Just as indicated, this is a serene retreat! A lovely rural setting yet close to the National Parks and all the scenic opportunities in the area. The space is tastefully decorated and clean, the linens were very nice. The farmhouse was much larger than we expected and had everything needed for our almost 2 week stay. We would definitely stay here again when in the area.

Very nicely decorated with everything you need for a stay. Very quiet and clean plus close to town for a home in a farm area. The only thing is the dirt road is very dusty with lot’s of bumps in the road.We would stay again if we traveled the area.

Thank you for your thoughtful review! We’re so glad you enjoyed the peaceful setting, cleanliness, and the convenience of being close to town while still in a country setting. You’re absolutely right—the road can be a bit bumpy and dusty at times. Since it’s a county road, it does reflect the rural charm that comes with being in a more natural setting. We really appreciate your understanding and are so happy to hear you’d stay with us again. We’d love to welcome you back anytime!

Amazing place to stay.

A peaceful escape with unforgettable views!My stay at the Serene Farmhouse Retreat was everything I hoped for and more. The property is incredibly peaceful—set on 20 acres of beautiful land with wide-open skies and stunning scenery in every direction. The farmhouse was spotless, thoughtfully decorated, and had all the comforts of home. I especially appreciated the quiet mornings on the porch and how close it was to iconic parks like Zion, Bryce Canyon, and even the Grand Canyon. It’s the perfect base for exploring southern Utah and northern Arizona. Highly recommend for anyone looking to recharge in nature without sacrificing comfort.

Christmas break family getaway

We had an absolutely wonderful stay at Mari and Tyrels Serene Farmhouse. The house was clean, beautifully decorated, creating a cozy and inviting atmosphere that made it feel like home. It was incredibly well-stocked with everything we could possibly need, which made our trip stress-free and enjoyable.The location was perfect for exploring Cedar City, Brian Head, Zion National Park, and Bryce Canyon. We loved being able to visit so many amazing destinations while having such a comfortable and convenient home base.The hosts were incredibly helpful and attentive, clearly putting a lot of thought and care into making the rental as welcoming as possible. The attention to detail did not go unnoticed, and we truly appreciated all the little touches that made our stay special.We can’t wait to return and would highly recommend this rental to anyone looking for a memorable getaway!

Cozy and Convenient Little House

Surprised my wife with a trip to Utah for our 10th anniversary. So glad we came across this place. It had everything we needed for a cozy week of relaxation- from beautiful mountain views and live music from the local birds to quaint and convenient Cedar City just a few minutes away. The drive to Zion is about an hour, but it’s a beautiful hour of easy freeway driving and breathtaking vistas. Everything was remarkably clean, tastefully appointed and uniformly decorated. Clean sheets, spot-free towels, just enough dishes, spices, detergents, soaps, coffee to be perfect for a week-long stay. Bed and furniture are comfortable, plenty of pillows, TV was easy to use, hosts were friendly and easy to communicate with but not intrusive. There are other rentals very close by on the property which were vacant while we were there, so it was perfect, romantic privacy. If you’re hoping for a romantic getaway, I would try to book it while the other buildings are vacant. The binder with local restaurant recommendations was an excellent touch- we had multiple great dining experiences thanks to that!Overall, our stay will be a highlight we will remember for many years, and this little house was the perfect place for us. We’d give more stars if we could.

Clean and pristine place. We had no water first morning of our trip. We notified the host and her husband arrived an hour later to fix the water pump. We were without water and inability to shower the entire morning. We did expect the host would give us a partial refund for the day. The host used excuses like “we have it listed in our rental that we have a private well”. She minimized the value of the 4 to 4 1/2 hrs we were without water. We understand that acts of God happen. It was her attitude and snippiness that was bad. The poor customer service the host gave us was dismal and Mari (the host) further blamed us and was quite short and dismissive regarding our request. She should not be in customer service if she is not interested in providing a backup plan when her property fails. We attempted to resolve this issue with no avail.

Our property is on a private well, and unfortunately the pump broke that morning. We were notified at 9:30 AM, arrived within an hour, and had the issue fixed by 11:30 am, restoring full water service. This has never happened before, it was unfortunate but out of our control. The inconvenience you mentioned was not being able to make coffee. We had water on site that could be used, and I also offered to bring additional water jugs, which was declined. We did our best to resolve the issue quickly, but it seems that was not enough. We did not feel a refund was warranted, as we had already provided a five-hour early check-in so you could get to your play early. I arranged for cleaners to have the home ready for you early so you could drop off your belongings and freshen up. Given that the refund was never mentioned during your stay and the issue was resolved within two hours, we felt this accommodation fairly offset the inconvenience. While we regret that this happened at all- and our place did not meet your expectations, we believe we acted quickly and responsibly to resolve the situation. We were kind and professional but weren’t treated kindly in return despite our efforts. We have a wonderful track record of happy guests and unfortunately despite our best efforts we weren’t able to make you happy. We hope you are able to find a home in the area for your next trip that better suits your expectations.

About the host

Hosted by Mari Eddy

Host profile image
We are Southern Utah locals, born and raised, and we absolutely love it here! A year ago, we purchased a farm and fell in love with the idea of sharing its charm with others. While we enjoy the property ourselves, we’re excited to offer its homes as a getaway for our guests to experience the beauty and tranquility of the area. We hope you’ll love it as much as we do!

Why they chose this property

Our neighborhood is the perfect escape for anyone looking for peace and quiet. Evenings are truly magical here—sitting on the front porch in a cozy rocking chair is our favorite way to unwind. The sunsets are breathtaking, painting the sky with vibrant colors, while the gentle sounds of birds create a relaxing soundtrack. With stunning mountain views all around, it’s a little slice of heaven we’re excited to share with our guests!

What makes this property unique

Our property offers a truly unique getaway! It’s the perfect escape from the hustle and bustle of city life, yet conveniently located just an 8-minute drive to Cedar City. One of the things that sets us apart is the privacy—you’ll have the property all to yourself since we don’t live on-site. For those needing additional space, we’ll soon be offering another charming cottage unit on the property, giving you even more flexibility for your stay. It’s a peaceful retreat we’re excited to share with you!
