Family Vacation to visit Bryce/Zion National Parks

The house and apartments, above the garage, provided 11 bedrooms for my group of 26. Great gathering spaces in the LARGE home, but we felt secluded in the quiet neighborhood. Lots of outdoor space with a large patio and plenty of parking.

Family Vacation

Lovely large home with more than enough room for our family of 17 to gather from Virginia, Oregon and Canada for a week. Located within and hour of Bryce and Zion. Lots if other neat hikes, caves and museums nearby. Very clean, well stocked, comfy beds and furniture. Two refrigerators, large freezer and ice machine. Owner open to suggestions for some needed repairs. Would definitely stay again.

Remote and relaxing

No central air conditioning, just 3 room units in a very large house, thus we were grateful for the cool (55°) nights. Alton is remote. Closest retail is miles away and very expensive. We purchased groceries in Kanab on the way in at reasonable prices. The family truly enjoyed the golf setup, grassy yard, fire pit and large, comfortable rooms.

WE LOVE IT!

We had a wonderful week at Alton Lodge. Plenty of room for our large family vacation with 9 bedrooms and 9 bathrooms in the main lodge. We also reserved the adjoining 2 apartments over the garage. Plenty of beds for everyone using the queen mattresses in the lofts. (We took our own sheets (which are not provided) to use on the loft queen size mattresses). We are very grateful the mattresses are provided for optional use. The area is absolutely beautiful, many deer and fun trails to explore. We had nightly volleyball games at the sand court on the property. S’mores at the fire pit was so fun! Having so many bathrooms (11 in total!!) was a big plus for a large family with children. The AC units provided adequate cooling and at night we just opened the windows to the cool night air. Orderville is 19 miles away and we found everything we needed at Terry’s Food & Drug (grocery store). The golfing was a plus on the property and several of our group went to Thunderbird Golf Course for a day out. Lots of places to sit for meals, comfortable living areas and lots of room indoor and out. We are hoping to book for next summer. One of our favorite places and locations. Comfortable beds and ample kitchen space for food and storage of refrigerated items. The ICE MACHINE was a marvelous surprise! Plenty of ice all week! We have been renting for family vacations like this for 30 years and this is the one we want to go back to again. Thank you to the Heaton family for sharing!

Family get-together

We are a family of hikers so enjoyed staying between two national parks. After a long day of hiking and sight seeing everyone enjoyed the pool and ping pong tables. The kitchen was well equipped as we ate every meal together in the house.

Wonderful Family Vacation

We experienced an amazing week at the Alton Lodge! The family had a wonderful time playing around the spacious yard; the chipping range was a hit, the volleyball court made for several friendly matches, the surrounding scenic landscape was beautiful! The kitchen was spacious and well equipped; the oven door gave us fits for the first couple of days but once we figured a work around it all went smoothly. Thoroughly enjoyed the property and highly recommend the Alton Lodge!

The cabin is big and beautiful. Just needs some updating. There were some things not working and it is getting a little run down. With some updates it would be amazing.
