  I have been visiting the Kanab area for nearly 10 years to volunteer at Best Friends and have always stayed in a motel. The motel was closed for the winter so I decided to look into renting a house, and I am so happy that I did. The house is immaculate, comfortable and inviting. Although I am not a cook, I noticed lots of pots, pans and other cooking and baking supplies. There was salad dressing and other condiments in the fridge, along with some wine and other items. The washer and dryer worked well and my sleepover kitty told me she had the best two nights of her life. If I had one wish for it would be more cable TV. I watch much more tv than I should and didn't care for the few local stations and Internet stations offered. But, I managed to survive. I plan to stay here again and highly recommend it, Oh, and my security deposit was returned in less than 24 hours.

  Owner response: Thank you for the review. We are happy to hear you enjoyed our home. We try to anticipate what guests need when stocking our home. We just changed from dish. We had some reception problems and decided the expense just wasn't worth it. We have local channels. Netflix, and Roku which offers so much. It takes some investigation to find everything you like, but I am convinced you would enjoy Roku. You can watch your favorite shows with no commercials. I have the same set up in Minnesota. We are trying to control our expenses where we can, so we can offer lower rates, etc. We do hope you visit again.

  I stayed here with my sister for a week while we visited many places in and around Kanab, and I almost hesitate to say how much we loved this home, for fear it will be booked, the next time we come! It truly made all the difference in the entire vacation, for us. The house is quiet, on a quiet street, yet within walking and driving distance to so many things. We slept soundly every single night and enjoyed having our bedrooms and separate bathrooms, unlike what we would've had if we'd stayed in a motel. We enjoyed the use of the kitchen, which was equipped well beyond our expectations! Cooking our own meals saved us a lot of money for the week, but we did enjoy 2 local restaurants for lunch- Escobar's for delicious, authentic Mexican food, which was full of locals (always a good sign!) and the RockingV where their chef was clearly professionally trained. It was too chilly for us to spend much time on the patio, but the back yard was beautiful nonetheless. I especially appreciated all the little, personal touches, I assume, in tribute to Muriel, with the flower-themed items, some of them, her own personal belongings I think - the cat-related décor, the cowboy hat on the wreath, the needlepoint tissue holder,etc. It really felt like we were staying in someone's home, and not some generic "rental." We appreciated all the information about local attractions on the coffee table, and the TV and cable worked just fine. We didn't bring any Best Friends pets over to stay with us, but they are apparently welcome. I highly recommend this property, and kudos to the owners for being so responsive and completely professional to deal with. Thanks again for such a wonderful, and integral part of our relaxing vacation!

  Owner response: Thank you so much for the review. Muriel loved her home and work very hard to afford it. We Tried to retain Muriel's touch throughout the house. I am so happy you and your sister enjoyed our home. We hope you visit again.

  We just returned from a great trip to Kanab! The drive from Moab to Kanab was just beautiful! We saw Arches, Canyonlands, Bryce, Capital Reef, Zion and the North Rim! We also took in several state parks! After several nights in hotels Muriel's Place was greatly needed! The house was so clean and well kept. The tree in the front yard was solid gold! We had great food--loved Three Bears! I even tried a Buffalo Burger! It was really good! Thanks Mrs. Diane for sharing your home!

  Our stay at "Muriel's Place" was a highlight of our western adventure! Clean, cozy, comfortable and welcoming are words that describe this gem of a property. We were very impressed with the quality of the linens and how well stocked the home was. It is close to the downtown of Kanab which offers all the amenities needed and it was great proximity for our visits to Bryce and Zion. We also promptly received our deposit the day after we left. You will feel like you are visiting a relative's home if you treat yourself to a stay at "Muriel's Place!"

  We loved to stay at this charming house. It was a bit hot inside the house when we arrived, especially in the suite. We were lucky to have the airconditioning and the fans that worked very well. We had more than enough, maybe a few more cooking pots. The location was great, not too far from the supermarkets. I even walked to do some shopping. Unfortunately we did not have enough time to explore Kanab. We only visited Little Hollywood and Bryce Canyon. Even after some rain, Bryce Canyon still is one of the most beautiful canyons. We will recommend this house to our friends.

  Owner response: Thank you for your review and for your second stay with us. I appreciate your feedback on the pots and pans. I have a complete set plus at our home, but maybe a few additional ones are needed. Please visit us again.

  Other than finding the place after dark, everything at this place was as advertised and it was a great place to stay. Kitchen was well equipped but could do better with a few more steel pots. The whole place otherwise was greatly equipped... The garden and the fruit tree added more fun.

  Owner response: Thank you for your review. We are glad to hear you enjoyed our garden. We also appreciate your comment on adding more pots. We always encourage our guests feedback. Come back and visit again!

  My family stayed here while we visited Zion and Bryce National Parks. The home was spacious, clean, and very comfortable. The kids enjoyed having a a backyard after a week on the road. The location was very close to both parks. We would stay here again.

  Muriel's Place was perfect for our 5 person, 3 generation base of operations. Everything was as described in the listing and accompanying photos. The house was very clean, comfortable, well maintained, in a super location and thoughtfully stocked with just about everything we needed for our stay. Restaurants, groceries, service stations, etc. are nearby (we especially enjoyed the barbeque at Spurs). The neighborhood is good; we even had a mystery neighbor who put out and brought in the trash can on pick-up day. The owners were helpful and responsive and we would gladly rent from them again.
