ROMANTIC ENCHANTED COTTAGE WITH PRIVATE HOT TUB & POOL ACCESS ON PRIVATE RANCH

Imagine driving to a secret hideaway nestled in a deep canyon with a beautiful tree-lined stream running through it - a magical land that borders the west side of majestic Zion National Park. Our enchanting, romantic Cottage is situated on the famous 750 acre Sunset Canyon Ranch conveniently located for adventures in Zion National Park, the North Rim of the Grand Canyon, Lake Powell, Bryce Canyon, Snow Canyon, and even Las Vegas. After a day of exploring our breathtaking country with the hustle and bustle of other tourists, you can look forward to returning to the comfort of your private Shangri-la.

Romantic, cozy, and comfortable! The Cottage is ideal for an amorous getaway or just a rejuvenating, peaceful retreat for two! 850 sq. ft, with living, dining, kitchen, bath, and master bedroom. TV in the bedroom as well as living room. Wood burning fireplace (seasonally) Private patio with bbq, outdoor dining, and year-round hot-tub under the stars. You'll find many amenities in addition to hiking, biking, and exploring Zion Park, including a sport-court for playing pickleball, tennis, or basketball, access to the ranch pool and ping-pong table, catch and release fishing on our pond, and the luxury of getting away to a quiet, peaceful, private domain.

If you don't feel like cooking, enjoy one of the many wonderful restaurants in Virgin, Springdale, LaVerkin, or Hurricane. then escape from the bustling crowds back to your own kingdom.

The west side of Zion National Park, only two minutes by car, is one of the best-kept secrets and is home to some of Zion's most famous hikes, including the Subway, West Rim, and Hop Valley. Here you can also investigate ancient caves with Indian Petroglyphs or discover rare dinosaur tracks. The Park's main entrance in Springdale is only 18 minutes away where shuttles will take you to the many other hikes the Park has to offer, such as Angel's Landing, Weeping Rock, Sinewava, and Emerald Pools. You’ll find terrific shopping and dining in Springdale as well.

For many years we've opened our doors to travelers from all over the world and the telling tale is this: they come back again and again and refer us to their friends and family. Accommodations fill up quickly, so booking early in the season is suggested.

Beautiful little cottage
I really can not say enough great things about this cottage, the location breathtaking, the bed so comfortable, the kitchen had everything we needed and more, the hot tub was an added bonus. Now let’s talk about our hosts, they are two of the kindest friendliest people, Vickie took care of every detail, she recommended hikes on the west rim, restaurant for a birthday dinner, left us a welcome treat and responded to any message that was sent. You can tell that they love to have guests on their property, but they also really respect your privacy as well. If we ever find ourselves in this area again we would absolutely stay here again. 10 out of 10.

Sweet little cottage
Vickie was a wonderful host. We arrived later than expected and she was very accommodating with alternate instructions for check-in. She was very helpful with little hints about exploring the area. The ranch and setting are stunning. Very close to the West entrance to Zion. 30 minutes to Springdale and the South entrance. So many treasures around to explore. The cottage was very cute, super clean and well maintained, and very private. We loved it!!!

Well beyond expectations
It is hard to summarize how impressed we were with Sunset Canyon. Vickie thought of everything and went above and beyond in every way. I rarely use vacation rentals, generally preferring hotels, but the cottage was superbly appointed and had everything we could possibly need and then some. It was sparkling clean and well furnished. The hot tub, grill, sports court, pool, and Vickie's helpful and up-to-date information about the Zion area were all cherries on top. I would not return to the Zion area without staying at Sunset Canyon.

So accommodating and comfortable
My wife and I truly loved our brief stay at this property. The cottage was absolutely charming, comfortable and surrounded by beauty. Vickie was extremely accommodating when our airline set us back half a day and we had to arrive in the middle of the night. Never have we been so grateful to see a warm, comfortable and well lit place waiting for us. Nice little extras throughout the cottage made our time feel very special as did the advice about local hikes that we might not otherwise have known about. Very special place.

The perfect stay!
Pictures didn't do it justice, this property was the coziest, homiest, cottage, and it made our trip to Zion absolutely perfect. The furnishings, incredibly well-stocked kitchen, the views, the patio... We would've loved being there without even going to Zion. But coming "home" to the cottage after a long day of hiking and riding the shuttle was a much-needed respite. We truly felt at home and loved our stay. If we come back to Zion, we'll definitely stay here again! Thank you so much, Vickie!

Premier host and lovely cottage.
The cottage at Sunset Canyon ranch was meticulously clean and totally relaxing. We were warmly greeted by three furry souls upon arrival. Every convenience of a well stocked pantry and refrigerator was offered. The cottage is a refurbished historic bunk house that has a petrified wood fireplace wall. AC/heat was perfect. It is a home away from home. Vickie is a wonderful person and was the best host we ever had in all our vrbo stays. The distance to Zion is only 8-9 miles. Many other hikes and adventures are available if Zion is not a plan. The Davis store in Toquerville was excellent. Thank you Vickie and Henry.

My husband and I stayed in the cottage for 4 nights and we wished we could’ve stayed longer. It’s quiet, comfortable and had everything we needed and then some. You will not be disappointed if you’re looking to get away from the crowds and stay someplace off the grid. The owners really go out of their way to make sure you feel right at home. Lots of hiking to be done in the area as well so you don’t need to go into the main park (Zion).

Property was beautiful, comfortable, & peaceful. It was an easy drive to Springdale & Zion National Park, a lovely oasis to come back to after a busy day of exploring Zion. We would love to stay at this cottage for future vacations, the next time, we will plan a day or two devoted to solely relaxing & enjoying the property & it’s amenities.

Fantastic visit to Zion National Park
We couldn't have asked for a better location, home, or host. Since we were new to Zion, we really had no idea how perfect this location would be. With access to everything on the west side within minutes of the property, we could take our pick of great hikes without the crowds found on the east side of the park. Of course, we did go to the east side of the park as well but coming back to a peaceful, quiet location afforded by Sunset Canyon Ranch was such a pleasure. If you're looking for a peaceful outdoor space for coffee in the mornings and a glass of wine in the evening, with easy access to plenty of outdoor activity in between, look no further.

Idyllic in every way
We were celebrating our 25th anniversary and were looking for a place away from the crowds where we could have some space to enjoy beautiful Zions in a different way. This place was perfect. We arrived at night and pulled up to a beautiful cottage, the lights were on to welcome us warmly. Communication with the owners was easy and Vickie was so accommodating to our needs. Everything was so clean and there was even a snack in he fridge for us to enjoy when we got there. The views out the master bedroom windows were gorgeous, when the sun came up the next morning I couldn’t wait to get outside and explore. We thoroughly enjoyed the private hot tub and went to the Main house for a swim. Needless to say this was the perfect spot for privacy, and it wasn’t far at all to head to Springdell for some hiking and dinner. Absolutely loved our stay here and hope to do it again.

A Charming Cottage in Beautiful South Utah
My wife and I highly recommend this stay. The cottage was all that we could ask for and then some. It was exceptionally charming, comfortable, convenient, and very clean. The hosts were extremely friendly and helpful and provided very detailed instructions about the services in the cabin, attractions and resources in the surrounding area, and even offered to lend us cookware to help with a dish that I wanted to prepare (although this was ultimately unnecessary, as the cottage kitchen was well appointed). Oh, and the hot tub beneath the cliffs at sunset is pure magic. One of the best things about the place. The surrounding area was unimaginably beautiful. The ranch is literally minutes away from Zion National Park, with several great hikes available from Kolob Terrace Rd. The official park entrance is also about half an hour away, and the drive there is absolutely gorgeous. Just make sure not to track the mud from all those trails into the cottage at the end of the day. It’s a no-shoes premises, but with good reason!

Beautiful Ranch Setting
We have stayed in many VRBOs around the country, and this is one of our favorites. You are staying on a beautiful ranch set in a valley surrounded by bluffs. When we arrived at the cottage, we met the owners, Vicky and her husband Hank. Vicky walked us through the home and explained everything in detail. It is an extremely comfortable cottage and very well appointed. We had everything we needed. She lives on a cabin on the ranch so is very close in case we needed anything. We did not need a thing. We stayed 5 nights and hiked in Zion National Park during the day and returned back to the cottage exhausted. There is a hot tub outside the cottage waiting for you if you need it. The cottage is very private and quiet, and we were encouraged to walk anywhere on the ranch. There are several pastures with a couple of horses and a pond. This could not have been a more beautiful setting. If we return to the Zion National Park area, I will definitely rebook this home. The owners are lovely people.

Our 29th Wedding Anniversary and my husband booked this Cottage. Vickie and Hank are lovely hosts, and the Cottage was pristine! So much 'roomier' than we expected. Fireplace and hot tub were the perfect balance at the end of the day (btw, my husband would normally never get in a hot tub!) Great proximity to trails and the park!
