Vermillion Vacation: A Comfy Home Away From Home - Pet Friendly
Guest rating: 4.9 / 5
Overview
Vermillion Vacation is a pet-friendly private suite occupying the lower level of a home in Kanab, Arizona, set in a rural, mountainous area near the region's iconic red rock landscape. The unit has its own private entrance beside a dedicated parking space, giving guests a self-contained, home-like stay rather than a traditional hotel experience. With a 4.9 rating from 437 reviews, it stands out as a highly regarded home-away-from-home option in the area.
Rooms & Layout
The suite includes two separate bedrooms and a spacious living area, making it comfortable for small groups or multiple adults traveling together. Large, south-facing windows fill the space with natural light, and a porch offers views of the glowing red rock cliffs at sunset or a quiet spot for morning coffee. A roomy bathroom rounds out the private living quarters.
Kitchen & Amenities
The kitchen comes stocked with a refrigerator, air fryer, toaster, microwave, a Keurig with coffee, tea, and cocoa supplies, spices, cookware, dishes, and a 2-burner stove, letting guests prepare meals independently. Other amenities include air conditioning, heating, cable TV via Roku, free 5G fiber Wi-Fi, free parking with room for two cars plus space for boats or UTVs, and a private patio/porch.
Pet-Friendly Features
This property caters specifically to travelers with pets, offering a porch tie-out, food and water bowls, a clean pet bed, and bedding to protect furniture. Hosts ask that pets be crated when left alone in the space and that guests clean up after their animals, both outside and in case of indoor accidents.
Dining & Location
Kanab's dining scene is within easy walking or short driving distance, including Rocking V Cafe, Houston's Trail's End Restaurant, Iron Horse Restaurant, Adria's Restaurant, Wild Thyme Bistro, Los Tapatios, Peekaboo Canyon Wood Fired Kitchen, Brown Box Cafe, Havana Cabana, and Big Al's Burgers, all under 1.4 km away. Nearby attractions include the Kanab Heritage Museum, Little Hollywood Movie Museum, Old Paria, Downtown Fredonia, and Jacob Hamblin City Park, along with hiking trails and wildlife-watching opportunities.
Best for
This property suits travelers with pets thanks to its tie-out area, pet bedding, and bowls, as well as small groups or families who need two separate bedrooms and a full kitchen for extended stays. It also appeals to road-trippers exploring Kanab's outdoor attractions, hiking trails, and nearby movie and heritage museums, with easy access to a wide variety of nearby dining options.
Travel tips
Guests should note this is a basement-level private suite attached to a host's home, so amenities like a thermostat or full oven may not be available -- confirm details with the host beforehand. The property has dedicated parking for two cars plus extra space for boats or UTVs, useful for those bringing outdoor recreation gear. With three regional airports (St. George, Page, and Cedar City) each roughly 88-96 km away, plan for a highway drive rather than a quick airport transfer.
What guests say
Guests consistently praise this property as a comfortable, private, and homey place to stay, frequently highlighting the impressive view of the red rock landscape from the living room and porch. Several reviewers mention that the space works well for multiple adults or families thanks to the two separate bedrooms and private layout. One recurring point of clarification is that because the unit is the lower level of the host's home, it lacks a few features guests might expect, such as a full oven or a separate thermostat, though guests note everything else needed is provided. Overall sentiment is very positive, with no significant complaints about cleanliness, noise, or service.
