About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

The Little House

The modern conveniences of The Little House sharply contrast the old-fashioned construction. Original rough sawn ceiling joist are exposed, with the builder's layout marks clearly visible on the ceiling highlight the main living area where you can relax on the sofa. Along with the flat-screen TV, scorching fast 1 gigabit per second fiber internet (1000 Mbps) is available for streaming.
The space
After a day of exploring the mountains or desert around Escalante, wash the trail dust off in a warm shower and let your muscles recover during a peaceful nights rest on the queen size bed. Open the windows at night to experience the 30-40 degree cooldown from the warm temperature of the daytime and the night sounds of a rural community. View the expanse of space from the back patio. When hunger strikes, the well-equipped kitchen boasts a to-scale fridge, range, microwave, sink, and plenty of dishware, so it won't be a struggle whipping up some of your favorite recipes in this small space. In the morning, make yourself a pot of coffee and head outside to watch the sunrise paint the walls of the Escalante River canyon or surrounding mountains.

Key Residence Features:
-Amenities include a well-equipped kitchen, window air-conditioning, flat-screen TV, quality linens & towels, large driveway, mountain views, a fire pit, and more!

Heavenly Little House

Our stay in Melani's little house was fantastic. We enjoyed reading the history of the house. I'm a big fan of perserving the past. The house was thoughtfully stocked and delightfully decorated. Melani and her family suggested a couple of great hikes in the area, and a wonderful place for dinner and breakfast. We hope we can stay in this heavenly little house again. Thank You!!!

Could not have been better!

I cannot recommend the little house highly enough. It is so well done. The couch is comfy, the bed is comfy, great pillows (and I’m a real weirdo about pillows). I loved the way it was decorated! Truly a perfect stay. You will not regret booking this place!

Small but didn't matter.

A Perfect Little Stay

This property was just what we needed! We spent a lot of time out hiking and exploring the area and coming back to a comfy, cozy spot made all the hard hiking easier. Melani was extremely communicative and helpful and the house is perfectly situated within walking distance of all the places you'd like to visit in Escalante when you're not out romping in the wilderness! All in all this was a 10/10 stay!

The "Little House" was perfect for our needs. The owners thought of everything that a visitor would need, down to the salt and pepper shakers. The couch and bed were comfortable. There is a garden where (at the right season) vegetables and fruit are there for the picking. We look forward to returning someday.
