The view!

Charming little cottage conveniently located a short drive from Capitol reef national Park. This cottage is equipped with everything you your friends and family would need for a comfortable clean pleasant stay. The owner is an excellent communicator and reached out multiple times to make sure that we were not only happy with the property, but that we were enjoying our stay.

We enjoyed our stay very much. The host was both proactive and responsive. The views are amazing. Breathtaking sunrises. Glorious vistas during the day. Awe-inspiring stars at night. The location is ideal for access to Capitol Reef which has become one of our favorite national parks. The home was clean and well-stocked with nice amenities. For example, we used the French press coffee maker daily. Nice touch. Very good Wi-Fi.The home has a few quirks (What home doesn’t?), though we found them to be more charming than problematic. We would stay here again should we choose to visit this area in the future. Highly recommended.

Cute cottage

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in this cute desert cottage. The kitchen was well equipped with everything we needed for cooking after long days of hiking. We especially enjoyed the beautiful views from the house and star gazing at night. Mia made sure to check in frequently to ensure we had everything we needed for our stay.

Perfect spot, very quiet and private

Mia was fantastic and easy to communicate with, she was such a help. The house is exactly as listed, it worked out great for 2 adult couples. Two similar bedrooms upstairs with the bathroom in between, everyone is equal. The kitchen was stocked with EVERYTHING, living room cozy, and great views out of every window. Out of our four nights, we only had one good for stargazing, but it's PERFECT for it!

Perfect for stargazing

Great location, very close to Capitol Reef. Torrey has restaurants, gas station, etc. If the skies are clear at night, it's perfect for star gazing. Communication with owner is the best we've had for a rental.

About the host

Hosted by Mia Hayes

I’m a schoolteacher and my husband is a civil engineer. We live in Salt Lake City. We love the desert and national parks.

Why they chose this property

We bought this cottage because we love Torrey and all the magnificent national parks in southern Utah. My mother lives there as well! We travel all over the world but Torrey tops our favorites list. We have two adult daughters who adore staying in the cottage. You’ll love it too.

What makes this property unique

The views from every room in the house are unparalleled. Views of snow-capped mountains and red-rock cliffs.
The kitchen is as well equipped as it's possible to be.
