About this house rental



Welcome to the Indian Ridge Lodge, run by the Maxfield family, who lives here year-around. This is a rustic, remote bed and breakfast on 160 acres in rural Sanpete County with five themed bedrooms, a game room, and a 2,000 square foot great room. The Game Room is complete with pool table, foosball table, ping-pong table, couches, etc. We are conveniently located between Manti and Provo, just far enough from each for excellent stargazing on clear nights.

This rental includes a full, hot breakfast for 16, served sometime between 8:00 and 9:30 (contact us to arrange exact breakfast time), or we can serve up a little breakfast snack if you want breakfast between 6:00 and 8:00. (It wouldn't be nearly as good, so we don't recommend it.) :) Breakfasts for groups larger than 16 may be arranged ahead of time for $8 per additional person.

The charming bedrooms are located on the basement level that houses the Game Room, while the 2,000 square foot Great Room is on the main floor. The main floor is great for handicapped-accessibility, but the basement is accessed via the code-compliant staircase. If you have difficulty traversing stairs, we can show you how to get in and out of the basement through an unfinished storage room but it wouldn't be very glamorous or convenient for you. Please contact us for more details if there's any possibility of this being a concern.

All rooms have at least one bunk, and all bunks are carpeted -- we do not provide foam pads. We recommend bringing your own gear for the bunks but if you forget a sleeping bag or two, sleeping bag rentals are $10 each for entire stay, without regard to length of stay.

Maximum overnight occupancy for the entire place is 40 or so (including children) with people sleeping on bunks, futons, etc. (Please thoroughly review accommodations and make sure they are satisfactory before booking, as this number includes 2 people on each queen and double, and a child on each bunk.)

There is seating for over sixty in the Great Room, so events like weddings and receptions can be held with as many as two hundred people or more in an open house format where everyone doesn't show up at the same time.

In addition to the bathrooms inside each of the five bedrooms, there is a handicapped-accessible family restroom on the main level, and in the basement we have a four stall women's restroom, and a three stall men's restroom. Access to the kitchen is available so you can prepare your own lunches and/or dinners or contact us to give you a quote on catering. Either way, please make sure to communicate with us so everyone is on the same page -- even the nearest small-town grocery is still nearly twenty miles away.

Check-in is from 3:00-8:00 PM and Check-out is 11:00 AM. It may be possible to make special arrangements with advanced notice; please check with us BEFORE you book if you want us to make an exception, and please let us know ASAP if you are running late.

Contact us with any inquiries you may have. We are happy to hear from you and see if we can accommodate your specific needs. Once you get here, we should be around and available to answer any of your questions since we live full-time in the end of the Lodge that we don't rent out.

This place serves as a great pad to launch you into nearby Skyline Drive, historic Milburn, scenic Nebo Loop, renowned Maple Canyon (known for its rock-climbing), stunning Spring City, etc., and it's about forty minutes from Manti. Other tourist attractions include nearby fishing, hiking, mountain climbing, cycling, ATV trails, and elk ranches. Fifteen minutes away are Fairview's Museum and public park, which is complete with tennis courts, basketball courts, and a playground. We are also within twenty-five minutes of a golf course and a swimming pool.

Alternatively, the lounge areas with five freestanding stoves in the great room, game room, and cozy mini-library make this lodge an inviting place if you're looking for a comfortable place to just chill and unplug; far, far away from the cares of the city, news, and television.

Off-grid location!

We are completely isolated from any power company, and harvest our power from the sun and wind. We do have a beefy battery and back-up generator to fill in the gaps.

Free Wifi is included with stay.

Unfortunately, we do not have facilities to accommodate pets indoors or outdoors.

This facility is non-smoking but we do have cigarette disposal receptacles outside for your convenience.

Great space to gather for a family reunion. We enjoyed 4-wheeling right from the property, watching movies on the big screen (and the popcorn was awesome!). Very nice firepits and nice landscaping.

This is our second time staying here with our family. Plenty of room for everyone! (Grandparents, siblings, cousins, etc). We loved relaxing on the back porch and star gazing at night. Kristen and Jason are very nice and great to communicate with. (And their breakfasts are delicious!) Lots of fun memories made again. Would stay again!

This is an excellent location for family reunions and get togethers. I had a family reunion there recently and had close to 60 people that were all comfortably accommodated for. Plenty of space with living spaces to sit and talk, or to have some of the kids go down stairs and play pool, ping pong of foosball. Never felt cramped. The counter/serving area was ideal to lay out breakfast, lunch and dinner and make it all easy to ensure that food was never an issue. This was a great place and loved the cozy feel. The owners were wonderful and easy to work with. If you looking for a good place that isn't too far away this is a wonderful location.

We normally like to have our family reunion off the grid, tent style... but as our parents get older, that type of camping is getting harder and harder. This year, we decided to try something new and we happened to find the Indian Ridge Lodge which served as the perfect location for our family to gather for a few days. It also enabled our parents to come and stay the entire time. The accommodations were great and the hosts super friendly. It was a great getaway! Thank you!
