Just Outside A Bryce Canyon National Park Entrance Is This Very Affordable Rustic Little Lodge
A visit to a national park doesn't normally require luxury. If you're not camping in a tent, a hotel or lodge that provides a solid foundation and clean rooms is all you need. When you spend an entire day out in nature, you'll likely want to come back to a cozy and comfortable place where you can take a nice hot shower, sink into a soft mattress, and decompress. If this is what you're looking for, an adorable little lodge right outside the gates of Bryce Canyon National Park will be happy to deliver.
Bryce View Lodge is located a short three-minute drive from the must-visit national park and provides an affordable option for visitors who prefer a roof over their heads rather than a tent. This unassuming but mighty lodge is propped high on a plateau so guests can admire the natural beauty of Bryce Canyon before they even step into the park. The simple, clean rooms provide the basic necessities so you can come home to a good night's rest after a day exploring one of Utah's Mighty 5.
What you should know about Bryce View Lodge
Bryce View Lodge is part of the historic Ruby's Inn company, which was established over a hundred years ago after its founder, Reuben (Ruby) C. Syrett became smitten with the gorgeous Bryce Canyon and decided to house its visitors. The company started with tent houses and has grown to host the cozy lodges and hotels we see by Bryce Canyon today.
