Scott and Barbara are delightful hosts and the accomodations are super. Very convenient to Southern Utah University and Utah Shakespeare Festival.

We go to the Utah Shakespeare Festival annually, and have been regular guests at this property for years. I can vouch for my statement that this is the "Best B & B", because we have stayed at several others through the years, and always find ourselves returning to this great place. I think we're qualified to make that declaration.

Even though it looks like a restored Victorian, the structure was actually a purpose-built B & B with separate quarters for the owners, and easy access for the guests to all the accommodations. The rooms vary in size and layout, from a rather small one with a queen bed to a suite that takes up most of the top floor. We've never felt the need for the suite, but have stayed in several of the other rooms, and have only felt cramped in one of them, mostly due to the way the owners have positioned the bed at an angle that takes up some of the space. Still, the room was nice.

Breakfasts are quite varied, usually involving a casserole of some sort for the main course for the bigger eaters, but you may also simply have some cereal or fruit if that's your preference. We've never been disappointed in anything offered.

A big plus for this B & B is its location relative to the Shakespeare Festival grounds, which are on the campus of Southern Utah University. Two blocks away. And that means two Cedar City (small) blocks, which means unless you absolutely must drive somewhere, you can walk to the plays, to restaurants, coffee shops, etc. We never move our car once we're parked at the B & B.

And, even though this is a B & B review, I feel the need to plug the Shakespeare Festival while I'm writing. If any of you readers are anywhere near Southern Utah during the Summer, make the effort to go see a play or two at this wonderful venue. This isn't just community theater. These are professional actors, who put on excellent productions of not only Shakespeare's works but a great many other authors as well. There is a replica of the Globe Theater outdoors on the campus and two indoor theaters where the plays are presented. Go to www.bard.org to look at their current and upcoming productions. I can't go into too much detail here or I'll be writing all day. But one more thing I must add: this festival won a Tony Award in 2000 for being the best regional theater company in America. That should underscore why I'm such a fan.

Perfect jumping off point for our vacation in the national parks. Owners were so nice - and understanding of our late arrival. Accomodations were warm and inviting and Breakfast was a special treat. Also got great recommendations for routes and sightseeing. I just wish we had more time there!

Gorgeous old mansion filled to the brim with knick-knacks, books, art, stained glass, and furniture. Not for those who prefer modern-minimalist, but charming and fun for exploring to those of us who like history and conversation pieces. We wandered around the house (had it to ourselves since it is off season--we might have seen a ghost!), played Scrabble in the rich paneled library, and wish we could have enjoyed the balcony (it was a bit too cold).

Service was perfect: friendly and available, but also hand's-off; mattress was great: firm, felt new. Breakfast was good: scrambled egg hash with cheese & peppers, muffin, coffee, juice, fruit.
