Unique and secluded, glamping at its finest! It’s that escape you’ve been meaning to take. We are the perfect location for hiking Zion National Park, there are great hikes available right from the cabin. This custom built tiny house is located on 3 lots in walking distance of Zion, it offers space and a peaceful getaway from the busy world. Beautiful starry skies, cool evenings and tall ponderosa pines. It is also a great central location to check out Bryce National Park and the north rim of the Grand Canyon. Our minimum is a two night stay but I recommend 3 or more nights to allow time to enjoy the area.

The cabin has a comfy king size bed, leather futon, and a small bistro table for two. There is also a small TV/DVD combo to cuddle up and watch after a long day of hiking. Cooking will occur outside, gas grill provided. There is a covered outdoor gazebo with a sitting area, outdoor sink, and small mini fridge. The picnic table is just off of the gazebo. This wood cabin has a tin roof and a large deck, on the deck is an outside sitting area to relax and take in nature or read a good book. The fire pit is located just off the deck for those nights you want to gather and reminisce about your days adventures and enjoy a s’more or two.

The bath house is separate but cute! Located 20 ft. from the cabin. It has a vanity, toilet, shower and hooks for towels (towels provided). Water is heated by a small propane water heater so hot water time is limited. This cabin brings glamping to another level. We hope you enjoy your Zion experience!

Water is precious in the high-desert. The cabin has a limited water supply with a water tank that is filled from a well so we conserve where we can. Hot water is provided by a propane water heater. The cabin water supply is completely safe to use but since it is held in our water tank, we suggest bringing bottled water for your main drinking source. Water from the tap is completely safe and usable for cooking, showering and everything else. We will provide some drinking water, but we recommend bringing a supply of bottled water to make sure you stay hydrated while in the desert.

Enjoy world-class hiking adventures along the East Rim trail system of Zion National Park. The cabin is walking distance to the Zion National Park East Rim trail network.
