FreeSpirit Cabin| Your Zion National Park Retreat

Experience the magic of Zion National Park at FreeSpirit cabin, perched on the East Rim amidst a forest of Ponderosa, Juniper, and Pinion Pine. This historic 1930s cabin offers a perfect blend of rustic charm and modern comfort, ideal for those seeking to unplug and reconnect with nature. With world-class hiking trails at your doorstep and breathtaking views all around, FreeSpirit cabin provides the ultimate "roughing it easy" getaway in the heart of Utah's spectacular wilderness.

Step into FreeSpirit cabin and feel the weight of the world slip away. This cozy retreat, once nicknamed the "John Wayne cabin," has a rich history that adds to its unique charm. Built in 1931 at the Parry Lodge in Kanab, Utah, it has witnessed the golden age of Western movies and even served as a dressing room during the filming of Clint Eastwood's "The Outlaw Josey Wales."

As you enter, you'll be greeted by a warm, inviting atmosphere that seamlessly blends rustic elements with modern amenities. The living area beckons you to curl up with a good book or enjoy a movie on the Smart TV. The fully equipped kitchen, complete with an electric range, oven, microwave, and coffee maker, allows you to prepare delicious meals after a day of adventures.

The cabin's true magic reveals itself as you step outside. Breathe in the crisp mountain air as you relax in the hammock or unwind on the rustic deck. Watch as the sun paints the sky in brilliant hues, casting long shadows across the rugged landscape. You might spot mule deer grazing nearby or hear the call of wild turkeys echoing through the trees.

As night falls, the lack of light pollution transforms the sky into a glittering canvas of stars. It's the perfect setting for sharing stories around a campfire or simply marveling at the beauty of the universe.

From the cabin, you have direct access to the Zion National Park East Rim trail network. The East Mesa trailhead for Observation Point is just a couple of miles away. We encourage you to explore these trails and immerse yourself in the stunning natural beauty of Zion.

Remember, water is precious in this high-desert environment. The cabin operates on a limited water supply, so we ask guests to conserve where possible. While the tap water is safe for cooking and showering, we recommend bringing bottled water for drinking.

At FreeSpirit cabin, we invite you to disconnect from the daily grind and reconnect with nature, history, and yourself. Whether you're seeking adventure on Zion's trails or a peaceful retreat in the wilderness, our cabin offers the perfect base for your unforgettable Utah experience.

The on line pictures of the interior shots showed a bright and airy rooms. Both rooms in reality were not as shown. During the day, there was no direct sunlight and during the evening, the lighting was very sub par, with only a couple of end table lamps with low wattage bulbs and glaring vintage sixties ceiling lights, one per room. BTW, the cabin is old, and the floors were very uneven.

We had a fantastic time. The cabin was just right. It is situated in a perfect spot for day trips to so many beautiful sites. The cabin was a great refuge after the long days out, and it was just the right size for the two of us. Easy to check in, the owners were very quick to respond to questions, and we had all the info we needed to make the stay easy and enjoyable. If you are on the fence about renting this for a getaway, get off the fence and rent it. You will not regret it.
The Belly of the Dragon, a quick drive from the cabin.
Some scenery on the road to/from the cabin.
Beautiful Bryce Canyon. Just a short drive away, plan on spending at least a full day there.
Sunset from the cabin porch. So peaceful.

Nice clean and pleasant little cabin

We are currently building in the area and needed a place to stay and Alex was great at accommodating with short notice. Free Spirit is a cozy cabin with lots of privacy. I used the BBQ each night and everything was in good working order. We will be back.

Love at first sight!

This place is unreal! The drive up Zion to the location was breathtaking. The cabin itself had everything and more that we could need! We enjoyed every moment. A great central location to all of the hiking. We did a day trip to Bryce Canyon and it was an easy drive. It’s a trip we will always cherish and keep in memory. Thank you!

The Free Spirit cabin was like home away from home. A wonderful, tranquil spot to relax in between visiting the local National and State parks. You can sit on the porch and see the stars and be in one of quietest places you can imagine.

Away from the crowds

Our family stayed for 3 nights while seeing Zion. The cabin is in a secluded spot immersed in nature. Very private and restful. Also close to a beautiful hike to the Overlook which we highly recommend. Very clean and homey. The drive to the cabin from the Zion Visitors center is stunning. It takes a bit longer to get to Zion Visitors Center than if you stay in Springdale, but we didn’t mind cause it was breathtaking. Twice we saw bighorn sheep on the drive.

stay while visiting Zion NP

This was a wonderful home and location for us while visiting Zion. The house as spotless and very comfortable and equipped. It was a 40 min drive to the main entrance of Zion but we were glad to have the space and privacy of a home and the drive was enjoyable. We would be glad to come back.

Delightful refuge in the woods

This is a marvelous historic cabin that has been updated with all the conveniences you could want. The location is remote and private, yet convenient to Zion and other attractions. Spacious, secluded and quiet. Amazing star gazing right off the front porch. Hosts are responsive and gracious. We would definitely return hereQ

Great Private Getaway

I booked this property to have a week hiking in Zion. My husband and I absolutely loved our stay here. The cabin is cute, clean, and has a wonderful outdoor space. We adventured north and south on hwy 89 to hike caves, canyons, and Dino tracks. We spent 2 days in the Zion National Park and 1 day in Bryce Canyon. We also used the amenities at the resort. It was refreshing to jump in the pool after a long hike. Overall, we loved the location, the resort amenities, and the privacy of the small cabin.

Om værten

Vært: Alex and Vanessa Pavlides

Værtens profilbillede
Cabin History: The cabin was built in 1931 at the Parry Lodge in Kanab Utah when the Parry brothers were selling Southern Utah to Hollywood for western movies. While at the Parry Lodge the cabin was nicknamed the John Wayne cabin because of his frequent stays there. In the 1970’s cabin # 1 (John Wayne Cabin) along with a few others were moved from the Parry Lodge to make room for their new two-story building at. The cabin was moved to Angle Canyon (aka Kanab Canyon). While located at Angel Canyon, the cabin was used as one of the dressing rooms during the filming of Clint Eastwood’s movie, The Outlaw Josey Wales. The land and cabins in Angel/Kanab canyon were later purchased by Best Friends Animal Sanctuary. After acquiring the additional land in Angel Canyon, Best Friends decided to build new cabins on site to offer lodging for visitors. In 2003, the owner of the Zion Ponderosa Ranch, was offered to purchase the cabins if he would be able to move them to a new location. Intrigued with the history of the cabins, especially cabin #1—the “John Wayne” cabin, a polygamist group from Colorado City, Utah was contracted to move the cabin. If all went well the plan was to purchase the additional cabins and move them to lots located at the Zion Ponderosa Ranch area. The first cabin was moved to lot D30 on the Ponderosa property. This is where the cabin took on its new name of FreeSpirit Cabin. The successful movement of the cabin prompted the owner of Zion Ponderosa Ranch to go back to Best Friends Animal Sanctuary and purchase the rest of the cabins. This is when he found out that, immediately after moving the first cabin, the group from Colorado City had purchased the remaining cabins with plans to move them to Colorado City. Cabin #1 was the only cabin that made it to Zion’s east rim.

Derfor er dette overnatningssted unikt

YOU ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR YOUR OWN SAFETY – The cabin is in a fairly remote area. Respect for the land, property and rights of others (cabin owners, etc.) must be adhered to. Watch the fires because you are in the forest bordering the National Park. Douse fires with water when not attended. Deer, turkeys, coyotes, rabbits, eagles and variety of birds are present. Respect Nature and all natures creatures that reside on the lands! NO HUNTING! No-See-Ums (midges) can be present from late May through mid to late June and some Mosquitoes from mid to late June through early to mid-July so please prepare accordingly. Although fairly rare to see it is Rattlesnake country so be respectful of snake space if you come in contact with one. Access is via a dirt road and when it rains navigating the ranch can be difficult. No more than 4 guests at a time in FreeSpirit Cabin (without prior approval). As with all things in nature, you are responsible for your own behavior and actions.

Other things to note
FreeSpirit Cabin Information and Tips

• The nearest grocery store to the cabin is in Orderville about 35 minutes away. I recommend picking up groceries prior to coming to the cabin. The Ponderosa Resort 2 miles from the cabin does have a small shop but very limited.
• The deck railing is not as rugged as it appears. Please do not let children hang or play on the railing.
• ****The water heater is only a 5-gallon water heater so hot showers are limited on time. Water is precious in the high-dessert so please be conservative. There is a water saver stop valve on the shower head that will allow you to maintain water temperature while shutting off water flow to soap up.
• WiFi: There is no WiFi at the cabin. Two miles down the road at the Ponderosa Resort there is free WiFi available.
• Cell Phone Service: Cell phone coverage is spotty in Southern Utah. We do get cell phone coverage at the cabin with Verizon and AT&T but not sure about other carriers. Cell data does not work
