One of our favourite places we stayed on our roadtrip! Beautiful setting - tranquil, novel (stayed in a wagon), great facilities for the kids (some equipment a little tired, but not an issue for us), lovely pool/spa area with slides. Kids loved the kayaking & SUP on little lake. Loved that we could have a campfire and eat outside our wagon. Stars were AMAZING! If you want to do the shooting, be sure to book in advance, as limited availability & times. Horseriding was a great into for the kids - really enjoyable. Handy having restaurant onsite. Can buy ice, but no communal fridge available if glamping. Mini golf was fun for the kids. Nb: there’s an additional charge for some of the activities. Love our visit - would definitely stay again if we were in the area!

Nice stay for visiting Zion NP

Lots of activities on the ranch (horseback riding, swimming, supboarding etc.) and lay-out was great. However, some facilities were in need of some remodelling and the cleaning of bath-/restroom need more attention. Nonetheless, we really enjoyed our stay here and it is a great option for when you are planning to visit Zion NP.

Amazing! Worth a longer stay

We regret not staying more than 1 night! We saw once we got there SO many activities on the property we just didnt get a chance to enjoy due to arriving late and leaving early but I could have stayed a week to reall enjoy all they had to offer. We had a cowboy suite which was amazing and there were no issues with any of the property or stay at all!

We stayed in a glamping tent and loved it. It was cold and snowy but the heater worked well. The bathrooms and showers were kept very clean. Lots of activities to do. And the scenery is so beautiful everywhere you look.
