One of the most satisfying experiences

Difficult to list all the superlatives: beautiful views, home-like experience, very well stocked kitchen with even sharp knives, lots of games, books, puzzles; great wood burning stove with lots of seasoned logs and kindling, even had yoga mats. Mia was most responsive, typically within minutes. Can’t say enough positives. Close enough to Capitol Reef NP. I forgot a toothbrush and of course the cottage had 2 new ones. I

Relaxing stay

Every thing you need is here. Best equipped kitchen we have experienced. Very quiet location with great views. Proximity to Capitol Reef NP a major draw. And Mia was very helpful.

Sand creek cottage

Had a fabulous stay at this cozy cottage. Very close to capital reef NP. Loved the kitchen and wood burning stove (wood was supplied which was great). If you stay here during off season, be sure to bring food and drink with you as most places close in Nov. Mia, our host, was very attentive and helpful!

Excellent place to stay in Torrey

I’ve stayed in many VRBO properties and this was one of the best. A true 5 star in every possible category: the place itself, privacy, location, views, access to restaurants and outdoor activities, host communications, and household supplies. HIGHLY recommended. Next time we come back, we’ll definitely stay here.

About the host

Hosted by Mia Hayes

I’m a schoolteacher and my husband is a civil engineer. We live in Salt Lake City. We love the desert and national parks.

Why they chose this property

We bought this cottage because we love Torrey and all the magnificent national parks in southern Utah. My mother lives there as well! We travel all over the world but Torrey tops our favorites list. We have two adult daughters who adore staying in the cottage. You’ll love it too.

What makes this property unique

The views from every room in the house are unparalleled. Views of snow-capped mountains and red-rock cliffs.
The kitchen is as well equipped as it's possible to be.
