About this property

A wonderful, secluded 2 story cabin, deck, fire pit, stocked pond for fishing.

Looking for a way to escape the hustle and bustle of everyday life and create memories with your spouse, friends, or family, this is the place to make this happen. Wonderful cabin located just outside of Paradise, Utah 15 minutes to Logan, Utah and 5 minutes to Hyrum Dam. The cabin has two stories. The main level has a great room with leather couches, fully stocked kitchen, half bath, TV with satellite dish, board games, wood burning fire place, air conditioning, large deck with gorgeous views of pond on property and the Little Bear River Bottoms. Basement level has gas stove, electric heat, two bedrooms, both with very comfortable queen beds, and a full bath. Walking outside you will find a patio with a Weber grill and flat top grill for cooking, a large fire pit, a large lawn area for games including volleyball. There is a one-acre pond for fishing, but no swimming or kayaking. Access is down a gravel road. We recommend 4-wheel or all-wheel drive high-clearance vehicles. The cabin sleeps 4 in two queen beds, but has two long leather couches and a leather love seat couch (extra bedding as well) on the main floor where others could sleep and tents are allowed.

2025 Upgrade: We installed a new water system at the cabin. The kitchen sink now has an osmosis filter and the entire cabin has a new filtration system. The water is clean, safe to drink, and should have no sulfur odor.

Great get away
We loved it there! Kids loved fishing even though they didn't catch anything. Close to everything needed, but feels very secluded.

Awesome cabin
I was in the area to participate in the annual SmallSat conference at Utah State University and found this gem just a short drive south of Logan. It would be perfect for a small group for a chill weekend.

Great short stay
We stayed with our kids 5,14 and 16. They had a blast fishing, feeding the horses, at the campfire. Went down to porcupine reservoir to go after trout since only bass were in pond. Our older kids came up for a day and enjoyed playing the yard games and Lounging in the hammocks. We caught several bass, a snake, a cat faced spider. The only con is the smelly hot water… otherwise it was nearly paradise :) thanks for a fun weekend

A hidden slice of Heaven
My wife and I stayed here in October of 2024. We enjoyed every minute of the stay. I caught fish in the pond and had coffee on the deck every morning. We lit a campfire at night and watched some amazing sunsets with the Wellsville mountains in the distance to the west. We took a short drive to Porcupine Reservoir to watch the Kokenee Salmon running up the river in full red spawn colors. We would love to go back and spend more time in that little slice of heaven. Almost Paradise is and understatement for a cabin name here. I also think it's a play on words since its located just outside Paradise Utah. It certainly is PARADISE!!

If you want to see a piece of Heaven, this is the place to stay…your own private sanctuary…a place of serenity & peace. Just what we needed to get away from it all. Thank you for sharing it with us. It is absolutely breathtaking! We love the pond, nature, & picturesque views. The swings and games made our stay complete. We would definitely recommend staying at “Nearly Paradise”!!!

Awesome Cabin in Paradise
Our stay was awesome. We stayed for 3 nights, 4 days, and loved the property. The large wrap-around patio along with the large outdoor areas, pond, and horses was awesome. The property was very clean and welcoming and all the amenities were awesome for a group of 4 adults. Will stay there again in the future.

Great getaway!
We had a great weekend stay here. The kids enjoyed playing games in the yard and catching fish in the pond. There was plenty of room to set up tents in the yard for the kids to sleep and a room for each set of parents. We would definitely stay here again!

From the quiet fields and sunsets to the bass fishing we thoroughly enjoyed our stay! We enjoyed our chats with Bruce and Buddy and loved the new hammocks!

About the host

Hosted by Tasha Obray

Host profile image
Bruce taught at the University of Kentucky in the Department of Restorative Dentistry. He was diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis in 1972 and labeled disabled in 1982 which ended his dental career. The family moved back home to Paradise, Utah, for family support in raising their five children, ages three to ten. Margie began her teaching career at Mountain Crest High School. They have all grown with families of their own and they still love the cabin and treasure memories they have as they grew.

Why they chose this property

This property was sold from a larger land parcel and did not have road access. In the beginning it had a small pond, an unattended cabin in a rough, weedy area. Bruce and Margie saw the possibilities from the beginning - a place, if developed, which could be an escape from the tense circumstances of everyday life, a place of peace and a return to nature so one could evaluate one's life journey. The ten-acre plot of land was Bruce's way to provide a place to be together and to work together as the family grew. All members of the family worked hard to create, over the years, a beautiful cabin area that it is today.

What makes this property unique

Description from someone who stayed at the cabin in 2019.
"I have laid in this hammock for two hours, listening to the water cascading into the pond, to geese honking as they fly up the valley, to Sand Hill Cranes beyond the pond and two wild turkeys, but I don't know where they are. In every direction I look it is absolutely isolated and beautiful. I watched the cows and calves feeding in the pasture, watched all kinds of birds and two large Red-Tailed Hawks circling and landing in a bare branched tree top about one-half block away on the hillside. I've watched the horses behind the fence as they watched me almost as intently as I watched them. No, this is not Nearly Paradise, this is Paradise."
