Vermillion Log Cabin Refuge · Kanab, Utah

THE VISION

To infuse this historical cabin with primitive old west charm and modern design. We handpicked each detail including a 100-year-old cobbler’s coffee table, handmade pottery, Navajo sand painting, an intentional library, a record player so you can jam with Loretta Lynn, and more.

With views on every side, we hope as you adventure you will transition into our accommodation feeling wrapped in simplicity and slow living.

Wrap yourself in the spirit of southern Utah in a primitive inspired, cozy log cabin. Immerse yourself in juniper trees and starry nights to disconnect and recharge. This cabin sits on 2.7 acres in red rock desert, walking distance to public lands with hiking trails and cultural heritage sites. Located 5 miles from the lovable town of Kanab, stay in the heart of Utah's best National Parks such as Zion, Bryce Canyon, and Grand Canyon National Parks. Whether you are traveling for a romantic getaway, creative retreat, or adventure basecamp, our goal is to make your trip in the wild west memorable.

Care and thought have been put into every detail. Vermillion Log Cabin Refuge is filled with found objects with stories. We try to reuse, repurpose, buy local, and buy handmade where we can. Don't miss the small details, such as a Moroccan side table brought here in the 1940s. We hope you can feel the presence of the unique stories these objects hold. We also hope you infuse your own story as part of the cabin's fabric.

The Rituals

Grab your pour over cup of high end coffee at dawn and sit at the refinished breakfast table on the front patio as the sun awakes. Hike the Mansard Trail, one of the best local trails near the cabin, to see ancient petroglyphs. In the afternoons lounge and BBQ in a spacious fenced in backyard as the setting sun turns the sandstone cliffs behind the property every wonderful shade of red. Grab a book from the library or meditate in the primary bedroom’s deep jetted soaking tub to soak your bones and relax. Lastly step outside and enjoy the propane fire pit as stars begin to pierce and overwhelm your eyes.

Their

Words

Words wouldn’t do this place justice, but I’ll try! The energy inside the home was palpable. Everything had been chosen with such intention, you could feel it. We went on a little girls trip for a couple of days, and the only downside was that we wish we planned more time there. The giant bathtubs with candles everywhere was an unexpected highlight. Music available through speakers or a record player in each room was a nice touch. Everything in the house spoke to us. The decorations, the handmade dishes, the tea kettles and French press, the tea and spices. We cooked, laughed and vibed the entire time. Everything in nature was spectacular too... Heather was an excellent communicator, and very accommodating. It was a wonderful much-needed carefree weekend!
