Clean and cozy

We stayed here for one night en route from Bryce Canyon to Capitol Reef. The location was perfect for accessing Capital Reef. It looks unassuming from the outside, but the tiny house was cozy, clean and well appointed, and we were very comfortable.

Wonderful stay!

We loved the access to the property and the amenities inside. The only negative i can say, is the bed was a little too hard for my liking. Other than that it was great. Thank you so much for having us!

National Parks and Skydiving

Beautiful cabin and hostess. I loved every minute there. I look forward to going back and visiting my new friend. I hiked all 5 parks, saw amazing things in Utah, and even tried Skydive Moab. I sat on the back porch with hostess Shelley and just talked and relaxed on the last day. I couldn’t have asked for a better trip.

Cute, comfortable little cottage, and Sarah & Shelly were excellent hosts! We were in the area for a music festival, and this was the perfect, peaceful respite away from the crowds, after the shows. And it is only about a 20 minute drive to the Capitol Reef National Park. So, of course, this entire area is just stunning! Would absolutely recommend staying here.

A gem of a find!

Little house was absolutely perfect for the two of us. Immaculate and very tastefully decorated and furnished. All needed amenities provided...and then some. Access to private hot tub a definite bonus. Proximity to Capitol Reef was great as it allowed us to be out of the " hustle and bustle" of the tourist areas. Couldn't have asked for a better place to spend a couple of nites. Would stay again for sure.

Quiet, relaxing, & a perfect weekend getaway spot

Shelly was amazing. She gave us our privacy but on check in let us feel welcome and assured us to contact her if we had any issues or questions. Very clean place and relaxing, it’s the perfect weekend getaway and very close to Capital Reef and had all the amenities you would need.
