Pine Valley, Utah is located at the headwaters of the Santa Clara River, some 45 picturesque miles from the county seat of St. George. A very significant landmark is located in Pine Valley; the country’s oldest Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, the Pine Valley Chapel. Ebenezer Bryce, a ship maker, designed it in 1868 using an upside down boat scheme. It is still in use today.
Pine Valley, Utah lies on the western end of the Pine Valley Mountain Wilderness Area, the state’s second largest wilderness area. There are currently 23 threatened species that call the Pine Valley Mountain Wilderness Area home.
At an elevation of 6,500 feet above sea level, Pine Valley summers are a bit cooler than they are in the lower parts of Washington County. The winters are cooler as well with nighttime lows dipping below the freezing mark and remaining below freezing during a small part of the winter months.
There are more than 600 single-family dwellings in the Pine Valley area with an additional 200 building lots available. Of the single-family residences, only about 35% are occupied by full-time Pine Valley, Utah residents. The rest of the dwellings are mainly used as second homes and summer dwellings. There are 20 vacant agricultural plots available for development in the area as well.
The beauty of the natural wilderness areas and quality of a peaceful life are what draws people to this area. Quickly, Pine Valley is becoming a retirement hot spot for those that want to live in an area where scenic beauty abounds. Residents come here for the wide-open spaces, beautiful mountains, and small town living.
