Here you can also investigate ancient caves with Indian Petroglyphs or discover rare dinosaur tracks. The Park's main entrance in Springdale is only 18 minutes away where shuttles will take you to the many other hikes the Park has to offer, such as Angel's Landing, Weeping Rock, Sinewava, and Emerald Pools.

We loved our stay here! Everything was perfect from the gorgeous scenery to the immaculate accommodations. Our host Vickie was so nice and very welcoming! I’d highly recommend staying here for anyone looking for a quiet romantic getaway to Zion National Park! Hope to come back again in the future!
This was the second stay here for my husband and me. We chose this place again due to our wonderful experience the first time. This second visit did not disappoint! Our hosts were again helpful and made us feel very welcome. The cottage is lovely and has everything one could possibly need on a vacation. One of favorite things about this cottage is the location. The surrounding natural beauty is spectacular, comparable to Zion National Park. The location is also perfect for visiting Zion and Kolob Canyon parks.
We had an absolutely wonderful visit. We have made lifelong memories on this vacation and that was thanks to having such a wonderful host and great place to stay! The cottage (and ranch) were the perfect escape from our busy lives. We appreciated all of the little touches in the cottage, it had everything we needed and made us feel special. The hot tub was a very much-needed respite after a day of long hikes. Vickie's recommendations were spot on for places to eat and things to see while we were there! Vickie was very responsive whenever we had a question or need. She's a wonderful host. We're off now but the ranch and cottage will always have a place in our hearts.

This property sits inside of a canyon about 20 mins from the main national park entrance. It contains everything you could want for a quiet and adventurous get away trip. We went for our honeymoon and wish we could have stayed longer. Our hosts Vicki and Hank were friendly, great communicators, and went above and beyond to make the stay great! Would highly recommend this spot to anyone!
Sunset Canyon Ranch didn’t disappoint, from check in to check out everything was a 5 star experience. I would highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a magical stay while visiting Zion.
Amazing property! We have stayed in Zion many times and this was absolutely the best. Great location, quiet, secluded, and romantic.
The Host’s are fantastic. Everything is thought of for your stay.
We loved our time here! Vickie and Hank were so kind and amazing hosts. The scenery is breath taking. The ranch is so beautiful and a perfect place to rest and unwind after a day of hiking in Zion! We loved every minute of our trip!
This property is so comfortable and quiet we did not want to leave. It is a great place to get away from the crowds at Zion and Springdale. It is beautifully furnished and well stocked. Vickie is the perfect host. The pictures and description are accurate. I cannot recommend this property enough. We would definitely stay here again.
Property was beautiful, comfortable, & peaceful. It was an easy drive to Springdale & Zion National Park, a lovely oasis to come back to after a busy day of exploring Zion. We would love to stay at this cottage for future vacations, the next time, we will plan a day or two devoted to solely relaxing & enjoying the property & it’s amenities.
We couldn’t rate this property more highly. Our hosts were most welcoming and provided every extra touch to ensure a memorable stay. Beautiful, secluded surroundings and immaculate accommodations made for a relaxing stay in what can only be described as an exquisite slice of paradise. We’ll definitely be back!
We were looking for something quiet and peaceful, we got both and much more. The location of the cottage is in one of the most beautiful valleys I have ever seen, should be on a postcard. Loved spending time on the patio and in the hot tub. Plus, fresh made cookies. Wow!
Totally Zen experience at the ranch. Quite solitude with only the burbling creek as backdrop. Towering canyon cliffs surrounding white fenced pastures, horse barns and this charming little cottage. At sunset, the far canyon wall glows in red and orange. This is a very special place. Hank and Vickie are extremely professional and friendly hosts.
What a beautiful home, property and the very best hosts. Vickie and Hank were so welcoming. The ranch was a perfect place for us to stay for all of our adventures. The home is very well appointed, the bed is super comfortable and we felt at home immediately. We look forward to returning!
By far the best VRBO that we’ve stayed at. The owners provided every possible amenity to make us feel home. Beautiful location. Amazing cottage.
We are so happy to have found this gem. Highly Highly recommend. 5 stars all the way.
What a magical place to rest & relax regardless of your level of adventures in the region. Vickie & Hank could not have been more welcoming…and I had everything I needed & then some in the beautiful, well-appointed cottage on their 700 acre ranch. And as an aside, when the locals know & rave about the people you’re renting from AND refer to their ranch as “heaven,” you know you’re in great hands at one of the best places in the area :)
We had a wonderful anniversary getaway at Mrs. Vickie’s cottage retreat. The location was perfect for what we were desiring - a short drive to Zion National Park and only a couple of hours away from Bryce Canyon. The homesite itself is a beautiful valley nestled between amazing rock formations. They have horse pastures, a lake, pickleball court, and other homes within the gated property. The host’s hospitality was fantastic, including freshly baked cookies and hot chocolate prepared for us by the fireplace that was all set up and ready to go. The cottage is stocked with many thoughtful amenities, and a grocery store is nearby. The hot tub after a day of hiking was a treat, and the bed was extremely comfortable. We had a great time and completely recommend this listing!
Pictures didn't do it justice, this property was the coziest, homiest, cottage, and it made our trip to Zion absolutely perfect. The furnishings, incredibly well-stocked kitchen, the views, the patio... We would've loved being there without even going to Zion. But coming "home" to the cottage after a long day of hiking and riding the shuttle was a much-needed respite. We truly felt at home and loved our stay. If we come back to Zion, we'll definitely stay here again! Thank you so much, Vickie!
My husband and I stayed in the cottage for 4 nights and we wished we could’ve stayed longer. It’s quiet, comfortable and had everything we needed and then some. You will not be disappointed if you’re looking to get away from the crowds and stay someplace off the grid. The owners really go out of their way to make sure you feel right at home. Lots of hiking to be done in the area as well so you don’t need to go into the main park (Zion).
My wife and I truly loved our brief stay at this property. The cottage was absolutely charming, comfortable and surrounded by beauty. Vickie was extremely accommodating when our airline set us back half a day and we had to arrive in the middle of the night. Never have we been so grateful to see a warm, comfortable and well lit place waiting for us. Nice little extras throughout the cottage made our time feel very special as did the advice about local hikes that we might not otherwise have known about. Very special place.
Our hosts Vickie and Hank were absolutely wonderful! The cottage was so meticulously decorated and the pictures surely do not do it justice!! There were so many thoughtful touches in the cottage from condiments and staples to Enhance the groceries we brought to the thoughtful little “birthday cake bites” so elegantly displayed for my birthday! Their ranch is spectacular and I absolutely loved their big Pyrenees/Bernard dog Wickie! We had a splendid, restful and peaceful time and so close to everything we wanted to visit without the hassle of crowds! Would absolutely come back!!
