About this property

Rustic isolation near Capitol Reef National Park

Isolated, yet close to amenities. Newly updated home on 6.7 acres just off Highway 24. Only 4 minutes west of Torrey restaurants and other services. Surrounded by open space with spectacular views of Thousand Lake Mountain, Boulder Mountain, and the Henry Mountains. Nearest neighbor is over a mile away! There's a fire pit and charcoal grill when the urge strikes to cook outside, or just to stay warm by a fire under the stars. No neighbors = no lights = great stargazing. Great photos in all directions too!

Bright, open kitchen and dining area with access to the deck. Kitchen was remodeled in 2023 and equipped with new appliances.

Great for kids with lots of space, toys, and a ping pong table in the game room. Older stereo (teach your kids what cassette tapes are!) and new 48" tv plus dvd player. The antique tv and radio in the living room don't work, but can contribute to the history lesson too.

Great bike or ATV rides, nature walks, and trail runs right out the front door (amazing 17 mile road bike loop under the Cockscomb or ~12 mile running loop on the old dump road), and of course Capitol Reef National Park and many many other natural wonders are within easy reach with a short drive. The bike loop was the last 2 laps of Tour of Utah stage in 2016.

Torrey has both seasonal and year-round restaurants within 2 miles. Good pizza, burgers, southwestern food and coffee shop all within a quick drive.

Relax and let our home be your home base for appreciating some of Wayne County's natural wonders.

Loved the location; close to Torrey but also fairly isolated (accessed via dirt road). Great for starry nights, nice deck, great host, plenty of room with good facilities. Stayed here twice so far and enjoyed both times.

A secluded, beautiful mountain retreat that makes the perfect spot from which to launch adventures into nearby Capitol Reef. It offers modern amenities like streaming and an EV charger while also transporting you back to a time when the nearest neighbors were a 20-minute carriage ride away. Two wood-burning stoves ensure warm mornings and nights, and a spacious porch and nearby firepit offer a wonderful way to enjoy a night sky filled with stars. The kitchen is well equipped, the house is very clean, and the air hockey and ping pong tables make for fun times with family or friends. We loved our stay at this wonderful property.

We have a wonderful stay. The house is close to Torrey and Capital Reef, but also secluded. The house is comfortable and cozy and have everything we need. We enjoy watching sunrise from the front of the house, the extensive CD collection and relaxing at the patio.

We loved our stay at this property. The house is older, but comfortable and clean. It was a great set up for families. The kitchen had been renovated and was modern and well stocked if everything we could have needed. The game room in the basement was perfect for kids and for a family movie night. There was ample space to run around outside. Close proximity to Capitol Reef National Park made the location ideal.

Great property for a group of friends or a family. Kitchen is very well appointed and we really appreciated the supply of spices, coffee, utensils, and dinnerware, etc, to make meal preparation easy. Beautiful views from the house and of course, there’s nothing like staying in the red rock canyon country of southern Utah. There’s countless great hikes and mountain biking nearby plus Capital Reef NP only 10 minutes away. The hosts were very responsive and made for an easy comfortable stay.

Capitol Reef Getaway

The property was perfect for our group, an excellent hub for hiking and touring the Capitol Reef area. In the cold weather, we enjoyed the wood stove in the kitchen, all the instructions for everything were spot on. We would certainly stay here again.

Amazing place. This was our second time staying here and we loved it just as much. The host could not be nicer, have better communication and flexibility. They were very accommodating when I messed up on the reservation. The area has so much to offer! We will definitely make this an annual thing if we can!!

Great Getaway Spot!

This property is just what we were looking for. It is centrally located to some beautiful hikes and drives, it had an amazing retro decor (with cassette tapes), and was well stocked. They had food bowls for the furry friends and a great yard for exploring and walking the dogs. Thank you so much for letting us stay here, I am sure we will be back again!
