GETTING AROUND
TROPIC TRAIL is a great way to hike into Bryce Canyon National Park to see lots of Hoodoos and enjoy a unique hiking experience at the same time. The trailhead is located only about 3 miles from our Guest House.
DIRECTIONS: As you drive out of our Guest House driveway, follow our road back until it intersects with the next road (by the large rock sign). This is the intersection of “Under the Rim” road and “Bryce Way” road. Turn right at this intersection following this dirt road about 2 miles all the way until it dead-ends at the trailhead. When you arrive at the Tropic Trailhead, you will see a parking area where the road ends in a small cul-de-sac. At the national park border fence, is a permanent and safe step-ladder providing easy access over the fence to the Tropic Trail.

THE HIKE: This hike, up into the national park, is about 2.6 miles long. At first, you will traverse a lowland conifer forest section, then arrive at the breathtaking hoodoo rock structures about 2/3 of the way up the trail! The Tropic Trail is one of the “best kept secrets” at Bryce Canyon National Park! This trail will lead you to the famous national park trails: Peekaboo Loop, and Queen’s Garden/Navajo Loop considered by many to be the most beautiful 3-mile hike in the world!

Electric Car Owners: We have a standard electrical outlet conveniently located right next to our driveway for charging your electric car! There are also Tesla Charging Stations on main street in Tropic Town less than 2 miles from our guest house.

Wonderful Place to Visit!
This is a lovely, spacious property. Our family met up with another couple, we used the main house and the couple had the cottage. It was really nice to each have our own spaces, but also the use of the main house's gathering areas. Everything was clean and organized. The neighborhood is very quiet and the views are spectacular. The house is really nicely located. We had a little trouble getting the cottage door to unlock, and the host was very responsive and helpful. Given the opportunity, we would love to stay again!

It was a great place for our extended family to stay. I loved the setting and the rustic atmosphere. I would say that the number of people that could sleep comfortably in the big house was 8 not 10. Also, while we loved having the guest house as an extra place, by itself it would not have been a comfortable place to “hang out.” I would trade out the two chairs for a comfy love sofa. We loved our stay there. It was a wonderful place for us to spend 4 days together in the beautiful Bryce Canyon.

The Hidden Gem of Bryce Canyon
This property is literally in one of the best locations in this town! This property is on a dead-end street in a VERY quiet neighborhood. The beds were comfortable and the kitchen was well equipped. My kids even enjoyed that there was a Roku player. And despite the very warm temperatures, the A/C worked very well. A few key points I had wish I knew before, and the property manager is now well aware, is to be sure the check in info is working by the afternoon. We arrived in town at 11pm, and the customized code didn't show up. Because it was after hours, it was difficult to get someone on the phone. Fortunately (but not fortunate for the owner) one of the doors was left unlocked, and we got in for the night. We did receive the codes the next day and it worked at that point. Also not included in the check out instructions was where to take the garbage. You do have to haul the garbage off site since there's no trash pick up in that neighborhood. The cleaning crew forgot to stock the house with hand soaps. But we did find the storage of cleaning supplies in the other unit. Overall, if VRBO let me, I would have rated this 4.5+ stars, and I would stay here again. Based on my experience with the property manager, I believe they'll take these suggestions and make this property a 5 star experience every time they can.
