Whether it’s your first time booking a vacation rental or just your first time renting from a new vacation home rental agency, there are some important questions that you’ll want to get answered before your arrival. In fact, some of these questions are ones that you should ask before your vacation rental is ever booked.
Asking these questions can help ensure that the vacation rental that you’re choosing is the right fit for your travel party. They can also help you to better understand any rules you might need to follow during your stay. Or help you learn guidelines to help you fully enjoy the property’s amenities.
If you’re planning a stay at Copper Rock Vacation Rentals, keep reading. We’re breaking down some common questions guests have before they arrive in the best vacation rentals Utah has to offer.
How Many Guests Can a Vacation Rental Accommodate?
One of the most important questions to ask before you book is how many guests a unit can accommodate. This is usually a number that you can find directly on the listing. When you book St. George vacation rentals from Copper Rock, you’ll find the number of guests each unit can accommodate beneath the name of each vacation rental. You’ll also find the number of bedrooms and bathrooms each unit has.
Too many first-time vacation home renters overlook this number. For instance, they might see that a vacation home has a spacious living room or basement. They might think that they could set up inflatable mattresses to accommodate more people than the listing advertises. However, the number of people listed on a vacation rental is often a safety measure, and should never be ignored. This number often reflects how many people a home can legally and safely accommodate due to fire codes.
Before you start planning, know the maximum number of guests that will be joining you. Then, book a vacation rental that can accommodate your entire group. If your plans aren’t set just yet, book a larger rental than you expect to need. Planning a visit to Southern Utah with a large group? Our vacation home rental agency has multiple homes that can sleep more than 20 guests, as well as one that can sleep 25!
What Time is Check-Out/Check-In?
Another important question you’ll want to ask your vacation home rental agency is what time check-in and check-out are. Knowing these times can help you make your travel plans, including flights and other travel arrangements. If you know that you’ll be arriving early on your first day, consider planning a group activity like a fun lunch or shopping trip. That way you aren’t just sitting around waiting to get into your rental.
Occasionally, early check-ins or late check-outs can be accommodated. However, these are never guaranteed, and should always be viewed as a bonus when available.
What Do I Need to Do When I Check Out?
If you’ve only ever stayed in hotels in the past, you might not be expecting check-out procedures for your stay. But many of the best vacation rentals Utah has to offer have some guidelines that guests are asked to follow before checking out. These help to keep the home safe and prepare it for the cleaning crew’s arrival.
You’ve no doubt heard the horror stories of Airbnbs with multiple pages of chores guests need to complete before they check out. But at Copper Rock Vacation Rentals, we have a few simple guidelines that we ask guests to follow.
These will take you just a couple of minutes on your way out the door, and include things like locking the doors and windows and starting the dishwasher. These guidelines can be found on our FAQ page. They are also provided in your vacation rental upon your arrival.
Is There Anything That I Need to Know to Use the Vacation Rental?
Along the same lines as asking about check-out procedures, you may also want to ask if there’s anything you need to know to use the vacation rental’s amenities. Often, any information that you’ll need will be provided in the home when you arrive.
At our St. George vacation rentals, for instance, you’ll find guidelines for how to get your private pool ready for use, if your rental includes one. For instance, your pool may have a cover on it and a vacuum running upon your arrival. You’ll find detailed instructions for removing the cover and vacuum and enjoying the pool in your rental. These can also be found on our FAQ page ahead of your arrival.

Resort-Style Swimming Pools
With so many visitors making their way to Southern Utah during the hot summer months, it’s no surprise that swimming pools are in demand at hotels and vacation rentals. But before you book a chain hotel with a standard, shared pool, you’ll want to check out the resort-style pools located at some of the best luxury rentals St. George, Utah has to offer.
Many of our vacation rentals feature private, luxurious pools, hot tubs, or both. These private oases are great for cooling off on a hot day, taking a dip beneath the stars, or spending quality time with your family and friends.

Putting Green
Many of our St. George vacation rentals are located on Copper Rock Golf Course, so it’s no surprise that they are a popular destination for golf trips. But whether you’ll be golfing in St. George during your stay or using your vacation rental as a basecamp to explore Southern Utah’s many other attractions, a private putting green is the perfect spot to relax with friends.
You’ll find a private putting green at a couple of our vacation rentals. If golf is a must during your stay or you have a passionate player in your group, this is one amenity that you won’t want to miss.
Aptly named the Torrey Pines House, this luxury home is just one of our St. George UT rentals to feature a putting green. Located in your spacious, private backyard, the green is the perfect spot to practice your putts before spending a day golfing in St. George. When you’re finished, hop in the hot tub and relax beneath the stars while swapping stories about that day’s adventures. With views of the golf course, you can even scope out the holes you’ll be playing later in your stay.
A Private Pickle Ball Court and Basketball Court
You already know that Copper Rock Vacation Rentals offers luxury rentals located right on the fairways of Copper Rock Golf Course. But this isn’t the only way that we cater to sports enthusiasts and athletes.
If you’re looking for the ultimate destination for the sports lover in your life, our Lux Sports Getaway is it. A large private putting green and views of the fairways are just the beginning. You’ll also enjoy a private pickleball and basketball court! Shoot some hoops or challenge your friends to a game of pickleball.

This is undoubtedly one of our most unique St. George, UT rentals, and a must for families and groups of friends looking to enjoy some fun and exciting amenities during their stay.

Choosing the Best St. George Vacation Rentals
These are just a few of the unique amenities that you could enjoy during a stay in one of our St. George vacation rentals. But Copper Rock Vacation Rentals has so much more to offer. If you’re ready to start planning your next Southern Utah adventure, check out our beautiful vacation rentals today!
Located in the heart of Southern Utah, St. George welcomes millions of travelers from around the world every year—and for good reason! With several national and state parks, beautiful golf courses, a variety of museums, and so much more, there’s something for everyone to enjoy during a St. George vacation.
We’re here to help you plan a getaway in the best rental properties St. George UT has to offer. Keep reading to learn five things to do during your stay in one of Sunny Vacation Rentals’ Southern Utah properties.
1. Day Trip to Zion National Park
It’s no secret that Zion National Park is one of Southern Utah’s most popular attractions. This national park is ranked the third most popular park in the U.S. If you’ve never had the chance to marvel at Zion’s red rock peaks, this is a must-see during your St. George vacation.
Zion is just a thirty-minute drive from St. George vacation rentals, which makes it easy to enjoy a day trip or two during your visit. If this is your first time in the park, consider starting with a ride on the Zion Canyon Shuttle. This shuttle ferries guests through Zion’s Lower Canyon for most of the year, when this part of the park closes to vehicle traffic. Nine stops along the shuttle route help you visit some of the park’s most popular hiking trails and viewpoints.
If you’re looking for an easy hike, the Riverside Walk is a great choice. This short trail is located at the last shuttle stop and will give you a view of the start of one of the park’s most popular trails, The Narrows. This more challenging trail requires hikers to trek up or downstream through the Virgin River, into the narrowest part of Zion Canyon.
Another popular trail is Angels Landing. Thanks to this difficult trail’s popularity, you’ll need to enter one or both of the two lotteries to try for a permit to hike it. If you book one of our St. George UT rentals far enough in advance, you can enter the Seasonal Lottery, which opens four times a year and awards permits for the following year. But if you book a more last-minute trip, you can also enter the Day-Before Lottery for another chance at getting a permit.
2. Hit the Trails in Snow Canyon State Park
You don’t need to drive to Zion during your stay in the best rental properties St. George UT has to offer to enjoy hiking and other outdoor activities. Snow Canyon State Park is a stunning park just minutes away from St. George. In any other state, the incredible canyons, sandstone cliffs, and challenging hiking trails would have earned this property national park status. But don’t let the state park title fool you; Snow Canyon is an outdoor enthusiast’s paradise.
The park is home to more than 16 miles of hiking trails in a variety of difficulty levels. If you’re looking for something even more challenging, you can also enjoy rock climbing and mountain biking in the park. Despite the name, the park rarely sees snow, and enjoys mild winter weather, making it a great stop for an off-season St. George vacation.
3. Get in 18 Holes at Beautiful Copper Rock Golf Course
If a round of golf is a must during your stay in our St. George vacation rentals, you’re in luck. With a number of chic luxury properties located at Copper Rock Golf Course, it’s easy to squeeze in a few rounds during your visit.
This course has been voted the Best Golf in Southern Utah by locals in back-to-back-to-back years. Enjoy 18 holes of pristine greens surrounded by picturesque desert landscapes. You’ll kick off your round with a challenging par 5 stretching more than 500 yards. Strategic bunkers set the tone for a memorable round.
4. Step Back in Time and See Real Dinosaur Tracks
Whether you have a dinosaur enthusiast in your travel party or not, the St. George Dinosaur Discovery Site is a stop everyone will enjoy. Step inside this museum to take a step back in time more than 200 million years. The museum is built on the location of a set of preserved dinosaur tracks that were discovered in 2000. Today, it houses a variety of fossils and interactive exhibits that explore the ancient history of Southern Utah.
The museum, including the dinosaur tracks, is housed in an air-conditioned building. This makes it a great choice if you’re looking for an indoor activity on a hot day.
5. Stroll the Red Hills Desert Garden
When you’re looking to enjoy a relaxing afternoon stroll during your St. George vacation, make sure to stop by the Red Hills Desert Garden. Utah’s first conservation garden, this 5-acre property features more than 5,000 local plants. Each plant has been chosen for being water-efficient.
A bubbling stream flows through the garden and is stocked with native and endangered fish species. Make your way through a replica of the slot canyons located throughout the region. Look for the replica dinosaur tracks that mimic those you’ll see at the St. George Dinosaur Discovery Site.
