This was the best place to stay!! Loved all the animals on the property. The Bison heard was so close to our cabin daily, just amazing! The Great Pyrenees dogs keep everyone safe at night! Cordwood restaurant was so tasty with wonderful fresh food. This property just filled me up! Nowhere I would rather stay.

I loved the place, but far away from all the activity in Zion. I guess if you want to be away 30 min anway from all the activities it’s a nice quiet spot. We enjoyed our stay here.

This place is a piece of heaven. Not only a beautiful western ranch, the people working there were top notched. The food in the restaurant is incredible. We also did horseback riding which was fantastic. Highly recommend!

Everything about my visit was wonderful. From checking in, feeding the buffalo, sunset horseback ride, and a fun wonderful bonfire. My cabin was clean and accommodated all of my needs. Kudos to the chef, I had the best meal and the service was friendly and impeccable. I have recommended staying here to all of my friends and would love to be able to come back soon!

Highly recommend staying at Zion Mountain Ranch! I stayed here with my wife and two children for 4 days/3 nights. The cabins are a decent size and beds are very comfortable. Plenty of activities/amenities on site to keep adults and children entertained. And Chef Tim at the restaurant consistently made us the most delicious farm to table meals every day with rotating specials. Looking forward to a future visit!

Very disappointing to pull up to our cabin to see it was stuck behind some scrub with minimal view. The fireplace listed as a highlight of the room on Expedia was non-existent. When I pointed out the lack of both view and fireplace despite the listing, I was told: "Take it up with Expedia." "You know, you could have picked up the phone." and a withering, "I can assure you, you received EXACTLY what you paid for." Belittling. Unprofessional. Rude. Dismissive. After driving around the property, I am convinced we were given the worst cabin. It went from an exciting splurge to a place we could not wait to get out of. This rude man also complained about Expedia making his life difficult when they choose to be listed on here and not take accountability for their listing. Their dogs are aggressive and bark loudly all night long. I tried walking my dog in the dark one morning and one of them came tearing up to our cabin and chased us inside. Pet friendly? The restaurant is AMAZING and worth going out of your way for. The staff were so nice and lovely people all around. They should also work at the front. If ZMR can treat customers like that in these challenging times, they must not need your dollars. There are lots of great places to stay over in Springdale that won't treat anyone like this. Fortunately, we got the bad out of the way early on our 5,300-mile road trip.w

Great place to stay just outside of ZNP. Staff were friendly and accommodating. Cabin style place to stay with gorgeous views while at the on site dinner restaurant as well. Beds were cozy, a/c was wonderful. The shower, though somewhat modern, the water pressure should be toned down a bit, it kinda hurts lol
