Road Construction in Zion National Park
Reconstruction of the Zion-Mt Carmel Highway will begin June 1, 2010 and end October 28. The road construction will occur from the junction of the Zion Canyon Scenic Drive to the East Entrance.  The construction will not impact Zion Canyon, the most visited area of the park or affect easy access from our resort to ZNP.

:00am-4:00pm the road will be closed to all vehicles. Tunnel hours: 7:00am-9:00am and 4:00pm to 8:00pm through July 31. After July 31 the hours will shorten due to lack of daylight. All vehicles 7'10" wide or wider and 11'2" tall or taller are required to have an escort and can only travel during these times. This includes most dual wheeled pickup trucks, recreational vehicles and tour busses. Remember that Utah is in the Mountain Time Zone and is one hour ahead of Nevada and Arizona.

The road will be graded gravel in the work sections and the surface may be uneven at times. Please use caution and low speeds in these areas.  For more information and alternate routes.

Mobile RV Wash 
After traveling the highways, your RV may need a bath.  Don't search the roadsides for a Do-It-Yourself carwash.  Ultimate Detailing will use spot-free water to clean your rig right here at the resort for only $50.00 (over 40 ft. only $65.00.)
