Our visit with our 3 boys will produce lasting memories. Comfortable cabins with rustic cache', marshmallows grilled on a campfire with the smell of juniper wood, starry nights that we cannot begin to describe, an unforgettable tasty BBQ dinner cooked with pride and great attention to detail. Bill made countless recommendations for hikes. We felt very welcome and it is obvious that the Havens are doing this because they love it and because they fell in love with the beautiful surroundings. It was a peaceful, serene moment for the family which we will surely recommend to our friends. If you only stay on the beaten path in this part of Utah - you will miss out on what was truly an enriching experience.

House on Fire Ruin

One of our favorite day hikes is in SOUTH MULE CANYON. There are several ruins in this beautiful canyon. It is a very easy walk for you and for children. You can make it a half day hike or an all day adventure. There are many places to eat lunch and be inspired by nature and the ancient culture that lived here 700 to 1,000 years ago.
