About this property

A wonderful, secluded 2 story cabin, deck, fire pit, stocked pond for fishing.

Looking for a way to escape the hustle and bustle of everyday life and create memories with your spouse, friends, or family, this is the place to make this happen. Wonderful cabin located just outside of Paradise, Utah 15 minutes to Logan, Utah and 5 minutes to Hyrum Dam. The cabin has two stories. The main level has a great room with leather couches, fully stocked kitchen, half bath, TV with satellite dish, board games, wood burning fire place, air conditioning, large deck with gorgeous views of pond on property and the Little Bear River Bottoms. Basement level has gas stove, electric heat, two bedrooms, both with very comfortable queen beds, and a full bath. Walking outside you will find a patio with a Weber grill and flat top grill for cooking, a large fire pit, a large lawn area for games including volleyball. There is a one-acre pond for fishing, but no swimming or kayaking. Access is down a gravel road. We recommend 4-wheel or all-wheel drive high-clearance vehicles. The cabin sleeps 4 in two queen beds, but has two long leather couches and a leather love seat couch (extra bedding as well) on the main floor where others could sleep and tents are allowed.

2025 Upgrade: We installed a new water system at the cabin. The kitchen sink now has an osmosis filter and the entire cabin has a new filtration system. The water is clean, safe to drink, and should have no sulfur odor.

Very beautiful and relaxing property. The pond was a fun place to fish and the wildlife that visited us daily was wonderful. We would surely plan to return to this wonderful oasis.

The property itself was magnificent. The cabin was a littlest outdated and bathrooms very small. Lots of stairs not ideal for order couples. All in all had a good experience.

A relaxing weekend

This was our third time back and it won’t be our last. Such a relaxing setting. So much fun for kids and adults alike. The hosts were so accommodating when we had to change our schedule at the last minute. We were sad to leave but excited to return.

Secluded Cabin

I wish I owned a place like this. It was quiet, peaceful and perfect for family time. There was plenty to do outside all day with fishing, exploring and playing games. The cabin was small, but enough for our little family. I would go here again for the relaxing fishing and family game time.

So lovely to come back!

This place is the best place to be when the leaves are turning. We had so much fun as a family, it truly is a little bit of paradise. You feel very secluded, but you were only approximately 5 to 10 minutes away from grocery stores and necessities. Owners are so responsive and friendly. We will be coming back!

Extended Our Stay A Few More Days

We ended up staying a few days longer as our project scope was extended. I'd like to add that we saw a variety of wildlife. A lot of Sandhill Cranes, a fox in a field below, Several Pheasants, Magpies, a few deer, and we heard some Turkeys. The owner did come by daily...

Very Relaxing Cozy Cabin

Property was well maintained. Patio views were spectacular. The owner came and checked in on us several times and to tend to the pond. Kitchen was well stocked. Pellet heater was cozy and effective. Beds comfortable. Tasha was a great communicator and friendly. We were here for work but enjoyed a gateway experience in the evenings/ weekends. I'd definitely stay here again.

Lovely Visit to Almost Paradise Cabin

This is our 2nd time staying at this lovely cabin. The family and I had an amazing time. We loved the upgrades to the new water filtration system, and the cabin was clean and inviting. We had the best time fishing, star gazing, playing yard games and feeding the horses.We will definitely be returning to have another fun and relaxing little getaway in the near future.

Our FAVORITE fishing getaway ever!

Almost Paradise is the very best place to get away from the noise of your busy life and relax with some fishing. Our stay here was hands down some of the most fun we've had in years. We've been here several times before with friends and we can't wait to plan another trip!

Great short stay

We stayed with our kids 5,14 and 16. They had a blast fishing, feeding the horses, at the campfire. Went down to porcupine reservoir to go after trout since only bass were in pond. Our older kids came up for a day and enjoyed playing the yard games and Lounging in the hammocks. We caught several bass, a snake, a cat faced spider. The only con is the smelly hot water… otherwise it was nearly paradise :) thanks for a fun weekend

A hidden slice of Heaven

My wife and I stayed here in October of 2024. We enjoyed every minute of the stay. I caught fish in the pond and had coffee on the deck every morning. We lit a campfire at night and watched some amazing sunsets with the Wellsville mountains in the distance to the west. We took a short drive to Porcupine Reservoir to watch the Kokenee Salmon running up the river in full red spawn colors. We would love to go back and spend more time in that little slice of heaven. Almost Paradise is and understatement for a cabin name here. I also think it's a play on words since its located just outside Paradise Utah. It certainly is PARADISE!!

Paradise in Utah

If you want a get away from the city this is the place. You have a beautiful pond, beautiful view and farm life all in one. The house is small and cozy. Only down fall is the smell of the water in the house. Very high sulfur smell made it unbearable to use, but owner states it is clean and filter will be added soon.We did have some troubles with locking the front door, and ofc there are a ton of bugs. But the bugs are a given with nature and wild life. Bring your own wood and fishing poles and this place is a dream. Definitely recommend for anyone. SUVs and Trucks are recommended because the road down to the cabin is very rocky, down hill and lots of sharp turns.

Perfect Getaway at Nearly Paradise Cabin

My family and I had such an amazing time visiting this nearly paradise little cabin. The cabin was very clean and had all the amenities you could ask for or need. This place provided the perfect combination of the peace and quite you get with camping and being in nature, but also still being able to be connected to the real world when you wanted/needed to be. We loved saying hi to the horses and saw so many animals up close (deer, cows, turkeys, hawks, a frog, and small garden snakes). We spent a lot of time at the pond fishing and sitting outside admiring the views. The owners were very kind, and one owner stopped by to bring us water and ice. They also responded to our questions in a timely manner. We felt our privacy was respected and that we had the place to ourselves. There were bug zapper lanterns that really came in handy while we were outside in the evening times, and had lots of fun playing corn hole and ladder ball. Keep in mind some mosquitoes and bugs would make their way into the bottom level of the house in/near the bathroom and bedrooms (Earwigs, mosquitoes, wolf spiders). We would do a quick walk through to get rid of what was in those rooms before occupying them, and that helped out a lot. The water does smell of sulfur, especially on hot, so we used bottled water for drinking and brushing teeth. All in all my family and I had such an amazing time and were super sad to leave this place. We made lots of great memories here and will for sure be returning.

About the host

Hosted by Tasha Obray

Host profile image
Bruce taught at the University of Kentucky in the Department of Restorative Dentistry. He was diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis in 1972 and labeled disabled in 1982 which ended his dental career. The family moved back home to Paradise, Utah, for family support in raising their five children, ages three to ten. Margie began her teaching career at Mountain Crest High School. They have all grown with families of their own and they still love the cabin and treasure memories they have as they grew.

Why they chose this property

This property was sold from a larger land parcel and did not have road access. In the beginning it had a small pond, an unattended cabin in a rough, weedy area. Bruce and Margie saw the possibilities from the beginning - a place, if developed, which could be an escape from the tense circumstances of everyday life, a place of peace and a return to nature so one could evaluate one's life journey. The ten-acre plot of land was Bruce's way to provide a place to be together and to work together as the family grew. All members of the family worked hard to create, over the years, a beautiful cabin area that it is today.

What makes this property unique

Description from someone who stayed at the cabin in 2019.
"I have laid in this hammock for two hours, listening to the water cascading into the pond, to geese honking as they fly up the valley, to Sand Hill Cranes beyond the pond and two wild turkeys, but I don't know where they are. In every direction I look it is absolutely isolated and beautiful. I watched the cows and calves feeding in the pasture, watched all kinds of birds and two large Red-Tailed Hawks circling and landing in a bare branched tree top about one-half block away on the hillside. I've watched the horses behind the fence as they watched me almost as intently as I watched them. No, this is not Nearly Paradise, this is Paradise."
