This place "rocks"!

This place was so perfect for what we needed. Plenty of room and very comfortable. Even the parking situation was great for the three vehicles we had (one with a trailer). Such an awesome home.

Wonderful

We stayed at this wonderful house for two nights while visiting Capitol Reef NP . The pictures do not do it justice. It was absolutely spotless and like a well appointed guest house. The owners have anticipated every need and are very generous with paper towels, toilet paper, washer pods, etc. The town of Loa is small but we found a restaurant, gas and a grocery store. The short drive to the park is beautiful. Do be aware that the larger bathroom is downstairs while the three bedrooms are upstairs and the stairs are a little steep. Our group was fine as the younger members used the downstairs one and older members used the one upstairs. The history of the house is provided and fascinating. We have traveled quite a bit and this is one of the best rentals we’ve found.

Loved the restoration

This place was just perfect for our small group. Comfy beds, super clean inside and out! Within 20 minutes to some trails, 38 minutes to Canyon Reef and all those trails. And beautiful black cows to look at most days. Not what I get from my home. Loved it!

Family Vacation

My family and I loved staying here. It wasn't to far of a drive to get to fun locations. The property was clean and fit 9 people very comfortably. The owners were very quick at responding to me as well. We will try to be back next year.
