Thanksgiving at Arcadia: Room for Everyone at the Table
Thanksgiving is about the people around the table, and the best part is having enough room for all of them. Instead of squeezing into one house with air mattresses in the hallway, bring the whole family to Arcadia Resort in Santa Clara, just outside St. George. Our villas give everyone space to cook, play, and relax together, with red rock views and Snow Canyon State Park just minutes away.
A kitchen made for the feast
Every Arcadia villa comes with a full kitchen, so you can make the turkey, the pies, and Grandma's famous rolls the way you do at home. Big dining and living spaces mean everyone gets a seat at the table, and there's plenty of room to spread out for leftovers and football afterward.
Swimming on Thanksgiving weekend
This is one of our favorite things about fall in Southern Utah. Arcadia's resort pool area is open and heated daily through Thanksgiving weekend, so the kids can hit the waterslide and lazy river while the adults soak up the sunshine. The resort hot tubs are heated year-round, too, perfect after a long day of eating.
Villas with room for the whole crew
A few of our larger villas are great fits for big holiday gatherings:
- Arcadia #68: 5 bedrooms and sleeps 20, with a private pool and hot tub plus its own pickleball and basketball court.
- Arcadia #49: 5 bedrooms and sleeps 26, with a private 8-person hot tub, foosball, and two big living spaces.
- Arcadia #57: 5 bedrooms and sleeps 16, with a private hot tub, virtual pinball, and an 86" TV for the big games.
Holiday dates go fast, so check the calendar on each villa page for what's still open.
Make a week of it
Thanksgiving week is a great time to explore. Snow Canyon State Park is right around the corner for an easy morning hike to walk off the pie, and Zion National Park is about an hour's drive for a day of big canyon views. Back at the resort, the clubhouse has a golf simulator, arcade, pool table, and foosball, and the amenity area has pickleball, cornhole, and a fire pit for evenings under the stars. Tuacahn's Christmas in the Canyon also kicks off Thanksgiving weekend, a fun way to start the holiday season with the family.
