About this property

Brian Head's-Beautiful, Sunny and Spacious, Ski-In/Ski-Out Mountain Home

Get away from all the hustle and bustle. Come sit by a cozy fire while drinking a cup of hot chocolate. Bring friends and family on a fun vacation up to Brian Head, UT located in the heart of Southern Utah's most beautiful landscapes. Great for hiking, biking, fishing, photography, 4-wheeling, skiing, snowboarding, inner tubing etc. Come and experience one of the most memorable vacations.

Our beautiful, sunny and spacious cabin is located in paved neighborhood of Trails at Navajo. It is nestled in the trees on the Navajo slopes with ski-in ski-out accommodations. We have all the modern amenities that you enjoy at home including a well stocked kitchen, stainless steel appliances, a large sunlit family room, extra-long dining table for all your family and friends and a bonus basement with large flat screen TV with a large selections of movies.

Accommodations:
Our home is a 6 bedroom, 4 ¼ bath home with beds for 19. We also have 2 twin inflatables and a port-a-crib. We have plenty of sheets, blankets, pillows and towels so no need to fill your cars with these. We provide shampoo, conditioner, bar soap, soft soap, dishwasher soap etc.

Winter:
We recommend that you take advantage of the wonderful ski and snowboard instruction available at Brian Head especially the kids camp at the Navajo Resort. It is inexpensive and fun. The resort offers both group and private snowboard or skiing instructions. They have lift ticket and lesson packages. Go to Brian Head.com to make reservations ahead of time especially during the holidays. Please be aware there are 2 ski resorts connected by a bridge. Giant steps resort has the more advanced skiing. There are also 2 inner tube parks.

Unless you are purchasing a package, we prefer Georg's for equipment rental. They have it all including skis, snowboards, snowshoes, cross country equipment and winter clothing. Ask for the Harpster discount.

Spring/Summer/Fall:
The resort offers biking, hiking, 4 wheeling and fishing tours. On summer weekends in town there are several activities for the kids including alpine slide, zip line, climbing wall and bungee trampoline to name a few. There is also the new lake including a playground, basketball court, pickle ball court, picnic benches and fire pits. A short distance away is Cedar Breaks, Navajo Lake, Panguitch Lake and Bryce Canyon. We also enjoy the Shakespeare Festival in Cedar City in the Summer and Fall. They offer a variety of professional plays and even have baby sitting available. Go to Bard.org for information. Cedar City Aquatic Park is worth the drive. It has multiple pools inside and out including a lazy river, giant slide, play equipment and much more.

We recommend that you drink LOTS of water on the way up. Sports drinks offering electrolytes are even better. The elevation of our home is 9,800 ft. The base at Giant Steps is 10,000 ft.

Food services are limited at Brian Head. Cedar City has a Smiths, Walmart and Lins for groceries. Parowan has a smaller store called Food Town. Please note it closes at 9:00 pm. There are also two small markets in Brian Head. They are a little pricey but great for forgotten items.

Most importantly…. Relax, enjoy, have fun and make yourself at home.........

Best family cabin in Brian Head!

We've been coming to BH for the past 5 years for a family ski trip and this was hands down the best property we've stayed at! The location is perfect and the cabin has all the amenities you could ask for. The cabin is clean, comfortable, and has the perfect layout for 4 families. Being able to ski-in and out saves so much time. Even our young ones were able to make the short walk back to the cabin. Gwen is a wonderful and responsive host. We will be back!

We love this house for our annual ski trip

My sisters and I bring our families here every year and we love staying in this house. It's spacious, clean, and comfortable for our big group. The kids love having their own space in the basement complete with toys and an entertainment center. The owners are extremely helpful and responsive. We can't wait to book again for next year.

Great family reunion site

This was a great location for our three-day family reunion with 11 adults and 8 children. The kitchen, actually the entire cabin, was well stocked and Gwen was very easy to communicate with. She was very quick in responding to our few questions. I recommend this place for other families.

Beautiful property! Perfect for my family!

My family had an amazing time in this beautiful home! The house was well stocked, very clean, lots of linens, perfect!! I highly recommend this house to rent. We were there in the summer, but would love to experience this in the winter with the “ski in/ski out” location. Thanks Gwen for a wonderful “family” spot for my family to venture out during this pandemic.

About the host

Hosted by Gwen Harpster

Host profile image
We both love to ski, snowshoe, atv and hike so Brian Head was the perfect choice for us. Utah is a great escape from the crowds in CA. Living at the beach in California has spoiled us with cool summer weather. We also find cool temperatures in Brian Head in the summer. It's always a debate whether we like summer or winter better in Brian Head. Summer is great but it's hard to beat fresh powder and a sunny day with friends and family. We currently have 9 grandkids who love coming up the mountain to ski, tube, hike, fish and of course play with Grandpa and Grandma.

Why they chose this property

We have been coming to Brian Head for more than 25 years. It is such a great, affordable family place in summer as well as winter. Since we enjoyed it so much, we decided to buy our own home. We instantly loved this house as soon as we walked in the front door. Just like our ad says, It is bright, sunny and spacious. We really appreciate the views from every window. Also, the layout was perfect for our family and friends. Plenty of room to be together or to spread out.

What makes this property unique

We love the fact that our home is in a paved neighborhood with city water and sewage. It can get really muddy reaching some of the properties in Brian Head.
