40 Acre Escalante Canyon Retreat

Absolutely beautiful home and the location was amazing. Our view from the dining table at breakfast set such a positive mood for the rest of our day and star gazing at night was such a treat to us city dwellers! The home itself had beautiful touches of stone and tile which added to a comfortable esthetic stay. We loved it! A nice added feature is the close proximity to Kiva Coffee!! We loved it.

crazy pretty. great home. 10/10.

Beautiful home in a great location!

This is our third time staying here. The house is in a great location, very cozy, has everything you need!

Great location for exploring the northern part of Grand Staircase. You are actually staying in the monument boundaries Beautiful, peaceful surroundings. Deer grazing out front.

Beautiful house and location. Always enjoy staying here.

Great property and surroundings

Very nice property, well maintained and in a great location.

Amazing property, we loved staying in the canyons. My kid feel asleep at night looking out the skylight! Would book again in a heartbeat! Thank you!

We have stayed here several times. Always magical. This time wild, beautiful fog! Another fabulous meal at Hell’s Backbone Grill. One of our favorite houses in the world.

Just an amazing home. Beautiful inside, stunning grounds. Remote location in the Escalante River valley, but 20 minutes to the town of Escalante for coffee and food. Easy communication with the host. A definite place to come back to.

Unlike any place we have stayed. Red rocks out back door and the serenity of Utah's best 360 degrees with the Escalante River.

My husband and I invited our good friends (another couple) to join us for several days in this beautiful place. The setting is gorgeous with the red rock walls, cottonwoods, Escalante River nearby and dark skies at night. We hiked from the house itself as well as from trailheads a short drive away. We enjoyed cooking together in the well stocked kitchen and hanging out on the lovely deck. The beds were comfortable. The house is very welcoming and lovely !

What a special home this was to get away from the bustle of life! The river crossing to get to the home was exciting. We found hikes to explore every day with some of our favorites leaving right from the property. Definitely check out Phipps Arch! Some of our favorite things were wading in the Escalante River every day, dinner at Hell's Backbone Grill after hiking Upper Calf Creek Falls, and sourdough pizza lunch at Escalante Outfitters after hiking Lower Calf Creek Falls, staring out the window from the comfy bed, a roaring wood fire when the temps dropped and the amazing views from all windows in the home! It was the perfect spot to play card games with our kids, read, and do a puzzle to pass the time!

This was such a dream location for our family trip to Grand Staircase-Escalante. The home itself is beautifully designed and decorated. Cozy, comfortable, an amazing fireplace, great beds, everything you need for your visit, and views out *giant* windows in every direction. It's only upstaged by the towering red canyon walls it is surrounded by -- really, hard to describe in words how stunning the location is. Great hikes out the door, or short drives to trailheads, petroglyphs, and even dinosaur tracks. We feel very lucky to have stayed in this home, and cannot recommend it enough to anyone looking for a special experience in the heart of the monument!

We had an amazing experience!! The house was beautiful and very comfortable, including the beds. Couldn’t imagine a more serene location…if you’re lucky to book it, don’t hesitate!

Great location, host was helpful, everything needed was there. We would happily stay there again.

A lovely home in the one of the most beautiful settings you can imagine. My wife and I fell in love with it immediately and hope to return.

This house and location were fantastic and we enjoyed natures beauty and the peace of a private canyon. Thank you so much. Mark

This is an amazing property. We felt privileged to enjoy our time in this very special corner of the spectacular Escalante area. The builders/owners deployed artistic and naturalistic flair to create a fantastic retreat in the middle of a cottonwood grove and red rock canyon. The extra touches, books and art were a pleasure. We would love to spend a month there if we could. Highly recommend.
