Close to National Parks.The Star Garage, Sleep in a Vintage Truck Bed, Cool!
Step back to the '60s. A manly place... but babes are always welcome! Cruzin' in our truck bed is a stay to remember.
➤Perfect base camp for exploring the National Parks (Zion, Bryce, and North Rim Grand Canyon) and all the nearby amazing Desert adventures!
(Please note - VRBO only shows the AVERAGE price, your exact dates may be much different.

You will find everything you need in this well-thought-out studio apartment.
★Unique King size truck bed
★Smart TV
★Dining area
★Well-stocked kitchenette
★Bathroom with walk-in shower
★Luggage landing and lockers
★Charging station/USB outlets
★Laundry facilities
★Private patio with BBQ grill
★Pet-Friendly ($50 pet fee, the yard is NOT fully fenced, please no pets left home alone)
★Lots of creativity
The Star Garage is adjacent to our first vacation home, The Western Star Bungalow. (See the photo of our floor plan) Together we are My Star Vacation Rentals. Each property is private and has its own outdoor space. There is a shared carport and shared laundry room accessed from the outside carport entrance.
Ask about renting both places for a discounted price. The Star Garage sleeps two, The Western Star Bungalow sleeps six for a total of eight.
We are a pet-friendly place to be, but only room for one pet in the Star Garage.
- Pet fee of $50 will be added. Thanks.
- Pets are NOT allowed home alone. (I will send a list of pet sitters if you would like.)
Stream all of your favorites directly through our Smart TV. Our upgraded fiber-optic network means no streaming downtime. We have Netflix and Amazon Prime available. Bring your own passwords for other viewing options with your own accounts. (We do not have direct or Cable TV)
I do have a basic short-term rental agreement that I will email after booking, we ask for a photo ID. You can see the details of that in advance under my 'House Rules".
I also have a $500 security deposit - This IS NOT charged only authorized just in case there is a claim at the end of your stay.
This Garage has come a long way baby! Everywhere you look you will discover one more creation by John. Most every piece has a story to tell. This is his favorite place to be and soon it will be yours too!
For our Best Friends Animal Shelter volunteers - Yes! We do allow Sleepover pets when you are volunteering at the shelter!
Thanks for looking at our listing, please realize the total quoted amount may reflect owner-paid commissions if booking through a third-party online travel site
Cheers, Sherene and John McClellan

About the host
Hosted by Sherene McClellan
-When we married 41 years ago John told me “We may never be rich, but I promise you we will never be bored!”. That was an understatement. Once in a while, I confess, I just want to be a little bored. Life is always an adventure in our family. Recreating this home has been no exception.
John loves to travel and got me hooked. So even though we are both native Utahns, we try and see some part of the world every chance we get.
John also loves to create stuff. An artist at heart! So building the Western Star has been a combination of loves. Attempting to see travel through your eyes as we have created the bungalow has been almost as fun as going somewhere new ourselves.
If you have a hankerin’ to talk about old cars or Rat Fink, give John a call. If you’d rather talk about creating costumes or quilts, Sherene is your gal. We both enjoy ATV riding, back-country hiking, and old movies.
We are so happy to be full-time residents of Kanab since 2022. We have always loved this southern part of the state, done lots of backpacking here, and were thrilled when we had the chance to purchase this home in Kanab at the end of 2015.
We have 4 grown children and 4 grandchildren. Life is good!
We are excited to have you come and share some of the great sites that southern Utah has to offer.
Thanks so much! Sherene

Why they chose this property
We love Kanab and the surrounding areas. So much to see! And the climate is great. Still a change of seasons, but temps. seldom stay as cold as our home in Central Utah.
What makes this property unique
John is a creator and builder! The Studio is truly unique. It has been so much fun to see the fruition of our imaginations come to reality. We wanted to create the type of place we would like to stay.
