5 Tiny Towns In Utah To Visit This Spring/Summer

If you're looking for some fun road trip spots in Utah this spring or summer, here is the TOP 5 Tiny Towns that you'll have an absolute blast visiting. The best part? These places won't break the bank, and you'll never believe all the stars you'll see each night!

Marysvale, Utah:

Marysvale has a population of under 400 people. They've got no stoplights, a few stop signs, a gas station, four restaurants, and the world famous Paiute ATV Trail. The trail is around 250 miles of awesome that people from all over the world come to experience. Every 24th of July people flock into town for a parade, games at the park, and the "Biggest Little Rodeo in the World!" Marysvale also has Tomatoes Pizza Pie, which was recently named the BEST New York Style Pizza in Utah! Plus, you can stop by my mom's amazing hotdog restaurant, Coach's Dog House!

Monroe, Utah:

Right in the heart of Central Utah is Monroe. Monroe is home to Mystic Hot Springs, that you've probably seen your friends or favorite celebrities posting their photos at on Instagram. You can stay on location, too! They have cabins, hotel room-busses, and even on-site camping and RV parking! The Mystic Hot Springs are by reservation only, so keep that in mind when planning your trip!

Kanab, Utah:

Back in the Mid-1900's, Kanab was a hot spot for Hollywood. So many Westerns were shot in Kanab that they earned the name "Little Hollywood." Kanab is home to Best Friends Animal Sanctuary, tons of incredibly unique restaurants, a hot air balloon festival, and Western Legends, a big community event with live music, rodeos, vendors, and fun! But right up the road from Kanab is Coral Pink Sand Dunes, where you can possibly spot Sasquatch! If you're a hiker, you've got to check out Buckskin Gulch, an epic slot canyon! If you're staying in Kanab, you've got to stay at Parry Lodge. This hotel is where all the stars would stay when filming in Kanab. You can stay in rooms that the celebrities were in like John Wayne, Ronald Reagan, Frank Sinatra, Dean Martin, and Clint Eastwood!

Springdale, Utah:

If you're a lover of natural beauty, Springdale is the place for you. Located right outside of Zion National Park, this place is like nothing you've ever seen before. High end restaurants, local jewelry shops, fine art galleries, waterfalls, and guided tours can be found in Springdale. Plus, this is one of the final scenes in Robert Redford's hit movie "The Electric Horseman" where Sonny releases Rising Star to be free with the other wild horses.

Panguitch, Utah:

Panguitch is a really cool little town, but still big enough to have a Subway! However, you probably won't need a Subway sandwich the you try the local restaurants that Panguitch has to offer. You've got to see Red Canyon, a scenic area with trails winding through the natural beauty with amazing landscapes and tranquil hiking. They've also got a Gem Theater, antique shops, museums, and of course GORGEOUS Panguitch Lake. If you're a fan of beautiful National Parks, Bryce Canyon is just 20 minutes away!
