Things To Do

When you stay with us, you can visit an amazing park or monument every day for a week and still have many more to choose from.

Sightseeing
For spectacular scenery, history and wildlife, visit the parks and try some of the scenic highways and byways in the area (and don't forget to catch the sunset on the beautiful White Cliffs behind Arrowhead). Also look for petroglyphs, Anasazi Indian ruins, pioneer forts, movie sets, art galleries and more nearby.

Test your camera skills at the National Parks and also at photographer hotspots such as Antelope Canyon, the Grand Staircase Escalante National Monument, the Wave, the White Cliffs of Mt. Carmel, Smithsonian Butte and many many others. In addition to the truly awesome scenery of the area, you can also capture (on film, that is) the wild turkeys in our pastures and the deer in the fields, as well as foxes, coyotes, elk, bald and golden eagles, hummingbirds, and the other wildlife that can be spotted nearby.

Hiking
Trails for hiking are available in almost every park and monument. For more information on hiking in the parks, please check out our Itinerary page. For those who wish to stay a little closer to the home base, you can also find hiking trails starting in Arrowhead's back yard that will take you to the base of the nearby White Cliffs.

Fishing
Fish for rainbow trout at Navaho Lake, Panguitch Lake, Duck Creek and Tropic Reservoir or haul in record bass at Lake Powell. Boat rentals are available at Navajo Lake, Panguitch Lake and Lake Powell.
