SOUTHERN UTAH


North of the border, South of heaven…right where you belong


Known for its family-friendly appeal and near year-round sunshine, Washington County is nestled in the heart of Southern Utah’s Color Country. Surrounded by red rock vistas and breathtaking desert scenery, SunRiver Communities has become a focal point for a variety of activities in the greater St. George area. The wide open spaces, warm desert temperatures and obliging breezes have made SunRiver the ideal location for resort style living, year-round. SunRiver St. George hosts an annual art festival, as well as many golf tournaments throughout the year and portions of the Huntsman World Senior Games.
