About this property

Nuthatch Cabin: A cozy, peaceful cabin bordering Zion National Park

  • Either for a peaceful retreat in quiet solitude or as a jumping off point for climbing, canyoneering, biking, hiking and exploring, this is where your adventure begins. This cozy cabin directly bordering the park, has 2 trailheads nearby with one within walking distance. Observation Point, Cable Mountain and Deer Trap trails access the beautiful East Rim of Zion wilderness and contain the best views of Zion Canyon. Centrally located just 30 minutes from Zion NP’s East entrance, with Bryce National Park, Grand Canyon National Park and Escalante/Grand Staircase National Monument within a half days drive, makes this a perfect base camp for exploring the surrounding beauty.
    If a more peaceful, restorative experience is what you are looking for, sip a glass of wine on the deck with views of Clear Creek Mountain in the distance and the beautiful sunsets of Southwestern Utah. At night, the clear dark skies light up with the many stars and constellations that make Southwest Utah an astronomer’s haven.
    Take a leisurely stroll around the property on the self-guided nature trail with information about the common native plants and wildlife viewing from a bench overlooking the Zion NP Park property. In the Spring, we have counted 46 different species of birds that pass through on their migration north. Relax in the hammock located in the cool shady fenced yard and breathe in the clear mountain air and escape the summer crowds. This area is a hidden gem that needs to be experienced.
    Visitors have unrestricted access to the cabin and it’s 1.3-acre property. The cabin has 2 bedrooms with a queen bed in each and a twin fold out couch bed for 1, 2 full bathrooms with tub and shower and a full kitchen with all the necessary equipment to make your stay easy and comfortable, your home away from home. Washer/dryer for your use with laundry soap is included. Close by, the Ponderosa Resort offers many amenities, tennis courts, miniature golf, pool and jacuzzi. There's a daily fee. Check their website for activities and fees.

Nuthatch Cabin was the perfect stay for our family! It’s 45 minutes to so many things, including the main visitor center of Zion but it felt so much further out than that! The cabin is even more special than described, with lovely little touches throughout the incredibly clean house. Our youngest enjoyed making a fort under the stairs, I enjoyed the short nature trail, and my oldest was alll about the hammock spot. It was such a relaxing place to return to at the end of long hot days.Communication with our host was easy and she made finding the place super simple despite the gravel road access.

Our 2 nights here while visiting Zion was made even better by our time at Nuthatch! The place was immaculately clean, had all the amenities one could want or need, and the turkeys whenever we came home made our boys happy each time! You can see the care made to the place by Lynn. Very easy to communicate and we appreciated everything about our time here. Thank you!

This smallish cabin on 1 acre of land that borders Zion NP is really well done and put together overall. The owner is an artist and naturalist - art is on display in the classy, well done cabin and there is a nature path through the property with a guidebook that links to stops along the way that are identified by rocks with numbers on them.There is an RO system so you can get pure drinking & cooking water there, the kitchen is good as is the bedding and overall comfort. There are at least 5 seating areas outside (really) including one being the deck which has a gas grill on it.This is a super quiet, secluded, really well done cabin. It's in a part of the world with little light pollution. Super relaxing.The cabin is near two hiking trailheads that go into Zion NP, including one trailhead that's just 0.5 miles away. We did the Cable Mountain hike from the cabin - it's absolutely incredible, it ends looking down into the valley 1200' below, a sheer cliff down actually, and looking right at the big bend of the river and right at Angel's Landing. Incredible. The hike is 9.5 miles from the cabin (8.5 miles from the trailhead) and is relatively easy overall.The internet worked well - I had some meetings and Zoom worked. There's a TV with a Roku set-up - you'll just need to sign into your apps - or bring your own TV stick to use.Highly recommended!
