The hosts are really friendly and will give you the best tips on places to eat and things to see. The room we had was enormous and... More

I was suppose to stay 3 days with my family to visit Zions National Park but we ended up spending most of the time inside the Bed and Breakfast. The service was wonderful! Maureen and Warner were very social and very helpful. The view from their house was breath taking and the Virgin river behing the backyard make it even... More

We stayed here May 2012: It's my hobby to research for travelling and it really paid off here. We loved this place. The hosts are very friendly and helpful and certainly not "cool professionals". Our room was beautiful and had a great tub. The pool close to Virgin River is perfect. Very relaxing and still close to Zion. The same... More

We had an awesome time and Maureen and Warner made us feel so welcome, we were like family. They immediately upgraded us to the Anniversary Suite since we got lucky and it... More

We had a 3 night stay and from the moment we arrived, Maureen and Warner made us feel very welcome and at home! Maureen gave us a tour of the lovely house and explained the breakfast vouchers for Wildcat Willies and Oscars which were good places to eat before we explored Zion and Bryce Canyon.

We greatly enjoyed our stay at the Desert Thistle. Maureen and Warner are friendly and helpful hosts; our room was clean, quiet, and comfortable; and the pool very welcome after an adventurous day hiking our way through Zion NP. We greatly enjoyed our 3 night stay at the Desert Thistle.

The hosts, Warner and Maureen are very friendly and take good care of the guests. The house itself is a very nice, large house with roomy kitchen area (with coffee maker, microwave, big fridge and large dining tables), large living room and a swimming pool (which we didn't use...). Nice view from the swimming pool area to the mountains. Large... More
