Vineyard views from our cozy Montezuma Cabin

Charming one bedroom and one bath cabin with a small loft. Our cabin overlooks the vineyard and large orchards with beautiful canyon walls as the backdrop. We often try to describe our place to outsiders, but words can't put it into perspective. You have to see it and experience it for yourself. There is plenty to see and do so you can spend your whole vacation at the cabin or get out and see all that Southeastern Utah has to offer.
The cabin is approximately 900 sq. ft. The kitchen, dining and living rooms are combined in one open room with cathedral ceilings. The bathroom is separate and has access from the living room or queen bedroom. The queen bed is in a separate room and the double bed is in a loft above the dining room. You can enjoy the morning sun, orchard views and a cup of coffee from the front porch. During the day you can challenge travel mates to a game of Corn Hole or Giant Connect 4. Then end the day on the back deck grilling dinner and eating outside in the fresh air.

Things to know before booking with us.
When you book with us you are not staying with a big corporation that owns many vacation rentals. You are staying at a family-owned ranch, we are your contacts, cleaners, and maintenance crew. We have three rentals, enough to stay busy but not so many that we lose our focus on good customer service. We care deeply about our ranch, our rentals and want your stay to be as amazing as possible.
There is no cell service at the ranch. We do have limited Wi-Fi and a ranch phone for emergencies. We have satellite internet. On a good day, the top download speed is 25mbps, but usually it is a lot slower than that. Our internet cannot support working remotely.
We are located 16 miles southeast of Monticello Utah. It is a 30–40-minute drive to the nearest gas station and grocery store. 10.5 miles of that drive is dirt road. The scenery and peacefulness more than make up for the long trek to town. This may be a deal breaker for some, but I believe that these are two things that make this cabin and location truly special. There is nothing to interrupt the time spent with your company and enjoying the beauty of the canyon.
Dirt Road Conditions – The road is maintained by San Juan County Road Department. During the summer months the road is easy to travel. Winter Guests, December through February AWD or 4WD is required because of snow. November and March weather varies so always check in about road conditions. We do recommend having a good spare tire in your vehicle and if you plan on touring the canyon, high ground clearance is strongly recommended.
Weather – Blanding Utah mirrors our weather and temperatures better than Monticello Utah.
Solar Power – The ranch and cabin are completely off-grid and depend on mother nature to provide our power. This makes power preservation especially important. Only use necessary lights and appliances. The cabin rarely loses power, the system is just too small for some appliances. We do have a backup generator for emergencies.
The primary heat source is a wood burning stove and we provide free firewood to heat the cabin. The bedroom and bathroom have a propane wall unit heater to supplement on those extra chilly nights and mornings.
The cabin does not have a microwave but has a full-size gas range with oven, propane grill and toaster.
The coffee maker is a 12-cup drip coffee maker, and we provide coffee and sugar.
The cabin does not have laundry facilities.
Summer Guests –The cabin does not have air conditioning, but we have fresh canyon air and nice cross breezes. Specifically, July and August guests, we are in the desert, and it can get quite warm. So, if you like it hot, we have your place.
Outdoor Fire Pit - Please bring your own firewood to use the fire pit. We have firewood bundles available for purchase at the Montezuma Market for your convenience.
Smoking is not allowed inside of the cabin. If you choose to smoke outside, please pick up after yourself and be conscious of fire danger and keep the yard and outdoor areas clean and litter free.
We do not allow pets.
Montezuma Market – Located at the ranch, we have fresh organic produce, eggs, preserves, pickles, and juice for sale. We also support local artisans and crafty friends by selling their wares. We accept Cash, Checks, Credit and Debit.
The Grapevine Cave & Lounge is a manmade cave and is shared with 2 other property rentals at Montezuma Canyon Ranch & Vineyards. It is a great place to watch movies, hang out and play games.
We do not have wine available yet. We are steadily working towards that goal.

There are dogs on the ranch, and you may meet them during your stay. The dogs are friendly and not aggressive.
