4+ Bedroom Homes for Sale in Ticaboo, Utah
Ticaboo sits in southern Garfield County off Highway 276, about a dozen miles north of Bullfrog Marina on Lake Powell. It's one of the smallest and most remote communities in Utah — originally built in the late 1970s as a uranium mining townsite — and the housing inventory reflects that history. Four-bedroom homes here are rare, and when they come up they tend to be either larger custom builds on acreage with Henry Mountain views, or roomy manufactured homes set up to sleep big extended families and boating crews heading to the lake. Buyers shopping this size range in Ticaboo are usually after a recreation base camp rather than a daily-driver residence, since the nearest grocery store of any real size is over an hour away in Hanksville or further in Page.
Climate is high desert — hot dry summers in the upper 90s, mild winters, and very little snow compared to northern Utah. Most larger homes run on propane, private well or shared water, and septic, and reliable internet is typically Starlink or fixed wireless. The buyer pool skews toward Lake Powell enthusiasts, retirees wanting space and quiet, and remote workers willing to trade convenience for dark skies and red rock country. Because turnover is so low, it's worth setting up an alert and being ready to move quickly when something matches.

Common questions
About 4+ bedroom homes in Ticaboo.
How many 4-bedroom homes are typically for sale in Ticaboo? ▾
Inventory is extremely thin. Ticaboo is an unincorporated community of roughly 30-40 residences built originally for uranium mining, so it's common to see zero active listings for months at a time. When a 4-bedroom does hit the market, it usually goes through the Wayne County or Garfield County MLS feeds.
What kind of larger homes exist in Ticaboo? ▾
Most of the housing stock is single-story site-built homes and manufactured homes on acreage, with a handful of larger custom builds owned by Lake Powell regulars. True 4+ bedroom houses are often used as multi-family vacation bases or shared ownership properties for boating season.
Are these homes on well and septic? ▾
Yes. Ticaboo has its own small water system tied to the lodge/townsite, but many outlying parcels rely on private wells and septic. Buyers should budget for a septic inspection and verify water rights and culinary connection before closing.
How far is Ticaboo from Lake Powell and the nearest town? ▾
Bullfrog Marina sits about 12 miles south, which is the main draw for most buyers. Hanksville is roughly 45 miles north, and the closest full-service grocery and hospital are in Richfield or Page, Arizona — both well over two hours away.
Can a larger home in Ticaboo work as a short-term rental? ▾
It can, and proximity to Bullfrog and the Henry Mountains makes summer demand real, but the market is seasonal and the remote location limits turnover logistics. Check current Garfield County STR rules and factor in cleaning and management costs given the distance from any service provider.
Is financing available on Ticaboo properties? ▾
It's possible but harder than on the Wasatch Front. Appraisers struggle with comparables given the tiny sales volume, and some lenders won't touch manufactured homes or off-grid setups. Local credit unions and cash purchases are the most common paths to closing here.
