Stone Lizard Lodge

As a single traveller, I thought the room was perfect. Well appointed, comfortable, not your typical hotel room. Breakfast was much better than most, especially the fruit, chia seeds yogurt. Friendly people. Would definitely stay again.

I've stayed at Stone Lizard several times. All my visits to this Blanding UT spot have been great. This time I turned on my TV and the leading choices of the program menu were tuned to Canadian news channels and shows. I don't know who set up the TV this way, but I was happy to note this arrangement even if it was some other guest and not the lodge staff. It reminded me of how we are deeply connected to our Canadian neighbors, and especially in our love of traveling the Southwest. I also got into a conversation with the staff about deer on the highway late at night, dermested beetles, and how and where they can be collected and used to help clean up skeletal collections for biological comparative collections. They asked many questions. Now that's some staff attentiveness !! Their breakfast savory pocket pastries are tasty and handmade locally. The room was cleaned everyday and it smelled fresh.

The Stone Lizard Lodge lived up too, if not exceeded the online information. Nicole at check in greeted me with amazing hospitality and kindness. The room was great. I slept well and it is a very quiet area of town. And my goodness, breakfast was worth waiting until 7 am for. I had a big drive that day so was anxious to get going but the wait was definitely worth it. Only thing to note is that you are in Blanding on a Sunday night, the dinner options are extremely limited.
