Boulder House | 40 Acre Escalante Canyon Retreat

2 Bedroom House in Boulder, Escalante

Cross Creek Ranch (the property) is part of a 160 acre private in holding in the heart of The Grand Staircase-Escalante National Monument, seated halfway between Bryce Canyon National Park and Capitol Reef National Park. Located where Scenic Highway 12 ('The Golden Loop') crosses the Escalante River, it is the hiking trail head to the renowned Escalante Canyons. The main home and guest house (see vrbo 652481) are the only structures on the last 40 acres downriver before 75 miles of wilderness area that runs all the way to Lake Powell.
This getaway is a 2 bedroom, 2 bath river front home tucked in between large cottonwood shade trees with views on all sides of the Escalante Canyon, meadows, cliffs, and river. The 1300 sq. ft. house sits in a lush riparian oasis surrounded by 600 ft. sandstone cliffs. Hike from the front door to first class scenic wonders.
The 16x28 ft. great room has 15 ft. cathedral ceilings with a massive stone fireplace and a 4x16 ft. built-in window seat. Magnificent views can be seen from the fully equipped kitchen with concrete counter tops, cherry wood cabinets, and stainless steel appliances. The master bedroom with a king bed has a glass wall view of a 200 ft. slick rock pour off, and a glass mosaic tile shower. Beautiful canyon and meadow views can be seen from the second bedroom (queen bed) as well as the spacious 8x30 ft. deck. The home has excellent wi-fi and no TV. A high clearance vehicle is preferable for the concreted low-water river crossing (generally 1 ft. deep).
We are using CDC certified Covid-19 killing disinfectant spray called QA Solution for our guests safety.

Summary: Unlike any place we have stayed. Red rocks out back door and the serenity of Utah's best 360 degrees with the Escalante River.
Karen M. Apr 8, 2025 08:44:06 AM
Summary: My husband and I invited our good friends (another couple) to join us for several days in this beautiful place. The setting is gorgeous with the red rock walls, cottonwoods, Escalante River nearby and dark skies at night. We hiked from the house itself as well as from trailheads a short drive away. We enjoyed cooking together in the well stocked kitchen and hanging out on the lovely deck. The beds were comfortable. The house is very welcoming and lovely !

Summary: What a special home this was to get away from the bustle of life! The river crossing to get to the home was exciting. We found hikes to explore every day with some of our favorites leaving right from the property. Definitely check out Phipps Arch! Some of our favorite things were wading in the Escalante River every day, dinner at Hell's Backbone Grill after hiking Upper Calf Creek Falls, and sourdough pizza lunch at Escalante Outfitters after hiking Lower Calf Creek Falls, staring out the window from the comfy bed, a roaring wood fire when the temps dropped and the amazing views from all windows in the home! It was the perfect spot to play card games with our kids, read, and do a puzzle to pass the time!

Summary: This was such a dream location for our family trip to Grand Staircase-Escalante. The home itself is beautifully designed and decorated. Cozy, comfortable, an amazing fireplace, great beds, everything you need for your visit, and views out *giant* windows in every direction. It's only upstaged by the towering red canyon walls it is surrounded by -- really, hard to describe in words how stunning the location is. Great hikes out the door, or short drives to trailheads, petroglyphs, and even dinosaur tracks. We feel very lucky to have stayed in this home, and cannot recommend it enough to anyone looking for a special experience in the heart of the monument!

Bill S. Jul 24, 2024 10:34:00 AM
Summary: A lovely home in the one of the most beautiful settings you can imagine. My wife and I fell in love with it immediately and hope to return.

Summary: This is an amazing property. We felt privileged to enjoy our time in this very special corner of the spectacular Escalante area. The builders/owners deployed artistic and naturalistic flair to create a fantastic retreat in the middle of a cottonwood grove and red rock canyon. The extra touches, books and art were a pleasure. We would love to spend a month there if we could. Highly recommend.
Jay T. Apr 23, 2024 08:49:57 AM
Summary: We love the home and the area. This is our second stay at this home, and we stayed for ten days to have a real getaway. If you are considering this home, book it! It will exceed your expectations. We want to come back. The descriptions, if anything, understate the experience here.
