Hey there! So, yeah, my name’s Chanelle, and this is my husband John—we’re the Stirling’s. We’ve got our 10-year-old son with us too, and man, we just love our little slice of heaven out here in Loa, Utah.
We actually ended up here kind of by accident back in 2019. We came out from Salt Lake City to do some tiling work on a hotel, and we totally fell in love with the whole county—the views, the quiet, everything. After a while, we found this place that just felt right, and we made it our home. It was supposed to be our retirement spot someday, but life had other plans, and honestly, we’re glad it worked out this way—we’re living it now instead!
What we love most about being here is all the stuff we can do right around us. We’re big into hunting, boating, fishing, tearing it up on the RZRs… and honestly, just the peace and quiet is unbeatable. No crowds, no noise—just wide-open space, red rocks, and starry nights that make you feel small in the best way.
We still travel a ton too, though. We’ll hop down to Arizona, hit Vegas for a quick getaway, or head out to California. And then there’s our house in Costa Rica—that’s our real escape. We love scuba diving and deep-sea stuff there; it’s the ultimate way to relax and recharge after all the Utah adventures.
It’s funny how things turn out—started as a job, turned into our whole life. But we wouldn’t trade it. Our family’s out here making memories every day, and it’s pretty darn perfect. 😊
