1310 S State St

Orderville, UT 84758

Property is located at the ''hub'' of what the national parks system refers to as The Grand Circle of National Parks and Monuments. Within this ''Grand Circle'' are 12 national parks and monuments all within a one hour drive of this property's location. Zion National Park's visitor count is now over 5 million visits per year. With the massive tourist congestion taking place on the west side of Zion,1310 South State in Orderville is 20 minutes from the east side of Zion National Park entrance and is destined to become a new center for tourist's gathering to the desert southwest regions. With a spectacular view of the 2000 foot tall tan, yellow, and red sandstone cliffs seen from this property (views from a hotel room looking east would be incredible), they mark the boundary to the Grand Staircase/Escalante National Monument. With this property in the hands of the right developer, the east side of Zion NP can now become a place for visitors to be able to "spread out" and linger for days in a region "filled with geological wonder" without feeling like they are "on top of each other" waiting in line for hours for a bus ride into Zion NP canyon. Located just 20 minutes from the East entrance of Zion National Park and the proposed new East ZNP visitor center. This beautiful property with views is one of the last larger commercially zoned parcels close to Zion NP. Easy access right off highway 89 and is perfect for tourism-based businesses. The property includes 50 shares of pressurized irrigation along with culinary water & power. Additional shares are available. Includes partially built concrete structures. Contact Agent for information regarding the Proposed Cove Reservoir Project (in cooperation with Washington County Water Conservancy District, Bureau of Land Management, and National Park Service). * Long-term use of the proposed reservoir would provide important recreation opportunities for both local residents as well as visitors to the area. Because the reservoir would be located near US-89, convenient access to the site would make it attractive to potential users. Existing recreation areas, including national and state parks, are becoming overcrowded (Salt Lake Tribune 2018; Yale Environment 360 2017). The proposed reservoir and associated facilities could provide an overflow opportunity to nearby recreation sites. Recreation opportunities would include water-based activities such as non-motorized and small motorized boating, swimming, and fishing. Non-water activities would include picnicking, overnight and day camping, and sightseeing.
