Homes with RV Garages for Sale in Big Water, Utah
Big Water is a tiny high-desert town tucked against the Glen Canyon National Recreation Area, about 15 minutes north of Page, Arizona and the Wahweap launch ramp at Lake Powell. The town sits at roughly 4,100 feet on wide-open lots with red-rock and Lake Powell views, and Kane County zoning is friendly to oversized outbuildings — which is exactly why RV garages are such a common ask here. Most buyers are either full-time retirees, remote workers who came for the lake, or second-home owners from St. George, Las Vegas, and the Wasatch Front who need somewhere to park a motorhome, fifth-wheel, ski boat, or houseboat tow rig between trips.
An RV garage in Big Water typically means a tall bay (14-16 foot door), a deep pull-through or single-deep slab of 40 to 60 feet, and often a 30/50-amp hookup, dump connection, and sometimes a wash bay. Newer builds along Aaron Burr Drive and the streets platted around the original townsite are where you'll see purpose-built RV shops; older manufactured and stick-built homes sometimes have detached metal buildings added later. Prices vary widely — modest homes with a simple RV bay start in the mid $300s, while custom builds with a full shop, casita, and lake views can run past $900,000.

Common questions
About homes with rv garages in Big Water.
Why are RV garages useful in Big Water specifically? ▾
Big Water sits minutes from Lake Powell's Wahweap and Antelope Point marinas, so most residents and second-home owners keep a boat, toy hauler, or motorhome on the property. An RV garage means you can store the rig at home instead of paying monthly fees at a Page or Kanab storage lot, and you can plug in, flush tanks, and load up before the short drive to the ramp.
What size RV garage should I look for here? ▾
For a Class A motorhome or a fifth-wheel with a boat in tow, look for a door height of at least 14 feet and depth of 40-50 feet. Many Big Water builds were designed around houseboat-tow trucks and large desert toys, so 16-foot doors and 60-foot bays do show up on the MLS from time to time.
How many homes with RV garages are typically for sale in Big Water? ▾
Big Water is a small community of roughly 500 residents, so inventory is thin — usually a handful of active listings at any given time, and only a portion include a dedicated RV bay. New construction on the larger lots off Aaron Burr Drive and Ethan Allen Avenue is where most purpose-built RV garages show up.
Are there HOA or zoning restrictions on RV garages in Big Water? ▾
Big Water has no HOA across most of town and Kane County zoning is permissive on outbuildings and tall garages compared to Wasatch Front cities. That's a big reason buyers from St. George and Washington County come here to build — you can put up a 16-foot-tall detached shop without fighting a design committee.
Does the climate affect how I should spec an RV garage here? ▾
Summer highs hit 100°F+ and winters are mild, so insulation and a vent fan or mini-split matter more than a heated slab. UV is brutal at this elevation, which is the whole point of garaging the RV instead of leaving it under a carport — paint, decals, and tires last dramatically longer indoors.
How far is Big Water from Lake Powell launch ramps? ▾
Stateline ramp at Wahweap is about 15 minutes south on US-89, and Antelope Point is roughly 20 minutes. That short tow distance is the main reason buyers prioritize an RV or boat garage here over a comparable home in Page or Kanab.
