About this property

Escalante Pioneer Home Page

*Please note that VRBO is having an issue on their website showing our property has a pool but we DO NOT HAVE A POOL and have contacted VRBO about this issue multiple times*. Spacious home in Escalante, Utah. Central to various hikes in Grand Staircase monument, Bryce Canyon and other nearby National Parks. We also encourage you to check out the less well known hikes in areas of Boulder that are a short drive- the adventures are endless! Great views to enjoy from the four patios in the evening in this quiet neighborhood.
We just completed remodeling this pioneer home with brand new paint and flooring throughout! It is a home that has been in our family for 6 generations since it was built in 1905. We love to hike the nearby trails and appreciate your stay as the funds are going to restoring the home and to keeping it family owned. We have also recently purchased a brand new game table for guests to enjoy while in the home with Foosball, pool and air hockey! Lots of other board games and movies come ready. We hope you enjoy your stay!

The home has been updated with central air and heating, as well as a washer and dryer for your convenience. We do have a fridge, but please note there is no dishwasher or ice maker.

Home base in Escalante

Our family of 4 spent a wonderful 10 days at the Pioneer House in Escalante. We appreciated the location near many great hikes, comfortable beds, kitchen to cook together, the history of the house, and the fact that our dog was welcome. Kasia was helpful, friendly, and responsive when we asked to extend out stay- no one wanted to leave! Wifi worked well and there are lots of thoughtful touches throughout. We'll be back!

Great Home Base

We were very comfortable with everything at the house. That included sleeping spaces, large dining room for sharing food and playing cribbage, and kitchen for making breakfast and lunches for our outings, the living room was so comfortable for relaxing. Except we were gone all day on adventures The owners were wonderful to work with us when we asked to add another day. So helpful about hikes etc in area. We were really satisfied with our stay and would recommend it for others wanting the experience of this beautiful country. This was the perfect home base

Comfortable, clean house convenient to all the sights around Escalante

I wasn't sure what it would be like to stay in a house so old (built around the turn of the century), but it was great. We stayed for around 3 weeks to do all the hikes/camping/backpacking I've been dreaming of doing in the Escalante area. It was the perfect home base for that. The owners have updated enough to make it comfortable (new hot water heater, central heating with Nest thermostat, fiber internet), while preserving the historical charm. You can read about the history of the house and family on the walls and it is very interesting. I brought my laptop and was able to work remotely from the house. The internet speed was great -- I did conference calls, etc. with no issues. The kitchen is pretty basic -- stove/oven are old, but functional, counter space is limited for food prep, but had everything I needed to do some cooking. My only suggestion for the owners would be to replace the TV. It has all the streaming apps on it (Netflix, Hulu, etc.) but the TV itself is SLOW. The internet is fast, so the streaming is not a problem, but just clicking around the apps on the TV is painful. Overall, we had a great stay.

Great restoration in progress

The owners seem in the process of restoring this wonderful old pioneer house, but so far it stops short of the complete remodel that's really needed. The many doors are pretty jenky, some working and some sealed up with duct tape. Some of the appliances are a little tired. The finish work old and patchy. All the "patina" makes it too easy for grime to hide in cracks and corners. All that said, the beds are clean and comfy. The shower is decent. The dining room and family room are excellent spaces for the family to be together. I feel good that my rent money might help the further improvement of this great house.

About the host

Hosted by Kasia Palmer

Host profile image
This Pioneer home has been in our family since 1905. We decide to purchase it to keep it in the family and are working to renovate and update it. Using it as a Vacation home has been a great way to generate income to maintain it and we love having guests enjoy the uniqueness of the home. We love coming to Escalante ourselves to visit family and hike!

Why they chose this property

This home has many emotional ties, as it was built by our Great, Great Grandfather and has been in our family for five generations. Luckily it is in a perfect location, between two National Parks and in the middle of a National Monument. So much to do and see just minutes away from the home!

What makes this property unique

This home has unique character and charm that you will only find with home built over 100 years ago, yet it is also very comfortable as many updates have been made to ensure a great stay!
