A small town surrounded by some of the most beautiful scenery in the country, Kanab, Utah is the perfect place to get away from the ordinary and experience the extraordinary. At Parry Lodge, we have been introducing people to the wonders of Kanab ever since our founding in 1931. Back then, the Parry brothers used photographs of the area’s stunning natural beauty to convince Hollywood producers and directors to film movies and television shows in Kanab.

If you are a fan of the Westerns from Hollywood’s Golden Age of cinema, you have seen the small town of Kanab, Utah even if you don’t know it. The relatively isolated and unique scenery of Kanab greatly appealed to Hollywood location scouts. Since 1931, when Hollywood came to Kanab, they stayed at Parry Lodge.

Southern Utah and northern Arizona feature some of the most unique and breathtaking wilderness in America. Millions of visitors come to see Zion National Park, Bryce Canyon National Park, Lake Powell, and the Grand Canyon North Rim every single year.

Hoodoos, fairy chimneys, tent rocks-or whatever you prefer to call them-these stunning geological formations appear to defy gravity and draw over two million visitors to southern Utah each year. This stunning scenery has also brought Hollywood to the area for nearly a century. When you come to see the hoodoos of Bryce Canyon, you can stay where stars from the golden age of Hollywood Westerns stayed: Parry Lodge in Kanab, Utah.
