We had the two bedroom cabin and it worked well for two parents and three kids. The cabin is small but well designed, very clean modern bathroom and shower. The main lodge is so cute and the restaurant excellent. Wish we had more time to spend at the resort. The advantage of staying on East side of Zion is the drive into the park is beautiful and also there is no line at the entrance of the park (unlike the main other entrance).
What a beautiful property. The tiny home was spectacular! Stargazing is a must!

5 on activities. Kids had fun and tried many new things
5 on location. amazing!
staff was polite
quite expensive for what you get; some areas need maintenance & replacement
wind blew the wrong way for half our time, so it smelled like sewage at our cabin making it hard to sit on the cabin or open windows
Exceeded our expectations. The tiny home wasn't so tiny! Staff were extremely helpful. I only wish we had found this place while our kids were younger, they would have loved everything there is to do there! Highly recommend.
The room was spacious and spotless, and the staff were so friendly and welcoming! We really enjoyed relaxing in the hot tub, and the food was absolutely delicious. Our short stay was filled with wonderful memories. If you’re on your way to Zion Canyon or Bryce Canyon definitely stop by and check this place out-it’s truly worth it. We would love to return again in the future!
We only spent 2 nights. This would have been a great place to spend our whole vacation. So close to the state park, beautiful scenery, the staff were amazing, friendly knowledgeable. Loved it!!

Great Family place with a lot of fun things to do with our kids.
The resort has path to observation point and you can literally walk to Zion NP. Can’t wait to go back and just walk the whole Zion from this basecamp!!
Awesome views and a ton of activities to do. Food was pricey but good. We did the horseback trail ride and it was super cool. Whether you want to chill by the pool or do it all. This place has everything
The staff was extremely nice and willing to help every time I have questions. Accommodations are wonderful location is great. Will recommend to friends and family.

Disliked: Cleanliness
Staff was super nice but the shared bathrooms were pretty dirty. The showers had no soaps and needed to be cleaned. For the price of the glamping side I would expect a better bathroom. Not all the amenities were open in November which also made the price seem not worth it. The drive to Zion shuttle was 45 min. It was a great atmosphere otherwise and a nice break from the crowds.
Very nice resort. Family friendly with so much to do, 2 swimming pools, miniature golf, kayaking in a large pond, rock wall, playground, gift shop, and several other activities. They also have East Zion Adventures on site. They have casual dining options and the food was very good. They offer numerous options for lodging at very reasonable price points. The sunset colors were stunning. Definitely would stay here again.
