About this house rental
A beautiful, retreat on 153 acres in Spanish Fork Canyon, with endless opportunities to explore and play. We just added a hot tub, fireplace and game consoles to the house and lots of games to our game shed, we have foosball, air hockey, ping pong and pool! Along side the shed is a large field that has been converted to a campground. We are in prime hunting area as well. This home is a great home base for hunters in the fall. This is a gorgeous area, with a canyon on one end and access to wilderness land on the other. You can sled, snowshoe and cross-country ski in the winter, hike and mountain bike in the summer, or just gaze up at the millions of stars that explode across the sky at night. I fell in love with this property for its incredible views, its seclusion, and the opportunity to connect with the outdoors.
We have a large 20x50 insulated shed near the home with Kitchenette and games with a large camping area beside it. It is a great place to gather outside of the heat of summer or cold of winter. Our campground with a large fire pit is next to the shed. The campground can hold multiple tents and there is parking areas sufficient for a few RV's although we do not have hookups for RVs. If you will have more than 20 guests extra fees may apply, please inquire.
Coming soon on the hayfield bordering the bank of the thistle river, we are creating a cut-your-own Christmas tree farm! We’re excited to preserve this virgin area and share it with the community.
As a safety note, we are on a workings farm with equipment and horses that we access to care for.
We have thistle creek that runs on the property that is great for fishing and wading but water safety measures should be taken. We also are in the mountains where you can enjoy visits from deer, elk, and wild turkeys but should know that rattle snakes are present in this region as well.

The setting for this property is fantastic. Plenty of room for our group of 15, and grandkids had a blast exploring the property. We would return to this property without a doubt .

It was a great place to hang out with friends and relax, secluded and remote without being difficult to access.

Overall a nice comfortable place. Grandkids were crying as we were leaving because they wanted it to last longer.

Amazing location and property. The kitchen was small to prepare for a large group, but there was plenty of seating and outdoor space.
Emailed the owner about check in and received a very timely response.

The theme of our retreat was about ranch-style living. We did some cooking, crafting, hiking and singing 'round the campfire. It was a delight!
The refrigerator is rather small if you are planning to bring enough food for 10 or more. But the table is terrific - we got 14 around it comfortably. And there is an additional fridge in the outbuilding.
The bunks are uncomfortable for people over about 40 years old but children can clamber into and out of them easily.
The internet is unreliable which we found to be a bonus - we just put away our phones and computers and talked to each other!
The views, the sunsets and the stars at night made up for any inconveniences.

Nicely remodeled and Had plenty of bedroom space.for our family of 16. Our adult kids and 7 grandkids. Kitchen and gathering area is small. Needed deck furniture like a table. The large shed where kids rode scooters around was great. Nice creek down below house. Had power outage last night we were there but was in contact with Heather about it. Was close to Spanish Fork where we went to see fireworks on the 24 th. Also spent morning at Scofield reservoir till thunderstorm hit.

We had a fun family reunion here at this cute property. Had plenty of bedrooms for our large group. Kitchen was a small but doable. Large yard and large outbuilding that worked out perfectly for our activities. Fun hikes close by in Diamond Fork Canyon. A/C didn't work too well our first night but we left windows open at night and it cooled the house down so subsequent days A/C worked fine. Gets pretty cool at night there. We had a great time. Thanks!

This location and size of home worked out perfectly for our family! We loved that it was tucked away from other homes so that we could enjoy our time. We got to lay out late at night under the stars near the firepit.
Having the larger garage to use was so nice for crafts, games, meals and indoor basketball!!!
The beds were comfy and set up was great.
Take bug spray and keep window’s closed during dusk hours.

This property is fantastic. It provides such an easy opportunity to disconnect from everything and enjoy the fresh air and quiet of nature. We spotted elk, turkeys, lots of birds, and a herd of deer that was about 30 strong a few times. We enjoyed and will definitely return. The owner is amazing, responsive, and easy to communicate with.

We spent the weekend at the house for a work wellness retreat, and it was the perfect setting! We had ~15 people and the sleeping situation worked out well with plenty of space. The beds are super comfortable, everything is well stocked. We were there during a snowstorm, and the sledding down the road was epic! Kitchen is a little small as mentioned before, and made for some intimate cooking. Also when Heather says 4WD and good tires, that's accurate. We tried getting up in the snow with several AWD vehicles without snow tires and no luck. The lack of (most) cell service made the shuttling a little difficult, so just plan for that (we had people call when they were entering American Fork canyon and met them in 20 min). But it also made it more of a getaway being a little disconnected (there's good wifi though). Heather is very responsive and helpful as well.

We spent Thanksgiving here and had a wonderful stay. Used the fire pit for s’mores and had a birthday party in the recreation center. The extra fridge in the rec center came in handy for all our leftovers. Heather was great to work with and had the place decorated nicely and answered all our questions immediately. We had 9 adults, 7 children under 12 and pets so it was a houseful, but it all worked great. We saw deer everyday of our stay, that was awesome.

Good for a wedding
Our stay was good but the host knew we were having a wedding and there weren’t any extra trash bags and not enough toilet paper. The house is beautiful though and Heather got back to us about our concerns quickly.

Bridal shower get away
Everything was great except that the garbages were not emptied from the previous renters and we were unable to include any of our garbage in them, plus there were no garbage bags for the kitchen garbage. Other than that...great! Would do another group stay.

Family Thanksgiving Trip
We had a great family thanksgiving stay in this home. We had 18 family members to include 7 children. The beds were comfortable and the downstairs living area was a great place for the kids to play or watch movies. Never had an issue with water when showering! It gets HOT with great pressure throughout the home. The kitchen was a little small with this many people trying to do a thanksgiving meal but otherwise I think it would be fine for normal vacation getaways. Heather was in great contact and assisted when ever needed. Since there is not a trash service she did have the trash picked up mid week, and if there was a problem or question, she was quick to respond. The dryer stopped working and they had it replaced the next day. The property is amazing. Lots of places to hike and explore. Beautiful views both day and night. This would be a star gazers paradise!
A few key tips. We underestimated how long the driveway was even after being told. There is cell service but it is low, and when you try to connect multiple devices to the WiFi does buffer. It is a short drive to Spanish Fork which has most stores you would need. If you plan on hiking, we highly recommend Three Forks Hot Springs. It is very close by and amazing! Remember to take a change of clothes so you can get in. Totally worth the hike!

Beautiful views
We had a great time at this property. The views were fantastic both night and day! Everything is new and the house looks very nice. Beds are very comfortable and bathrooms are very clean. The drive up to the house is on a somewhat narrow gravel road up the hill (but maybe that's just because I'm used to living at flat sea level in Florida!). The ruts in the road made it kind of difficult if you don't have a truck or SUV. We loved exploring the property and said hello to the horses every day. Have never seen so many stars at night before! It was perfect for our family, although the kitchen is a little small if you have a larger group. The large yard is great for kids and dogs. Would definitely recommend this property to others!

Disappointed
The location and view were awesome! We really enjoyed being with our family. But, we had paid for 23 people but only had about 12-14 bath towels, no dishcloths, 2 dish towels, a mostly empty bottle of dish soap, not enough real plates/utinsels, etc to eat our meals on real dishes. We didn’t mind using paper goods- except no garbage dumpster. So our garbage was piled on deck, where something got in it at night- till we hauled it away when we left!
Good thing I had packed some garbage bags and paper towels- because I didn’t see any provided. I couldn’t contact the property manager because the internet wouldn’t connect with my phone. We were continually swatting flies in the kitchen and some Clorox wipes would have been nice to wipe off counters. And there were mice in the house..

Great house.
We really enjoyed our stay. The house seems to be newly renovated. The 6 bedrooms were all comfortable and there are nice bathrooms. The house is in a nice secluded area with beautiful views of the mountains. The house is very roomy with 3 levels of living space. The owner was very helpful and answered our questions quickly. We would definitely stay here again.
