About this property

Sleep over the river, and then wake up and fish it!

Rancho Sin Vacas is a beautiful, secluded, 12-acre property on the North Fork of the Duchesne River. Located at the base of the Ashley National Forest in Hanna, Utah. Hanna's population is about 100, luckily, my site is sandwhiched between Navajo Red Sandstone outcroppings. This no traffic light, one gas station town is 78 miles east of Salt Lake City. Has the charm of locals waving at on coming cars and a grocery store that sells milk and horseshoes by the pound. My Ranch house has an updated kitchen complete with a set of new appliances, dining room, a living room with a new leather queen bed sofa sleeper, a full bath, one large bedroom with a queen bed, and a bedroom cantilevered over the river with a queen bed (max occupancy of rented area is 6). The cantilevered room was originally built 40 years ago and is the only legal cantilevered structure over the Duchesne River. Windows are on all sides, with electric heat, not radiant. The front deck of the ranch house is 25 feet from the river and a large fire pit 15 feet from the river. A small campfire area and seating is on the river bank under the cantilevered bedroom...3 feet from the river. I own about 1/4 mile of river frontage, both sides...three to four fishing holes are present, where brown and rainbow trout reside. Guests can fish up and down the Duchesne River for miles, since the State of Utah Department of Resources purchased these rights in the 70's. So fish as long as you want and come back and hang out near the river... the mesmerizing sound of the river and the the bright stars at 6800 feet is spectacular way to unwind for the day. For over 20 years, Rancho Sin Vacas has served as a sandbox for raising my three daughters. It is time to share this gem. Come fish and play on my property on the Duchesne River. Since I am the very first legal Bed and Breakfast in Duchesne County, it is mandatory that I am present on site. Guests get the cantilevered bedroom exclusively, but not the entire ranch house. I have a studio upstairs, not over any of the rented area. But I might spend the night in my 800 square foot , ten tree treehouse aka...Tajmahut.. complete with Murphy bed and fireplace up river... or across the river in my 16 ft by 24 ft wall tent ...aka... Preacher Tent. Every night is different, but all a guest needs to do is text me, and I will get back in a few minutes!
There is a 2 night minimum.

Why they chose this property

Only an hour and a half from Salt Lake City but you feel like a million miles away . At night, enjoy the Stars, 6700 feet above sea level you will see many, and in the daytime ... play or fish the river.. hike the upper canal where there additional rock outcroppings are...

What makes this property unique

Because the previous owner 40 years ago built when local building codes were relaxed, he built a bedroom over the river. This is the only cantilever structure over the river. :-) And the cabin is built one quarter of the present day minimum set back of 100 ft.
The soothing river sound can be heard from every room of the cabin and with six hummingbird feeders the front porch provides entertainment when the Hummers become territorial over particular feeders. Good days there will be 20 Birds hungry and dog fighting. I have had a month of experience with nightly rentals and one thing I did not expect was the guests wanting to feed a llama or alpaca. No problem! :-). With respect of the natural geography, I am fortunate to have the Navaho Sandstone which is rare in Northern Utah, scattered around in my neighborhood...North and West.
