A charming historical cabin!

The cabin has everything you need for a perfect stay in Escalante, and it is the most charmingly appointed lodging imaginable. Bob and Lisa were so generous with special advice for our hiking preferences, and the fresh baked bread every day was incredible! Our four days were an experience to treasure.

This is the 2nd time we stayed at the Old Bailey Place. Lisa and Bob were so innovative to turn this rustic cabin into such a quaint retreat for all their guests. We would love to own such a place for ourselves. The cabin is close to all the scenic drives along the canyons and it is beautifully done up with everything a person could want. So lovely.

Fantastic stay in a historic getaway

Bob and Lisa really provided an incredible experience at the Old Bailey Cabin. Lovingly restored and very inviting, the Cabin made a great home base for us while we explored Grand Staircase-Escalante and beyond. The most pleasant surprise was Lil Miss, one of the resident semi-feral cats who was especially sweet and friendly with us during our visit. Can't wait to go back!

Thank you, Tim, for your very sweet message. Yes, Lil Miss is a special little feral, and I know she was very taken with you both. Please return when the opportunity arrises. We are very glad you had a memorable and happy stay. We thoroughly enjoyed hosting you! Lisa and Bob

A great place to stay for trips to hiking in the area.

Good place for one person but tight for 2. Didn't use the tub but enjoyed the outdoor shower. Walk to town easy. Felt very safe for single women. Would recommend for someone someone wanting to stay in town. Watching the birds is wonderful.

Little Stay in the Grand Staircase

What a perfect location for anyone looking to enjoy the beautiful back country in Utah! Bob and Lisa spruced this place up with all the amenities one might need, and provided plenty of ways to relax and learn more about the area. This cabin was perfect for each of my day excursions to Devils Garden & the slot canyons to the south, Calf Creek Falls to the north, and Bryce Canyon our west. Couldn't have found a better, more peaceful spot to call home for a few days in an unfamiliar landscape to this Midwesterner.

Perfectly appointed romantic cabin in great location for hiking.

Beautifully decorated in period pieces but very comfortable. Outdoor shower was great did not get to use the claw pedestal tub but it looked lovely in the bedroom. Wonderful front porch with good shade to take in the evening air. Great hiking in the area. Fresh bread daily from host. Very responsive to our needs. Would certainly come back.

Everything we wanted and more

My fiance and I stayed here for a few days. The cabin was so charming. My fiance gave video tours to several of her friends because she loved it so much. We were both impressed by how thoughtful the owners are. We spent one day just lounging in the back yard reading and chatting, and another day out hiking and exploring. We found the location perfect for both. We will absolutely be back.

Magical in Escalante

The best word to describe The Old Bailey Place is “magical!” We spent two nights in this historic, beautifully decorated cabin. It was SO cozy! We loved the materials telling about the history of the place. The freshly baked bread and the basket of goodies provided were so thoughtful. The cabin is surrounded by sunflowers and lavender. We enjoyed watching birds and hummingbirds on the feeders. We will definitely go back.

Cosey cabin & great location!

We stayed at the Baily Cabin for a week - great location easy drive to National and State Parks. Loved sitting on the front porch late afternoons reading and watching the activity of all the hummingbirds. Kitchen set up is great - cooked 4 meals while staying there. Also went to restaurants in the area: Great mexican food at Georgies, Great pizza at Escalante outfitters, super farm to table at Hellbone Grill in Boulder. So many hikes to do in the area. Lisa and Bob were great hosts!

Much needed solitude

The Old Bailey Place is the perfect getaway for a couple looking for a quaint environment and solitude. The bed was super comfy and the linens were top notch. It was exactly as described. If we decide to travel to this area, we would definitely stay again. Thanks to Bob and Lisa for giving us our space, much appreciated.

Charming, historic cabin in the heart of Grand Staircase Escalante

The Old Bailey Place is a true find. This historic home has been lovingly restored with charming detail and thoughtful amenities. You will love the outdoor spaces including the unique outdoor shower which is wonderfully refreshing after a day of hiking. Bob and Lisa were great hosts. Bob’s muffins and bread were delicious and an extra special touch.
