The house was so comfortable and perfect for our family. We loved how close it was to everything. The views are also so gorgeous from very window. We would definitely stay here again!
Communication with the host was excellent - booked the listing as guest and the application did not allow for communication. The owner responded within minutes to give directions and entry code (precise and simple). The home was clean, pantry had what you expected and more. (Coffee, sugar, cooler, extensive cups - plates -mugs-toaster-k cups brewing - ground brewing capability), refrigerator is xlarge, microwave, stove. Spacious living room - the horizon has a view of the mesas that surround Kanab was stunning - the outside decks allow for enjoying the scenery.

About the host
Hosted by Lacey
The Bear Den is more than just a vacation rental—it’s a piece of our family’s history.
This property has been in our family for three generations and was once used as a horse property, with wide open land and a deep connection to the surrounding landscape.
We’ve thoughtfully maintained that sense of space, privacy, and simplicity while creating a comfortable place for guests to relax and experience the beauty of Southern Utah.
Our goal is to offer more than just a place to stay—we want you to feel the quiet, the openness, and the unique character that has made this land special to our family for years.
