*Please note that VRBO is having an issue on their website showing our property has a pool but we DO NOT HAVE A POOL and have contacted VRBO about this issue multiple times*. Spacious home in Escalante, Utah. Central to various hikes in Grand Staircase monument, Bryce Canyon and other nearby National Parks. We also encourage you to check out the less well known hikes in areas of Boulder that are a short drive- the adventures are endless! Great views to enjoy from the four patios in the evening in this quiet neighborhood. We just completed remodeling this pioneer home with brand new paint and flooring throughout! It is a home that has been in our family for 6 generations since it was built in 1905. We love to hike the nearby trails and appreciate your stay as the funds are going to restoring the home and to keeping it family owned. We have also recently purchased a brand new game table for guests to enjoy while in the home with Foosball, pool and air hockey! Lots of other board games and movies come ready. We hope you enjoy your stay!
The home has been updated with central air and heating, as well as a washer and dryer for your convenience. We do have a fridge, but please note there is no dishwasher or ice maker.

Great restoration in progress
The owners seem in the process of restoring this wonderful old pioneer house, but so far it stops short of the complete remodel that's really needed. The many doors are pretty jenky, some working and some sealed up with duct tape. Some of the appliances are a little tired. The finish work old and patchy. All the "patina" makes it too easy for grime to hide in cracks and corners. All that said, the beds are clean and comfy. The shower is decent. The dining room and family room are excellent spaces for the family to be together. I feel good that my rent money might help the further improvement of this great house.

Napoleon house was charming and in a nice quiet location. Kitchen was fully stocked with everything you night need. Dining room was large and had great light. Heating system had trouble keeping the house up to temperature. Would definitely stay there again

Great old house
We enjoyed the house. It had lots of history. Only thing I would change is that I would like black out curtain. Lights from the cars come right into the bedroom and there is a street light that is shines into the bedrooms. In the morning the sun light is in the rooms. Other then that we loved the house.

Unique house in Escalante
We had a wonderful vacation in this historic house. We truly enjoyed coming back there after exploring hiking trails and off-road trails. It’s charming atmosphere and modern touches like central AC/heating, TV were nice to have. We appreciated reading a history of the house and a Pioneer family. Thank you for sharing with us. We hope to be back!

Girls hiking trip
This house was immaculate and amazing in every way. Loved the history and write-up from the families that lived there. Very comfortable living space, comfy beds. We loved the architecture style and the glass transoms above the doors. The neighborhood was very nice and walkable into town. We were very happy to spend time in the Pioneer home. We had excellent meals at Escalante Outfitters, Magnolia's Kitchen for breakfast, North Creek Grill, 4th West pub and of course, ice cream at Nemo's. Kiva Koffeehouse had amazing views, and further toward Boulder, we ate at Hell's Backbone Grill, all fantastic. Escalante Grand Staircase Nat'l Monument has a fraction of the visitors that the national park sees and it was a joy to have the hiking trails pretty much to ourselves.

Little old house by the forest.
We loved our stay minus the wasps. The location was great! Beautiful yard and porch. The communication with the owner was awesome. Will stay again!!!
We really enjoyed our stay! The view from the back yard was awesome landscape. We enjoyed hearing the cattle down the road from time to time, and listening to crickets. It was a real down-home experience.
