Escape to East Zion is a great alternative to the Springdale resorts. This quiet, cosy and modern cabin-on-a-stick was (nearly) everything we hoped for and more! Springdale is a much nicer town than Orderville, and is quite a bit closer to the Zion Visitor's Center, but Escape felt off the beaten path...in a good way! We were pleasantly surprised by the comfy bed, spacious bathroom, large open windows, well-equipped kitchenette, and personal flair that you just don't get at big hotels. Note that the quickest Google Maps route from Vegas will lead you all the way through Zion, which cost nothing when we went due to the Government Shutdown, but is normally $35 for all thoroughfare. If driving at night, be mindful of the deer!
