Perfect Little Getaway House

We loved staying at Riley's Retreat because of the convenient and beautiful location, the comfort of the furnishings, and how well stocked the kitchen was. The doggy items provided (bed, blankets, toys, water bowl, and poop bags) were such a nice touch. We would definitely stay here again.

Dog Friendly Property/Fenced Yard!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here. All the amenities you could want in the kitchen, bathroom, etc. Very clean! Our dog was in heaven with her own fenced in yard to play fetch when she wasn’t hiking with us! Close to restaurants, shops and pharmacy. Good home base for visiting national parks.

A Perfect Place to Stay

This house had everything you could possibly want. The beds were comfortable and the kitchen was fully stocked with utensils, pots, pans, plates, etc. They use good tissue and toilet paper, not the rough, cheap brands you have in hotels. The backyard was perfect for a pet. The laundry area was fully stocked with washing pods and dryer sheets. The neighborhood was quiet and the hosts were great. If I'm ever in the Kanab area again, I will try to stay at Riley's Retreat. Highly recommend it.

Perfect location, great stay

This was our 3rd time staying at Riley's Resort. It is clean, comfortable, and extremely convenient to everything. Our dog loves the huge, fenced yard. The location of the driveway makes it easy to load and unload the car. The bed is comfy, with nice linens. The shower has great water pressure and plenty of hot water. This place is great we will make it a 4th time next year.

Easy Access to Everything

The location in town was easy access to grocery stores, restaurants, Kanab Canyon, Paria, Peek-a-boo Slot Canyon, Coral Pink Sand Dunes, etc. The house was perfect for us, fully equipped kitchen and dog bed, water bowl and leashes. Our dogs loved the big, fenced back yard. They felt at ease quickly. Communication with the owner/manager was great. Even messaged us a warning that we would hear a lot of sirens because Kanab HS girls basketball team won State.

Family Vacation

After a very stressful drive across the dessert we were over joyed to find Riley’s retreat to be clean,COOL, and completely furnished for our family. The home is very clean and completely furnished, even more so than described in the listing. We3 were so happy to find the back yard was. Completely enclosed for our little fur children. We were even more impressed that thee kitchen was completely furnished with pretty much any kitchen item you need to make meals! Extremely grateful for this after all the restaurants had a 2 hour wait and we needed to cook dinner! If you are staying in Kanab and plan on eating make dinner reservations in advance! Between the limited dining options and little space, shorter hours and Sundays most dining option are closed you need a completely furnished kitchen.

Great base for touring!

Place was as listed and reviewed. Well stocked and clean. Enjoyed having it for the four of us to unwind in after daily excursions. Our dog loved the fenced yard. Would’ve been nice to have a backyard patio area for sitting there. And a larger bed in master bedroom. Absolutely recommend Riley’s Retreat.

Incredibly pet friendly, great location

I booked this home at the last minute and was really just looking for a place to sleep that allowed pets. I was very surprised by how wonderful this property is. There are fantastic up close views of the red cliffs, a huge fenced backyard and a warm and inviting indoor space. There is a huge binder with information on local trails and other things to do. The kitchen is well stocked. The master bath has a deep tub that is to die for! The a/c works great and there are ceiling fans. Another reviewer complained about the neighborhood which I find quite shocking. I thought it felt very safe and family oriented. There were kids out riding bikes and people out walking and pushing babies in strollers every evening. It was very quiet at night. There is a kind older couple who work in their garden behind the house during the day. The city park is 2 or 3 blocks away and has a pool. Best of all, this is the most pet friendly property I've ever stayed in. There are extra leashes, dog toys, pet blankets for the furniture. My husband and I own a cleaning company and I'm super picky about cleanliness. This home was immaculate and very comfortable. Be aware that the sprinklers come on at 7:30 a.m. and again in the middle of the day. They only run for a few minutes, but it can be a chilly surprise if you aren't expecting them. Check in and check out were super easy. I felt very welcome here and would stay again in a heartbeat.
