Awesome Places to Stay in Utah

We have traveled all over Utah, and we love when we find a really fun place to stay. Although we don’t often spend a lot of time in the hotel or house, our kids love coming back to a fun spot after spending the day out adventuring. Below are a few places we’ve stayed, as a family, as a couple, or with extended family. If you have another fun spot, send us an email at info@utahsadventurefamily.com, so we can keep adding to our Awesome Place to Stay in Utah.

Airbnb near Duck Lake

This home is one of our all time favorites. There is plenty of space for a families to stay together. It is in an amazing location with great access to Kanab, Bryce Canyon, Duck Lake, Cedar Breaks, and Zion. There were deer wandering around and we could hear elk in the evenings. We loved it.

Sand Hollow Surf in Hurricane

We stayed with my sister in a fun airbnb in Hurricane. This house was extra fun because it had a personal pool right next to the kitchen. The pool was inside the house, but also outside the house. There were also fun activities for kids, too, like a foosball table and an old Nintendo. Close to for St. George, Sand Hollow, Zion.

Art City Inn: Springville

The Art City Inn is great for a weekend getaway or even a special celebration. It is historic building that has been updated into the cutest little inn. The rooms are comfy and there is a hot tub, as well as breakfast in the morning. We had such a fun time exploring southern Utah County when we stayed.

The updates are so cute in the Art City Inn.

Escalante Yurts

This is a luxurious place to stay near Escalante. The yurts are super nice inside. It is so fun to have breakfast delivered and the kids loved sleeping in their own space in the loft. There are some campfires and swings for general use around the yurts, too.

Who knew staying in a yurt could be so fun?

Bear River Lodge: Mirror Lake Highway

This spot is awesome for reunions, mountain retreats, and adventuring on ATVs or snowmobiles. We stayed in the huge cabin and it was so nice. The kitchen is massive and there was plenty of space for 20+ people. They also have smaller cabins, too. This one is in a beautiful spot in Utah’s mountains. Use code “utahsadventurefamily” to save 10% on any stay.

Best Friends Roadhouse: Kanab

We love visiting Kanab because there is so much to do, and the Best Friends Roadhouse Inn is a great spot, especially if you are a pet owner! The rooms are designed for pets and their owners. This means there are dog parks and kennels right on the grounds. You can even have a pet sleepover with the connection to Best Friends Sanctuary down the road. Vegan breakfast is provided, and it is the perfect spot to explore Kanab, Zion, Page, and the northern rim of the Grand Canyon.

We loved how pet friendly this spot is.

Bluff Garden Cabins

If you are planning to explore southeastern Utah like Hovenweep, Natural Bridges, Valley of the Gods, and Monument Valley, then Bluff Garden Cabins is where you need to stay. The cabins are nice and have a full kitchen. They are also affordable and great for a family.

Conestoga Ranch: Bear Lake

Bear Lake is one of our favorite spots in Utah. If you want a luxurious glamping experience in a tent or wagon, visit Conestoga Ranch. Our boys absolutely loved staying in the wagon. There are bunk beds for the kids and a king bed for the adults. You can also choose a large tent. Either way, you will love the property with bikes, games, and a restaurant on site. We love staying because there is plenty to do around Bear Lake.

You sleep right inside the Conestoga wagon.

The Heritage Courthouse: Junction

This house is perfect for family reunions because it is huge. It is an actual courthouse turned into a rental home. We went with a few other families, and we loved that each room was labeled with its original function, such as the jail, or the department of education. There is a large family living area that was the actual courtroom with dress up clothes, foosball, a pool table, and more. There is space for a lot of people, and it is away from the busy areas of the state, but near Bryce Canyon. Check out the Heritage Courthouse. If you mention Utah’s Adventure Family when you book they will give you 10% off.

Mountain Hillside Manor: Park City

This beautiful home is just outside of Park City. It has the best views of the mountains with huge windows and a large porch. Our boys enjoyed the hot tub, and mom loved the two kitchens! It is in a great location for visiting Park City. A few families can easily enjoy the space in the Mountain Hillside Manor.

Aura Abode: St. George

This home is located in Washington just north of St. George and it is across the street from a pool and pickleball courts. We especially loved the deck for watching the sunset. It has room for 10 and has the best decorations. It’s a fun one to share with a friend.

Zen Nest Utah

This is the ultimate place to stay in Utah. You have your own private deck that overlooks beautiful red rock hoodoos. There are two homes and you can rent them both, or just one. They have everything you need to have the most relaxing stay ever. There is a game room, four hot tubs, outdoor kitchens, coffees stations, and so much more. This makes a great place to spend a weekend with friends or family.

Isle 68

We stayed in this amazing rental in Washington and it became a new favorite. The house has three decks with great views and a hot tub. There is a lot of places to gather and hang out, plus a bunk room. Two families cane easily share this home. And the best part is that it is right across the street from the clubhouse, which is awesome. It has a fun pool area with a slide, lazy river, and hot tub. This is a new development and was so nice.

This home looks so fun to stay in. It has a gymnastics type area and a large foam pit. A perfect place to let the kids burn off some energy right inside the house. Located in Salina.
