Kanab stay

We really enjoyed our time here! The townhouse was perfect for our family of 5. We wanted somewhere centrally located to the surrounding parks and sites and this was perfect. The townhouse was very nice, clean, comfortable and had everything we needed. We would definitely stay here again.

We enjoyed staying here and the owner was very responsive to questions. The beds were comfortable and the description of the home was accurate. Would have liked some better cookware but spices were avaliable. Hot tub was mostly packed so didnt get to use much. Overall, we had a great experience and would stay again!

We had a great time in Utah. The house was perfect for us. Had everything we needed plus more. Never stayed anywhere before that had all the extra things that this place provided. It was nice. We left a couple things also for the next people. Kids loved the pool. Loved the local grocery store. We woyld stay again.

Worked perfect for our needs

We were traveling through and stayed the night here. It was a great space that fit our family wonderfully. We didnt receive a door code prior to arrival and had a little trouble getting ahold of our host, but she was very apologetic and kind. My only problem was I just wish there was a high chair, other than that it was very well stocked.

Wonderful Stay!

We had a wonderful stay at The Happy Cactus! It was comfortable, extremely well-equipped, and (most importantly to me) incredibly clean. The family room was awesome for all 5 of us to watch tv together on the huge tv at night. We loved that everyone had a comfortable bed, and the laundry room was great for our National Park laundry :) I appreciated that the house was so well-stocked with shampoo/conditioner, soaps, paper products, detergent, spices, and lots of towels for home and pool. We loved the pool and hot tub, too -- just a 1 minute walk from the front door! We will definitely recommend this home to friends!

Can’t Wait to Stay Again

This is a wonderful place to stay in Kanab. It was beautiful, clean, quiet and cool-all of my criteria for a place to rent. The house is beautifully decorated and had every amenity and all the supplies that you might need. Highly recommend it and hope to stay again. The only caution I would pass along is that I had an accident and unfortunately was in a wheel chair for much of my stay so my daughter looked all around but could find no wheelchair ramp anywhere. Made it a little challenging getting up the curb😂

Great base of operations to see the great parks and monuments

Kanab is a perfect spot from which to branch out and access the national parks and monuments. We saw parts of Zion, Bryce, Escalante/Grand Staircase as well as others. The slot canyons were stupendous. There were quite a few areas that we were not aware of that I was delighted with: Lick Wash, Grand Staircase-Escalante, Buckskin Gulch, Vermilion Cliffs National Monument, Utah, White Pocket also in Vermilion Cliffs (accessible with 4 wheel drive vehicles), Arizona among others. The house was well stocked and tastefully decorated. It was perfect for our family members aged 10-75 years old.
