The following is information and our desire for a harmonious and safe experience for our guests and the property:
We ask all of our guests to do their best to follow the “golden rule” of treating our place the way they would like visitors to treat their home and other than the necessary general cleaning, that they leave it as they found it. We also add a Ghandi twist of being the change they want to see in the world. This seems to open the door of kindness, accountability, trust and awareness for all involved.

There are many crystals, stones and beautiful rocks that have been placed in the building/home/lodge as well as throughout the grounds. Please enjoy their beauty without removing them from where they have been placed. It has taken years and a lot of dedication and love to assemble this collection and we would like to continue to share their beauty with all the guests to enjoy, while they are on the property, for years to come.

    Where do we even begin to try & do this magical place justice.True North is spotless & fully equipped with everything you need & more. As many have said, pictures do not do it justice, as we too found out. It is our opinion that you will not find a more breathtaking place to stay when you visit Zion.Now, this is a place you feel, it awakens something in you that you didn’t know was there and/or helps you reconnect with yourself & others.Our hosts, Mariangela & Hank are remarkable. We spent quite a bit of time with Hank, he was most helpful with recommending places to see & hike but beyond that, they are a big part of what makes True North so special. We highly recommend getting to know them & their adorable furry family - Sophia, Luna, Meli & Gandalf. We went on a couple of beautiful hikes with Hank, Sophia and Luna & definitely encourage you to enjoy these experiences. Everyone’s journey to True North will be individual so as much as we could go on and on, we suggest you go visit to create your own unforgettable memories - this place but even more so, Hank & his family will leave you with sense of peace and a longing to return.

    This home was absolutely amazing inside and out and the location cannot be beat. Fantastic hiking all around us and never saw another person. Hank was so helpful in finding the great hikes for us to take every day, we were never disappointed. Loved the hot tub and used it every night after a day of hiking. Kitchen was the best stocked kitchen I have ever had at a vrbo house. We cooked in most nights and enjoyed the outdoor fire place after dinner. Never even turned on the TV. Only touched my phone to take pictures. Unplugged and loved it.

    Exceeded our expectations in every way. Spent a whole day exploring the 10 acre estate and the surrounding properties at a leisurely pace and just family, no crowds!! Yet we were close enough to see Zion and Bryce with a short drive. The idea of being off grid fascinated me but all the comforts of home were still available. The Host were very knowledgeable about the area and shared information/ideas as asked. They wanted us to relax, recharge and enjoy their part of the world and we did. Thanks

    I took my grandchildren (aged 18-35) on vacation in Zion National Park. When they entered the house, they were 'wowed'. We loved the Southwestern decor. It was cozy and well-equipped. We cooked each night in a lovely kitchen. We relaxed in the hot tub with a stunning view of the mountains. Hank was a friendly and informative host.

    The property is mind-bogglingly beautiful, and the house a true retreat/sanctuary. 360 views with plenty of space to relax and enjoy, or eat and take it all in. Hank and Mariangela were ideal hosts, and made us feel very welcome and cherished as guests. Hank in particular went out of his way to show us paths to walk/hike and ensure we didn’t get stuck (as we are city folks). You will be at peace at this property.

    Our 3-generation family thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Zion Villa True North! Hank was a gracious host with very helpful tips for area hikes and activities. The property & surroundings are beautiful! Easy access to the most popular parts of Zion, but also nice to get away from the crowds in this quieter part of the park. Enjoyed several area hikes where we were the only people out there. Can't say enough good things about Hank! We look forward to going back!

    This is the best VRBO I have ever been to! Hank the host is amazing and helped us plan an amazing trip for my wife's birthday. The pictures of this place are great but cannot do this place/location justice. I would HIGHLY recommend this place if you are planning a trip to Zion.

    Hank was the perfect host. I have traveled all over the world and this was one of the most unique houses I have ever stayed in. Totally off the grid but with all of the comforts of home; which was needed after long days of hiking Zion. Loved sitting on the back porch and watching the beautiful sunset. Got to meet the pups and kitty. Hank met us on a walk last night and answered any/all of the questions we had from the types of rocks to things to do around the area. This home is truly unique and made such a memorable stay

    This rental is amazing, I can’t express what an unbelievable experience and amazing host this property had to offer me and my family. We were looking for a majestic place to honor a loved one that had passed and this was the place. We didn’t know it at first but we became very sure of it in a very quick time period. We will return again and again

    Sitting in the hot tub and watching the mountains change color as the sun sets was just the most beautiful sight. Our stay was wonderful, Hank and Mariangela were the greatest of hosts, saying this, after having stayed at many VRBO properties. Peaceful, tranquil, and soothing to the soul, this property is a fantastic place to stay with easy access to all Zion has to offer!
