Great!but...

My family and I had a great time staying at this property..the only thing that was not good was the sofa bed. it needs to be replaced or fixed. The bottom board was broken with all the nails/staple wires sticking out. Which could cause some serious injury.. But, overall awesome experience with everything you need..

Location and Amenities

This house was in a great location and had great amenities (dishes/dishwasher/laundry/smart tv/etc). It was clean and comfortable and we really enjoyed our time here. The only downfall was the beds. The mattresses are absolutely terrible. Replace those and I’d be willing to book again.

Good “home base” for the area.

While the home itself is six miles east of Kanab and we always had to go through town, it was very convenient. Furniture and linens are pretty basic. Had to request a corkscrew but one was bought and delivered very promptly. The hosts provided great info about hikes, etc. In addition to Bryce, Zion, and the Grand Canyon, we really loved the Mansard Trail that was SO close to the house!

Zion, Bryce and Grand Canyon North Rim.

Mostly fine. Master bathroom shower did not work. It sprayed water from where the shower head was connected. Master bedroom tv was not connected to anything usable. Living room tv buffered constantly and was very frustrating to watch. Found a dirty skillet and two dirty plates. Great proximity to Kanab and the three parks we wanted to hike.

All good

Nice place and conveniently located. Internet didn't work when we go there but a call to the property manager quickly got that fixed. The hot water is scalding hot, so be careful. Other than that, it was a nice, uneventful stay. Just they way we wanted it.

Wonderful Rental

We were visiting family in the area and decided to rent the Brown Family Retreat for our stay. We were not disappointed. The home was located a short distance from Kanab. Close enough to get to stores and restaurants quickly but enough out of town to be quiet and enjoy the stars at night. It is a short drive to Best Friends Animal Sanctuary, Moqui Cave, and hiking trails. The home is beautifully decorated, well maintained and clean. Everything was in working order. The master bedroom has a large closet and an attached bathroom with a soaking tub and shower. There was plenty of room to unpack and feel right at home. The kitchen has everything you could possibly need. Nice appliances, microwave, coffee maker, toaster, etc. We made a dinner for 6 family members and had everything we needed. It was so nice to put everything in the dishwasher after our meal. We also made use of the washer and dryer in the home. The instructions for check in and check out were clear and simple. Any communications/questions I had with the manager, Larry Erdman were answered quickly and professionally. We have rented many properties from VRBO and I would highly recommend this home. We would definitely stay here again when in the area. Thank you Larry!
