Record heat, great stay

Even though Southern Utah was in the middle of a heat wave, and experiencing record temps, our stay at Storyteller's was wonderful. We chose to cut back on some of our outdoor sightseeing, but still had a great time indoors, with all the space and ample things to do at the house and on the property.

Awesome Family Reunion!!!

Loved the grassy area in the back and the king size beds in every room! Great gathering areas inside as well for big groups. There was so much natural light coming in from the windows that family pictures were easy to get done. We had plenty of bathrooms and the manager was incredibly responsive to any issues we came up against. We would definitely stay again!

Pine Valley Lodge Get Together

Roomy, well furnished with entertainment and games, and the kitchen had all necessary amenities. Large enough outside areas for frisbee and night games. We did some hiking along the River Parkway. well worth the visit. Loved the Pine Valley Ward on Sunday.

Pine Calley Lodge is a beautiful place for a retreat!

This is the second time we have stayed at Pine Valley Lodge. Every detail for a large group has been well planned in the design and furnishings of this large lodge. The home is beautiful, comfortable and the views are spectacular! It’s everything and more that we could have asked for. You’ll love it too! Thank you Makeli, Susan and your entire team!

Amazing Stay!

We rented this property for a Christmas get-together for us, our children and grandchildren. The place is fabulous! From its very pleasing curb appeal to its interior filled with amazing log walls, high ceilings, fun game room, huge kitchen, and lots of beds and baths, it couldn’t be more perfect! We were even blessed with several inches of snow and were able to sled just a short distance away. If you want a very family friendly place where you can enjoy quiet and spending time with family, this place is for you! Thank you, Tom, for welcoming us into this special place you have created. We loved it!

Family gathering

The property was amazing we were there for three nights. This was a Christmas gift to my 7 children and 18 Grandchildren and everyone of them were there and we had a wonderful time . Weather was really nice for the first part of the trip and then we got a snow storm that dumped 6 inches of snow which we also enjoyed it was beautiful. The lodge and amenities were amazing we would definitely like to stay again. Only reason I gave four stars for cleanliness was windows were somewhat dirty not a deal breaker.

Family Reunion Fun!

We have a large family and were thrilled to find this location to host a reunion. The weather was pleasant for July and the rooms were ideal for our group. We had all age groups represented. We had young families with babies able to stay upstairs, a main floor room for grandma and grandpa and teens hanging out in the basement with plenty to occupy them. We had organized activities on the lawn and plenty of space in the kitchen and on the deck to spread out during mealtime. The kitchen was well equipped and the great room perfect for visiting. We truly enjoyed our stay and hope to be able to return again next year!

Spectacular

The home, property, and area were absolutely perfect for our family reunion. 18 of us, ages 1-93, had enough space indoors and out to not feel we had to venture anywhere outside the premises. The boys did go fishing a few times at the nearby reservoir, we took short walks, and set up yard games which we all could enjoy. Communication with the owner was easy and respectful. We always pack so many extras, but this property really had most of what we needed; sharp knives, large pots and pans, and trash bags. A fabulous choice and beautiful location for family photos as well. Lastly, the home was very clean, the well water was tasty, and there were 2 large refrigerators and 1 drink fridge.. we couldn’t have asked for more!
