Hoodout Hideout

Southwestern Utah


Coffee shop and lodging open year-round, making it a great option when many of the area's businesses close for the winter. A very welcoming place serving generous portions of comfort food such as fish and chips with hand-cut fries. It also rents two comfortable cabin-style rooms, one of which is built in an old safe house.
