Utah may not be known for soft, white beaches but that doesn’t mean you can’t escape to the water. In fact, there are incredible vacation rentals in Utah that not only offer fabulous water views but also cozy amenities and plenty of recreational opportunities. We found seven waterfront Airbnbs in Utah that are perfect for warm-weather adventures. Grab your loved ones or come alone — it’s time for a little adventure.
You will love relaxing at this charming cottage located along a lake in Millard County. With two bedrooms and one bathroom, up to six guests can stay at this rental. When you aren’t boating or paddling on the water, spend time in the private backyard with a hot tub and fire pit.
You will enjoy views of the Provo River when you stay at this beautiful log cabin rental. Located in Kamas, you will have everything you need for some time away from the hustle of daily life. The cabin has a strict two-guest maximum rule but you will get to sleep in a cozy queen-sized bed and prepare all of your meals in the fully-equipped kitchen. Spend time admiring the views or watch some of your favorite shows on the smart TV with fast Wi-Fi.
This glamping teepee in Fountain Green isn’t like other vacation rentals on our list. Rather than sit along a lake, this unique glamping destination offers gorgeous views of a private fishing pond and farmland. This teepee is 600 square feet and is large enough to comfortably sleep up to four guests. You can spend time exploring one of the many hiking trails on the property or just relax on one of the large swings or in the covered pavilion. This glamping spot in Utah is also near Maple Canyon, where you’ll find a slot canyon, repelling, and rock climbing.
4. Bear Lake Whiskey N Water Lake House, Garden City
If you love spending time at Bear Lake, you’ll love this unique vacation rental in northern Utah. Up to eight guests can comfortably sleep at this home and you’ll enjoy many amenities like an indoor fireplace, stocked kitchen, and comfortable beds. Head outside and sit by the fire pit on the beach, capture water views, play in the grassy yard, and relax on the large deck.
Experience cozy lake views at this darling A-frame tiny home in Scofield. This Utah vacation rental sleeps up to five guests and has everything you need for a quiet lake vacation. Enjoy the beautiful décor, explore the loft area, and spend time at the lake. Plan to spend a few days here — you won’t want to leave.
Do you want to go glamping? If so, we have just the place for you. This glamping dome at Yuba Lake provides a unique getaway experience. With three beds, you can bring a small group and spend some time by this Utah lake. Bask in the natural light next to the wall of windows or head outside and put your toes in the sand.
Need some beach time? You’ll find it at this gorgeous beach bungalow at Yuba Lake. This home is perfect for a solo trip or a couple’s getaway and the beautiful décor will make you feel right at home. The location right on the beach couldn’t be better and we particularly love the wall of windows. Even if the weather isn’t ideal, you can still admire the views while indoors.
