Incredibly beautiful property and the barn was perfect for our family of four. Extremely clean inside and out. We all loved the friendliness of the host and their dog and cats. Perfect location to access Bryce and Red Canyon. Would definitely stay there again!!

Great location near Bryce Canyon! We enjoyed being on the ranch, star gazing, and enjoying the Jessie (very friendly Labrador Retriever. The cats and horses were also fun. Watched the field above and saw a Pronghorn grazing. My daughter and I thoroughly enjoyed our stay!

Thank you so much for your review! We are so happy you enjoyed your stay, and would love to host you again in the future!
Absolutely beautiful setting! The place was pretty small but clean and cozy. The owners also live on the property and were incredibly nice and so welcoming. Jan even sent over homemade zucchini bread for us to enjoy. We loved the place....would definitely recommend.
The views from this property are amazing! The owners/hosts couldn't be nicer people.
We were welcomed with friendly smiles and cowboy cookies. This is a very well maitained and clean property. We hope to return!
Beautiful setting. Loved eating out on the porch enjoying the view. Inside was clean and cozy. Really a perfect place to stay 20 minutes from Bryce Canyon NP. Thanks
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at The Barn. The hosts were very hospitable, and friendly. The homemade cookies were a nice surprise, and so good! The location was super handy for our trips to Bryce Canyon. We bought groceries at a market in nearby Panguitch and fixed breakfast and dinner in the kitchenette. We had such a lovely time!
Wonderful rural location that is convenient to Bryce, but relaxed and away from the crowds. The compact cabin was perfect for a pair of grandparents with school-age grandchild, and we cooked almost all our meals there. While the grandson enjoyed Bryce, what he talks about most to his parents is the experiences at the Barn: checking out the chickens, playing with the dog and cats, and fishing and skipping stones in the pond. It was great to get to share this ranch experience with him. The host was welcoming and very responsive to our few questions; made us feel like visiting friends. Many thanks for a terrific stay!

Staying here is “good for the soul.” It’s quiet, the scenery is beautiful, and the stargazing was incredible. Jesse and Cali, the owners dog and cat also paid us a few visits which made our days more special. We were about 10 minutes from a grocery store and we were able to cook and eat out on the cabin porch and enjoy the view.
The cabin was as described and everything was clean and comfortable. We enjoyed this place and hope to come back soon! Also, Bryce is a short drive away! Do yourself a favor and book it!
Perfect central location for our multi-generational trip to southern Utah to view the eclipse, attend a star gazing class in Bryce City, plus easy access to Bryce Canyon and Zion National Park. Our hosts went out of their way to accommodate our group and to make us feel comfortable. A big thank you Jerry and Jan for the extra effort to make our trip a success!

Thank you so much for your review, Sheila! We absolutely loved hosting you, and hope you can stay with us again in the future!
This chic, rustic barn is just as advertised & in a very picturesque setting within 20-25 minutes of Bryce. It was very clean & comfortable. The bedroom (1 queen & 2 twins) is on the 2nd floor & bathroom is on the 1st floor. There are some wall hooks downstairs for clothes but no closets (we made due -- not a big deal).

Thanks so much for your review! We are so happy you enjoyed our vacation home!
We had a wonderful stay at the Barn. The place is cozy and quaint but suited the needs of our family of four just perfect. The decor of the Barn is fantastic. Coffee on the porch in the morning and star gazing at night was spectacular. Nice easy drive to Bryce Canyon and Zion National Park’s. The owners are super friendly and even left us cookies! A definite bonus was meeting their puppy Jesse. Would highly recommend.
We had an absolutely wonderful 2-night stay at the Barn in early August. It was impeccably clean, which is super important to us - we didn't see one cobweb or bug while we were there. The space is beautifully decorated, the beds very comfortable, and we loved taking our meals on the porch looking out over the landscape and far off cliffs. The quiet was blissful. And being only 25 minutes from Bryce, the location was perfect for us. We got up both mornings while it was still dark and drove over to watch the sunrise over the hoodoos. Highly recommend that! And most highly recommend this wonderful place.

We had an absolutely wonderful stay at this remote cabin/barn! The views were breathtaking, and we couldn't get enough of the peaceful, cozy atmosphere. The cabin was spotless—extremely clean and thoughtfully set up for comfort. Our hosts were incredibly accommodating and friendly, making us feel right at home.We loved the animals on the property, especially the horses and Jesse, the cutest dog who made our mornings extra special. The location was perfect for our adventures to Bryce Canyon and Zion—so close yet tucked away enough to enjoy some quiet time.We highly recommend this place and will definitely be coming back! A perfect spot for relaxation and exploration.

Thank you so much for your review! It means the world to us. We are so happy you enjoyed your stay, and hope to see you again in the future!
Property was beautiful. Sunrise was like nothing else. Perfect for our family of 4. Very close to Red Canyon trails, horseback riding, and Bryce Canyon. Thanks!
The Barn was amazing! Loved the quite farm, with the cows, horses, and chickens. The Barn was very clean, and the owners were great. Only a short drive to Bryce Canyon. Loved our stay there.
Well Mom, if I was I sure hope it was this Barn. The perfect place to relax and unwind after a day with the Hoodoos in Bryce Canyon National Park. We would leave the crowds behind and enjoy our dinner on the front porch while taking in a fantastic panoramic view. Our hostess and her extremely well mannered Labrador welcomed us with home maid cookies and sent us on our was with a tasty mini loaf of zucchini bread. The “Barn” is very clean, well equipped and wonderfully decorated with Southwestern art and Native American artifacts. Don’t miss the stars and the sunrise creeping over the mountains!
This cozy cabin is approximately a 25 minute drive from the entrance of Bruce Canyon. Located on a large ranch property, the cabin is perfect for a short stay for two adults or a small family. Star gazing and Mountain View’s are spectacular.
The kitchen is reasonably appointed and it was easy to make meals for the park and evenings. There is a cooktop and grill but there is not an oven. The house is clean, nicely decorated, and comfortable.
I’m would highly recommend this property for your stay at Bruce Canyon.
We could not be happier with our experience staying at the Barn! What a beautiful, peaceful location to put our feet up at the end of a long day of hiking in nearby Bryce Canyon. Not only is the home sparkling clean, but it is also beautifully decorated and very well-appointed with everything you need to make your stay comfortable. We are a family of 4, and it was just the right size for our 2 night stay. We also enjoyed exploring the beauty of the ranch (horses and chickens) and star-gazing at night under some of the most spectacular dark skies imaginable! The owners are so very sweet And kind, and were so helpful to us when we had to quickly find a tire repair for our rental car. This is truly a sweet little home away from home and we will be sure to return!
Lovely cabin. The views from the deck were just great.
Only complaint was the sofa bed. Really uncomfortable. So much so 1 person slept just on the sofa.
