About this property

Escalante Cliff House

The Escalante Cliff House was completed May 2019 and is on 160 private acres overlooking the Escalante River Valley and North Creek River Valley. The nearest structures are the Slot Canyons Inn Bed and Breakfast (breakfast available with a reservation) and the North Creek Grill, both about ¼ mile away. The property is in the heart of the Escalante Grand Staircase National Monument and is 10 minutes from the town of Escalante, Utah.
This is a 2200 sq/ft, 3 bed, 3 bath home. The central living room design is inspired by the circular “Kiva” room of the Ancestral Pueblo Native Americans that previously inhabited the land, and left behind several cliff dwellings, pictographs and petroglyphs in the surrounding area. Half of the Kiva Great Room circle is made up of windows which acts as a passive solar heating system in the winter and gives the room a 180° panorama of the valley below. In the center of the room is a large cylindrical stone fireplace for romantic ambiance or fun group evenings. The house features fiber internet from South Central Communications with 1 gigabit download speeds.
Above the Kiva Great Room and the master bedroom is a 1500sqft roof deck where guests can enjoy 360° views of the surrounding cliffs, river valley, Boulder Mountain, Henry Mountains and Box Death Hollow by day and the brightest star gazing imaginable by night. Come enjoy the newest, most secluded rental home with the best views in Escalante!
With the roof deck, this property would also be incredible as a yoga retreat, wedding venue, corporate retreat, etc... Contact owner for arrangements.
FAQ's
PET POLICY: NO PETS ALLOWED EVER EVER EVER. I've never and I can't and won't make an exception so please don't ask. I have people that rent the house that are deathly allergic to pets and I have to promise them that there has never been a pet in the house. If I find out that you have a pet in the house, I will call the sheriff and have you escorted out of the house. I'm sorry that I have to be so blunt and hard core about this but peoples safety is on the line.
WINTER CONSIDERATIONS: Between Mid November and the end of February there is a possibility of snow on the road up to the house. Even if the road is plowed, it's likely that a 4wd will be needed to get to the house, especially at night. A 4wd is highly recommended during this time.
DISTANCE TO MAJOR AIRPORTS: The house is about 5 hours from either Salt Lake City airport or Las Vegas Airport.

Absolutely beautiful and peaceful setting. The kitchen was well equipped for all cooking needs, the bed was comfortable, plenty of hot water with great pressure and the internet connection was strong and relatively fast. We didn’t have any trouble finding the property at all.

The Cliff House was a great place to stay while in Escalante. It was clean, and bright and sunny inside. Loved the natural light coming in. The circular shape of the living area and kitchen worked well for us. The kitchen was a little shy on implements and equipment. We would rent this one again if in the area!

Stunning house worthy of architectural digest! It was a special treat for us on our tour of the west. We love the family story and history, the amenities and vistas. Definite recommendation for our family and friends traveling to Utah. We especially love our Birds Eye view of the cowboys work the cattle in the valley spread out below the house.

Amazing Views

I could have spent a month here and not get bored! Hiking is close by and if you want to relax you won’t find a better place. The house was spotless and the bed was so comfortable. The rooftop was an additional place to stargaze and relax or enjoy the surrounding views. The temperature was in the 80’s-90’s yet the house stayed nice and cool. I wouldn’t hesitate to stay here again and I would encourage you to stay here too. It will be hard to leave!

Epic Views and Amazing House

Couldn't have asked for a better house. It's quiet and secluded and the views are incredible. From the stargazing from the roof deck to the sunrise from the dining table and back deck, it was perfect. Plenty to do exploring the property and its proximity to town was what we needed. Would stay here again.

Winter Visit

We visited Escalante in late February, right after a snow storm. Gorgeous views from this lovely home. Beds are very comfortable and kitchen is well stocked with whatever cooking items we needed. We enjoyed our visit very much. Be aware that if you come in winter, you will need 4-wheel drive to access the home, but it is well worth the effort.

Stunning home in Escalante!!!

We LOVED our stay in the Escalante Cliff House! The home is designed wonderfully with attention to detail. Nice size rooms, well stocked kitchen. Really enjoyed cooking meals here and watching sunrises and sunsets everyday from the roof deck and back porch. Tons to explore in the area. Very private but short drive to the town of Escalante. Check in was easy and Spencer responded quickly to all our questions. Thank you for opening up your home to allow others to experience! Truly a special place. Can’t wait to come back!!!

Exactly as advertised

An amazing place to stay. Spencer was very responsive. I appreciate that the house is stocked with basic cooking ingredients, like spices, oil, soy sauce, etc., that other guests have left. I find it irritating when I have to buy all that stuff for a short stay knowing both that I am wasting my money because I won’t be able to use it all and that other guests left left behind the same stuff I’m buying and it was thrown out.

Directions and Thank yous

We struggled with the directions a bit in that we did not realize they were so detailed and came up quickly. We would drive after reading one detail and pass the second detail b/c we had driven too far. Does this make sense? Thank you for having an extra propane tank next to the grill for the outdoor fire upstairs. Very Thoughtful. The place was amazing in everyway!!
