Great neighborhood and stay
Saint George was one of the fastest growing communities in the US and it shows. There is not much cohesiveness to it, and it's not the quaintest city. But Kayenta (the neighborhood where the casita is located) is really special. Everyone we met while walking around there was extremely nice and friendly, and the layout of the development inspires relaxation and creates a stress free environment. The Casita it self is very nice, and as others have mentioned, is roomier than it looks in the photos. The hosts are great, and the hiking within a 50 mile radius is incredibly beautiful and surprisingly diverse. There is a nice hike just a few hundred feet from the Casita, located by the pickleball courts - great for the morning dog walk. Would definitely stay again and highly recommend if staying in the Saint George area.

Amazing location and views!
This casita is gorgeous. It is surprisingly spacious, comfortable, beautiful, with walls of windows looking out to the bedrock backdrop of the unique Kayenta community. Walk across the street to art shops, Xetava restaurant, bar, and salon. This is a wonderful venue for hiking, cycling, or just enjoying the view. The hosts are welcoming and and wonderful people.

This is my 3rd time staying at this beautiful casita and can't wait until I return again. Coyote Casita is warm and welcoming with spectacular views located in the wonderful Kayenta art village. My pup and I enjoyed walking the beautiful surroundings and hiking Pa`rus trail at Zion national park. Sally is a warm and gracious host who greeted us upon our arrival and was available for anything we might need.

Beautiful casita in beautiful setting
There is nothing negative to say about this place, only that there was a lack of communication with the host. So far with vacation rentals I have always received the address and instructions the day before in an email. In this case I texted the hostess twice without a reply and finally called. I was explained a few things over the phone which were hard to understand and asked to get a text with the information. That didn’t happen. When I arrived at the address that I thought I had been given I called the hostess again and she explained in a complicated way where my entrance was. It would have been so much easier for her and for myself if she had come out and showed me around. I didn’t see the hosts in these 5 days a single time and honestly felt unwelcome. There is a folder with information on a shelf on a side table in the living room which is helpful but if she had pointed that out to me I could have avoided calling her several times as well as parking in the wrong place which turned into a somewhat unpleasant encounter with her son who needed to get in his garage.

Also, great trails right from property for both hiking and mountain biking, and the area is very dog friendly. Sally was always ready to help and responded quickly to any needs/requests. Overall, wonderful place to stay and look forward to returning.

A week in heaven
Sally contacted us early on day of check in to confirm details and let us know our casita was ready. Shortly after we arrived she checked in with us. We needed very little but Sally provided all that requested. As for the casita, it had everything we needed for the week and much more. Absolute comfort in an amazing setting surrounded by the red mountains. We had a private back patio surrounded by a rock wall. It was a great place for star gazing at night and relaxing with our dogs. AND all of this centered in Kayenta Arts Village with wonderful shops and Xetava Gardens Cafe (oh the delicious food). We had most of our meals there. Back to Sally and Sam: we had such a nice visit with them in their casita next door. Our week was everything we hoped for and more.

There are wonderful shops and a great restaurant in the village, along with wonderful places to hike with your pup. I never want to leave once I'm here, I hope to come back next year.
