Outstanding home with unique, beautiful architecture in a spectacular setting. Great features and facilities met the needs of our group of almost 40. Accommodating, considerate, helpful, and extremely responsive host. Multiple refrigerators, ovens, dishwashers, and microwaves made meal.preparation pleasant. Lots of seating capacity and appealing game room. Ample, secure parking.
Our family really enjoyed staying here and enjoying both the activities in the home and in the area. It is a beautiful location with lots of outdoor possibilities.
This house was perfect for our Christmas gathering. Plenty of space for cooking, eating, gathering and entertainment. Everyone enjoyed their stay. If possible we would love to be back next year!
We absolutely loved this house! It had plenty of room for our 30 family members. The views are stunning and the weather was perfect! The house is beautiful and spacious inside and out!
The Pine Valley Lodge is everything we could have asked for to hold our HS Ministry Retreat! ❤️
This is a beautiful, immaculate lodge in a picturesque location. It’s perfect for groups and we absolutely loved it and would use this lodge again. Thank you Makeli & your team for all you did to make our retreat wonderful!
We had a great time and the facilities were perfect for accommodating everyone in our group. The owner was super responsive and we enjoyed the setting and amenities. Highly recommend.
A beautiful home and lodge....spacious and outstanding. We all enjoyed our stay and the beautiful surroundings both inside and out. Lots of space and areas to gather in large or small groups. Beds were comfortable and the many bathrooms made it perfect!
Everybody was in awe of this beautiful lodge, was able to accommidate all who attended. Plenty of things to keep everybody entertained. Highly recommend for large groups, plenty of room for all
Even though Southern Utah was in the middle of a heat wave, and experiencing record temps, our stay at Storyteller's was wonderful. We chose to cut back on some of our outdoor sightseeing, but still had a great time indoors, with all the space and ample things to do at the house and on the property.
Loved the grassy area in the back and the king size beds in every room! Great gathering areas inside as well for big groups. There was so much natural light coming in from the windows that family pictures were easy to get done. We had plenty of bathrooms and the manager was incredibly responsive to any issues we came up against. We would definitely stay again!
This property was more than we imagined! It was so so so beautiful. Pictures didn’t do it justice! We had a large group and it accommodated us tremendously.
Roomy, well furnished with entertainment and games, and the kitchen had all necessary amenities. Large enough outside areas for frisbee and night games. We did some hiking along the River Parkway. well worth the visit. Loved the Pine Valley Ward on Sunday.
Pine Calley Lodge is a beautiful place for a retreat!
This is the second time we have stayed at Pine Valley Lodge. Every detail for a large group has been well planned in the design and furnishings of this large lodge. The home is beautiful, comfortable and the views are spectacular! It’s everything and more that we could have asked for. You’ll love it too!
Thank you Makeli, Susan and your entire team!

We rented this property for a Christmas get-together for us, our children and grandchildren. The place is fabulous! From its very pleasing curb appeal to its interior filled with amazing log walls, high ceilings, fun game room, huge kitchen, and lots of beds and baths, it couldn’t be more perfect! We were even blessed with several inches of snow and were able to sled just a short distance away. If you want a very family friendly place where you can enjoy quiet and spending time with family, this place is for you! Thank you, Tom, for welcoming us into this special place you have created. We loved it!
The property was amazing we were there for three nights. This was a Christmas gift to my 7 children and 18 Grandchildren and everyone of them were there and we had a wonderful time . Weather was really nice for the first part of the trip and then we got a snow storm that dumped 6 inches of snow which we also enjoyed it was beautiful. The lodge and amenities were amazing we would definitely like to stay again. Only reason I gave four stars for cleanliness was windows were somewhat dirty not a deal breaker.
We have a large family and were thrilled to find this location to host a reunion. The weather was pleasant for July and the rooms were ideal for our group. We had all age groups represented. We had young families with babies able to stay upstairs, a main floor room for grandma and grandpa and teens hanging out in the basement with plenty to occupy them. We had organized activities on the lawn and plenty of space in the kitchen and on the deck to spread out during mealtime. The kitchen was well equipped and the great room perfect for visiting. We truly enjoyed our stay and hope to be able to return again next year!
The home, property, and area were absolutely perfect for our family reunion. 18 of us, ages 1-93, had enough space indoors and out to not feel we had to venture anywhere outside the premises. The boys did go fishing a few times at the nearby reservoir, we took short walks, and set up yard games which we all could enjoy.
Communication with the owner was easy and respectful. We always pack so many extras, but this property really had most of what we needed; sharp knives, large pots and pans, and trash bags. A fabulous choice and beautiful location for family photos as well.
Lastly, the home was very clean, the well water was tasty, and there were 2 large refrigerators and 1 drink fridge.. we couldn’t have asked for more!
This was our second time renting the property. All in all we had a great time and would likely rent it again. There were 30 of us and everyone was accommodated comfortably. There was plenty of room for eating meals for our large group. Kitchen appliances and accessories met all our needs, as did the large gas grill on the lower patio.
We loved the grassy area for games and activities, and the huge decks were perfect for games and relaxation ( very nice view of the valley).
The host, Makeli, was excellent to work with. We had one check in issue and one building mechanical issue that he worked quickly to resolve with very positive outcome. The Story Tellers Lodge is a fine facility.
Thank you Makeli.
