We had such a lovely time. Everything was clean, cozy and peaceful. It was just what we needed to rest and relax. We hope to return one day. It's the perfect location between Zion and Bryce Canyons.

The property was what we were hoping for. Great location for visiting Bryce, Zion and the North rim of the Grand Canyon. Very quiet and the skies at night were amazing. If you have never seen the Milky Way, you are in for a treat! Not many places to eat out at, which wasn’t a big problem for us as we usually prepare our own meals. Dave and Karen are wonderful people and we enjoyed talking with them both. We were kind of sad when it was time to leave, which usually doesn’t happen!

Cabin was perfect for a family trip to the national parks. Right in the middle of Zion and Bryce. One hour drive to each and it goes quick because the scenery is beautiful. We also did the north Rim of the Grand Canyon which is more of a hike but doable. We were worried about no A/C at the cabin because there was a heatwave during our stay (110 at Zion) but the cabin is shaded a lot of the day. Just close it up during the day and open the windows in the evening and it gets cold. Our kids actually complained about being too cold in the morning. The cabin was clean and the beds were comfortable. You are on the horse ranch but the cabin is secluded and we never saw anyone unless we went down to look at the horses. Kids loved the bunk beds, having two full bathrooms was great, cabin was well appointed. Great stay, highly recommend!

The cabin is so nice and comfortable. It has everything you need and more! Very quiet and private. Nice breeze and beautiful Aspen trees.
We were there to spread my Dad’s remains in the area so the trip was emotional to begin with, and then my horse passed away back at home very unexpectedly. So, not the trip we wanted but I would definitely go back to the Bunkhouse. The family was so kind. I wish we could have spent more time with them.

The little house itself was great. By the pictures I thought there was a field and pond adjacent to the property, but it was further down the road and driveway.
We came late at night so we’re confused about which house and driveway it was. I had difficulty accessing my Vrbo info, so couldn’t review check in procedure.
Cute house though and pleasant surroundings, but not much to do in immediate area for kids.

This was such a beautiful place to stay. It was nestled in a canyon filled with lots of trees. One of the trees had a nest right outside the kitchen window with a family of birds in it. What a neat treat! The place looks like it was just built and the hosts are very kind and friendly. This is a great place to stay to see Zion and Bryce Canyon.

We recently had the pleasure of staying at the cabin nestled between Bryce Canyon and Zion that exceeded all our expectations. From the moment we arrived, we were warmly welcomed and shown around by Dave. We were absolutely captivated by the coziness of this place as well as the tranquility of the surrounding landscape. The cabin itself was a haven of comfort and charm. This place is so cool and peaceful! The location couldn't have been more perfect, offering easy access to both national parks while providing a serene and peaceful retreat.
We were particularly thrilled with the delicious food Sarah served. It was truly a treat for our taste buds. Additionally, we thoroughly enjoyed Dave's company. His friendly demeanor and engaging conversations added an extra special touch to our experience. It was such an incredible experience, and we can confidently say that we will be coming back for more memorable moments in the future!
If you're seeking a peaceful retreat with easy access to two of Utah's most iconic national parks, we highly recommend this cabin!

We had such a wonderful stay at The Bunkhouse. It is perfectly situated between Zion and Bryce and offers all the comforts of home. Dave and Karren were the perfect hosts, told us about the history of their property and offered tips regarding parks, groceries, etc. The Bunkhouse has a great patio with a gas grill and good sized table and chairs. After hiking all day, we utilized the grill most nights. There is a grocery store called Joe's in Panguitch that has a great meat counter along with other staples you will need. There is also a state store in Panguitch if you want a bottle of wine, spirits, or local specialty beers. We would go the extra 10-15 minutes north of Bryce to Panguitch before heading back to Glendale if we needing anything. There is also a great BBQ restaurant in Panguitch called Cowboy's Smokehouse Cafe. We hiked Zion for two days and Bryce for two days. In Zion we hiked the Canyon Overlook Trail and The Narrows. If you plan on hiking the Narrows, make sure you get there EARLY! (Be on the river by 8:00 a.m.) Otherwise, it's like a public pool. Lots of people. You can also rent special boots and socks at Zion Outfitters in Springdale. We picked up our equipment the afternoon before our hike and returned them the next day. You will need a hiking stick! In Bryce we hiked the Rim Trail the first day and went down into the canyon and did the Navajo Loop Trail and Queen's Garden Trail together. Back at the Bunkhouse, make sure you go out on the driveway or walk down by the horse pasture to see the stars! They are incredible. Saw the Milky Way and a shooting star one night. All in all, great place to stay.

We had a great time at the Bunkhouse. It had all the amenities we needed, was perfectly situated between Zion and Bryce parks, and was a perfect spot to wind down after long, hot days. During the height of the summer, the upstairs bedroom gets a bit too warm, but the lower bunk room slept quite comfortably. Highly recommend!

Lovely Cabin
The cabin was tucked away and secluded but was homey and peaceful! The property was so lovely with horses gazing in the front pasture. The hosts were very welcoming with open arms and were always there if you needed anything. The area has a country mountain feel with open wide meadows with wooded terrain. It was wonderful staying here!!!

Karren and Dave are terrific hosts and the Bunkhouse is a fantastic accommodation. Located near Bryce Canyon and Zion the Bunkhouse is great for hikers like myself and my wife. I do not have enough superlatives to describe Karren and Dave, the Bunkhouse and southern Utah. We will be back!

Almost like home was "HappyOurs". In fact, Karren's grandfather painstakingly built the bungalow where he and his family spent many happy hours together, while she was a child. Karren and Dave lovingly restored it, continuing the traditions set by their forebears carving details in each room.
The kitchen was well equipped with measuring tool, sharp knives, plenty of serving/mixing bowls and a few desirable provisions, ie. flour, sugar, coffee.
There was a grill and back porch dining table, a near-by bench under a tree perfect for bird watching and an original front porch that Karren's grandfather had built. Ideally located between Zion, Bryce Canyon, the North Rim of the Grand Canyon and complete with starry nights and friendly host and hostess just next door.

Warm & Welcoming
After 6 days of exploring the National & State Parks in the area, it was always relaxing to retreat to the horses & the setting of Happy Ours Ranch. Dave & Karin were so accommodating in every way. Dave's recommendations for exploring were always right on the mark, right down to the park elevations on the questionable weather days. We were even blessed with a dusting of snow on the fall colored leaves the last day we were there. Icing on the cake! Thank you both for such a nice stay.

Our family of 4 traveled to Utah to explore the national parks - Bryce, Zion and the Grand Canyon. This clean and comfortable cabin (the Bunkhouse) was conveniently located equidistant from Bryce and Zion. It was the perfect place to return home to after each day of hiking. The kitchen is well equipped (we shopped and did most of our own cooking); there's also an outdoor grill. Two bathrooms meant shorter lines for the shower. We had movie nights using the Roku. The hosts, Karen and David, were warm and welcoming. Their own house is a short walk from the Bunkhouse, and they were accessible and responsive to our needs (our son came home with sandals caked in clay after a hike in Zion; they kindly provided hose and scrub brush so we could clean them!). the loft area includes a bedroom with double bed, plus an open space big enough for stashing luggage, doing yoga or working out. While the bunks on the first floor could accommodate additional people, we found the cabin to be the right size for two teenage sons and our ourselves. The space retained a comfortable temperature - we opened windows at night to admit the cool air and closed blinds during the day to keep out the heat. There are fans upstairs to help clear out stuffiness at the end of the day. Note that the Bunkhouse is located at the end of a long dirt road. We were glad to be driving a Jeep Grand Cherokee. We did enjoy seeing the horses on our way in and out. All in all, we would happily return to this well-cared-for get-away.

Friend and colleague and I enjoyed this wonderful property with wonderful hosts Karren and Dave for the fifth time this past week. Whether exploring the incredible landscapes of southern Utah, relaxing and unwinding, or a little of both, you will be thrilled with your stay at the Bunkhouse.
We are already looking forward to visit number 6 next summer!

Prior to and during the stay communication with Dave, Karren, and Maegan was great with quick responses. The Bunkhouse was spotless, no dust on baseboards where you frequently find it. The beds slept fabulously and that is a rare find. The kitchen was well stocked and there were plenty of linens. We were there the last week of July and the Bunkhouse does not have air condition but we never noticed. It was never hot, in fact a little chilly in the mornings. Loved the cozy feel of the Bunkhouse and its history.
The location of the house was perfect to visit Zion, Bryce, and the north rim of the Grand Canyon National Parks. Coral Pink Sand Dunes State Park and Red Canyon were other great finds.
We had a great trip, our seven days was not long enough. Would definitely choose to stay at the Bunkhouse again.
