Beat the Heat
Don't let the rising mercury keep you away. There are plenty of 'cool' things to do in southern Utah.
Day trips to higher elevations are a great way to beat the heat. Right in our own front yard and climbing to 8,000 feet, Kolob Reservoir offers hiking, fishing, kayacking, and napping. You won't even break a sweat.

Congratulations to our Pirate Party Winners
 Summer vacations are about family and it was great to see entire families working together to build their very own pirate ships. Once the building was complete, the Armada sailed through the resort in the pirate parade. They finshed at the riverside park to burst a pinata.
