Calleen is an outstanding host! So responsive to any questions we had. The area information was invaluable. The unit was impeccably furnished and provided an amazing respite for our family gathering. We especially loved the outdoor patio!
I wish I could give 6 stars! This property is clean, comfortable, with cute decor, and so many thoughtful details and touches. The host, Calleen, was very attentive through the entire process. The kitchenware was top quality and well-stocked (spices, oils, coffee, tea). We were welcomed with snacks, hot chocolate mix, and waters in the fridge. This is the kind of place that is clean and comfortable, which means it feels like a home away from home and you rest well. This is not our first time to Kanab and won’t be our last. This will be the first place I check when we return! (I rated the pool 5 stars, but we didn’t actually use it bc it was cold - our stay was in Dec. The pool was closed but the hot tube was open!)
This was a perfect place to say. I stayed here with my husband in an hour 10-year-old daughter . It was Perfectly located in between Bryce national Park and Zion national Park. There was tons of things to do in the area other than the two parks. I cannot say enough good things about the rental itself. It was the cleanest, most well stocked home we’ve ever stayed in. Everything was nice. Even the cookware and the knives were decent. You don’t normally see that in a rental. Anything you needed was there. colleen was very quick to respond to any questions that I had. She also reached out a couple times to make sure we were all set.Highly recommend this place.
