Nestled at the base of the majestic cliffs of Red
Mountain lies the community of Ivins. No where in the United States
can you find a more breath-taking scenic area. Located northwest
of St George, away from the busy I-15 corridor, you can enjoy the quiet
beauty of the desert. Besides the red
sandstone mountains you'll find white sandstone canyons and
black lava flows adding the color and beauty.
Residents and visitors can take advantage of hiking or biking along the
city's paved
trails, which connect with other trails inside nearby Snow Canyon State
Park, St George and Santa Clara. The unique, desert community of Kayenta is
located in the City of Ivins
and many of the nearly 5,000 residents of Ivins are retirees and
professionals
who have fallen in love the towering red
mountains.
Ivins is home to the Red Mountain Resort,
The Adventure Spa, a leading health and fitness center (recently
ranked as the No. fitness resort by Fitness Magazine) and the Tuachan
Amphitheater, a 2,000-seat amphitheater for open-air productions
and is often called "The Broadway of the Desert."
Adjacent to the amphitheater is Tuachan High School,
a
charter school specializing in curriculum for the performing arts.
Kayenta's Xetava Gardens, Datura Art Gallery, Zia Pottery
Studio as well as the
Snow Canyon Clinic are, also, located in this scenic community.
Snow Canyon Clinic's imaging center features the newest
and most technically advance magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) systems
providing the most state-of-the-art medical care.

Santa Clara City is the ideal scene of a hometown
community. Carved out of the desert by faithful pioneers and
built into the "garden spot" of Washington County, it serves as a
respite for both visitors and residents. Tall sycamores line
the main street shading humble pioneer structures, brick bungalows and
ranch-style homes.
Santa Clara was named by Spanish explorers in honor
of a saint. "Santa means a female saint and "Clara' means a short
interval of fair weather. In the spring of 1854, missionaries came and stayed with the Paiute
Indians living in the area. Later that year, Jacob Hamblin and
company arrived in the valley and worked with the 800-member Paiute tribe,
who were already farming along the Santa Clara Creek. Together they
built the first irrigation canal, and the first cotton grown in the
Utah Territory.
Today you can enjoy their historic tree-lined streets which are only
minutes from St George. This historic community was built on banks of the
Santa Clara Creek and was the considered the oasis of the area
especially for travelers going to Southern California. Dennis Drake,
Mayor of Santa Clara wants the city to continue to be a blossoming town
rising in the middle of a desert.
Numerous young families have made Santa Clara
Heights their home in the many new neighborhoods overlooking magnificent
views of the red rock mountains, black lava fields and Snow
Canyon.
The city continues its strong sense of heritage through its landmarks,
historical buildings, parks and annual Swiss Days Celebration.
This is all a complement to the small (population nearing 6,000), yet
diverse, collection of well manicured neighborhoods. From the
valley where settlement first started, to the heights where subdivisions
look across rugged lava to red sandstone mountains, to the cool banks of
the Santa Clara River, it is a place where friends, family and neighbors
live, work and play together. And it is a place that residents
love to call "home."
