3 Bedroom 2 Bathroom Homes for Sale in Ticaboo, Utah
Ticaboo is one of the smallest and most remote spots on the Utah map — a former uranium mining townsite tucked along Highway 276 in northern Garfield County, about 12 miles north of Bullfrog Marina at Lake Powell. The whole community measures in dozens of residents, not thousands, so a three-bedroom, two-bath home here is a specific kind of opportunity: a full-size family layout in a place where most structures are either the Ticaboo Lodge, employee housing, or smaller cabins. Buyers drawn to this size usually want room for visiting family during houseboat season, a guest room for hunters chasing the Henry Mountains units, or a home base that doubles as a short-term rental between Capitol Reef and Lake Powell traffic.
The trade-offs are real and worth knowing up front. Groceries, medical care, and the nearest Home Depot are all an hour-plus drive — Hanksville, Blanding, or Page depending on direction. Summers are hot and dry, winters are mild compared to northern Utah, and the night skies are some of the darkest in the Lower 48. Internet typically means Starlink, heat means propane, and any contractor work books out further than it would in St. George or Cedar City. For the right buyer — someone who values quiet, lake access, and red rock country over convenience — a 3/2 in Ticaboo is a rare find.

Common questions
About 3 bed 2 bath homes in Ticaboo.
How many 3-bed, 2-bath homes typically come on the market in Ticaboo? ▾
Very few. Ticaboo is an unincorporated community of roughly 30 to 50 residents on Highway 276, and the housing stock is tiny — often a handful of homes total, plus the lodge and some employee housing tied to the area's uranium and tourism history. It's common for months to pass with zero active listings, so anything in the 3/2 range is worth a close look when it appears.
What kind of buyer ends up in Ticaboo? ▾
Mostly people connected to Lake Powell, Bullfrog Marina, or the Henry Mountains — boaters who want a base 30 minutes from the water, hunters chasing the Henry Mountain bison and mule deer units, and remote workers who genuinely want isolation. It's not a commuter town. The nearest grocery run of any size is Hanksville (50+ miles) or Blanding.
Is financing a home in Ticaboo difficult? ▾
It can be. Comparable sales are scarce, which makes appraisals tricky, and some lenders shy away from rural Garfield County properties with limited comps. Local Utah lenders and credit unions familiar with Lake Powell-area real estate tend to be more workable than national banks. Cash offers carry real weight here.
What utilities and services should I expect on a Ticaboo 3/2? ▾
Water typically comes from the community system originally built for the uranium-era townsite, power is grid-connected through Garkane Energy, and propane handles heat and cooking on most properties. Cell service is limited — Starlink has become the standard for internet. Trash, mail, and emergency services all involve a drive.
How close is Lake Powell from a Ticaboo home? ▾
Bullfrog Marina sits about 12 miles south on Highway 276, roughly a 15-minute drive. That's the main draw — you can keep a boat slipped at Bullfrog and be on the water faster than people who own homes in Page or Big Water.
What price range should I plan for? ▾
Pricing swings widely because the sample size is so small. Modest 3-bed, 2-bath homes have traded in the low-to-mid $200s in recent years, while updated properties or those with extra acreage have pushed higher. Browse the active listings below for current numbers.
