About Zion Mountain Ranch

Located only three minutes from the east entrance to Zion National Park, Zion Mountain Ranch is one of the finest lodging properties in the Zion area. It sits at 6,000 feet in elevation and has unlimited beautiful views of the buffalo meadow, as well as beautiful glades of trees and mountains surrounding it. Zion Mountain Ranch owns 300 acres of pristine territory in this unique location. Supplied completely with fresh water from an underground mountain spring, guests at the Ranch can rest assured that they will be treated to the purest water possible during their stay.


Surrounding natural attractions include Dixie National Forest, Bryce Canyon National Park, Grand Staircase National Monument, Glen Canyon National Recreation Area, Capitol Reef National Park, Kaibab National Forest, and Grand Canyon National Park. There are several day trips that can be arranged which makes it easy to enjoy many of these natural attractions. Zion Mountain Ranch also offers several exclusive Ranch packages to make your stay all the more special.

While staying at Zion Mountain Ranch, you can be sure that you will have a very unique experience.  There are many features that are unique to Zion Mountain Ranch, including the incredible surrounding mesa scenery and the buffalo herd right on the property.  The combination of premium quality guest accommodations and beautiful, natural scenery is exactly the right recipe for a fulfilling, relaxing vacation. 

Zion Mountain Ranch is located right in the center of many attractions from national parks to national monuments and recreation areas.  As such, Zion Mountain Ranch acts as the perfect hub for many exciting day trips.

There is a $35.00 park entrance fee (per vehicle), valid for 7 days. This fee is not included in your room rate at Zion Mountain Ranch.

Here are some reasons why guests love Zion Mountain Ranch...

  • Unlike lodging in a tourist town, Zion Mountain Ranch owns 300 acres of pristine acreage. No other businesses are even visible from the Ranch.
  • Staying on the East side of Zion National Park has the advantage of cooler climates, clearer night skies, and much more peaceful surroundings than the west side offers.
  • Zion Mountain Ranch provides lodging unlike anything else in the area. While it sits in the middle of nature, guests need only to step inside their cabin to feel pampered.
  • The entire Ranch is supplied with fresh spring water by an underground mountain spring. Guests both drink and wash in the purest water of Southern Utah.
  • As part of the Ranch, the menu at Cordwood brings guests back again and again. Guests enjoy both buffalo and beef steaks hot off the grill as well as chicken, buffalo burgers, vegetarian fajitas, fresh spring salads, and fantastic desserts. The grill is often complemented by statements that it was the best meal on the trip, which is exactly what the grill strives for.
  • Zion Mountain Ranch owns and maintains a buffalo herd of between 35 and 40 that roams a 600-acre preserve.

What's up with the buffalo at Zion Mountain Ranch?

  • Buffalo (actually American Bison) is the largest North American land mammal.
  • The unregulated slaughter of the buffalo at the end of the 1800s left only 1,500 buffalo.
  • Today, there are approximately 350,000 buffalo in every state of the Union including Hawaii.
  • Buffalo meat is becoming more popular due to the fact that it not only tastes better than beef, but is lower in fat and cholesterol than beef, pork, and chicken.
