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!!

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.

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!

An unforgettable stay

The ranch far exceeded our expectations — we were simply in awe of the beautiful property and perfectly appointed barn. It was just me and my boyfriend on this trip, but we could see how the space could be just as accommodating for a larger group of couples or a family. The location was a very manageable (and scenic) 30 minute drive from Capitol Reef, which we explored each day of our stay. We would love to come back to Elk Valley and do it all again!

Capitol reef stay

This is a "MUST STAY" for your family gatherings!!

This is a beautiful place to stay. The inside of the barn is absolutely gorgeous! It had plenty of room for all 23 of our family. All the adults had a bed and the loft held all 15 grandkids. There were all the cooking things needed. There was a very nice, large gas barbeque. There are not places to eat out right there, but are a few small towns close by. We took our own food and that worked out great. The surroundings are so beautiful and it was very private. There were lots of places to walk and play. We went to Capitol Reef one day (only 10 miles away) and spent the rest of the time hanging out at the ranch. Our grandkids want to go again. The Dietleins were such great hosts and wanted to make sure that we took full advantage of all the ranch had to offer. There were hills to climb and beautiful walking places. The kids had a great time with the pool table. Even though we had a little rain while we were there, we had an awesome time. There was plenty of room for us to "just hang out" and that was what the kids wanted to do most. This was our first time renting and we had such a great time that we will do it again for sure. We will definitely come here again. Thank you Sandy and Allen for sharing your beautiful place with us and for making sure we had everything we needed. I would really recommend this for a family vacation!! Carol Stilson - Orangeville, Utah

Incredible! Simply Incredible

What an awesome place to spend a few days while visiting Capitol Reef. The barn is such a warm open space that fosters family time together and was perfect for our family. Dads cooking in the gourmet kitchen, moms reading in the warm sunlight beside the bay window, and the boys (6&8) are exploring everything, finding every secret nook. The farm is idilic. Cows, pigs, cats, dogs, cranes, and deer all came and went during our stay. The snow lingered on the mountain tops in the distance while we sat around the fire ring and roasted marshmallows in the chilly evenings. We hiked down to the lower 180, a beautiful pasture that buts up to the national park and then caught the sunset from atop the hill behind the barn - awesome views. The barn is about as comfortable and welcoming as you could want. Its a very open space that has more than enough room for large groups but is still perfect for a family to stay connected. There are lofts for the kids to have their own space and still keep in touch with whats happening downstairs. All the furnishings are rustic but elegant, and add to the Butch and Cassidy feel of the place. Im sure if those two stayed here, they never would have started robbing banks. The barn sits in a quiet, out of the way corner of the ranch which has easy access to the main road and is only about 15 minutes from the park. Torrey is nearby and has anything you could need. I wouldn't pass on Slackers milk shakes. All our needs were taken care of quickly by Ariel the ranch manger and Sandy kept checking in on us during our stay. The was the first stop in our southwest Utah tour and it couldn't have been any better.

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!
