There is something truly magical about Southern Utah! ❤️🏜️

From the towering red rock cliffs and incredible landscapes to the peaceful desert nights and dramatic lightning storms, Southern Utah is a place that never stops amazing me. Every visit brings another reason to fall in love with this beautiful part of the country.

And if Southern Utah is on your adventure list, we’d love to welcome you to our Zion Desert Hideaway!

Located in La Verkin, just 25 minutes from Zion National Park, our home is the perfect place to relax after a day of exploring.

🏡 A few things you’ll enjoy:

✨ 3 bedrooms with comfortable king beds

✨ 2 bathrooms, plus a queen sleeper sofa in the game room

✨ Private hot tub under the desert sky

✨ Outdoor fire pit for relaxing evenings

✨ Game room for family fun

✨ Fully stocked kitchen & coffee bar

✨ BBQ, hammocks & swing set

✨ Washer & dryer for longer adventures

Whether you’re hiking Zion, exploring the surrounding beauty, or simply soaking in the hot tub beneath the stars, there’s so much to love about this special place.

📸 This lightning storm was captured on the backside of Zion National Park. Just another reminder of how incredible God’s creation truly is! By Catherine Reese Fine Art Photography whose art is on display throughout the home.

Hosting isn't just a job for us—it's about the memories you make! Whether it's feeding the mini donkeys at our Texas ranch or enjoying a quiet night by the fire in Zion, we love providing those little details that make your getaway special. 🐄🔥 What's your favorite part of a vacation stay?

We love that guests notice & appreciate the little touches that go into all 3 of our homes. Each has its own personality & when guests notice & comment about it, we know we’ve done something right & it feels good to be a little part of special memories being made!

It’s not just me, it’s always a team, I have the vision & set alot in motion, but without the hard working cleaning crew, maintenance people & occasionally a favor we’d not have the 100s of 5 star reviews that we do!! Also grace from our amazing guests, cause occasionally something breaks & while we are on it immediately, sometimes it takes a few hours or a day to get it taken care of.

We are incredibly thankful.
I’ve been hosting for 9 years, currently have 3 homes, had 4 that we sold 3 years ago. So 7 different listings over 9 yrs.

Stay tuned for some announcements & updates in coming days or weeks.

If you’d like to be notified when we announce the latest or offer any promotions for your next vacation, shoot us an email at

Or comment stay connected & I’ll send you a message.

Exciting things are coming!! 🎉♥️

On a back road looking at Zion, a secret gem just a few minutes from our Zion Desert getaway!

When it’s hot, we check out water by day & early mornings & evenings, go for a hike or watch the light show! (The stars are amazing too)

When it’s 107 by day…. You do other things besides photograph.

When the sun is about to set it’s time for a random road trip to see what you can find. When you’re surrounded by Zion’s beauty, she puts on a show!
