There are many activities, but it is rural right by the horse ranch. There is a children's park two houses away and has a ballpark and jungle gyms and pavilion for picnics. Also the house is located 15 minutes to the Canyon and beautiful hiking areas. Brianhead ski resort is only 25 minutes away. In the late summer months the Shakespearean Festival is a wonderful event with plays and outside venues. There is a Farmers market and many parks.
The fact that it is a college town- Southern Utah University-SUU, makes it an active and bustling town with lots of wonderful shops, restaurants and shopping. Its a very quiet area, but kids and adults alike ride around on 4 wheelers and motorcycles quite a lot.
