This Charming Town In Utah Deserves WAY MORE Attention
Have you ever been to Kanab? Maybe you've passed through on your way to Lake Powell. But, have you ever truly stopped and taken in the WHOLE AREA? You're a big dummy if you don't. Kanab is AMAZING, and more people need to know about it! Here are the top reasons you NEED to schedule your trip to Kanab!
Kanab is CLOSE to home!
Kanab is only 80 miles from St. George, 60 miles from Hurricane, and 80 miles from Cedar City. It feels like you've totally gotten away from town and the traffic, but you're still so close to home.
Kanab is GORGEOUS!
Many people don't know that Kanab is also called "Little Hollywood." It got the name because of all the old Westerns that used to be filmed here... And for good reason! It looks JUST LIKE you're watching an old John Wayne movie! In fact, at Historic Parry Lodge, you can stay in the exact hotel ALL those big stars used to stay at. Stars like...
- John Wayne
- Ronald Reagan
- Dean Martin
- Frank Sinatra
- Sammy Davis Jr.
- Clint Eastwood
Old Charming Motels:
Just like the Historic Parry Lodge, there are SO MANY cute and charming motels that will make you feel like you've slipped into Disney's Radiator Springs from 'Cars'. A ton of these motels have been standing for DECADES, and they still look like it. Although most, if not all of the motels have been totally redone, they've managed to keep the charm on the outside looking vintage. Motels like Aiken's Lodge, Sun-N-Sand Motel, and the Canyon's Lodge.
Totally Pet Friendly:
Kanab LOVES their animals. They even have a motel that's designed with your pet in mind! It's called Best Friends Roadhouse & Mercantile, "Where your pets are welcome and expected." They have fenced dog park, splash zone, washing station, slide-out pet beds, treats and more included free! Plus, the rooms are totally redone and immaculate.
It's a PARADISE for the Outdoor Lover:
Kanab has some of the most beautiful red rocks you'll ever see, but it's also a really close drive from Lake Powell, Coral Pink Sand Dunes, Horseshoe Bend, Zion National Park, and the Wave Hike. The beauty is totally unmatched!
