Summary:
Imagine waking up to the grandeur of southern Utah! The Barn Loft, just 7 miles east of Kanab, offers an extraordinary escape. Nestled against magnificent red cliffs, you'll experience tranquility and seclusion, far from the everyday hustle. You'll enjoy incredible red cliff views, private hiking in the sagebrush, pines, and cedars on deer trails with access to BLM and Grand Staircase cliffs, and dark night skies for amazing stargazing! Enjoy a location that's central to Zion, Bryce Canyon, Lake Powell, the North Rim of the Grand Canyon and more! Note: the owners of the home live up the street so please be mindful of them and their privacy.
The Space:
Your home away from home awaits at the Barn Loft! This cozy retreat features everything you need for a memorable stay, including a fully equipped kitchen (dishwasher, full-size fridge, stove, microwave, coffee maker, blender, toaster, and all the pots, pans, and baking dishes you could want). A convenient laptop area is perfect for staying connected. Enjoy a restful night's sleep in the queen bedroom, with additional sleeping space on the convertible futon in the living room. But the true highlight? The private balcony, ideal for mesmerizing stargazing under the vast Utah sky or soaking in the vibrant hues of a morning sunrise against the striking red cliffs.

Guest Access:
Our guests will have plenty of room to park, use of the deck and yard, and the entire loft. Please keep in mind that this is a loft on top of a barn so guests will have to climb 27 steep stairs to access house.
The Neighborhood:
Located out east of town where you will have plenty of peace, quiet and privacy. Owner lives on the property in a house nearby. Guests will have the opportunity to hike all over in 40 acres of private land. Up the canyon certain times of the year, there is a nice spring. There are lots of deer trails to follow as well. Please keep in mind that there are cows on the property certain times of the year, mainly in spring and summer (May-July). Please be aware that if we get a lot of rain, sometimes the dips/washes are unpassable so please don't attempt to drive a car through until the flooding stops and the dips/washes are cleared out.
There's plenty to do with state and national parks nearby, but if you're looking for something more low-key for a day or two, consider the local hikes featured on the flyers in our house book: Squaw, Bunting and K-hill, all offering wonderful views. As well, Jacob Hamblin park has a playground, field, pool with slides, splash pad, and tennis/pickleball courts; Kanab City Library is nearby and often has books for sale; Ranchos Park has great baseball fields; Best Friends Animal Sanctuary has great guided tours (they welcome donations). Also consider the local restaurants, bakeries, and ice cream shops. We love some of the local tour companies; they can make your travel time far more productive and enjoyable. Many of them even offer early morning pick-ups from Kanab.
Equestrian and biking trails are also available.
