Disgusting
Pulled up to place (which is apparently for sale) shortly before check in time, patio furniture on front porch faded, dirty. Grill was not covered, grates were dirty and rusty. Weeds growing from kennel. Windows were dirty, which ruined what would have been a decent view from living room. Looks like it may have been vacant for an extended period of time. I took a look inside to see if it was ready, but bedding was still rolled up on the floor, so housekeeping had obviously not been there so we left and came back at 3:30. Dishes and pots/pans covered with minerals from hard water - no one bothered to wipe them off. gross buildup of minerals on faucets, toilet had not been cleaned. Beds were made (with what appeared to be same bedding rolled up on floor, but I did not inspect it until we were ready to go to bed at ~10:00 PM. We discovered sheets, comforters and pillow cases had numerous oil (?) stains, as if someone had gone to bed covered in oil. We tried to make a clean, usable set of bedding, but were unable to do so. Called owner, wh said "Oh, I'm really sorry that happened, but did not offer to have new bedding brought over, said there was nothing she could do that night. I told her we were leaving and wanted our money back. She said she would look into it in the morning with VRBO and see what they could do! I told her t was on her to make the refund. I called and sent numerous pics to VRBO and I am now awaiting a refund from the health and safety team.

Near Capitol Reef
We enjoyed our stay. The property is as described in the posting. It is located close to Capitol Reef. The closest grocery is about 10 miles so get what you need before arrival. There is a small store which has many things that is closer but is closing for the season soon

We enjoyed staying at this cottage near Bicknell, UT. It was a great base for our explorations of Capitol Reef National Park and Grand Staircase - Escalante area. We enjoyed the views from this location and the sunsets were fantastic. The cottage met all our needs during our stay.

Was a great landing spot in the middle of the places we were going to explore, Capitol Reef, Torrey for food, Boulder Mtn, Thousand Lake Mountain and Fish Lake area. Plus Loa has a good super market for supplies. The kitchen makes it nice to cook your own meals which can save a lot of money to not eat out until you want to.

Family vacation
We had a wonderful stay. This little cottage was perfect for us. The full-over-full bunk bed with trundle bed worked great, and the pull-out sofa was reported to be very comfortable when sleeping with their heads away from the kitchen area. The water heater was sufficient for three good showers before needing to reheat. We enjoyed the outdoor space, and the view at sunset was unbeatable. Danielle was very kind and helpful in her messages. We would definitely come back!

Great little house in close proximity to Capitol Reef National Park
This house was perfect for our needs. I stayed with my kids during a trip to Capitol Reef National Park. My older two stayed in the bunks and I stayed with my little one in the other room. The couch can also convert to a bed although I didn’t use it. It has a small but functional kitchen, full bath, and the living room was plenty big for all four of us to chill and watch TV in the evening. Highly recommend if you’re staying in the area.

Perfect Self-Sufficient Getaway
This was perfect for our needs. Well, it was probably larger than we needed for two people + dog, but cozy and comfortable. The house was clean and the kitchen was supplied with well-maintained pots and pans which allowed us to cook our own food. Exactly what we wanted. And, as others have mentioned, we were visited by the pups. The heeler won our hearts - a very good boy.

Cute Spot Close to Capitol Reef
Great, cute little house to come back to after a day exploring the area. Only about 20mins from the Captiol Reef Visitor's Center. Also in driving distance of the other 4 national parks, although it would be a long day. We even drove to Valley of the Gods and Natural Bridges National Monument in 1 day. There was also an atv trailhead down the road which we didn't explore but seemed like a nice bonus if you have atvs! The kitchen was well stocked and the beds were comfortable. I brought work equipment with me and the wi-fi was great. The owners live next door but leave you to your privacy, except their cute white dog. He is the welcome wagon and will check in with you daily to make sure you are enjoying your stay and loves to be petted. If you stay for an extended period there is a place in Torrey, the Chuckwagon, that has public laundry. They are open seasonally though, so best to check beforehand if you'll need that. Otherwise we took a beautiful drive down to Escalante to do laundry there. The whole are is gorgeous with scenery, really a beautiful place to visit!

Great, quiet location
Cute little place. We loved that it was close to Torrey and Capitol Reef but a little out of the way and secluded and quiet. We enjoyed nightly visits from Tripod and Spuds (2 nice neighbor dogs. Our name for them, not likely right). They sat out on the porch for awhile each night guarding the place for us. It was clean and had everything we needed for a 4 night stay.

We loved our stay here, which was so peaceful. A quick, and pretty drive to Capitol Reef. There were two very nice dogs that came to visit but they don't try to go inside; our kids liked petting them. The surrounding scenery is beautiful. We had a great stay.

Perfect location for exploring!
This was a perfect house for my family of 6 to come rest after exploring Capitol Reef & Escalante! Very clean & peaceful. The only downside was that we didn't bring our fly rods. The house is right next to a stream with some great fly fishing, I wish I would have known.

Good place for Capitol Reef National Park visit, basic home with essential needs but nothing fancy.
We loved the view and the front street was not busy but the home was very basic, nothing fancy at all.
