Vacation Rental Properties for Sale in Leeds, Utah

Leeds is a small Washington County town tucked between Interstate 15 and the red cliffs of Silver Reef, roughly 15 minutes north of St. George and about 35 minutes from Zion National Park's west entrance. What makes it stand out for investors is something most surrounding cities have tightened up on: Leeds still allows nightly vacation rentals in specific zones and subdivisions, making it one of the more practical spots in southwest Utah to legally operate a short-term rental. Combine that with proximity to Sand Hollow Reservoir, Quail Creek, the Silver Reef ghost town, and the golf and ATV trails the area is known for, and you have a guest base that books year-round outside the peak July-August heat.

Buyers targeting STR-eligible properties here should pay close attention to subdivision rules, HOA language, and the town's nightly-rental zoning map — eligibility is parcel-specific, not blanket. Most successful rentals in Leeds are 3-5 bedroom homes with private pools, casitas, or large garages for side-by-sides, priced anywhere from the mid $500Ks into the seven figures for purpose-built rental estates. Climate is high desert: 300+ sunny days, mild winters in the 50s and 60s, and hot summers that make a pool close to non-negotiable for competitive nightly rates. The listings below are filtered to homes in Leeds that fit a vacation-rental use case — review the active inventory to see what's currently available and how each property is zoned.

Common questions

About vacation rental properties in Leeds.

Does Leeds allow short-term vacation rentals?

Leeds is one of the few Washington County towns that permits nightly rentals in specific zones, which is why it draws investors priced out of St. George. Rules vary by subdivision and HOA, so always confirm the property's zoning and any CC&R language before writing an offer. The town clerk's office can verify current STR permitting requirements.

Which Leeds developments are known for vacation rental approval?

Communities like Cliffrose and pockets along Silver Reef Road have historically allowed nightly rentals, with some HOAs maintaining on-site rental programs. Older parts of town along Main Street and Mulberry Lane tend to be primary-residence neighborhoods. Check the plat and HOA docs property by property — approval isn't town-wide.

How does Leeds compare to St. George or Hurricane for STR income?

Leeds sits about 15 miles north of St. George off I-15 and offers quieter red-rock surroundings near Silver Reef and Quail Creek Reservoir. Nightly rates can rival St. George for comparable square footage, and acquisition prices are often lower than equivalent Washington Fields or Little Valley homes. Occupancy peaks March through October with Zion and Sand Hollow driving most bookings.

What price range should I expect for a rental-zoned home in Leeds?

Vacation-rental-approved single-family homes in Leeds generally run from the mid $500Ks for smaller 3-bedroom properties up to $1.5M+ for larger pool homes built specifically for the nightly market. Properties with private pools, casitas, or proximity to Silver Reef command the strongest premiums.

Are pools worth it for a Leeds vacation rental?

Yes — pools are close to mandatory for competitive nightly pricing here. Summer highs run 100°F+ from June through September, and guests booking the Zion/Sand Hollow corridor expect a pool or hot tub. Heated pools extend the shoulder season into November and back through February.

How many vacation-rental-eligible homes are typically on the market in Leeds?

Inventory is thin — usually a handful to a couple dozen STR-approved listings at any given time, depending on the season. The browse below shows what's currently active. Because eligible properties move quickly, setting up MLS alerts is the practical way to stay ahead of new listings.
