Photos of Zion Mountain Ranch
Overview
Utah’s Zion National Park is one of the country’s most revered natural parks for its scenic beauty and fantastic landscapes. Nestled within the mountains of the eastern half of the park is the Zion Mountain Ranch. Featuring 53 private cabins and lodges, the resort offers a fantastic way to reconnect with nature.
Cabins and lodges range from the Buffalo Vista cabin, ideal for couples, up to the Holyoak, which can comfortably sleep 15 guests. All of the cabins are built from local wood and filled with rustic Western furniture to further the feel of modern relaxation in the frontier. Each cabin comes with different amenities, designed to appeal to a wide array of guests.
Guests who love the outdoors will be constantly surrounded by amazing recreation. The hotel offers guided horseback riding tours through Zion National Park, for one, two, or four hours. Guides can also be found at the hotel for fly fishing outings, canyoneering, and mountain biking. Guests looking to unwind after a day of exploring the outdoors can book a private massage in the comfort of their own cabin or lodge. A herd of buffalo makes the area around the resort home so guests should keep their eyes peeled as well.
Located on-site is the Cordwood Restaurant, serving elevated and local food always revolving around the seasonal harvest. In fact, since Zion Mountain Ranch is a fully operational ranch, many of the ingredients used at the restaurant are produced right on the grounds, offering a true farm-to-table experience.
Comforting yet rustic lifestyle and a plethora of outdoor activities await guests at the Zion Mountain Ranch.
