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.

"Honestly this cabin was more than what was advertised. Down to every little detail it was an experience - not just a place to stay. Firstly, the guide included was SO thorough and thoughtful of the owners. There are maps and trail guides to every place we could have ever thought of within a 2 hour radius of the cabin. Location - even though it was just a few blocks off the main road and easy to access it felt very private and secluded. It was dead silent at night and we had a star show each evening watching the sun set over the red canyons and then the starry night coming out in full force. Each morning I did yoga and meditated in the upstairs loft as the sun flooded the room during sun rise. It was so perfect."
