Juniper Hideaway- Nature Retreat Near Zion & Bryce
The Juniper Hideaway is a thoughtfully designed two-bedroom retreat nestled in the juniper hills 15 minutes outside of Cedar City.
Built in 2025 with intention and care for the surrounding landscape, the home was placed within the existing junipers without removing trees, allowing the natural flow of the land to remain intact. Surrounded by open skies and dark nights, the space offers a grounded desert experience that feels both calming and restorative.
Guests can enjoy easy access to Zion, Bryce Canyon, Cedar Breaks, Brian Head, and Cedar City while returning home to a quieter, more secluded setting away from heavy crowds and light pollution.
The home is fully private, single-story, and completely step-free for easy access.

About the host
Hosted by CheyAnne and Chris
We’re Chris and CheyAnne, and we’re thrilled to welcome you to The Juniper Hideaway! We’ve both spent decades building lives filled with creativity, connection, and hard work—Chris running a landscape company for over 2 decades and CheyAnne owning multiple salons and guiding clients through transformation. After years in the 9–5 grind, we realized our greatest joy comes from slowing down, being present, and creating spaces where people can relax, reflect, and feel at home.
We love the outdoors, soaking up the beauty of Southern Utah, and finding simple ways to bring calm and inspiration into everyday life. Hosting is our chance to share this with others—whether it’s through a quiet morning on the deck, a starlit evening, or a cozy spot to read, write, or just breathe.
For us, The Juniper Hideaway isn’t just a property—it’s a place to reconnect with yourself and the rhythms of nature. We’re honored to care for this land, which holds deep significance to the Nuwuvi (Southern Paiute) people, and we aim to keep it peaceful, beautiful, and welcoming.
We’re excited to host you and help make your stay relaxing, memorable, and full of little moments that spark joy.
