About this property

Life is good on the farm

This is more than a place to stay. It is an experience. We have horses, goats, chickens, and often other animals. In the spring, we usually have babies to play with (Baby goats and baby chickens) If you’re into riding horses, send me an inquiry and I will give you the deets. There’s a fire pit so you can melt into the night and roast marshmallows while watching the stars of the Milky Way. Close to State and national parks this rental is well placed. Big and roomy there are three bedrooms with queen beds.there are two twin, roll-out mattresses and an ottoman that pulls out into a twin bed. The kitchen has a stove top, air-fryer toaster oven, plug in griddle, rice cooker and a crockpot, plus all dishes, pots, pans and utensils you could need. Also a Keurig coffee machine. I supply fresh eggs if you want them.
The space
This space is in my daylight basement apartment. It has its own entry. You never have to see anyone. Your privacy is secured as the ceiling is made of steel beams, rebar and cement. There are games, books, TV and a fireplace. We have also added a bonus game room.
Guest access
We are on five acres and you are more than welcome to meander everywhere. There are benches throughout and a tire swing. You are also welcome to say hi to the chickens, horses, ducks and goats. They will all treat you like a rockstar, especially if you bring them food. The wire around the horse pen is hot. So step inside, with the horses to say hi to them. They love carrots and apples. Only 1 or 2 each though please.
Other things to note
There is also a washer and dryer in the space. Yay! New addition!
Guests can enjoy a Smart TV and stay connected with free WiFi. Other standard amenities include a kitchen, a washer/dryer, and 2 bathrooms. Change of towels is available on request.

Amazing country gem!

This has become one of our favorite spots! The setting is beautiful - literally across the road from the Canyon access. :) My children loved visiting the animals every 30 min. we were there, and the rooms were as comfortable as our own home. Rhonda and Bart were very gracious and welcoming, offering tips for the best hikes with kids and making sure we had extra eggs and towels for our large crew. :) We can't wait to come back!

A slice of country heaven

Thank you for a wonderful long weekend!! Everything was BETTER than described and we felt right at home. The beds are super comfortable, very functional kitchen and living area. Convienent location to the kolobs and an easy drive to Cedar city or St George or Zion area. Our favorite part was visiting the chickens, goats, and horses. We can’t wait to come again.

Great stay!

Loved our stay in this quiet little valley near Zion. Even better than the pictures. Great kitchen and living area and even though the game room is under construction, and the kids still loved it! Also, they loved feeding carrots to the goats and the horses! The biggest downside was the distance to Zion, but if you don’t mind the drive, it was a fantastic place to stay.

Awesome Stay!

This spot is so big, cozy, and adorable! It has such a comfy bed, nice shower, and large living space! The animals are all super friendly and were really fun to be around. The host was so friendly and accommodating, greeting us when we arrived and showing us around the place. I would have been perfectly comfortable with asking her for help/additional supplies if we had needed it. Highly recommend, and would stay here again! It was also so nice to be right by the Kolob Canyons entrance; this was a beautiful scenic drive!

Great Ranch experience- but if you are traveling with your dog you may want to think twice

The property was definelty as expected. What a wonderful way to see horses and chickens. The property is underneath the owner who works from home. We had a dog did not realize when we went out to Zion, that she was barking at the free range chickens. We got a texted from the host informing us that we would have to take our dog out during the day because the owner works from home and could not work with the barking. I get it. But we did have to change our trip around to accommodate the owners wishes. We end up having to leave one family member behind each day to watch our dog. Most of the trails around the area do not allow dogs including most of Zion park. So, if you are traveling with a pet, please consider how your dog may respond to free rooming chickens. If you think they may tend to bark and you were not planning on taking them with you for the whole day, you ,may want to recosider staying here. It would have been a perfect place if we had no dog. It was in a perfect location, clean and definelty a range feel. I would have reconsidered if I would have known the expectation was that the dog would have to be with us during the day.

We loved our stay. We loved waking up to the horses and feeding them. We got to hold some baby chickens, which is not an ordinary thing for us. The place was adorable and the atmosphere was so peaceful. It made it worth the fact that it was a drive into Zion. Rhonda was the nicest most gracious host. She fit in very well with our crazy group.

Clean roomy and comfortable

My mother and I stayed for 2 nights while visiting Zion. It was fun to see the horses, chickens and especially the cats who were super friendly! The space was clean and comfortable with lots of blankets to cuddle up with. Rhonda was very responsive and friendly. To enter the home, you have to manually open a garage door and enter the space through a door in the garage. The door that we entered through did not have a deadbolt or any other sort of lock from the inside. Also, when we were first exploring the house, we opened a door inside thinking it was a room and realized it was a staircase up to the owner’s home, which was not able to be locked and secured from our side. The listing was accurate in that it is a basement apartment below the main house. Even though our privacy was respected, I personally prefer a little more feelings of security when I stay somewhere. Other than that, we enjoyed our time. It is very close to Kolob Canyon. I would definitely recommend visiting there! One of our favorite hikes from our trip ended up being an unmarked trail we found at Kolob Canyon. MUCH less crowded than Zion. The home is also close to the highway with easy access to a fairly large town with lots of restaurant options. Although the hens weren’t laying eggs much because of the cold, Rhonda did manage to get 3 for us, which was very nice!

Rhonda and the farm were amazing! We pulled in after dinner on night one and had car issues. Rhonda offered to take someone to town for food and then provided milk, pancakes mix,and syrup to make sure we had breakfast in the morning. Rhonda also provided information on hikes local to her location and places at Bryce and Zion. Rhonda farm was one of the best decisions that we could have made for our trip. Definitely recommend a stay at the farm to relax and take in all of the beauty! We will be coming back!

We were so blessed to find this property for 5 adults and our 3 grandbabies. Rhonda was an amazing host!! she made us feel very welcome and made our stay very special with taking beautiful pictures of our little ones enjoying the farm animals and feeding them too. We enjoyed our spacious home, barbecued on the grill and did smores around the fire pit. We found out near the end of our stay we were just steps away from Kolob Canyons. It was such a beautiful location with little farm friends that we all loved and miss. Thanks for having us Rhonda! You were amazing ! ❤️❤️

I honestly cannot say enough good things about this place and the host. The rental was spacious, clean, cute, and very comfortable. Rhonda and her husband are two of the nicest people we have ever met. The rental is literally across the street from the national park so it is very easy to go for a hike and come right back without having to drive a long way. I would recommend this rental to anyone wanting to visit the area and we hope to visit it again one day!
