Rockin' R Ranch Lodge--Your Family Reunion Gathering Place

Located in the picturesque small farming and ranching community of Antimony, Utah, the Rockin’ R Ranch is central to many outdoor adventures and can easily accommodate groups of 25 to 170 people. For over 37 years, The Ranch has hosted family reunions, youth groups, and corporate retreats and helped folks from all over the world take a step back in time to enjoy country-life adventures. Bryce Canyon National Park is only 45 minutes from the Ranch; Capitol Reef, 90 minutes; and Zion National Park, 2 hours. The hills, mountains, and canyons that surround the Ranch are filled with dirt roads and trails perfect for ATVing, hiking, and mountain biking. Otter Creek Lake State Park is three miles north of the Ranch and is well known for its great fishing. Bring your boats, kayaks, or jet skis for added lake adventure.

The beautiful and spacious three-story pine lodge engulfs you in western atmosphere. There are 37 guest rooms in the main lodge, and an additional 4 rooms in the nearby Arena Cabin. Our guest rooms are simple, yet comfortable, and all have private bathrooms with showers; and some have a tub and shower combo. Bed linens are provided; you will need to bring your own towels. The base rate includes 12 "inside lodge" guest rooms (3 rooms with one queen bed, 6 rooms with two queen or double beds, and 3 rooms with 1 queen, 1 double, and 1 twin bed--sleeping up to 45 people. Additional rooms--sleeping from 2 to 7 people each--can be added for an extra cost. (Please see the Room Descriptions for more information on the added cost.) In the Lodge there are a total of 77 beds that can sleep up to 142 people. The 4 Arena Cabin rooms each have 6 beds sleeping up to 7 people, for a total sleeping capacity of 170 people at the Rockin' R Ranch. If your group uses all of the rooms, camping in tents on the property will be allowed. If you need more than the 12 rooms included in the basic rate, please message the Ranch Host when you request your reservation to discuss the size of your group and the specific type of rooms you’d like to add. The number of guests in your group cannot exceed the number that can comfortably sleep in the beds of the rooms you have reserved. Guests cannot sleep in areas of the lodge outside of the bedrooms.

There are several gathering areas—large and small--throughout the lodge. As you enter the main gathering area of the lodge, your eyes are drawn to the tree that stands tall, reaching up three stories. Don't forget to look for the owl sitting in its branches. The couches and fireplace make this the perfect meeting place room for programs or talent shows complete with piano. The Conference Room on the second floor also has a piano. Here you'll find several comfortable couches and chairs that are perfect for watching the TV or having a more private gathering. The Game Room has two billiards tables, with a ping pong table in the adjoining room. The game closet has puzzles and board games. The lodge has three floors but does not have an elevator. There are six guest rooms on the first floor for any who are unable to climb the stairs.

The recently remodeled large commercial kitchen comes stocked with everything from pots and pans to plates and utensils. Cooks will enjoy our large gas stovetop and grill--perfect for cooking pancakes or hamburgers--3 convection ovens, extra-large fridge and freezer, large ice maker, sinks, dishwasher, and lots of prep area. The dining rooms seat over 150 people. If you'd prefer to have someone else do the cooking, message the hostess when you request your reservation, and she can arrange for a nearby caterer to cook some or all of the meals for your group.

The lodge sits on 9.6 acres with two sides bordering on the Ranch's alfalfa fields. This is definitely farm and ranch country at its best. There's a large lawn area for games and sports, volleyball grass court, horseshoe court, cement basketball pad, small swimming pond with kayaks, cornhole boards, and large fire pit and picnic tables. The children will enjoy the playground area with swings and slides just for them. We have equipment for soccer, volleyball, whiffle ball, basketball, horseshoes, and cornhole. Whether you want to spend your entire time at the Ranch enjoying your own activities or use the Ranch as a home base to enjoy activities off-site, you’ll enjoy having such a large and beautiful place to comfortably gather. There is a two-night minimum stay, and there are no Sunday arrivals (but you can stay over on Sunday nights). Check in is between 2:00 and 8:00 p.m. Checkout is before 10:00 a.m. Guests are not allowed to bring their dogs or other pets.

The hostess can help arrange (in advance) nearby horseback riding for your group if desired. Whitewater rafting, tubing, and ziplining are available only 40 minutes from the Ranch. In Bryce Canyon National Park you’ll find breathtaking scenery and hikes, ATV tours, horseback riding, and summer night rodeos. The Rockin’ R Ranch really is in the center of it all! Don’t forget to end your evenings looking up at the beautiful night sky. On a clear night, away from the city lights, the stars are out in abundance. It’s an incredible sight you won’t want to miss.

There’s no cell phone service at the Ranch, unless you connect your phone to the wireless internet which is available in the main central area and Conference Room of the lodge but doesn’t spread out to all of the individual guest rooms. Your time at the Ranch is the perfect time to disconnect from your devices and connect with family and friends. Isn’t it about TIME? That’s what the Rockin’ R Ranch is all about. It’s about time with family and friends, time enjoying nature, time seeing rural country you haven’t seen before, and time thoroughly enjoying yourselves.
