Horse Properties for Sale in Orderville, Utah
Orderville sits in Long Valley between Zion National Park and Bryce Canyon, on Highway 89 in Kane County. It's a working agricultural community of around 600 people where horses have been part of daily life since the 1870s United Order settlement. Land here trades very differently than the Wasatch Front — parcels are larger, water rights matter more than square footage, and the surrounding terrain is a mix of red rock, sage flats, and irrigated pasture along the East Fork of the Virgin River. Buyers looking at equestrian properties around Orderville are usually after acreage with usable pasture, existing fencing or corrals, a barn or loafing shed, and water shares attached to the deed. Many parcels also back up to BLM ground, which opens up direct trail riding without trailering.
Price points vary widely. Smaller in-town lots with a barn and a couple of acres can come in well under the Utah median, while ranch-style holdings with 20+ acres, water rights, and outbuildings can run into the seven figures depending on improvements and access. The trade-off for the rural setting is distance: Kanab is the closest service town, Cedar City is about an hour and 15 minutes for larger vet clinics and feed runs, and St. George sits roughly two hours southwest. For riders who want quiet country, real water, and trails out the back gate, the area is hard to match.

Common questions
About horse properties in Orderville.
How much acreage do horse properties in Orderville typically include? ▾
Most equestrian parcels in and around Orderville run from 1 to 40+ acres, with many sitting on 5-20 acre spreads along the Long Valley floor. Larger ranches with grazing rights or access to BLM land also come up periodically, especially on the outskirts toward Glendale and Mt. Carmel.
Is water available for pasture irrigation? ▾
Water is the single biggest question in Kane County. Many Orderville parcels carry shares in local irrigation companies tied to the East Fork of the Virgin River, but rights vary parcel by parcel. Always confirm certificated water shares, well permits, and stock-watering rights with the seller and the Utah Division of Water Rights before closing.
Can I ride directly from the property onto public land? ▾
Yes, in many cases. Orderville sits surrounded by BLM and state trust land, and several rural parcels back up to open range or have nearby trail access toward the Sevier Plateau and Zion's east side. Confirm any access easements in writing rather than relying on historic use.
What's the climate like for keeping horses year-round? ▾
Orderville sits around 5,400 feet, so winters bring real snow and lows in the teens, while summers are warm but milder than St. George — typically 85-90°F. Horses do well year-round here, but shelter, frost-free waterers, and hay storage are standard requirements rather than optional.
Are there zoning restrictions on the number of horses? ▾
Orderville Town and unincorporated Kane County are generally horse-friendly, but stocking density, setbacks for barns and corrals, and manure management can be regulated depending on the zone (A-1, RR-1, etc.). Call Kane County Planning before assuming a parcel can carry the herd size you have in mind.
How far is Orderville from larger equestrian services and vets? ▾
Kanab is about 25 minutes south and has feed stores and large-animal vet services. Cedar City (roughly 75 minutes northwest) offers a wider range of equine vets, farriers, and tack suppliers. St. George is about two hours southwest for specialty care or hauling to larger shows.
