An upscale suburb of St. George, with golf course communities and a state park
In the 1990s, Ivins was considered the armpit of Washington County — tumbleweeds, trailers and horse pastures. The Mojave Desert town has since transformed into a high-end community against the backdrop of the Red Mountains. “They have these gated communities and multimillion-dollar homes, so if I'm in southern Utah, wanting to rub shoulders with other fancy country club folks, I’d choose Ivins,” says broker Ian Allen, who works with Realty Absolute and has about a decade of experience in the area. The city’s luxurious Black Desert Resort just hosted the PGA Tournament in 2024 and will host the LPGA and PGA Tours in 2025. More attractions include a state park and an amphitheater, every outdoor experience enhanced by the area’s scenery.

Snow Canyon State Park and more recreation spaces
Snow Canyon State Park borders the community to the north, with about 40 miles of trails through lava rocks and sand dunes. “Snow Canyon is beautiful. The thing I really love is the colors. Anywhere you go, you can find red rocks to look at, but Snow Canyon has a higher concentration of a variety of colors: red and orange sandstone juxtaposed with white sandstone. There are deep black basalt lava rock flows peppered in the landscape and green sage brush and other desert plants. It's a cool rainbow of desert colors,” Allen says. From rock climbing to hiking, the state park has recreation ranging from child-friendly to highly technical. On the west side of Ivins, Fire Lake Park features the Ivins Reservoir, where visitors can kayak or swim at a beach. At the Black Desert Resort in the eastern part of Ivins, there’s a public 19-hole course, complete with 360-degree views.

Tuacahn Center for the Arts and Kayenta Art Village
Tuacahn Center for the Arts draws locals and tourists to northern Ivins. “It's a huge attraction. People come from all over, and I think it’s one of a kind because of the sandstone cliffs backdrop. It’s tucked away in a canyon,” Allen says. The massive amphitheater has Broadway-style shows like “Mamma Mia” and “The Music Man.” It also features comedians and concerts throughout the year. “It’s really hot during the summertime, but people put up with it. They buy frozen lemonade and hunker down with the playbill — every seat is full every time I go,” Allen says. At the Kayenta Art Village, there are multiple galleries and an art festival surrounded by desert scenery on the city’s west side.

Contemporary architecture in Ivins
On Main Street and in the middle of Ivins, prospective buyers can find cottages from the 1920s through the 1930s. Otherwise, the majority of housing in the city is contemporary, with many homes from the 2000s through today. There are many contemporary mansions on the edges of Ivins, including in the neighborhood Shonto Point. These homes usually have panoramic views of the Red Mountains, pools and HOA amenities. “Houses sit for months and months because of relative unaffordability,” Allen says. The city’s median sales price is $600,000. In Ivins, homes stay on the market for 53 days on average, higher than the national average of 45 days. “Spring is our busy selling season. We sell a lot of homes, but the rest of the year is hit or miss,” Allen says.
