-friendly vacation rental and it takes a certified asthma and allergy cleaning company to get rid of pet hair and dander.
There are many hosts that welcome pets. If you plan on traveling with your pet, please look for another property. I don’t want to cancel your reservation and charge you a $200 fee to hire a professional allergy cleaning company.
Fee for smoking inside the house: $250 (fee goes towards cleaning carpets, drapes, bedding and other fabrics where smoke was trapped). Includes use of vaping or e-cigarettes.
Fee for unauthorized guests: $10/per night per person
We will charge the credit card on file an additional $10/per night per person for every unauthorized guest. You should have seen this fee if you entered the right amount of guests before booking our place.
Fee for not following check-out instructions: $25 per extra hour of labor.
The cleaning fee charged for this property covers 4 hours of cleaning. It also includes the cost of professional laundry service and cleaning supplies. So please be respectful of our home and don’t take this personal. We care about you our guest, as much as we care about our housekeepers, without them we wouldn’t be able to host you. Thanks so much for your understanding.
