This is a really nice house in a wonderful location. We very much enjoyed our stay. It is not well stocked (the coffee pot didn't work), so plan accordingly.

We really enjoyed our stay at the Canyon House. Was exactly what we were looking for. House is in such a beautiful setting. Well stocked. Loved our evening fires. Had amazing meals at Hells Backbone Grill and Sweetwater Kitchen. Kiva Koffeehouse was excellent also. Hikes, road trips and stars at night. Highly recommend!! Thanks for sharing your home.

The view of the night sky was excellent. It was the location that caught my attention. Definitely off the beaten path. Private. Eating dinner on the porch was my favorite. Comfortable beds, well stocked kitchen. I would love to spend a week there.

Amazing place

It's hard to imagine a better location for a vacation rental. This was our second time staying here and we hope to be back again. The house and location are unique and memorable--it feels like you're camping in your own corner of canyon country, but with all the comforts of a modern home. If you can stay here, do!

Absolutely beautiful home and the location was amazing. Our view from the dining table at breakfast set such a positive mood for the rest of our day and star gazing at night was such a treat to us city dwellers! The home itself had beautiful touches of stone and tile which added to a comfortable esthetic stay. We loved it! A nice added feature is the close proximity to Kiva Coffee!! We loved it.
