We love to hike the nearby trails and appreciate your stay as the funds are going to restoring the home and to keeping it family owned. We have also recently purchased a brand new game table for guests to enjoy while in the home with Foosball, pool and air hockey! Lots of other board games and movies come ready. We hope you enjoy your stay!

Great old house

We enjoyed the house. It had lots of history. Only thing I would change is that I would like black out curtain. Lights from the cars come right into the bedroom and there is a street light that is shines into the bedrooms. In the morning the sun light is in the rooms. Other then that we loved the house.

Unique house in Escalante

We had a wonderful vacation in this historic house. We truly enjoyed coming back there after exploring hiking trails and off-road trails. It’s charming atmosphere and modern touches like central AC/heating, TV were nice to have. We appreciated reading a history of the house and a Pioneer family. Thank you for sharing with us. We hope to be back!

Girls hiking trip

This house was immaculate and amazing in every way. Loved the history and write-up from the families that lived there. Very comfortable living space, comfy beds. We loved the architecture style and the glass transoms above the doors. The neighborhood was very nice and walkable into town. We were very happy to spend time in the Pioneer home. We had excellent meals at Escalante Outfitters, Magnolia's Kitchen for breakfast, North Creek Grill, 4th West pub and of course, ice cream at Nemo's. Kiva Koffeehouse had amazing views, and further toward Boulder, we ate at Hell's Backbone Grill, all fantastic. Escalante Grand Staircase Nat'l Monument has a fraction of the visitors that the national park sees and it was a joy to have the hiking trails pretty much to ourselves.

Great Stay!

We had a wonderful, relaxing stay in Escalante. The house is walking distance to restaurants in town but in a very quiet neighborhood. We had an easy drive to Bryce Canyon National Park as well as close access to Grand Escalante and Escalante Petrified Forest State Park and Posey Lake. The beds were very comfortable and the backyard was nice to relax in and unwind at the end of the day. We will definitely stay here on our next visit to the area!

This very attractive and comfortable house is even better than it looks in the photos. We loved it, loved that it has a history almost as old as the town. Manager was an effective and prompt communicator. House is well equipped. We would stay here again in a heartbeat.

Comfortable, clean house convenient to all the sights around Escalante

I wasn't sure what it would be like to stay in a house so old (built around the turn of the century), but it was great. We stayed for around 3 weeks to do all the hikes/camping/backpacking I've been dreaming of doing in the Escalante area. It was the perfect home base for that. The owners have updated enough to make it comfortable (new hot water heater, central heating with Nest thermostat, fiber internet), while preserving the historical charm. You can read about the history of the house and family on the walls and it is very interesting. I brought my laptop and was able to work remotely from the house. The internet speed was great -- I did conference calls, etc. with no issues. The kitchen is pretty basic -- stove/oven are old, but functional, counter space is limited for food prep, but had everything I needed to do some cooking. My only suggestion for the owners would be to replace the TV. It has all the streaming apps on it (Netflix, Hulu, etc.) but the TV itself is SLOW. The internet is fast, so the streaming is not a problem, but just clicking around the apps on the TV is painful. Overall, we had a great stay.

Pleasant stay, historic home

Very nice historic home, had every thing we needed, comfortable beds, decent kitchen. Lots of nice touches like the petrified wood pieces lining the walkway. Escalante is rural and a little remote which is what we like but town had everything we needed. I recommend this property. Kasia supplied us with lots of valuable tips about the area. Pet friendly.
