A Perfect Family Getaway

We have come to Capitol Reef every year for at least a decade, and this was our first stay at Elk Valley Ranch. It was a beautiful change of scenery! The barn was a perfect space to gather and enjoy our family time together, and it was conveniently located to enjoy the outdoor offerings of the park and other nearby areas. The barn offers so many amenities and fun activities that we were never struggling to fill time. The ranch is so beautiful, and the hosts are so kind to share it with visitors like us. Thank you for allowing us to stay!

Peaceful Stay to Catch up with Childhood Friends

We enjoyed the very peaceful and pretty location. The kids loved the pool table and outdoor firepit. It is a fun and quirky house with a lot of space for a large group. There is ample seating and table space. The contact, Tim, was very kind and friendly. A few suggestions would be to have better directions to the house, have a professional cleaner come between visits, and put more fans in, especially upstairs. It gets quite hot in July. Overall, we enjoyed our stay though and had fun exploring nearby Capital Reef and Fish Lake.

Butch Cassidy Country Ranch

Not only is the area amazing but the ranch is extraordinary! Top location and the hosts were fabulous; gracious, informative, kind and brilliant in how everything is set up! The ranch is set for 1 or 10+. Take the family or friends and explore one of the best areas in all of Utah in comfort, fun, and adventure! I will be back many many times!!

Little slice of heaven

Fun property with the reinvented barn into a rental property. Peaceful surroundings. Close to Capitol Reef NP. Loved wide open first floor with kitchen, dining and living room and pool table all together. Comfortable couches for relaxing with a movie after a day of hiking. We had a great experience!

The Barn

This was our 8th time at the Barn so you know we must love it. Accommodations are great and the scenery, beautiful. Even with windy and rainy conditions we still have an amazing time. We really missed Sandy and her touch this year. 😢

Capitol reef stay

This place was in a great location for our hiking trip to Capitol reef. Short drive to the park. Well equipped kitchen. It was a bit difficult to navigate the circular stairs to the second floor bedrooms. Tim was very helpful.

Peaceful, beautiful stay in a valley ranch

My husband and I thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the Elk Valley Ranch! It was quite magical, to say the least. Enjoying the inside and the outside of the barn were our pleasure! My only complaint was the lack of cooking utensils. Otherwise, we cannot wait to go back!

Peaceful beauty in Utah!

The most peaceful place I have ever stayed!! Not a sound to be heard except birds and the breeze! The barn is stunning and roomy!!! The bathrooms are amazing! The ranch is stunning and the cliffs in the backyard offer you endless exploring! Pickle ball in the evening with the family was always a perfect ending! The only regret is that we didn’t stay longer to just be on the ranch! We will be back!! Thanks Sandy & Terry!

A comfortable and very affordable family get-away

Our family has enjoyed this wonderful accommodation for 6 separate vacation visits. It has always been a look-forward-to priority for each of these years. We have always found it to be extremely clean and comfortable. Our family has shared our experiences and impressions with many people and recommended their consideration for their own visit.

Hidden Treasure

This opportunity is a rare chance to be guests on a breathtaking ranch. Everything was in place for a fantastic few days at Capitol Reef. The two master bedrooms are up an enchanting spiral staircase. My sons loved sleeping in the hidden lofts. The owner was very gracious. Thanks for an amazing stay!
