Description
PRICE REDUCED! Located along the paved Bicknell Bottoms Road and set back from Highway 24, this 3± acre parcel offers an exceptional opportunity for a turnkey short-term rental (STR) business with immediate income and significant room to scale. The property currently features one completed 576 sq. ft. all-electric STR unit and zoning plus infrastructure already in place for two additional units, each on its own 1+ acre lot.
The setting blends quiet surroundings with sweeping views of red-rock cliffs, white-rock formations, green valley bottoms, and multiple mountain ranges. With the property’s elevated vantage points and unobstructed 360-degree scenery, the location provides a uniquely attractive environment for guests and owners alike.
Recreation, Public Lands & Regional Attractions
The region is a gateway to some of the most diverse public lands in Utah:
Fishlake National Forest (North) – 515,000+ acres beginning at Thousand Lake Mountain
Capitol Reef National Park (East) – 241,904 acres; only minutes away and welcoming a record 1.4+ million visits in 2024
Boulder Mountain / Dixie National Forest (South) – 700,000+ contiguous acres
BLM & State Trust Lands (West) – Over 500,000 acres of additional open public access
Combined, this creates 300+ square miles of recreation within minutes of the property, offering access to hiking, off-roading, sightseeing, hunting, and exploring the region’s dramatic landscapes.
The area is also recognized as a dark-sky region, making it ideal for star viewing and nighttime photography, with exceptionally low light pollution and clear views of the surrounding cliffs and mountains.
Bicknell Bottoms Wildlife Management Area
Directly across the road lies the 670-acre Bicknell Bottoms WMA, renowned for its managed habitat, diverse bird species, and scenic waterways. Ducks, geese, pheasants, quail, and a variety of non-game birds are commonly observed throughout the area.
Two waterways—Pine Creek and the Fremont River—flow through the bottoms, creating habitat that supports various trout species. A portion of the Fremont River in this area has been described as one of Utah’s best 1-mile stretches of trophy trout water.
Income & Development Potential
The existing STR unit allows a new owner to immediately generate revenue while completing the remaining two units. With utilities and groundwork already initiated, development time and cost can be reduced significantly. The zoning and layout create a streamlined pathway for scaling the operation into a multi-unit rental business.
