A Swell Oasis in the desert of the San Rafael Swell: Swell Retreat. A pine tree farm was active prior to us purchasing the land, so lots of beautiful trees. A couple ponds stocked with large mouth bass. Zipline, WIBIT, water slide, etc. A field of hay, and continued improvements to make it into a Swell Retreat!!! We are a great spot to stay and have onsite a zip line into Lake Elevate, water slide into the pond, adventure island, zipline, kayaking, paddle boarding, catch and release fishing, and close to all fun in the San Rafael Swell. 20 min or so from three reservoirs for additional fishing, swimming and motor boating, 30 minutes from the Little Grand Canyon for breathtaking views, hiking and mountain biking, petroglyphs and the San Rafael Swell river to float on, 60 minutes from Goblin Valley, within 60 minutes to multiple slot canyons: Little Wild Horse Canyon, Muddy Creek, The Chute (similar to Zion National Park), Baptist Draw, to name a few. Mountain fun for rock climbing just up the road in Joe's Valley, hiking, biking, fishing, etc. We would love to have you stay on our little farm while you enjoy the fun of the San Rafael Swell adventures.

We absolutely loved our stay at Swell Retreat! We were there from Friday-Monday and had planned to do a bunch of the surrounding sites in the area but the retreat had so many fun activities for the family that we didn't even have time to venture away. Our kids loved the ponds, fishing, floating islands, the zipline, tetherball, and kayaking. The staff is extremely friendly and helpful as well. They go out of their way to make sure your comfortable and are enjoying your stay.

We had such a great time at Swell Resort! Will definitely be coming back. Loved the water activities... Everyone in our group had a blast out on the water. Bathroom situation was nice & clean, short walk from our site. My family kept telling me how glad they were I found this place. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Great camping site and lovely hosts! We had a lot of fun. We got visited by a bobcat in the night and the longhorn cows, which were friendly. We will be back next year with more friends and family.
