HISTORIC & CHARMING 3 ACRES! BRYCE/ZION HOMEPLACE!

This spacious home was perfect for our stay. We had one elderly person in our group and wanted to make sure he could be comfortable while the others were out hiking the parks. The setting is rural with multiple fruit trees, a pond, and outdoor seating areas. The house is an older home that has been well upgraded while retaining the charm of an older homestead. The kitchen is fully equipped, which made it easy to provide our meals at home. And having one bathroom on each level of the house was a big plus. The property was easy to find and the owners were very helpful when we had a question. I highly recommend this property for a relaxing base from which to explore the nearby parks.

The house is very nice and cozy. Clean sheets, towels, and on site washer and dryer. The responses of the owners are very fast and easy (there is an old style pay phone in the kitchen to call the owners if needed without any charge). There is WIFI connection in the house and wireless signal is very weak. Google map point it to a wrong address so don't rely on it, even the one sent by VRBO. The main bathroom was upgraded and very clean. Wish there was one extra vanity for bigger group.

We had a great time staying at this quiet and beautiful place! Kids love the little pond and canoes are available. The location is perfect for visiting nearby national parks, even a day trip to antelope canyon. Definitely will stay here again if we visit the area.

Things we loved: We liked the charm of the old house, slanted floors and all. It had the feel of an historic family home. Great proximity to Bryce and Zions. Not right in the park but close enough to enjoy all the beauty there. We did a tour at the animal sanctuary in Kanab which was close by as well. The owners were responsive to our needs when the power was out for about 6 hours. They brought over a lantern for light and wood for the fireplace so we could stay warm. It was big enough to accommodate 6 adults comfortably. They plowed the driveway so we could get in and out. Wifi worked great. Kitchen has plenty of dishes and pots. Owners were very friendly and personable.

Things we didn't love: Because of the heavy snow, we couldn't do anything at the property. It would be better in summer if you want to do enjoy the lake or outdoor things. The property is right off the main road and very close to another home which the pictures don't show. There was no dishwasher. There is only comfortable seating for 4 people in the living room. The power went out twice which was not the owners fault but made cooking impossible on an electric stove. Cell phones only worked on wifi calling which was disabled during the power outages. Most businesses are closed during the winter in the nearby towns except the grocery store. No place to rent atv's in the area in winter. We did end up driving 90 minutes to Hurricane and had rented machines there. Highly recommend Southern Utah Adventure Center for Razor and atv rental. We spent a whole day at Sand Hollow State Park which was the highlight of the trip. So fun. There was not enough hot water for 6 people to take very short showers.

All in all we had a nice stay at the Homeplace.

Our group of 7 (5 adults, a teenager, and a three-year old) enjoyed the peace and tranquility of The Homeplace. Most mornings we enjoyed a quiet breakfast followed by a half-hour drive to one of the surrounding parks. We went hiking in Zion, climbing and rolling in the sand at Coral Pink Sand Dunes State Park, and one morning just canoeing on the pond. After lunch we read, watched videos, napped, and one day went canyoneering in a slot canyon just outside Orderville.

The Homeplace was clean and well stocked. I would certainly recommend it to anyone looking for a quiet place to unwind. Thank you for a great experience.
