The Dwellings; Best Place To Stay in La Verkin, UT - Outside Zion National Park
In a little town, just 25 minutes from Zion National Park, sits a modern tiny home property on the rim of the Virgin River, overlooking a beautiful 344-acre park below. The setting is incredible, with views of the emerald-colored river against the backdrop of lava rock cliffs and panoramic views of Pine Valley Mountain.
I know The Dwellings well because it is right around the corner from where I live. We also went on a little staycation to The Dwellings a few summers ago to experience it fully. We loved our stay, and I always recommend The Dwellings to families and travelers visiting Southern Utah.
ABOUT THE DWELLINGS - BEST LODGING OPTION IN LA VERKIN, UT
The Dwellings in La Verkin, Utah is a modern, eco-friendly, tiny home rental property with 13 dwellings and all the familiar comforts and necessities of a home away from home. Inside every dwelling, you will find a great balance of modern designs, classic touches, and technology features.
Each Dwelling has a small kitchen, private patio, and cocktail bar in the backyard. The property is within walking distance of coffee and dining options and has direct access to the Confluence Park Trail. There is a communal fire pit lit seasonally by staff on request, and there is no need to worry about thin walls and noisy neighbors keeping you up at night because the tiny homes are separate from each other.

CONFLUENCE PARK
From The Dwellings you can take a short trail down to Confluence Park. Confluence Park is a 344-acre park that sits in a gorge just below The Dwellings. The Confluence Park Trail runs along the Virgin River with croppings of lava rock, historical buildings, and plenty of areas to play and swim along the river.
There are three entry points to this trail. One route starts at the end of Main Street in Hurricane, one begins at Power Plant Park in La Verkin, and the easiest and flattest trailhead starts at the north end of La Verkin. But if you are staying at The Dwellings you will have your very own access point.
Our favorite thing about Confluence Park is that it leads to a fun area with a sandy beach, picnic benches, a great swimming spot, and a rope swing! What kid doesn't love a rope swing, right?
OUR EXPERIENCE STAYING AT THE DWELLINGS
Our staycation at The Dwellings was such a fun little getaway. The tiny homes are the perfect size for our family of four. I loved the clean and modern design, and the kitchen was fully stocked if we wanted to do a little cooking.
My kiddo's favorite part was the outdoor patio. We ate dinner and cereal in the morning at the wine bar overlooking Confluence Park. With views like that, you gotta take advantage. Watching the sunset from the property in the evening was magical.
One of the best things about The Dwellings is where it is situated. The Dwellings is right next to my two favorite things, River Rock Roasting Company and Confluence Park. After we checked in and explored the property, we headed over to River Rock for a cinnamon roll (the best cinnamon roll you will ever eat), and then we headed down to walk along the river at Confluence Park.
My kiddos love walking along the trail, exploring, swinging at the rope swings, and swimming in the river. Since we live in La Verkin we hang out at Confluence Park a lot.
If you want to explore all that Southern Utah has to offer, I highly recommend making The Dwellings your base camp for adventure. We loved every minute of our stay in this beautiful property with a unique desert setting.
